Storytellers, wow us at Story Slam! Share a tale or cheer your friends on Tuesday, April 12 at 7 p.m. The format is similar to NPR’s The Moth where each participant tells a true tale in five minutes.
The theme is rich: PARENTS.

Advance registration is required on the Milton Library’s website, www.miltonlibrary.org A $10 fee from all attendees will be collected at the door. Doors open at 6:30 p.m.
There will be a limit of 10 storytellers. Performers, sign up upon arrival and names will be drawn randomly. Prizes!
The champion will go on to perform at the Grand Slam Story Slam on May 7, 2016 at 6:30 p.m. at the Fuller Craft Museum in Brockton. Visit www.fullercraft.org for more information.
