We will be training and working with 30 Cambodian elders and training 10 youth in storytelling techniques and styles to publish 20-30 Cambodian folktales and stories to be made available in written, digital and video formats. Our audience surveys will indicate that 75% of the attendees will have a heightened awareness of this art form and 75% will have a greater appreciation of the richness of the Cambodian culture through a first time experience. Knowledge and awareness pre-surveys and post surveys will be conducted of program participants and audience members. Additionally youth who are mentored as apprentice storytellers will receive pre-surveys and post surveys to measure their level of successful training and appreciation of the experience.
