This video was filmed at Jilly’s Music Room as part of the 2016 – 2017 season. The evening’s prompt was “For Every Season”.
Open to the public, Full Circle open mics revolve around a theme and the idea: everyone has a story. By encouraging community members to tell their own true tales, each storyteller is placed at the center of his or her own life journey. We use narrative as a way to promote understanding between diverse peoples, building bridges – not walls – within our community. Co-hosted by Wandering Aesthetics, The Akronist and Jilly’s Music Room, these intimate evenings of storytelling conjure the spirit of community. Stories ranged from heart wrenching to hysterical – and everywhere in-between!
We are creating an archive of stories from Greater Akron residents. This archive may be used by students, journalists, researchers, artists, etc. for purposes beyond Full Circle Storytelling events.
Participants at our live events are not required to have their stories recorded for our archive. Sometimes the magic is only for those in the room. Check out Full Circle on Twitter using #FullCircleStories.
