May's Storytellers Canvas | Echoes in Ink

May Storyteller's Canvas – Echoes in Ink
Where Community Becomes a Kaleidoscope of Color Under the Moon

A Night to Paint What Words Stir
This May, Storyteller’s Canvas invites you into a living artwork—part gallery, part stage, all heart. As stories unfold beneath moonlight, each word will ripple across the room not only through sound, but through color, shape, and emotion.

This isn’t just storytelling. It’s collective creation.

Each guest will receive a piece of the palette: paper and inks curated just for this night. As poets, musicians, and storytellers take the stage, you’ll respond—not in applause alone—but in paint. Interpret what you hear, feel, remember, and dream. By night’s end, we’ll bring our individual pieces together to form a single, vibrant community canvas—a living echo of the stories we've shared.

Unleash Your Colorful Truth
Whether you speak in verses or strum in chords, your narrative is part of something bigger. From the intimate to the explosive, every voice shapes the artwork we create together. Artists of all kinds have 7 minutes to stir the soul.

Sign-ups happen the night of the event—arrive early to claim your spot on the stage or your space on the canvas.

Dress the Part
Let your outfit be part of the spectrum—think vibrant hues, expressive textures, or whatever feels like your truest pigment. Whether you come cloaked in mystery or glowing like a prism, your presence adds to the masterpiece.

Awarding the Palette
At the end of the night, the audience will choose a storyteller whose voice painted the most vivid picture. The crowd favorite will receive a gift from our sponsor, Mariah Fralick of Bell, Book & Candle (@bellbookandcandleslc)—a nod to the magic that happens when art meets soul.
