Special Interest & Discussion Groups

 

A Special Interest Group (SIG) is a formal group created by National Storytelling Network (NSN) members joining together within the structure of NSN for a common purpose. Look at it as a way to place a structure on the networking process. SIG members pay additional dues to support the SIG and receive designated services from NSN staff.

 

A Discussion Group, more informal than a SIG and charging no dues, assists NSN members in contacting other members who share a common storytelling interest.

 

For information on developing a SIG or Discussion Group contact the National Storytelling Network.
