Telling Tales is a registered charity that presents a year-long reading campaign dedicated to promoting literacy and inspiring a love of reading. The annual program culminates in a free, two-day festival that showcases interactive presentations from over fifty of Canada’s finest children’s authors, illustrators, storytellers and performers. The year-round mandate of the festival is to deliver literary arts-based programming that celebrates stories and empowers youth to tell their own.

OUR MISSION is to deliver outstanding literary programming for children and youth that raises awareness of the importance of literacy in our communities.

OUR VISION is to inspire a love of reading and improve literacy in children and youth.

WHY STATEMENT: Stories connect us to our past, our future, and each other. Through stories we bond with our family, our friends and our heroes. We learn, we dream and we grow. Telling Tales celebrates stories. We do this by bringing Canadian authors, illustrators, musicians and storytellers together with their audiences: our children.
