In September, Equality Chelsea hosted Laura O’Connor to present a workshop to help train a cohort of “Story Collectors”.
In October, a second workshop took place at Serendipity Books featuring Joanna Whaley who offered a bit of her story as well as tips on How to Tell Your Story.
The final event, on Nov. 14, will include a performance of a number of different folks sharing their crafted stories of life within the LGBTQ community.
