Interested in hearing stories or learning the art of telling? A great way to begin is by joining one of the many storytelling groups throughout the state. Meetings are open to listeners and storytellers of all levels of experience. Some groups conduct workshops that address aspects of storytelling or hone telling skills. Many meetings have swaps, where individuals share stories with other members. All groups have storytellers who are available for paid engagements. Check the Folk Project calender for events and links. if you have any general questions about these groups or FP storytelling events, please send an email to the FP Storytelling Committee at .
