Free storytelling workshops once a month.
You are welcome to join us!
🌟Every month we'll have a different workshop leader and a new subject. Many leaders are internationally known and renowned within the storytelling community. More detail about the workshops below.
👥 Some sessions are practical (standing up and joining in with new skills). Others are mostly discussion-based.
☕🍪We will be providing free teas and biscuits/crackers at ALL workshops from January 2025.
👀You can come and sit quietly and observe if you want to find out more before you join in.
