The acclaimed storytelling nonprofit The Moth will be in Brooklyn Heights for a very special event. Experience the stories you know and love at the Moth Mainstage event live at St. Ann & Holy Trinity Church on Wednesday, March 20. The show will feature a night of five stories themed around finding unexpected beauty in life’s transitions in celebration of The Moth’s new book, “A Point of Beauty: True Stories of Holding On and Letting Go,” debuting March 19, 2024. Five storytellers will take the stage to share tales of finding real beauty in moments when our lives change forever — for better or for worse. The Moth will feature stories from local New York-based storytellers Muneesh Jain and Mindy Raf as well as Brian Jeansome, Donald Harrison, Becky Chan, and host Amber Wallin.

Books are Magic will be on-site selling copies of “A Point of Beauty.” The doors at St. Ann & Holy Trinity, on the corner of Clinton and Montague Sts., open at 6:30 p.m. and stories begin at 7:30 p.m.
