About the presenter
Cindy Campbell-Stone
Cindy is a storyteller, singer and performer from Nova Scotia with family roots in Prince Edward Island. She has been telling stories to audiences of all ages for over forty years. Cindy likes to include songs or rhymes in her performances and has been known to add musical surprises in her stories.
For thirty-two years, Cindy was a program planner for youth at Halifax Public Libraries. She developed many programs including an oracy and literacy based program called Shake, Rattle and Read for pre-readers and their parents. She developed an educational entertainment business called StorySong Express. Cindy performed musical, puppetry and storytelling programs aimed at preschoolers and school-aged children. She also presented many workshops to teachers, librarians and early childhood educators.
There are so many performances and stories in Cindy’s repertoire that it is difficult to list them all. She enjoys telling in festivals and conferences, concerts and open mic’s, schools and preschools, seniors centres and community centres, libraries and museums. She can be flexible and versatile as she once performed in a Yert, and on the back of a flat-bed tractor trailer!
Cindy has hosted programs and given workshops and performances for the following organizations where she is also a proud member: Storytellers of Canada-Conteurs du Canada, Storytellers Circle of Halifax, Helen Creighton Folklore Society, Dartmouth Heritage Museum, Cole Harbour Farm Heritage Museum, and the Writers Federation of Nova Scotia. In 2005, Cindy was storyteller on tour for the Canadian Children’s Book Centre and Storytellers of Canada-Conteurs du Canada.
