On May 9th, your Board launched an exciting initiative aimed at extending NSN’s reach, attracting new members, and making our flagship publication, Storytelling Magazine, even better.

Immediately, we stumbled. The crash was instantaneous, and deafening.

The seeds of that crash were planted well before the event. We were unaware of our mis-step until it brought us to a standstill. Nevertheless, it behooves us to examine the steps that led to this situation and – most importantly – to rectify them...

Great news!

We have extended our early registration rate for the 2018 National Storytelling Summit to June 20, 2018! Our unbelievable registration prices are still at their lowest rate but only for a few more weeks!

For the third year, BBC is asking people with disabilities to submit their personal stories for possible telling at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Those selected will work with a top comedy script producer, then perform their story at the Festival. The topic this year is “Going Out”.

Upcoming events for the next 10 days are listed by region below. Or you can click the button to see the full NSN calendar.
