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. Knowledge of family history has even been linked to better teen behavior and mental health. 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. This program is sponsored by the New Hampshire Humanities and is free and open to the public.

Please note that this is a workshop that will run for about 90 minutes and will not be recorded for later viewing.
