(Courtesy Photo) nounces the fourth annual “Sunset, Storytelling and Stargazing” event on Waitt’s Mount to be held Saturday, September 7 (weather permitting) from 6–10 p.m. The community is invited to the top of Waitt’s Mount in Malden to watch the sunset, hear storytelling and gaze at the stars with the help of the North Shore Amateur Astronomy Club, the Amateur Telescope Makers of Boston and Lynn #popscope. Professional children’s storyteller Sharon Kennedy will begin telling stories at 6:30, as the sun starts to set. Parents with young children may want to stay only for the storytelling portion, but are welcome to stay longer. At 7:15, there will be “Stories Only You Can Tell,” featuring adults telling stories of personal experience, under the direction of local author and spoken word artist CD Collins. This will be followed by live acoustic music from Neal Itzler and Larry Terry, both associated with Berklee College. Stargazing will begin after twilight at around 7:45. Several telescopes will be set up for viewing, with the club astronomers serving as guides to the night sky. Malden Reads is celebrating its 10th anniversary of promoting literacy and a love of reading and building community in Malden and is pleased to partner with O’Malley for this event. In case of inclement weather (or skies that are too cloudy for viewing), an alternative date will be announced.
