This is the official FB page of "DISC" Dutch International Storytelling Centre. What is ‘Storytelling’?

A ‘Storyteller’ is someone who stands in front of other people and tells a story. The Craft of Storytelling:
It is a traditional oral craft; started by cave men and cave women, handed over for generations, improved and polished over centuries and that keeps its roots within any culture, anywhere, all over the world. Traditionally the Craft is used in 4 fields:
The Storyteller Entertainer
The Sto

ryteller Educator
The Storyteller Carer
The Storyteller Historian

Of course, often these fields are combined in someway.

“DISC” focuses on the Craft.�

Are you (or do you know) a Storyteller who is a (near) native speaker of Spanish? DISC is looking for a storyteller, who can tell stories in Spanish fluently. It’s for an event during Children’s Book Week (between 7 -12 Oct) in The Hague, at a school. Exact date is to be discussed, and will probably be one morning or one afternoon. Budget available! If you are interested drop me a line: francine.storytelling@outlook. com

Our Story

So, how did we get started? Well, it all started with a trip to Edinburgh and a visit to the Scottish Storytelling Centre...

The Dutch International Storytelling Centre was founded in January 2013 by Storyteller Michael Driebeek van der Ven.

But 3 years earlier Michael, together with his companion Caja van der Poel, performed at the famous Edinburgh Festival. One day they were invited at the Scottish Storytelling Centre and immediately felt at home; such an inspiring place filled with stories, soul and wonder; a true Heart of Storytelling!

Back home Michael searched for a place just like that in the Netherlands but he could not find it anywhere. All across the country he found the most wonderful, inviting and promising storytelling initiatives but none of those made him feel the way he had felt in Edinburgh.
