Review for The Telling Room, Portland, ME, USA
I've been involved with The Telling Room since its creation almost six years ago. From the first workshop they ever held (in the furnace room of the basement at a local public school) to today's programming that reaches over 1,000 Maine kids in a year, this organization has never lost its smart groove or its ability to connect to that sparkly little devil that lives inside all kids: unapologetic creativity. We all have a story, but here in Portland, Maine, it's The Telling Room that celebrates what we have to say and teaches us how to say it better. The world needs a lot more Telling Rooms.

Teach the world to sing a very different and helpful song. It could reach every English teacher and student in Maine, buy its own space and expand its programming to include adults, too.
