Our Houston Storytellers Guild began in 1986 when Jim Ohmart & Eileen Hatcher attended the mother of storytelling festivals in Jonesborough, Tennessee, and came back to look for storytelling here in Houston. It’s not too early to get tickets for the National Storytelling Festival in Jonesborough, October 4-6, 2024.
