Everyone Has a Story to Tell

Are you ready to tell yours? In 2017, Mid-Continent Public Library’s Story Center partnered with Metropolitan Community College to offer a rigorous set of free workshops called the Storytelling Certification Program designed to take participants from the first spark of inspiration to a fully realized story.

Now, anyone at any point in their story journey has the opportunity to expand their skills as a writer or performer through this program. December 8, 2018, marked our first-ever graduation ceremony, which honored those that completed all of their required content. I am extremely proud of their accomplishments, and I’m excited to see what future stories they tell!
