The Storytelling Apprenticeship, Scottish Storytelling Centre
The Storytellers Apprenticeship is a long term commitment to the tradition of Storytelling, run out of the Scottish Storytelling Center at the John Knox House on the Royal Mile, Edinburgh. It is mainly self propelled, with regular opportunities to develop your craft both with other apprentices and to meet professionals in the storytelling world.
See below for some of my experiences and the opportunities I have had with the Apprenticeship.
