A Letter from the
Executive Director

On behalf of everyone at Storytelling Toronto, I would like to welcome you to the 44th Annual Toronto International Storytelling Festival. We hope that you will take in as many stories as your ears can hold and that you will invite your friends and family to join you! I believe you will find that oral storytelling creates just the right environment for healthy communities, respite from a chaotic world, and meaningful arts engagement. 

We are extremely grateful for the support we received from the Canada Council for the Arts, Canadian Heritage, the Toronto Arts Council, the Ontario Arts Council, and the Ontario Arts Council. These public funders make programming like the Toronto International Storytelling Festival possible for all of us to enjoy.

See you at the festival!
