About

As well as the more familiar definition, imbibe means to absorb or assimilate ideas or knowledge.

As an homage to both definitions, audiences will be able to modestly imbibe local craft beer and wine (optional) as well as the oral tradition of storytelling.

For the story slam, a number of storytellers (up to 10) will register to tell a 5 minute story (no props or papers) to be judged by the audience. At the end, scores are tallied and a prize awarded to the top storyteller.

A frolicking confluence, storytellers, brewers and winemakers will share their craft with an audience thirsty for entertainment.

Organizer

Michelle Manke

I am a teacher and self taught artist with a heart for encouragement. It is my belief that creativity is accessible to all and I strive to create opportunities for people to explore and discover their own creative journey.

Being a voracious learner, I dabble in many different creative pools including singing and music, writing and story telling, fibre arts and mixed media.
