Storytellers is open to everyone -- storytellers as well as dedicated listeners. Our goal is to cultivate the oral traditions of
storytelling in a supportive and positive environment. Most people tell stories
about themselves but they can be about other people, a place or a happening.
Stories affirm who we are and allow us to experience the similarities between
ourselves and others. Please join us for an entertaining morning of
storytelling in a warm and comfortable setting.
Storytelling is core to the human experience. When was the last time you could sit back, relax, and let someone else do the reading? Join us for 30-40 minutes to listen to a story with a discussion to follow.
This program is over the phone – no computer knowledge is required. Please register online, call 778-658-6394, or email access@orl.bc.ca to receive the conference line phone number and access code.
