Louisville Story Program hosts first Save Our Stories Festival celebrating local storytelling

A new Louisville event this weekend brought together multiple community groups to mark storytelling as an old and enduring form of art, with the Louisville Story Program calling the gathering its first Save Our Stories Festival.

Several Louisville groups held programming this weekend for the Save Our Stories Festival, an event organized around local storytelling and its role as a long-standing form of artistic expression, according to WAVE (WDRB).

The WAVE report said the Louisville Story Program held its first-ever Save Our Stories Festival on Saturday, positioning the event as a community celebration of storytelling rooted in local voices.

In its coverage, WAVE described the festival as a chance for area organizations to share and highlight narratives from the community, with the program framed as a way to preserve and elevate personal and shared experiences.

The story did not detail specific performances or a full schedule, but it emphasized that the festival brought together multiple Louisville groups under a common theme: supporting storytelling as an art form and cultural practice.

WAVE’s report also included a photo credit identifying the event as the Louisville Story Program’s first Save Our Stories Festival, reinforcing that the festival marks an inaugural step for the organization’s public storytelling efforts.

As of publication, organizers had not publicly outlined additional follow-up steps in the WAVE story beyond the weekend festival itself, leaving the next phase of programming to be clarified by the Louisville Story Program and participating groups.

Why It Matters

  • The inaugural Save Our Stories Festival suggests growing institutional support for local storytelling programs in Louisville.
  • Community-focused arts events can broaden access to cultural programming and provide public space for residents’ stories.
  • Because the festival was organized by the Louisville Story Program and included multiple groups, it may affect coordination and future collaborations among local organizations.
  • As an event-based effort, the festival’s follow-on planning will shape how the Louisville Story Program sustains and expands storytelling programming beyond one weekend.
