Tellabration! began as an idea J.G. Pinkerton had in 1988 where for one night a year, friends and family would get together to tell stories. The idea caught on quickly, and by 1990 Tellabration! was a national event sponsored by the National Storytelling Association. In 1995, the idea was carried over to Japan and shortly thereafter became an international event which is held on every continent except Antarctica.
Storytelling is a way for people to connect across the world. It is a way to share experiences, create friendships and remind us of our common humanity.
CanalWay Center is located on Whittlesey Way, off the East 49th Street entrance of Ohio & Erie Canal Reservation, between Grant Avenue and Canal Road in Cuyahoga Heights.
