517 Story Project

The 517 Story Project is a live storytelling experience held the 2nd Tuesday of every month at The Green Door in Lansing.

Each month begins with a new Invitation (theme), an idea designed to unlock a memory and inspire true stories from the people in our community. No scripts. No performances. Just real people sharing real stories from their lives.

Stories are powerful. They help us see beyond what we assume about one another. They remind us of what we share. They make strangers feel a little less strange.

We believe that when we hear someone's story, we begin to see the person behind it. And when we know each other better, we care about each other differently.
