The Immigrant Storytelling Program empowers and amplifies the voices of immigrants in our community. The program began in 2022, born out of the vision of immigrants, children of immigrants, and spouses of immigrants. Each year through this program we host free storytelling workshops throughout Sacramento for first and second generation immigrants. We then host a showcase event annually in October to feature and amplify stories from our Sacramento immigrant community. You can check out the stories from our 2025 event by going here.
If you are interested in partnering with us on this program or if you want a workshop for the immigrant population you serve, email us at info@capitalstorytelling.com
