Who We Are

 

This Celebration of Tales grew directly from a storytelling workshop at the Center led by Charmaine Crowell-White that John Alexander took, along with a dozen aspiring storytellers. For John, this experience revived warm memories of a thriving storytelling scene in Charlottesville that found powerful expression in a successful weekend-long Fall Festival of Tales held through the 1980s. Charlottesville needs to revive a storytelling festival that will boost our ongoing community-building. We need you to help us make it so!

 

Soon after Charmaine led that workshop, we organized a working group, determined to launch this Celebration of Tales on June 10, 2023.
