Join writer and storyteller Sylvia V. Linsteadt as she shares a rewoven telling of the story of the Swan Queen from the lands of both Lithuania and Russia.

At the far edge of the world, a swan woman hears the call of her true love and comes flying across the land and sea to meet him. In the heart of the kingdom, the king hears her song, but he has forgotten how to love without stealing, how to stay awake when she arrives. What will it take for them to find each other again, and for what has been broken in each of them to mend?

This is a story of the power of shapeshifting bird-women, of migration and coming home, of what it means for a man to seek the thrice tenth land, of the importance of wise (and sometimes terrifying) old women, and of the miraculous powers of the heart.

Our evening will be held in the radiant old-growth redwood rafters of St. Columba's church, nestled in the bay laurels and pines of the Point Reyes Peninsula, with the scent of Tomales Bay wafting up through the spring land...
