Stories After Dark: You've Got Mail

Genealogy & Local History Room

Description

Join OPL for a fun and loose storytelling event for adults!

Do you have a story about letters? Have you ever sent, received, or found a letter that held special meaning to you or revealed a secret? If you could send a letter to anyone, living or dead, who would it be? What would it say? Prepare a 5-8 minute story related to the theme and come share with the crowd. All participants will be awarded a superlative trophy!

Terrified of the stage? We need audience members to cheer on our storytellers.
