Conversations with Storytellers Series

Pigeon Community Multicultural Development Center announces its 2025 Pigeon Community Conversations with Storytellers Series. This curated series will showcase award-winning storytellers from Western North Carolina’s African American, Latinx, and Eastern Band of Cherokee Indian communities.

Through live storytelling, readings, music, and focused questions, Pigeon Community Conversations with Storytellers Series examines the purpose and power of storytelling in underrepresented communities. Types of storytelling to be explored are written, traditional, musical, and spoken word poetry, and will reflect WNC’s diversity of talent. The series is appropriate for all community members, and everyone is welcome to attend.

PCMDC Program Director Tausha Forney will lead this series starting in April 2025. The conversations are casual and will allow for audience participation. There will be 6 events held at the Pigeon at 6 PM on the second Thursday of April, May, June, July, August and September 2025.

Event #6: Glenis Redmond is the First Poet Laureate of Greenville, South Carolina and is a Kennedy Center Teaching Artist.
