You asked and we listened!  Past participants in NHTP's Annual Storytelling Festival requested more in-depth workshops and performance variety. This year's 4th Annual Storytelling Festival has been expanded to 3 weeks and includes a variety of workshops and performances.  Individual tickets and festival passes are available.

Storytelling Festival Performances

 Each weekend of the Storytelling Festival has unique theme: performances on March 7-8 celebrate the earth, nature and springtime; the second Festival weekend celebrates all things Celtic in honor of St. Patrick’s Day; and NHTP’s season theme of “Can one person make a difference?” takes center stage on the Festival’s final weekend.
