Telling personal and family stories is fun - and much more. Storytelling connects strangers, strengthens links between generations, and gives children the self knowledge to carry them through hard times.

In this active and interactive program, storyteller Jo Radner shares foolproof ways to mine memories and interview relatives for meaningful stories. Participants practice finding, developing, and telling their own tales.
