The theme for our May story slam was Don’t Tell Mom and we heard stories about getting away with it, not getting away with it, and coming clean decades after the fact. The evening featured eight storytellers - half of them first-timers - and our MC was Carter Grimm.
Mina Edmondson won with a powerful story about when you should tell mom.
Mina won an exclusive York Story Slam-branded journal from our friends at Story Supply Co and earned a spot in our Grand Slam in November.

Thanks to our season sponsor KBG Injury Law’s generous support, we get to continue our programming amid the current circumstances, and we get to share stories told at our events throughout the year - all stories are recorded and posted to our YouTube channel, and a selection of stories from each event are featured on our monthly podcast.
Save the date for our June 15 story slam. The theme is Happy Days and 2017 Grand Slam champ Eileen Joyce will be our MC for the evening. Registration will open soon for audience and storytellers. Make sure you’re signed up for our newsletter so you’ll be the first to know.
