Monthly meetings - 2007

We gather at the Brantford Public Library, Colborne Street at 7 p.m. on the first Wednesday evening of each month. Please check below for monthly date and theme. Visitors are welcome to participate by listening or telling. There is no charge for admission.

Storytellers learn to tell by telling stories. Guild meetings provide a safe, supportive environment in which tellers at all levels can practise their stories and ask for advice from their listeners. Listener response guides the teller in ways to improve both story and performance.

Each meeting has a story theme (see below). Meetings also include learning sessions and discussions about storytelling.
