for Clarence City Council
Clarence City Council’s Story Festival is an annual week-long celebration of community, cultural diversity, and sharing and held in Autumn.
The Story Festival aims to facilitate meaningful cultural exchange and skill sharing in a format that allows for true interpersonal connection.
Instead of festival goers passively watching a display or purchasing an item, Story Festival-goers form an integral part of the festival experience by actively participating with and engaging in intercultural skill sharing, cultural exchange, and story-telling via small workshops, communal meals, markets and intimate events.
