First Person Arts believes that everyone has a story worth telling, and that sharing our stories empowers and connects us with each other. To that end, First Person Arts Classes and Workshops offer the opportunity for participants to hone their storytelling skills across artistic genres with leading writers, storytellers and visual artists. We cover many subjects including writing, theater, storytelling, professional development, and performance art.

Hi Emily,
Thanks for your interest in the workshop. The workshop is $250 ($225 for First Person members).

Is it too late to register for the 2 day workshop? I just read where work needs to be submitted 3 weeks prior to class
It seems there are never any Saturday or Sunday workshops. Weeknights do not work for everyone (ok – me). Do you have any weekend workshops coming up?
I too was wondering if there were any weekend classes. Are they only on the weekday? I am very interested in signing up if classes could fit my schedule.
Thanks!
Hey, AMR, I’ll think of you the next time we plan a session. Thanks for your interest! K
Please let me know when the next storytelling workshop is. Thanks!
Hi Adrienne!
The next storytelling workshop is actually during our First Person Festival- Comedic Storytelling with Margot Leitman (Moth GrandSlam winner and Upright Citizens Brigade Teacher). Get all the info at http://ticketing.theatrealliance.org/tickets/eventDetails.aspx?id=20501&org=fp.
Thanks!
