Stories on Tap
The CommUnity Zone is thrilled to announce a new and exciting partnership with Stories on Tap!"
Stories on Tap has been producing storytelling events in the Susquehanna Valley for over a decade and leading workshops to help community members talk about their experiences publicly. The program was launched in January 2011 as a forum for the community to share lived experiences, upholding the belief that authentic, well-told stories can open hearts and change the world.
Stories on Tap events are open to everyone and focused on a specific theme. Audience members who have prepared a story on the theme sign up to share a true story. For the CommUnity Zone events, storytellers will not be judged and the events will not be competitive; there may be participation prizes available. Proposed themes will be decided on in the future, and participants are always welcome to interpret the storytelling theme as broadly as they would like; it may be taken literally or figuratively. We recommend that stories be pivotal moments of change or revelation in the storytellers’ lives.
Storytelling workshops will be offered free of charge to interested community members leading up to the event(s). Group workshops will be offered in addition to individual coaching sessions for those who prefer to work one-on-one while crafting their stories. All interested community members are encouraged to attend the workshops to help in the development of their stories.
