About the event
The inaugural event of this storytelling season on Saturday, June 21, is a StorySlam with true tales told by local storytellers. Participants will have five minutes to woo the audience and the judges – this is competitive. Cash prizes will be awarded at the end of the evening to the top three storytellers.
Stories must be true, and something that happened to you, not anyone else.
The story may be comedic or serious.
The story should have a beginning, a middle, and an end.
No notes or props allowed. Stories must be told from memory and not read.
No politics, bullying, or harassment of any type are allowed.
