FREE Storytelling Workshop at Edison Library Branch at 18400 Joy Rd – Detroit, MI

Edison Library Branch is partnering with The Stories of Us this fall to provide storytelling workshops that help Detroiters share their stories about the Detroit Public Library system. Participants receive a $20 gift card upon completion. Each story will be archived on an innovative speech-to-story online platform as part of a larger campaign to collect 250 stories across Detroit. This effort aims to expand whose stories are told and who gets to tell them — in the pursuit of a more just America for all as we mark this nation's 250th birthday.

PLEASE NOTE: For participants who speak Arabic dialects, there will be multi-lingual Storytellers and Translators present to guide you through the process.

Due to limitations, we cannot allow entry into the workshop for individuals more than 15 minutes late.

The Stories of Us is a storytelling organization with a single, powerful belief at its heart: the stories we tell shape the nation we live in.
