ART AND LEADERSHIP FOR ADULTS: Stories of Your Ancestors: Rediscover the Art of Oral Storytelling

Folk tales, myths, fables, legends… What do you need to know to tell a good story? This workshop will draw on proven memoir exercises to get you writing, then offer several basic storytelling techniques and performance tips. The storyteller's basic props are voice, gesture, and sound, so you want to use them all for maximum effect. The workshop requires no experience, but is also worthwhile for seasoned writers. Lauren Camp studied oral interpretation of literature at Emerson College. The author of This Business of Wisdom (West End Press, 2010), Lauren writes about poetry daily on the blog Which Silk Shirt (www.laurencamp.com/whichsilkshirt), and produces and hosts “Audio Saucepan” for Santa Fe Public Radio.
