Join us for an evening of storytelling in Hood River that strengthens the community! Community members take the stage to share stories centered around a theme of the month. You can sign up to share a story, or just sit back and listen. Admission is by donation of any size, but a $10 donation gets you signed up for the chance to win prizes; we donate proceeds to a local non-profit each month to keep our community strong through the joy of sharing stories. Since our first event in November 2021, we've raised thousands of dollars for over two dozen Gorge organizations.
