“Border Talk” is a creative partnership between Storytellers of Ireland (SOI) and the Armstrong Storytelling Trust using the ancient oral tradition of storytelling to work with communities, in the border region as part of peace and reconciliation outreach.

In this project we are working with 7 rural groups across Northern Ireland. Within the project we will deliver 3 x storytelling and reminiscence workshops to each group of older people and then invite local school children to join in the 4th and final session to facilitate inter-generational mixing.

Reclaim, Reframe, Reflect, will see the creation of a quality immersive storytelling piece for live performance across NI. Working with professional storytellers and a musician, a story, music and digital experience will be created, reclaiming the forgotten stories of women and feminine archetypes.
