Storytellers of Cedar Rapids Returns for Season 3
Join us for "Against The Grain" September 9th!
A new season of stories is about to begin!
Storytellers of Cedar Rapids is back for Season 3, bringing five new evenings of live storytelling that celebrate the experiences, perspectives, and moments that connect us as a community.
The season opens on Wednesday, September 9, with the theme Against the Grain. Sometimes the best stories come from the moments when we choose a different path. Whether it’s challenging expectations, taking an unexpected risk, embracing a unique perspective, or finding yourself in an unforgettable situation, Against the Grain will feature true stories from local storytellers who dared to do things a little differently.
The rest of the season follows:
NOVEMBER 18 — A Seat at the Table
DECEMBER 16 — The Gift of “__________”
MARCH 10 — What We Grow
MAY 12 — Arrivals and Departures
Every Storytellers event is a one-of-a-kind experience. You’ll laugh, reflect, and discover the power of hearing someone’s story told in their own words. From heartfelt moments to unexpected humor, each evening offers a fresh lineup of storytellers and stories you’ll only hear once.
Season 3 promises another year of meaningful connections and memorable experiences through the timeless tradition of storytelling. Whether you’re a longtime fan or attending for the first time, we invite you to join us as we kick off a new season together.
Get your tickets for Wednesday, September 9, and experience an evening of stories that go Against the Grain. Season tickets are also available!
We can’t wait to share Season 3 with you!
