Program Description

Event Details

This workshop is both in person and via Zoom. 

You have a wealth of incredible stories in you. Join host Marc Moss of Tell Us Something as he guides you on a journey of finding your own story. Marc will help you shape that verbal story into one you can share with the class group. We will learn about the sense of place in a story through observation of the natural surroundings, learn about story arc, and learn how to better speak in front of a crowd. The workshop is open to all ages and abilities.

Please register on our calendar; you will receive a Zoom link in your confirmation email.  You may also attend in person in our community room, with a mask and distancing in place.  Marc will join us via Zoom.
