A crafted, well told story is part gift, part message. In
this workshop led by storyteller Kate Lawrence, participants will learn how to
find, craft and tell stories from their life experience. You will learn story
structure, how to look for story worthy memories and the crafting process that
turns the clay of life into story. Participants will develop a list of possible
story memories, choose one to develop, work in small groups to practice, and
then tell and receive feedback from the group. And of course you will hear lots
of great stories. Numbers for this workshop are limited to six.
