Intertwined 2021: Storytelling Workshop & Call for Artists
https://blogs.uoregon.edu/intertwined/
Event Description:
The University of Oregon will have an amazing opportunity this Spring to
explore the power of storytelling. We would love for you, your friends,
students, and colleagues to be a part of it! In its fifth year,
“Intertwined 2021: A UO Listening Event” will be exploring the theme
“Chances”.
We are kicking off this year’s event on Tuesday, February 2nd and
Wednesday, February 10th with a fun, low-stress, free storytelling
workshop from 6:30-8:30PM. Both workshops will cover the same content
and be held virtually.
To RSVP: https://dos.uoregon.edu/rfl
All members of the UO community are welcome, and no previous
storytelling or theater experience is required. There’s also no need to
have a story in mind or commit to telling a story as part of the virtual
event premiering in May. The workshop will offer a space to learn about
the art of storytelling and practice crafting your own narrative. We
also hope participants will begin to see the many ways storytelling can
be useful in connecting with others in more professional settings.
Storytelling is a process and everyone is a “Storyteller,” there’s no
right or wrong way to do it, and powerful stories can come from even the
smallest moments.
