Northeast Storytelling (NEST) is a membership community of storytellers and story enthusiasts throughout our region and beyond. We provide education, advocacy, opportunities, and support to promote the development and appreciation of storytelling in all its forms—for entertainment, communication, education, personal expression, healing, and change. Every Spring, we present Sharing the Fire, the Northeast’s premier storytelling conference and festival.
