Emerging Storyteller Award

Emerging Storyteller Award

Deadline is November 21, 2018

In 2019, the grant will be awarded to three organizations/guilds/individuals from the East Coast where the conference is being held in June, 2019. SC-CC wants to provide financial support to a locally-determined mentorship program and to budget increased funding for this award in future years so that more mentorship opportunities between emerging and experienced storytellers can be supported across Canada each year.

Basic Requirements for choosing an Emerging Teller

• having already begun telling stories to an audience

• having demonstrated considerable talent and potential for development

• having the beginning of a repertoire of stories   

• preferably, but definitely not absolutely, between the ages of 18 and 35
