Emerging Storyteller Award

About the Emerging Storyteller Award
Our Emerging Storyteller Scholarship was established in 2015. We offer four months’ mentoring for an emerging storyteller, by an accomplished teller, plus complimentary admission to our upcoming conference and one-year membership to SC-CC. To celebrate the award, the recipient/s are invited to perform at one of the conference events.
Emerging storytellers are chosen by storytelling guilds or groups in the region where the annual conference is held.
2023 Application Information
For the 2023 award year, we will award $600 grants to three organizations/guilds/individuals from Ontario and Quebec (2023 SCCC conference region) for the emerging storytellers to receive mentoring from their organization and present their stories at the conference held in May, 2023. Conference admission for the selected tellers is also included in the grant.
Deadline for applications is February 1st, 2023.
