Tell stories, listen, play, and write! Take part in engaging, interactive storytelling and writing activities led by drama artist, educator, story gatherer and community arts enthusiast Melanie Fernandez-Alvarez. Exchange your stories and celebrate the hidden stories of everyday. This workshop is developed for individuals 18 and up.

Melanie’s work is inspired by objects, text, poetry, words, pictures, places… experiences that connect, inform, inspire, educate and celebrate stories. Armed with her drama background she shapes the process of creating and performing artwork through experiential techniques, self-expression and inclusive practices. Currently, Melanie’s focus is on bringing groups together to tell and listen to everyday stories.
