International Day for Sharing Life Stories
Plans are underway for an OSU campus event on May 16th, 2008 to coincide with the International Day for Sharing Life Stories in conjunction with The Center for Digital Storytelling.
The day is billed as an “opportunity for people around the world to gather in community halls, classrooms, public parks, theaters, auditoriums, as well websites, email exchanges, and virtual environments to hear each other’s stories. We want this day to be especially dedicated to celebrating and promoting Life Story projects that have made a difference within neighborhoods, communities, and societies as a whole.”
