Annual Storytelling Festival

About This Event

This annual event brings both locally based and nationally known story tellers to The Ark stage. This year’s story tellers are Adam Booth, Jennifer Munro, Barbara Schutzgruber, and Steve Daut.

What to Expect

• 1.Arrive a bit early to snag a good seat and settle in; The Ark's intimate, theater-style setup rewards arriving before showtime.
• 2.You'll hear four tellers this year—Adam Booth, Jennifer Munro, Barbara Schutzgruber, and Steve Daut—so expect a mix of voices and storytelling styles.
• 3.Keep your phone silent and avoid recording unless the performers say it's okay; a lot of storytelling thrives on attentive listening.
• 4.Downtown Ann Arbor parking can be tight; give yourself extra time and consider nearby garages or street parking on Main Street.
• 5.If you’re new to storytelling events, a short post-show Q&A or mingling segment is common, so stay for a few minutes after if you’re curious.
