Storytelling gives us moments of beauty, magic, joy, and profound emotion. As humans we are story creators, story tellers, and story listeners. There will always be a need for the true storyteller, someone who can tell a story face-to-face in real time and make a difference by doing so. Story is as intrinsic, inherent, and essential to our species as language or walking upright.

About The Storytelling Institute

The South Mountain Community College Storytelling Institute is at the center of a community of storytellers who gather to tell and hear stories of all kinds. The Institute offers foundational and advanced classes in storytelling as part of a program that leads to an Academic Certificate in Storytelling. These classes are open to anyone interested in storytelling and most have no prerequisites. Members of the storytelling faculty, storytelling students, and community storytellers also offer storytelling events throughout the year. For more information contact Liz Warren, 602-243-8026 or at liz.warren@smcmail.maricopa.edu   South Mountain Community College, one of the ten Maricopa Community Colleges, is located at 7050 S. 24th Street in Phoenix, just north of Baseline Road.
