The October 10 and 11, 2008 Grand Rivers Southern Storytelling Event is inaugural event for Grand Rivers. The Grand Rivers Tourism Commission thrilled to be underwriting this family friendly event and it is our goal to grow this event into a two day celebration of Southern Storytelling, and folklife heritage.

The contributions of our sponsors help with fees and accommodations for the national and regional tellers, event promotions,  and collection and preservation of our local stories. Ticket sales will contribute much of the funds needed but will not cover all of the costs involved with this event.
