Stories are Magic

 

At The Story Bean we believe every story contains as much magic as Jack’s magic beans. Our mission is to provide a place for all stories to be shared so they can grow. 

 

Join us at the next Story Bean

The Story Bean is a community storytelling event where people come to share a personal 6-8 minute story around a common theme. Come and share a story, or come to listen, either way we’re looking forward to meeting you!

 

The Story Bean is held on the second Thursday of every month at Buds & Beans in downtown Albuquerque. Sign up to tell a story starting at 6:30. Tellers begin at about 6:45.


The event is free.

December 15 – Bridges

Did you build a bridge to connect you to the other side? Where did it take you? What did you leave behind?
What did you discover when you stood in the middle of the bridge and stared into the abyss?
Whether built, crossed or burned, we want to hear the stories about the bridges in your life.

About The Story Bean

At The Story Bean we embrace and celebrate the diversity of the human experience, while we also seek to find the commonalities that unite us.

Sharing stories about our lives and experiences may feel like a small thing, but we believe it’s one of the most powerful ways to change the world, one story at a time.

We believe by providing a space for all stories to be told we can:

  • Build a deeper connection to each Teller and Listener to the community
  • Create empathy for people who experience the world differently than the majority
  • Shift stereotypes and challenge perceptions
  • Connect generations
  • Change the world, one story at a time
