Hi Everyone,

I want to share with you a quick bit of wonderful news that came my way. Maryanne Moorman, one of our regular tellers, was just given the 2019 Seattle Living Legacy Award. Did you know we had such esteemed artists in our midst? Me neither!

Maryanne is a pioneering storyteller in Seattle (among many other things) and has been a big supporter of FGS. She also runs her own story show at the Olive Way Starbucks on the last Thursday of each month (which is two days from now.)

If you’d like to congratulate her or see the cool people who perform at her show, head on down to Olive Way this Thursday.

Here’s the link to the award:
