Thank youEach of the 24 previous WSU Storytelling Festivals was supported by hundreds of school and community volunteers who worked many long hours to make all of the Storytelling Festivals wildly successful community events. Even though the format of this 25th Annual Festival has changed to meet the demands of a global pandemic, that has not stopped the outpouring of community support and volunteer effort. The Festival is profoundly grateful to all of those who make this event possible.
Feb. 22 - March 18, 2021
Welcome!Welcome to the annual Weber State University Storytelling Festival! I am Brad Mortensen, president of this wonderful institution of higher learning. Just as our campuses, and frankly, our lives are in an environment that puts a screen between you and me, that personal touch for which Weber State is commonly known seems removed. But whenever, wherever, and however we can find a connection, we must connect.
The core of this Festival is to connect diverse cultures, of all ages, through stories, offering a temporary space for the imagination to expand, for happiness and humility to unite, providing a welcomed calm to the otherwise tumultuous reality of the pandemic.
The mission of the Festival is to promote the art of storytelling in Northern Utah. I often encourage the Weber State family to unleash their creative potential. Art is a creative expression in many forms, and I always am so pleased to serve in an educational community that embraces the arts and especially, the Storytelling Festival.
I again welcome each of you to this wonderful event. I invite you to relax and enjoy another true treasure of Northern Utah.
Brad L . MortensenPRESIDENT, WEBER STATE UNIVERSITY

WHAT A YEAR!Shutdowns, social distancing, face masks, on-line classes, canceled
events. The Storytelling Festival has been affected by all that is
associated with the global Covid-19 pandemic. However, creativity
prevails, and the show will go on!
In its 25th year, the Annual Storytelling Festival goes virtual. The
Festival celebrates its Silver Anniversary by launching a new storytelling
performance every day for 25 days. Story listeners can access storytelling
by going to the Festival website at weber.edu/storytelling.
In a normal year, the Festival sponsors close to 55 separate events in more than 20 venues with an estimated audience of 10,000 over three days. That is not possible this year, so 25 virtual story performances spread over 25 days will make story listening available to a wider audience than ever. One new session will be coming on line each day of the Festival. Sessions will remain accessible online for the duration of the Festival. A calendar of storytelling sessions is at the end of this book.
Twenty-five years ago, the originators of the Festival dreamed of a major community activity that would enhance the diverse cultures and creativity of the community by nurturing storytelling. They dreamed of children and adults caught up together in the magic of well-told-tales, taking home memories to share again and again.
Over the years, the Festival has increased its outreach to listeners of all ages including families, school-aged students, toddlers, seniors, university faculty and students, and workshops for youth tellers and teachers.
National and regional organizations have acknowledged the contributions of the Festival with a variety of awards.
• National Storytelling Network Oracle Award for Community Outreach
• WSU Exemplary Collaboration Award
• Utah Association for Gifted Children Community Service Award
• Ogden Mayor’s Award for the Arts given to Storytelling Festival Chair, Karen B. Lofgreen
• Utah Association of Teacher Educators Distinguished Project Award
Welcome to tellers and listeners alike. Story requires both. Story comes to life when tellers craft and lovingly present it to listeners who then reframe it in their own minds and experience, bringing fresh meaning and understanding. May we understand each other more fully as we share these days together.

THE KAREN J. ASHTON AWARDThe Karen J. Ashton Storytelling Award is presented annually to a deserving community citizen who perpetuates the art and purpose of storytelling. More than 25 years ago, Karen J. Ashton envisioned a renewal of the ancient art of storytelling and established the Timpanogos Storytelling Festival, one of the most widely recognized festivals in the country. Karen is well respected in the world of professional storytelling as one who nurtures the storyteller and his or her art. She was instrumental in supporting the foundation of the WSU Storytelling Festival.
2021 KAREN J. ASHTON STORYTELLING AWARDCLAUDIA F. ELIASON
Dr. Claudia Fuhriman Eliason has enriched the life stories of so many people whose lives intersected with hers. She was born and raised in Salt Lake City. She graduated from Utah State University with a bachelor’s degree in elementary education and minors in child development and reading/language arts and began her career in Salt Lake School District teaching first grade.
After one year, she returned to USU to earn a master’s degree in child development. For the next seven years, she was a faculty member of the USU Family and Child Development Department as an assistant professor.
One of the most important events in her life during the seven years at USU was when she met and married Glen Eliason. In 1974 they moved to Ogden and began their family. They have six children, five of whom have graduated from Weber State University.
During the busy years of raising six children, Claudia taught several summer-school classes at WSU in Child and Family Studies. She served in local positions in PTA and BSA and served on the Primary General Board for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Earning an Ed.D. in Educational Leadership from Brigham Young University in 1996, Claudia began adjunct teaching in the Teacher Education Department at WSU. In 1998 she became a member of the elementary education faculty. For the next 14 years she taught a variety of courses and worked on committees across campus. Within the Department of Teacher Education, she was Curriculum Director and Director of the Master of Education Program.
Claudia was chair of the WSU Storytelling Committee for two years and was on the Executive Committee for several more years. She and several colleagues were honored with a Hemingway Faculty Vitality Award for their work on the Festival. She served for three years as a chair of a committee for the International Literacy Association and served as a co-editor of the Utah Journal of Reading and Literacy.
Retiring in 2012, Claudia continued to serve on the WSU Storytelling Steering Committee for three years and the WSU Charter Academy Board of Directors. Claudia is currently serving on the WSU Alumni Association’s Emeriti Alumni Council.
She especially values the opportunity of attending ball games, school activities, and recitals of her grandchildren. Prior to the 2020 pandemic, she cherished having Sunday and holiday dinners with her children and 24 grandchildren! During the pandemic, she has particularly valued story times with two or three of the grandchildren of similar ages who initiate gathering for stories and talking through the miracle of FaceTime!

