Odyssey Storytelling series

The popular Odyssey Storytelling Series presents Borders: Cross-Cultural stories about living with the customs, arts and social institutions of a nation, people or social group other than your own i.e. a different language group,ãa different gender,ãliving or working abroad, being an immigrant in the US . . .

You'll hear six people tell ten-minute personal stories on the theme. Visit our website to see who's telling. The stories are not read or memorized, they are personal stories from the creativity of the teller.

Have dinner at the Cup Cafe (reservations recommended: 798-1618) in the historic Hotel Congress OR at the new Maynards Market and Kitchen on Toole Ave in the Historic Train Depot (reservations recommended: 545-0577), and make an evening out of it! Free parking on the street after 5 p.m.

Storytelling is a way to make connections with diverse and different people that you may not meet in your everyday life. Because people are telling stories from their lives they may be amazing, messy, enlightening, disturbing, profound and entertaining. Our storytellers have guidelines but they are uncensored
