Make the words inviting.
A vivid performance can offer a reason to listen again, ask a question or reach for the book.
An invitation to contribute
Storyteller Sessions invites performers, creators, cultural voices and supporters to help children discover the joy of stories. Start with one contribution that fits you.
One story. Your craft. A world of possibility.
There is a place for your contribution
You don’t have to be the person reading.
A story needs voices, craft, context, care—and people who open doors.

Begin with a skill, an introduction or an idea.
Explore all ways to helpThe session at the heart of it
The idea begins with an expressive telling. Thoughtful imagery, sound and words can help make the story a place to listen, imagine and return to.
See how a first session takes shapeWhy it is worth making
Our purpose is to invite curiosity—about reading, about language, and about lives beyond a child’s own.
A vivid performance can offer a reason to listen again, ask a question or reach for the book.
Voices carry rhythm, identity and place. Stories deserve the context of the people they come from.
Performers, artists and cultural storytellers can make meaningful work together, with children at its center.
A first contribution
You can explore one reading, one creative brief, one piece of advice or one useful introduction.
Tell us what you enjoy doing and what your schedule allows. Together, we can explore a specific contribution, the preparation it needs and the terms that make it clear.
The longer possibility
A meaningful experience may lead to a new voice, a thoughtful introduction or another story worth keeping.
A possible path, never an expectation. The larger library and interactive experiences are the vision we are working toward.
