A FREE community event!

Taconic Hills students take to the stage after sharing their stories during the 2024 edition!

We are thrilled to announce that our student storytelling program is expanding to reach 5th grade students at Webutuck School District this fall. They, along with Taconic Hills Elementary 3rd and 4th graders, will share their often hilarious, touching, and always authentic personal stories from the Ancram Center stage! Through fall storytelling workshops using our RPRS approach, over 300 students develop and tell memorable tales from their lives, supporting each school's literacy and writing goals. Students volunteer to perform their stories on stage, with presentations recorded and uploaded to YouTube.

This program has been made possible through the generosity of community members, The Ackerman Foundation and The Fund for Columbia County of the Berkshire Taconic Community Foundation.
