Located in the large gallery space.

This class will cover all aspects of preparing and presenting compelling stories. We will use Kendal Haven’s Eight Elements of Effective Stories from his book Story Smart as touchstones for the classes which will be highly interactive. Participants will be expected to contribute during every class. After a few months we will be able to host a storytelling evening with stories created during the class. All classes will be free of charge, but participants may want to purchase copies of the books that are used in the course. Participants are encouraged to attend multiple classes, but this is not a requirement of participation.

Classes are free and are *regularly* held on the third Tuesday of every month.
