Athens Storytelling Festival

Imagine a crisp fall weekend spent listening to stories of adventure and excitement...a place where memories and magic are captured and spun into tales that make you laugh and cry. Hear stories that tell of a time that used to be, or a time yet to come. Glimpse into the past and live the imaginary. Learn more about your parents, your children, and yourself. Discover all this and more at the 18th Annual Athens Storytelling Festival, in the tent on the Athens State University Campus, next to the Sandridge Student Center.
