National Storytelling Week starts on the last Saturday of January every year to celebrate the age-old art of storytelling.
Organized by the Society for Storytelling, this week-long event encourages people across the UK to engage in and enjoy the tradition of telling and listening to stories. National Storytelling Week aims to highlight the power of stories in connecting people, conveying important messages, and fostering a rich oral tradition.
During this week, storytellers, libraries, schools, museums, and other community groups come together to host storytelling events, workshops, and performances. It’s a time to share tales ranging from folk and fairy stories to personal narratives and modern fiction, emphasizing the diversity and vitality of storytelling in contemporary culture.
