'Eleven one-of-a-kind award-winning Once Upon A Nation Storytelling Benches are scattered all over Philadelphia's Historic District, telling riveting stories of our nation's history in the places where they actually happened. Specially-trained, uniformed storytellers delight and entertain with free, short 5-minute stories while sharing the secrets of Philadelphia's and America's history. Children can pick up a Story Flag at any storytelling bench, then collect a star from every storyteller on their journey. Flags with all the stars can be redeemed at the Historic Philadelphia Center, Franklin Square, or the Betsy Ross House for a History Hero Certificate and a free carousel ride.Memorial Day Weekend, May 26 – 28: 11 am - 4 pmSaturday & Sunday, June 2 – 3: 11 am - 4 pmJune 9 - July 31: 11 am - 4 pm, dailyThroughout Philadelphia's Historic District, FREE'
