Today we had a visit from a very special guest who may know more about particular aspects of Brer Rabbit's history that WE do!

Maia who is a student at @furmanuniversity came by to interview our museum administrator Rebekah and video tape a storytelling performance from @deborahstrahorn , one of the Kuumba Do-Tell Wren's Nest Ramblers for a class she is taking. SO much fun to talk to a young person who is such a fan of all the stories we tell. She hopes to work for Imagineering someday, maybe she will help us unlock access to Song of the South for our dream of a screening and panel discussion. Thanks Maia for being a super fan!
