All the Details

Middlesex County and the Public Outreach and Engagement Team (POET) at Rutgers University are working with coLAB Arts to provide residents of Middlesex County the opportunity to participate in a FREE storytelling workshop!

 What is it?  This storytelling workshop will bring participants together in a supportive and fun atmosphere to learn the techniques of personal narrative storytelling.  Participants will use inspiration from their own lives and personal experiences to craft and share a story under the guidance of experienced coLAB Arts teachers.  Over the course of the ½ day workshop, the coLAB team will take participants through a step-by-step process meant to make storytelling meaningful and accessible for everyone.

Why are we doing this?  This storytelling series is all about ensuring that the diverse communities that make up Middlesex County are seen and heard.  Middlesex County is currently gathering feedback to determine the priorities for the future of our county by developing a new Master Plan called DESTINATION2040.  This plan will set the course for how we live, work and do business in our communities in the future.  It is important that ALL voices are heard as part of that process—and storytelling is a great way to make that happen!

Do you know someone whose story should be represented in the DESTINATION2040 plan? This series is a great way for them to be included.

What happens next?  The story-telling workshop is only the beginning of the process.  A selection of participants who complete the entire storytelling series will be invited to perform their stories at a special event at the State Theatre of New Jersey. This historic venue is a Middlesex County mainstay of arts and culture that has hosted some of the most talented artists and performers over the last 100 years.  Our storytellers will now have a chance to be part of that history!

El Condado de Middlesex y el Equipo de Participación y Alcance Público (POET) en la Universidad de Rutgers están trabajando junto a coLAB Arts para brindar a los residentes del Condado de Middlesex la oportunidad de participar en un taller GRATUITO de narración de cuentos.

¿Qué es? Este taller cuentacuentos reunirá a los participantes en un ambiente de diversión y una atmósfera de apoyo para aprender las técnicas de narración personal. Los participantes utilizaran inspiración de sus propias vidas y experiencias personales para desarrollar y compartir una historia bajo la guía de diferentes educadores de arte de coLAB Arts. A lo largo del taller, el equipo de coLAB Arts se encargará de guiar a los participantes paso por paso con el fin de poder elaborar una narración que sea emotiva y accesible para todos.

¿Por qué estamos haciendo esto? Esta serie de talleres cuentacuentos intenta promover y garantizar que las comunidades diversas que conforman el Condado de Middlesex sean vistas y escuchadas. El Condado de Middlesex actualmente está juntando comentarios con el fin de determinar las prioridades para el futuro de nuestro condado por medio del desarrollo de un nuevo Plan Maestro llamado DESTINO2040. Este plan definirá el curso de cómo vivimos, trabajamos y hacemos negocios en nuestras comunidades en el futuro. Es importante que TODAS las voces se escuchen como parte de este proceso, ¡y contando nuestras historias es una excelente manera de asegurarnos que esto sea posible!

¿CONOCES A ALGUIEN QUE TENGA UNA HISTORIA QUE DEBE ESTAR REPRESENTADA EN EL PLAN DE DESTINO2040? ¡ESTA SERIE ES UNA GRAN MANERA PARA INCLUIRLOS!

¿Qué pasa después? El taller de narración de historias es solo el comienzo del proceso. Se invitará a una selección de participantes que completen la serie entera de talleres cuentacuentos para que presenten sus historias en un evento especial en el State Theatre de Nueva Jersey. Este lugar histórico es un pilar de las artes y la cultura del Condado de Middlesex que ha acogido a algunos de los artistas y presentadores más talentosos de los últimos 100 años. ¡Nuestros narradores ahora tendrán la oportunidad de ser parte de esa misma historia!

theVOM Story Slam: ESCAPE

A personal, true story, that happened to you where you are the central character. Though we love fiction, we're interested in the truth. Your truth. Spill all of the details.
