Ventura County Library invites you to share your family or personal experiences and learn the basics of Digital Storytelling. This free, two-day workshop on June 5th and 6th from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. is part of California Listens, a program sponsored by the California State Library and led by StoryCenter.
 
In this workshop, you will create a 2 to 4-minute video using your personal and family images, videos and archival material. Learn how to tell a great story, write and record a narration script, and the basics of video editing. The video you create will become part of a statewide archive of stories about life in California!
 
We are seeking stories that reflect the full spectrum of life around Main St. Ventura.  Long-time residents, newcomers, surfers, environmentalists, artists, community activists, business owners, oil industry employees and their families - we want to hear from you!
