For more than 60 years, children have gathered around the Hans Christian Andersen statue near Central Park’s Conservatory Pond to hear Andersen’s and others’ fairy tales and other stories told by a master company of storytellers. Today, you can hear the Japanese tall tale “Three Strong Women” and Freya Littledale’s folk tale “The Magic Fish.” Jul. 30, 11 a.m.-noon. This event is free. The Conservatory Pond is just north of the 72nd St. & Fifth Ave. park entrance.
