2008 Fairytales 10

On behalf of the Fairy Tales Presentation Society, we wish to thank each and every one of you for making our tenth anniversary the most successful festival on record! We’re going to take a long nap and then get right back into organizing Fairy Tales 11 as well as our brand new, Fairy Tales Presents: Once Upon A Month screening series which aims to keep the community spirit of the festival alive and well all year round. Keep checking back to our website this summer to see what we’re up to next.
