Arts Etobicoke: Etobicoke Storytelling Circle

Thursdays, November 21, 28 and December 5, 2024

Arts Etobicoke's hosted their Storytelling Circle, where newcomers and seniors came together to share life stories, connect across cultures, and build community. This warm, inclusive space was where everyone—from recent arrivals to long-time residents—told their tales and listened to the rich experiences of others. Guided by Maria del Carmen Ordonez, participants also learned storytelling techniques, enjoyed meaningful conversations, and strengthened intergenerational bonds. This workshop was a perfect way to build friendships and feel more at home.

Date: Every Thursday, November 21, 28 and December 5, 2024
Time: 2 pm to 4 pm
Venue: Cloverdale Common

Facilitator: Maria del Carmen Ordonez is a Canadian-Ecuadorian Storyteller that tells stories in Spanish and English to different audiences. She has performed in festivals, libraries, schools, and community events.
