Story Of/ will stretch your storytelling muscles

We are excited to announce that applications for the 2019 Story Of/ workshop are now open!

Story Of/ is created and produced by Nathan, MFAVN alumna Jenny Goldstick, and Joan McCabe in collaboration with Society of Illustrators and a growing number of sponsors and collaborators, including inVIsion and Pop-Up Magazine.

At this hackathon-style workshop for the development of visual narratives across media, curated teams from diverse creative backgrounds prototype stories in any visual media using consistent storytelling variables and a guiding theme. You can learn more about us and see photos from our last event on our website storyofworkshop.com.

This event spreads the gospel of prioritizing story over format and media, building a community of story adventurers, like you, as well as teaching the value of prototyping and collaborative storymaking.

The event is a super fun place to meet new people, forge unexpected connections, make new discoveries, and get another chance and context to tell a story visually.

Please apply through the website storyofworkshop.com

This year’s event will take place on December 6, 7, & 8, kicking off with an evening Launch Night on Friday at Society of Illustrators, and then a weekend of story-hacking, prototyping and collaboration at School of Visual Arts.

Apply as soon as you can! We will accept participants on a rolling basis until November 20th or until we are full.
