The Moth Community Engagement Program
The Moth Community Program provides the space, tools and expertise for people to practice the art and craft of personal storytelling. We partner with community organizations, cultural institutions and non-profits to host workshops that inspire confidence and self-reflection and deepen connections within and between communities.
