Tell Me a Story

– An Evening of Real Stories at a Winsome Ciderworks

Inspired by The Moth

There is something timeless about sitting around a table with friends, a drink in hand, and hearing someone begin with, “Let me tell you what happened…”

“Tell Me a Story” is a live storytelling night where real people share true, personal stories—unscripted and from the heart. It’s not a performance. It’s not polished. It’s the kind of storytelling that feels like you’re gathered close, leaning in, laughing together, holding your breath together.

Hosted in the warm, relaxed atmosphere of a cidery, this event feels less like a show and more like a shared memory in the making. The kind of night you think about later and say, “Remember when that woman told the story about…?”

What You’ll Experience

Honest, five-minute true stories from everyday people
A welcoming space where vulnerability is respected
Laughter, surprise, and moments that stay with you
The chance to simply listen—or to share your own story

Some people come to tell a story they’ve carried for years.
Others come just to listen and find pieces of themselves in someone else’s words.

Storytelling has a way of turning strangers into something closer to friends. When someone speaks from lived experience, the room shifts. You feel it. You remember it.

If you’re craving something real—an evening that feels human and connected—pull up a chair. Raise a glass. And be part of a night that will live on in memory long after it ends.

Expressive Art

The Shimmer Studio is a welcoming, ongoing DIY jewelry group where creativity meets connection. Whether you're brand new to jewelry making or already love working with beads, wire, and charms, this is a space to learn, experiment, and create something beautiful with your own hands.

Each gathering features a different project — from bracelets and earrings to custom charms and seasonal pieces — so there’s always something new to try.
