The National Storytelling Conference
 |
The conference logo includes the Akan “Sankofa” mythical bird, which looks backward to reflect while moving forward. It reminds us to take the best wisdom of the past so we can reach our full potential in the future. |
The National Storytelling Conference brings together National Storytelling Network (NSN) members, as well as individuals and organizations from the community, who are interested in the art and application of storytelling. Members and non-members present material appealing to attendees’ variety of interests and developmental needs.
2012 National Storytelling Conference
The 2012 National Storytelling Conference will take place June 28-July 1, 2012 at the Cincinnati Marriott at River Center. Hotel rooms at special reduced prices for conference attendees will be available beginning July 15, 2011.
The 2011 special NSN member registration has closed. 2012 online conference registration will be available soon! The full conference (Thursday evening opening ceremony through Sunday closing) early bird rate will be valid through April 30, 2012 and is $330 for adults and $255 for seniors (65+) and students (w/picture id). Wednesday and Thursday pre-conferences and master classes will have an additional fee.
This will be “A Conference to Remember!” – a theme with double-meaning, proposed by Willy Claflin (and Maynard!) to honor all our storytelling heroes who have passed on as well as one focused on our learning for the future. We hope you’ll save the dates and watch for more news to come about this exciting storytelling gathering!
