The Speakeasy Storyteller Series - (SF International Arts Festival)

“Storytelling is a fundamental part of being human. It helps us share information, create emotional connections, and understand one another.”

More than two decades ago, Abdul Kenyatta built upon a lifetime of story-telling experience. He founded a multi-generational and multi-cultural forum for supportive storytelling that has since spread throughout the San Francisco Bay Area.

SFIAF’s first presentation of the Speakeasy Storytellers came in 2019 at Fort Mason. Speakeasy Storytellers strives to put forward writers and artists who stand against injustice, corruption, and unchecked power making the two groups a match made in literary heaven.
