SHINE is a once-a-month storytelling event that features experienced and new storytellers, based on a particular theme that changes with every event. Click here to see the upcoming theme!
Stories are based on a revelation or an “aha!” moment, described in vivid detail. A moment that opened you to self-discovery! An experience that made you grow! An event that led to a new opportunity! SHINE stories have been honest, surprising, humorous, and always true to the teller. You never know what you’ll get, but you do know that with SHINE, it will always be something you will not forget.
Storytellers for SHINE are chosen from some of the nation’s top award-winning storytellers, writers, and performers. New storytellers of all ages and walks of life also take the stage. Six storytellers are booked in advance, and one is chosen from the audience in a random drawing.
SHINE is known for its relaxed community atmosphere and powerful, entertaining stories.
