Library Programs for all ages…
“Over the years, I've learned that storytelling is a powerful way to connect diverse audiences of all ages. It cuts through the distractions of social media and is the antidote to AI.”
— Mark Binder

Year-round and summer programming
for families, young people, and adults
Summer Reading • Silly Stories for Spring • Autumn/Spooky • Family Stories • A Holiday Present • Jewish Folktales • Tall Tales • Stories for Peace • Camp and Campfire Stories • Loki Ragnarok and more
Mark’s programs can be targeted for families, younger audiences, or older children – even adults! And will always adjust based on the age group on the event’s date.
Every program is adapted to be appropriate to the ages of the audience who show up on the day of the event.
With younger groups it's storytelling and song.
With older or mixed audiences, weaving a blend of reading, storytelling, song, and Q/A, Mark captures attention and takes young and older readers on a journey with imagination. Everyone is transported.
Mark's programs are typically 45 minutes long.
He has both indoor and outdoor sound systems available.
(RI Artists Educators • NH Kids Books and the Arts • NY BOCES • Creative Ground and more.)
