Community Plate invites you to come to The Corner, a free monthly evening of community storytelling held the second Thursday of each month, 7-9pm, at LA Arts in Lewiston. 

APRIL THEME: “SPRING FORWARD!” Spring has sprung! We’re celebrating the new season, moving forward, and transitions: of time, place, relationships, and community. Like the seasons, we're moving forward, sometimes looking before we leap, but often leaping before we look. It's easy to get tripped up by time, and wound up by warming temps and melting snow. What are your spring traditions? What are your spring transitions? Do you have a story about jumping headfirst into the unknown, or maybe just jumping? 

As always the themes at The Corner are just a starting point, an opportunity to take a story in any direction (not just forward!). Come to the Corner in April to tell or listen -- don't be afraid to jump right in!

New to The Corner this year: Bring a dessert to share! In addition to pizza from DaVinci’s, we’ve added a DESSERT POTLUCK! Bring something sweet to share with your fellow storytellers and story listeners.

Each evening of The Corner includes several featured storytellers, who volunteer in advance, and because everyone has a story to tell, an open mic portion, where there is the opportunity for anyone to get up and tell a story. If you would like to be one of our featured storytellers for "Spring Forward!" send us an email at community@communityplate.me

Stories should be five minutes (or less), first person, fundamentally factual, and free of handheld notes. For more information about how to tell a story at The Corner, visit: https://www.cometothecorner.com/tell

The Corner is a free community event. No tickets or reservations required.
