Everyone and everything has a story. Storytelling can be used to preserve culture and instill moral values. Histories have been passed on through story since the beginning of time. The storyteller’s education comes as he studies, writes, practices and then performs stories that include plot, characters and the narrative point of view. Education comes to listeners as they contemplate the characters in the story and draw conclusions from the plight of others. Storytelling is important in all of our lives. Students from K to 12th grade are invited to speak on the theme of, “FREEDOM.”  Entry deadline is November 14, 2016.

We are seeking original, creative video presentations on the theme of, “FREEDOM.”  Entry deadline is November 14, 2016. We encourage you to think outside of the box.
