Stephanie Holt’s Teens and Tales: Dice and Dragons by Peri Hayes
Having witnessed the joy produced, this motivated Stephanie to design an opportunity tailored to the youth demographic. Teens and Tales: Dice and Dragons is an immersive experience, at no cost. Stephanie’s incentive is to gather people together in an accessible and welcoming space for an interactive day of storytelling and local connection. “To build and sustain a community around a particular art or skill, it is necessary to involve young people -- and storytelling is an important art.” As Stephanie continues, “This is a way for me to bridge youth and storytelling together. I hope others will see the value, and enjoy this outlet as much as I do. Regarding Teens and Tales, I am curious to hear what youth in this area think about D&D’s connection to storytelling.” On June 14th from 2:00 until 5:00 pm, Stephanie will host Teens and Tales: Dice and Dragons at The Atrium -- now located at 581 Talbot Street. Beverages and snacks will be available, with approximately 20 participants accepted between the ages of 13 to 19. Stephanie warmly assures, “While this is an opportunity for teens to share their voice, there is zero pressure for them to share their voice.” “As much as this is about telling a story,” Stephanie concludes, “One of the most important skills is listening, and having people model this is incredibly beneficial to the group dynamic. I look forward to June 14th, along with curating different events with a range of age groups moving forward.” Visit eventbrite.ca/e/1987323643515?aff=oddtdtcreator online to register, and kindly contact Stephanie with inquiries by phone: 548-788-2537.
Stephanie Holt was working at the St. Thomas Public Library when they were introduced to a captivating storyteller: “I was absolutely mesmerized.” Ste- phanie began researching the Baden Storytellers’ Guild and attended their first ‘Stories Aloud’ open mic in Waterloo, as well as participated in the introductory oral storytelling workshops from October of
2019 through March of 2020, meeting online thereafter. “I be- came a member and in May of 2021, I virtually attended the International Storytelling Festival put on by Storytelling Toronto. I’ve enjoyed connecting with a larger group of people in this cre- ative field.” “I dedicated myself to training through various organizations, and began offering opportunities at the St. Thomas Public Library. In January of this year, I launched Tales All Around.” The local entrepreneur is debuting their latest local event this month, Teens and Tales: Dice and Dragons. Stephanie shares their inspiration: “My sons, who are in their early-mid 20s, are D&D players. I see how much fun they have: cheering together; enjoying these connective moments that build upon one another throughout each session; portraying their characters through such an engaging form of collaborative storytelling. I see D&D as a huge part of our popular culture, especially for young people.”
