Everyone has a story—what’s yours?Join us for Storytelling Night, a welcoming space where anyone and everyone is invited to share a 5–7 minute true story from their own life. Whether it’s heartfelt, hilarious, or totally unexpected, your story matters—and we want to hear it.
This Month’s Theme:
"It left me speechless..."
Thinking of sharing a story? Here are a few simple guidelines to help you prepare:
1. Tell your own story. This should be your experience, not someone else’s or something fictional.
2. Stay on theme. Keep your story connected to this month’s topic.
3. Keep it between 5–7 minutes. Respect everyone’s time so more voices can be heard.
4. Be respectful. Please don’t ridicule or attempt to explain cultures that aren’t your own.
5. No hate speech. Racism, misogyny, homophobia, or any form of hate is not welcome here.
Some quick tips:
- This isn’t story reading, it’s story telling. Speak from the heart like you’re talking to close friends over coffee.
- Know your story well. Practice so you can stay within the time limit.
- Grab attention from the start. A strong opening line goes a long way.
- Have a clear ending. Know where you’re going and stick the landing.
- Most of all, enjoy it! Your story is powerful.
- Want a little extra prep? Come 20 minutes early for helpful storytelling tips and encouragement.
Whether you come to tell or to listen, we’d love to have you. See you there!
