Meet other local Storytellers and all those who enjoy the art of Story Telling! Inspired by The Moth http://www.themoth.org/podcast Let's gather together and practice the ancient art of story telling.

It is how we shake off the turmoil of daily life an …

I started this group to get together with others once a week in Olympia to crochet or knit and enjoy coffee/tea/cider/cocoa...cupcakes!

We have two meetup locations: *OLY Bonjour Cupcakes, in downtown Ol …

Former Dupont Knitters are welcome to join us or I suggest the Olympia group as another alternative: Oly Yarncraft In rural Pierce County, most other crafting groups are at inconveniet distances, locations, or times.
