Almost all Telling My Story participants have had a hand in creating Talking Walls that serve as the backdrop to each performance. Similar to a graffiti wall, the Talking Wall allows for expression of words, thoughts, and ideas that help participants communicate their experiences.
We are working as an organization to mount a traveling exhibit of Talking Walls culled from various performances. This work will help us continue bridging the gap between those living behind social walls and those in the mainstream of community life. The exhibit would be a collaboration with the Vermont Folklife Center.
