In a city shaped by migration, protest, and resilience, storytelling remains a radical act. This one-day gathering brings together Chicago-area students, theater makers, educators, and cultural workers to explore how narrative can be wielded as a tool for resistance, remembrance, and restoration. Through workshops and dialogue, participants will engage with the power of story to challenge systems, affirm identity, and imagine liberated futures. Join us as we honor the voices that shape our communities—and the stories that refuse to be silenced.
Registration includes access to the event and provided lunch.
Sessions and presenters will be announced in the coming weeks. We hope to see you there!
