Storytelling Night: Reap What You Sow! Stories from Community Members

Elk River Arts & Lectures is hosting a live storytelling show at the Elks Lodge, 130 S. 2nd St., in Livingston on Wednesday, September 30th at 7 pm to showcase true-life “Reap What You Sow” stories from our community. Admission is free and open to the public. Donations are appreciated. Doors open at 6:30 pm.

The event will feature five community storytellers: Michelle Auger, George Bumann, Anné Linn, Megan Martinez, and David Stanley, each of whom will present true-life tales around the theme “Reap What You Sow”: getting exactly what they wanted or too much of a good thing, being surprised by what’s been seeded or surviving through scarcity, moments when they got more than they bargained for or had too little to last.

ERAL’s Storytelling Nights invite community members with any level of experience to pitch their true stories on a given theme. Those selected work with local Storywrangler Bex Frucht to develop their stories and hone their presentation skills before telling their tales in front of a supportive audience at the live storytelling event. Elk River Arts & Lectures is a nonprofit organization dedicated to cultivating and celebrating the literary arts in Park County. Our 2025-2026 Storytelling Nights are made possible by the generous support of the Park County Community Foundation.
