NerdCon: Stories

Come sit in a circle with your fellow attendees and swap true stories based on the same theme, or just listen! From a first time teller to a seasoned professional--anyone is welcome! The story circle is the perfect place to make new friends, dive into public storytelling, and try something a little bit different. 

THEME: Firsts

Story Limit: 6 minutes

Got a story to share? A poem, song, interpretive dance, or maybe some jokes? We're looking for attendees to show us what they've got! You'll be able to sign up for a 5 minute slot at the convention, at the Info Desk.

Hosted by Leslie Datsis! 

 On October 10th, 2005, the Harry Potter Alliance held its first-ever event in Somerville, Massachusetts. Now, ten years later - and with the support of many people in the NerdCon: Stories community - the HPA has grown to a global organization with accomplishments under its belt such as sending five cargo planes of disaster relief supplies to Haiti, donating over 250,000 books around the world, and getting Warner Bros. to make all Harry Potter chocolate ethically sourced.

Come celebrate ten years of the HPA using fandom to make the world a better place and learn how to get involved for the next ten. Recommended attire: dress robes and/or party hats.
