Jewel, story telling circle:
Host Duku Fore (audience limited to 30)
Humans tell stories. What if we could practice and delight in the stories of others?
Jewel is a circle of listeners and tellers hosted by young people creating a culture of wondering, open listening and respect.
The stories are simple. They come from lived lives. Everyone has stories.
Join this session as a few game students tell a cracking story.
Warning: The fundamental ingredients to Jewel are the same as those that make peace, breakdown dividing walls, resolve conflict and construct the necessary understanding for reconciliation. Circles of story tellers and listeners is a simple yet dangerous practice changing the world, one story at a time.
Note. https://storyjewel.org/ will be launched at the Festival. Is it inspired by ‘The Moth’? Yes. Could it fail? Of course. Can students or staff contribute and help make it happen? Absolutely.