WSU Storytelling Festival Fellow SAM PAYNEIn the role of Festival Fellow, Sam Payne performs at a variety of events throughout the year, promotes the Festival in Utah and nationally, and advises the executive committee. A regular performer at the Weber Storytelling Festival, Sam has
been featured at other festivals large and small all over the country. Sam also hosts The Apple Seed: Tellers and Stories, a radio program on the art of storytelling, broadcasting daily on BYU Radio. This note from Sam Payne tells a lot about why he is the WSU Storytelling Festival Fellow.
“Twenty-five years ago, I stood on the stage of the very first Weber State University Storytelling Festival as the opening act for the great storyteller Ed Stivender. It was a chilly morning, under big, white tents on the lawn of Weber State University. My parents were in the audience. I told a story about an ancestor of my father – an ancestor who froze in a snowstorm. Ed delighted and enriched us with a wonderful story about defeating a giant... The stories you’ll hear at the WSU Storytelling Festival will have you reaching into your own sack of saved-up stories and sharing them with the people you love. That kind of sharing is delicious. It builds us up like good food builds us up. It helps us understand and appreciate one another better than almost anything there is.”
WSU Storytelling Festival Treasured Tellers VIRGINIA RASMUSSEN sure knows how to capture an audience. She has been a presenter at the
Festival for 24 years. She is sad to miss the 25th anniversary Festival because of pandemic restrictions. In 2009, she received the Karen J. Ashton Storytelling Award. She spins her tales at senior centers, schools, festivals and libraries. Virginia also holds workshops on the art and belongs to the Utah Storytelling Guild.
Drawing from nearly 60 years of experience teaching children,
PHYLLIS SAVAGE
combines music and story into performances that delight audiences of all ages. In recent years, she has been a volunteer at Treehouse Children’s Museum in Ogden. A devotee of the WSU Storytelling Festival, she has served faithfully for many years as an MC and storyteller, especially in the Stories for Little Ones series. Phyllis received the Karen J. Ashton Award in 2012.
ANN ELLIS is dedicated to connecting teller, story, and listener in those enchanted
moments outside of time. She is a long-time member of the Weber State University Storytelling Festival family, beginning with its inception, and, and later, as its chair for eight years. Ann recently retired from the WSU Department of Teacher Education after 30 years. She was awarded the Festival’s Karen J. Ashton Storytelling Award in 2015.
WSU Storytelling Festival Associate KARL BEHLINGKarl Behling is a seasoned, professional educator and experienced performing artist who also writes books, attends Mountain Man rendezvous whenever possible, and who loves settling in to tell stories with the grandkids.

YOUTH STORYTELLERS LEGACYIn 1996, circus tents dotted the playing field on the northwest corner of the campus as the First WSU Storytelling Festival was launched. The Festival continues today, this year in a virtual form, but continuing the bold tradition that began 25 years ago — inviting youth storytellers to share the stage with professional storytellers.
While the WSU Storytelling Festival recognizes the power of story for all ages, it is perhaps best known for its youth tellers. Every year, 60 to 75 youth tellers participate in the Festival. One year there were 84! That’s at least 1500 youth tellers during the history of the Festival. They are chosen based on their performances at festivals in public and charter schools in the Weber State University service area. This year, because of pandemic limitations, there are just 46 tellers. Numbers may be fewer, but the level of enthusiasm is just as high.
The Weber State Storytelling Festival is the largest festival involving youth storytellers in the country. Each year, teachers prepare thousands of students in storytelling, and story listening skills. Local school districts and charter schools host youth storytelling festivals to audition students to participate in the annual WSU Storytelling Festival.
Beside the sheer fun of telling stories, children who participate in storytelling activities in their schools, whether or not they are invited to perform in the Festival, gain many benefits. Research at WSU showed that children who learn to tell stories become significantly better readers. Elementary students develop self-confidence and go on to participate in varieties of other performance activities in high school. The Festival expresses profound gratitude to the myriad of teachers and school librarians who have coached youth storytellers through the years.
School-age youth and their parents are encouraged to check with their local schools for more information for youth tellers. If your local school doesn't currently participate in the Festival, encourage them to become involved. If you can't find the information you need, please feel free to contact the Festival coordinators.
