Watch the Highlight Reel of the
2025 Common Language Story Slam
(COMING SOON!)
There is nothing more powerful then a digital story screening and discussion, and the 1st Annual Story Slam proved that!
In 2025, 12 Common Language trained Digital Storytelling facilitators chose one charity or non-profit to work with to create a digital story. On March 2nd, over 140 people came together in-person and online for one inspiring day of stories and conversation. A highlight reel of the whole event will be coming soon, but each screening can be watched separately below.
