Storytelling Arts of Indiana invites audiences to see local storytellers perform their best original stories from 2025 in “A Celebration of the Indy Story Slam” on January 11 at Eugene & Marilyn Glick Indiana History Center.
On the third Wednesday of every month, storytellers gather at a Central Indiana bar or restaurant for a friendly storytelling competition. Participants tell true, personal, five-minute stories based on a monthly theme. Judges award cash prizes to the top three tellers. In this showcase, eight slam regulars will tell expanded versions of their prize-winning stories.
Tickets are $20 for general admission, $10 for students, or $15 for a link to a livestream and can be purchased at the door or in advance online.
The cast includes Emcee: Celestine Bloomfield, Noel Bewley, Stanley Dumornay, Chap Flack, Samantha Powers, Leondra Radford, and Tracey Wynn.
