Tellabration 2026 (For Adults) | What’s happening in Fairfield County, CT

Tellabration 2026 (For Adults)

Celebrate the art of storytelling at Ridgefield’s Tellabration 2026 on Saturday, Nov. 21. Founded in 1988 by PawPaw Pinkerton in Connecticut, Tellabration has grown into a global tradition, bringing people together through the power of shared stories. Dr. Darla Shaw will return as M.C. and as a story teller. She recruits and coaches the team of storytellers who each share true four-minute (strictly observed) stories that connect to Ridgefield.
