In this project-based workshop, participants focus on the heart of StoryCenter’s approach to narrative - developing your story in community.
During the 2-session workshop, participants will engage with StoryCenter’s participatory storytelling methods. They will come together with a community of storytellers to develop a short, compelling personal narrative.
Participants will:
Learn about StoryCenter’s storytelling Seven Steps Framework.
Share a story with participants in a facilitated story circle and receive feedback,

Hone their chosen personal narrative.
