Organisateur
Telling Tales
Once Upon A Time…
Our story begins, as many stories do, with an idea. The simple idea was to create a festival where children and the books they love were the main attraction. A festival where homegrown Canadian authors, illustrators, and storytellers would be spotlighted and given the opportunity to connect with fans and new audiences. An idea that grew to become Telling Tales.
Telling Tales Festival began as a Rotary project which quickly won the support of a record number of clubs in the Hamilton-Burlington area. Schools, libraries, like-minded organizations, and volunteers jumped on board to build a community genuinely committed to raising readers.
Over the years, Telling Tales Festival has evolved from a magical one-day event at Westfield Heritage Village to a glorious two-day event at the world-renowned Hendrie Park, Royal Botanical Gardens.
Beyond the fall festival, Telling Tales works with school and community partners to deliver year-round in-person and virtual outreach programs that represent our rich cultural history.
During the COVID-19 lockdowns, Telling Tales pivoted to meet the needs of families and educators with an ambitious series of pre-recorded and live-stream sessions. Many of these presentations continue to be enjoyed through the website’s on-demand library. Telling Tales strives to find the balance of in-person and virtual programming that meets the changing needs and preferences of their audience.
Join us as we inspire readers, champion literacy, and turn the page on a bright future!
