ONLINE ONLY: Becoming Baba Yaga

October 22 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

Registration is required. 

Whether you know “Baba Yaga” as a Slavic witch, earth goddess, or monster in modern media, she is a force with secrets to divulge. Her roots stretch back millennia, and her chicken-legged hut is only the beginning of her intrigue. Darkness, fear, and instability inundate our daily lives, but the folktales of Baba Yaga speak to the dichotomy of our existence—the hope and the horror, the magic and the mundane.

Kris Spisak, author of Becoming Baba Yaga (nonfiction) and The Baba Yaga Mask (fiction), knows stories that linger have something to teach us, and Baba Yaga tales do not disappoint.
