The Storytelling Bench – Take a seat, listen, connect

Sometimes, a meaningful encounter begins in the most common places. A bench offers space to pause, listen to one another, and share stories that might otherwise go untold. The Storytelling Bench travels through the neighbourhoods of Maastricht. At various locations, it becomes a welcoming meeting spot where residents and passersby are invited for a cup of tea, a conversation, and a moment of genuine attention for each other. The bench may appear at different festival locations.

The Storytelling Bench is an initiative by Samen voor Maastricht in collaboration with Theater Werkplaats Maastricht.
