We hear a story from storyteller Ana Holguin at our most recent Pop-Up Stories event.

Our last Pop-Up Stories of the year was in September at REACH Studio Art Center. The theme was “Turning Over a New Leaf.”

With Halloween around the corner, we thought we’d share Ana Holguin's story. She described a scary tale she was told during childhood. A word of warning, it is a bit of a disturbing tale. Holguin shares how she came to look at it very differently as an adult.
