story circleS
VOICES Story Circles are facilitated gatherings where community members come together to share personal stories, listen deeply, and build meaningful connection. Guided by thoughtful prompts, Story Circles create a welcoming space where every voice is valued and participants can experience empathy, understanding, and belonging through the power of storytelling.
REAL STORIES, REAL PEOPLE, real impact.
At VOICES, storytelling is how we build community. Through our programs In School, In Community, and On Stage, we create space for people to be heard, honored, and remembered. We do this by providing a page, a canvas, a microphone, and a stage, to discover the layers of humanity within us and the community. Join us in bringing these stories to life.
