Murray Storytelling Showcase

Storytelling Residencies

Residencies are a great opportunity & fun way for children, teens, and adults, to develop story writing & storytelling skills! 

There are typically four types of Storytelling Residencies:
   1. After school residencies held at an elementary school 
   2. In-class residency at a specific school and grade (closed to general)
   3. Residency at the Senior Recreation Center (open to general, ages 18+)
   4. Weekend residency (open to general, grades 3 - 12)

As residencies are confirmed, locations & schedules will be posted below.
*Please note: Not all schools participate in the program, so students are advised to choose the residency that will best fit their schedule.
