Welcome to Queer Story Nights!

In 2024, the Centre for Stories will be hosting queer storytelling nights every month at Centre for Stories for the LGBTQIA+ community to share and craft stories.

Every month, group members will have the opportunity to learn the craft of oral storytelling, and/or work on their writing, in a safe and supportive space.

Join the group’s facilitators in November Mim Kempson and Jay Anderson for a meet and greet to learn more, and connect with other queer storytellers and writers in the community. Cheese and wine provided.
