Story Speak Easy
Story Speak Easy
Every third Tuesday from 6:30-8:30 pm
Come experience the magic of storytelling at our free, monthly Story Speak Easy, where everyone’s story is welcome!
The Story Speak Easy evening starts with 45 minutes of stories from invited tellers. Then, after a short break, we open the mike to anyone who’d like to share a family friendly story. And, out of consideration for all our tellers, please keep your story under seven minutes.
Just want to listen to stories? Great! Every storyteller needs a listener.
Best of all, you can attend Story Speak Easy in person or on Zoom. Here’s how:
