Carving Out Your Story

What’s your story?On Saturday April 1, 2023, 1:00PM to 2:30PM ,the Whitman Public Library will host an interactive oral history workshop, Carving Out Your Story. https://tinyurl.com/yp5chk8u

This fun and friendly workshop will help you uncover interesting stories from your life.

Do you have any memories of Whitman Library before it was on the site it is now?

Do you have memories of sledding down the hills of Whitman Town Park?  

Are you a new comer to the area, and you have a memory of growing up in another state different from Massachusetts?

Stories are important. It is how we make sense of the world. There are generations of children who have no concept of what it was like to grow up in the 30’s,40’s , 50’s,60’s ,70’s and 80’s. If a story isn’t shared that experience will disappear in history, but if it is rediscovered within a story, it will live on for generations to come. 

One participant said of this workshop “Thank you for inviting me to today’s workshop. I got more out of it than you could ever know. I realized that was the first time I’ve told this story to another person, and it was emotional. And that is the power of storytelling” - Kent

This workshop is facilitated by two award winning storytellers, Karen Langford Chace of Freetown, MA. and Abington storyteller, Andrea Lovett. They will guide participants through the process of finding those jewels that deserve to be remembered. Please register at the library or call (781) 447-7613 as space is limited. 

This program is free and open to the public. This program is supported in part by a grant from the Whitman Cultural Council a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency.”https://tinyurl.com/yp5chk8u
