First Storytellers Festival, A Celebration of Native American Theatre

Dairy Arts Center 2590 Walnut St, Boulder

In response to the need for Native theatre artists to work with other Native creatives to develop their shows, First Storyteller’s Festival was created. Each year the festival will develop work for the stage by Native artists from all over Turtle Island, educate the next generation of Native storytellers and help reclaim the narrative for Native stories.
