Come share a story about growth and the pain that comes with it.

Thu. Jun. 28, 6:30 pm at Meridian Farmers' Market | Come share a story about growth and the pain that comes with it!Maybe you have a story about the difficulties of growing up or an awkward story from your teenage years. Maybe you’ve started an organization or business that had trouble getting off its feet, or you’ve had to wrestle a vegetable garden into submission.

Whatever story “growing pains” inspires you to tell, we want to hear it!

Stories should be true, firsthand accounts. They should be around five minutes long, family and FCC friendly. If you don't have a story to share, come enjoy yourself as an audience member!

If you want to sign up to tell a story, or request additional information or assistance for persons with disabilities, please email Katie Cook at kcook@wkar.org.

Pop-Up Stories Lansing is a mobile storytelling collaboration between WKAR, MSU Residential College in the Arts and Humanities, and community partners.

WKAR brings you trusted news, without barriers—no paywalls, no corporate spin. But now, federal funding that helps make it all possible is on the chopping block. Your support is more important than ever. Stand up for independent journalism in mid-Michigan—make your gift today.
