SAGE Stories

One of our most popular programs, SAGE Stories is a storytelling series hosted by SAGE Magazine once a term. SAGE Stories gives a platform to members of the YSE community to listen and be heard, connect with their peers, and share the diverse perspectives and lived experiences that make our school so special.

Each term, SAGE Magazine announces the storytelling theme and solicits pitches from YSE students, faculty, staff, and friends to share on-stage in front of a captive (and enthusiastic) audience. We work with participants to hone and craft their stories in advance of the show, and we encourage them to share their storytelling skills with others.

SAGE Stories is taking place in person this year in Bowers Auditorium in Sage hall. The theme this time is Beacons – Signs, Salvations, Celebrations, and can be interpreted however you wish. Join us on Friday, December 9th from 5-7 pm.

If you have a story inspired by moonlight that you’d like to share with the YSE community, we heartily encourage you to submit your pitch at sagemagazine.org/contribute/. Pitches should be 150-200 words long. The deadline for submission is 12pm on Monday, November 28th.
