Tell It Like It Is: Iowa Storytellers Project "Back to School"

Tell It Like It Is: Iowa Storytellers Project will present five compelling stories directly from local Iowans on the historic Hoyt Sherman Place stage. Tell It Like It Is: Iowa Storytellers Project seeks to invite Iowans of all ages, backgrounds, and experiences to share an authentic experience of recognition, community, and empathy.

Do you have a story to tell? Serious, funny, uplifting, heartbreaking… Pitch us your story today! Each storyteller will work with a coach to workshop their story before they take the stage. Upcoming themes include “Back to School,” “Hearts on Fire,” “Search & Rescue,” and “Voyages.” Submissions for all themes are welcome now. All submissions for September’s theme, “Back to School,” are due by July 13, 2025. We’re excited to hear from you! Submit your story today: c3RvcmllcyB8IGhveXRzaGVybWFuICEgb3Jn.
