Mark Lyons (pictured here with BuildaBridge Teaching Artist Julie Rosen) of the Philadelphia Storytelling Project demonstrated the power of storytelling Saturday January 28, 2012 at the BuildaBridge House.  The 3-hour workshop covered the fundamentals of storytelling, how to integrate it into the arts or other programs, and examples of computer-based tools to mix audio with other art forms. Participants developed questions for interviews, practiced the art of storytelling, played back the stories, and discussed the outcomes as group.

BuildaBridge is pleased to announce a new 2012 class of board members.   With diverse backgrounds and experience to lead BuildaBridge in this the decade and towards sustainability, we welcome Aleea Slappy, Hollie Malamud Price and Tracie Blummer.
