Stories, it’s what we do! Join us for the 21st annual La Crosse Storytelling Festival featuring internationally known storytellers. This year we welcome Kevin Kling, who is performing Friday and Saturday nights and conducting a workshop Saturday afternoon. Joining Kevin is Lyn Ford, who recently finished a residency at the International Storytelling Center in Tennessee.

In addition to the two adult programs, Lyn will share stories at our FREE children’s program where she is joined by musician Hans Mayer. The festival also features food, raffles, beverages and a storytelling story slam. See you at the Pump House in La Crosse!
