The KZN Museum will be running a Storytelling Festival over September and October. The education department will be taking the festival out to primary schools, with the first visit to Braemar Primary School located in Umzinto on the KZN South Coast, later this month.
The Museum's Storytelling Festival was first launched in 2020 and the purpose is to preserve oral history, celebrating the art of storytelling as the oldest form of teaching and learning.
This year the festival will feature a singer and guitarist, Bambanani Bhengu. The aim is to highlight that stories can be told in so many different ways. Visual art, poetry, music, and acting are all essential in storytelling and the learners can expect to be entertained and enjoy listening to some amazing stories. Our resident storyteller is Siboniso Isazi Gcumisa, (Heritage, Symbols & Cultural History Intern).
