Kearney Area Storytelling Festival to Visit Buffalo Hills!

Buffalo Hills Elementary is excited to welcome featured storytellers from The Kearney Storytelling Festival on February 6th. This special visit will give students the chance to experience live storytelling that sparks imagination, laughter, and a love of stories.

Our K–2 students will listen to Lynette (Lyn) Ford, a nationally and internationally recognized storyteller, author, and teaching artist. A two-time recipient of the National Storytelling Network’s ORACLE Award, Lyn shares stories rooted in her childhood and Affrilachian culture, creating meaningful and engaging experiences for young audiences.

Our 3–5 grade students will enjoy Paul Strickland, a professional storyteller and theatre artist from Kentucky. Known for his energetic style and creative tales, Paul has been featured at major storytelling festivals across the country and brings humor and imagination to every performance.

For more information about the storytellers, including when they’ll be having public performances in Kearney, you can visit the Kearney Area Storytelling Festival website.
