Join us at the BYU Conference Center beginning at 7:15am on Friday, February 8th to register for the Conference! Rhythm This and Melody That!

A special workshop for young storytellers, ages 9-18. Join national storyteller Charlotte Blake Alston for this wonderful event. Rhythm has always been an essential element in African and African American folk traditions. As earth dwellers, we interact with and are influenced by rhythm from the moment of our conception. Charlotte shares her cultural rhythmic influences and invites you to explore the application of rhythm, music, and song in stories and storytelling performance. **This workshop is specfically for youth between the ages of 8 and 18. Parents and other adults are asked not to attend this workshop to foster a youth learning environment. Conference volunteers will be on hand to act as chaperones.**
