OCTOBER THEME: FIRSTS
Prepare a five-minute story that takes us back to where it all began. Ask yourself the question "What came first?" Share your experiences of the first day on the job, the thrill of a first love, or the unexpected twists that come with discovering unexplored paths. From the very first steps we take to the monumental milestones that mark new chapters, we want to hear your stories. Together, let's relive the unforgettable, and sometimes uncomfortable, “firsts" that have left an indelible mark on our journeys.
HOW IT WORKS
If you'd like to share a story during the event, let us know by hitting "interested" in your ticket purchase AND let us know when you arrive at the event. Throughout the evening, you'll get to know all the other attendees through facilitated interactive activities, share and hear stories around the theme of FIRSTS. There will be 5 storytellers - we hope you'll choose to be one of them! Remember, this is a casual, safe, and fun place to share and play.
NOT TELLING A STORY?
If you're not sharing a story on the stage, that's ok too! We welcome listeners and learners in our audience. That said - the magic of our spaces come from everyone in the room. Be ready to participate in other ways.
THE FINE PRINT
All guests must RSVP and purchase a ticket individually – no +1s admitted. Tickets are non-refundable. Please have your RSVP confirmation email available at the door for a smooth check-in.
ABOUT US
Our mission is to facilitate human connection through spaces enriched by storytelling. Our core belief is that no one knows everything, and everyone knows something. Each space is carefully curated to evoke empathy and elevate marginalized voices. We invite you to pull up a chair, listen deeply, and share with humility. All hearts are welcome.
Our story series is inspired by The Moth's StorySlam.
