Do you have a story about that epic family road trip you took in middle school? Or perhaps your story looks more like something out of National Lampoon's Vacation? Tell it at our Story Slam! Participants will get 5 minutes to tell our audience their best or worst family vacation story. Fill out our submission form to secure your spot. Presentations will be given on a first come, first serve basis and content must be appropriate for all audiences.
Story Slams give storytellers an outlet for their tales and build community among listeners. We expect a variety of stories with emotion, humor and connection.
