Stories
Every individual has one to tell. Every community shares them. Stories are a magical way to retain cultural practices, to celebrate the interconnectedness of this world, to make a mark, to educate.
Latitudes Storytelling Festival was held in conjunction with the Kitchener Multicultural Festival, June 21-22, 2008 in Victoria Park.
