Where do stories come from? On September 27, 2025, in Lee Lifeson Art Park, 5 tellers will take the stage. Inspired by a prompt, and by the land they’ll be speaking from, each teller will share a unique tale. In this episode, we meet each of the tellers, and hear from them about where their creativity comes from, what stimulates their imagination, and what elements of the land currently occupied by Lee Lifeson Art Park gave birth to the stories they’ll share.
