Tell Your Own Story

Participants listen, laugh, and linger over memories of their lives. In telling our own stories, we discover our uniqueness, as well as our common ground. Inspired by the importance of preserving and sharing our history during the 250th anniversary of the signing of America’s Declaration of Independence, Priscilla Howe’s presentation is a hands-on workshop for Kansans interested in becoming storytellers for their own families, communities, or as preservers of Kansas’s wide range of dynamic folk traditions.
Priscilla Howe is a storyteller and facilitator of storytelling workshops.
This event is made possible by Humanities Kansas as part of “By the People: Beyond 250,” an initiative of the Federation of State Humanities Councils and the Smithsonian Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage.
This program is free and open to the public!
