If you know of any storytelling or story-related events open to the public,
We officially split off the Virtual Storytelling Email List from this original Utah Storytelling Events Email List.
Story Crossroads has many resources besides this free email list. Support us even more and enjoy many benefits including exclusive content and connections (articles, e-workbooks, Zoom hangouts), discounts with businesses, and reduced prices for Story Crossroads offerings like the upcoming Story Crossroads Academy with self-led tuition-based online storytelling courses. A full listing is found at storycrossroads.org/member.
We will launch the Story Crossroads Academy, self-led online storytelling courses, on April 1, 2021. The Basics Storytelling Course takes about 8 hours to complete and is free to anyone. More details will be shared as it approaches. Meanwhile, please enjoy the 9 1/2 video above on the fundraising to include
American Sign Language with this course. You can donate here: tinyurl.com/donateforASL-SC or go to the homepage at http://www.storycrossroads.org.
