9:30am start – we begin our journey into storytelling and harvesting and who we all are exploring participatory practices across the day 

We Include mini breaks (10-15 mins) and a lunch break (45 mins) finishing the day at 4pm 

Storytelling and capturing stories are important tools for communication, connection and progress. Not only do they help us tell the story behind data, they connect us as humans and can take place anywhere and anytime.  

By understanding how we connect to a story, helps us understand people’s connection to place, history, self and culture.  

Storytelling connects us in the moment and harvesting enables the stories to live on.  

Although many believe that storytelling and harvesting is a unique skill reserved for elders, writers, artists or children, anyone can be a storyteller.  

This workshop is for anyone interested in building their ability to capture and tell stories, work better with data and build community capacity for telling their story.
