It’s a pink summer evening. We’re up in the sky, levitating above the city in a high rise. The room is quiet except for one person’s voice and the suspense of riveted listening…
to the English businessman trying to negotiate swimming naked at a business gathering,
the American woman, hated in a developing country by her housekeeper,
the teenager whose name made him invisible,
the soft spoken intuitive finding his voice in a singing class full of tears.
So many combinations of humanity
That was our first Story Telling Party. It was so magical, we’re doing it again.
The Story Telling Party’s sole motive is to sit in a room together and tell and listen to stories. It’s in hearing each other’s stories our worlds open up, or collide, or get smaller. Stories, it occurs to me as I write this, are like lungs. They breathe us in, they breathe us out, nourished. Informed. Curious. Sated. Connected.
Please come!
The Story Telling Party is Friday, Jan 13, at 6:30pm in Portland.
SPACE IS LIMITED. In order to manage headcount, you must have an invitation to come.
To get yours, click here to sign up for the invite list. And once the invites go out, RSVP early to reserve your spot.
Please join us! The way the stories get told, each party is a different experience.
It won’t be the same without you.
