Open-mic StorySLAM 🎙 BRIDGES

🤝 Bridging Connections, Crossing Divides, Finding Your Way 🌟

Have you ever crossed a bridge—literal or metaphorical—that changed everything? Whether that bridge connected two spaces, two people, or two versions of yourself, we want to spotlight you and your story.

Thursday September, 11th, join us for an evening of true, personal tales about:

• The bridge that led to a new perspective and an amazing outcome
• A connection that provided the missing link (or closed a gap)
• The leap of faith that led to a success (or disappointment)
• The time when you went over a bridge too far

WHY BRIDGES?
Because a single connection can change a life. This month's theme, "Bridges," was chosen by our founding Association members, a testament to our mission of building a more connected, inclusive and supportive community, one story at a time. Come celebrate this milestone with us by bringing your own story or enjoying other storytellers’ entertaining tales.

HOW IT WORKS

• Prepare a 5-minute true story (no notes!) relating to the theme.
• Drop your name in the hat to tell it.
• If yours is drawn, take the stage—and own it!

No experience needed—just bring a story and open ears!

At the end of the night, the audience votes for their favorite storyteller. The winner takes home a cool prize and qualifies for our GrandSLAM—where the best storytellers of the year compete for the ultimate title!
