The 33rd Annual Toronto Storytelling Festival will be a 10-day celebration of storytelling influenced by this year’s theme, The Seventh Generation: Past, Present, Future.
Festival attendees will enjoy a range of performances, workshops, and forums that explore the First Nations’ philosopy that requires people to be mindful of the consequences of their actions and work for the benefit of the seventh generation.
We also plan to explore our connections to oral tradition and civic, national and international history by understanding that we, in 2011, are the seventh generation of our ancestors. The 2011 festival will look forward to the future and back to the past.

Festival Director
