Join us for this unique virtual experience dedicated to highlighting important stories in many forms, celebrating the talent and bravery of ConTextos Authors and Artists who have experienced both trauma and triumph.

stART With A Story is a culmination of our work over the last five years in Chicago, to continue to create viable platforms and methods to process hurt and trauma, complicate and reclaim narratives and create paths to healing. We are committed to continuing to meet the needs of those who have been deeply affected, by expanding and responding to the ways in which we uplift voices that have gone unheard, and eliminate hurt and hopelessness in our communities. 

Powerful stories need an audience! We hope that you will take part in this exciting end of year event to honor Authors and Artists, and to experience first hand the sharing and exploration of their stories through written and visual memoirs. 

Registration is free and your donations are encouraged! Our stories are our greatest asset and we need your support to keep telling them!
