About the event
“Everybody’s Got a Story”, but how does one go about telling the story? And how does one make the story worth hearing for small and large groups? The Hampton Storytelling Festival offers workshops for those wanting to learn how to craft and present stories through its Storytelling Academy sessions, July 15 – 18, 2024. Your organization can schedule a 1.5 – 4 hour storytelling session with a local or regional accomplished storyteller for either morning, afternoon or evening. Storytelling Academy sessions are ages 3rd to Seniors, and are adjusted by age and experience. There is a charge for the Storytelling Academy, however, in some cases we may be able to assist in finding some subsidies for attendees. Email to schedule your organization’s Storytelling Academy session as soon as possible (Jay Johnson, Janice.johnsonva@gmail.com, or, Sheila Arnold, sheilaarnold39@aol.com) Remember, “Everybody’s Got a Story” – Let us help you tell yours!
