Meet This Year's Tellers

Message from Festival Chair

Thank you to all who participated in the 30th Annual Weber Storytelling Festival. We had such a wonderful time!

This year's festival was funded mostly by a generous donation from the Stewart Education Foundation, long-time supporters of the festival. This additional funding helped us rebrand and expand the festival to offer free storytelling events to even more people throughout the year. 

Please join us again for the 2027 festival to experience once more the unforgettable magic of live storytelling. 

Vincent Bates,
Weber Storytelling Festival
Committee Chair
