The last three years were an absolute blast. Stories were shared, new friendships were formed, and good times were had.
Our guarantee: You will be valued, respected, included, and treated as an equal your entire time with us. Whether you've been professionally telling stories for decades or this retreat marks your first foray into formal storytelling, we consider you a kindred spirit and colleague.
We don't care what kind of storyteller you are or hope to become. Personal narrative teller? Video game designer? Folktale fan? Journalist? Juggler? It's all storytelling to us.

Hope you can join us! Don't sleep on this, as it will fill quickly. We have already confirmed 50 of our 120 spots.
