Storytelling circle
Thursday Jan 9 6-7:30PM

In a society increasingly divided and isolated, storytelling can bring us together. Story Jam is a bi-monthly story circle where community members get to know each other through unrehearsed 5-minute true stories from their own life. This month's prompt: "Speaking up!" (for inspiration only! Off-theme stories welcome as well)
