NSN Conference

The National Storytelling Network (NSN) Conference is a not-to-be-missed event every year. 2026 is no exception. You’ll see many Better Said Than Done favorites – including Executive Director Jessica Robinson – presenting stories, workshops and even some laughter work outs. If you can be there in Texas for all the fun, definitely go. But if you can’t, the virtual track provides access to all the “main stage” performances as well as the annual meeting and the ORACLE Awards presentation.

Every year, the National Storytelling Network invites voices from across the globe to come together in celebration of story. In 2026, we’ll gather in the Texas Panhandle, where the sweeping prairies and the grand walls of Palo Duro Canyon set the stage for Prairie Voices – Honoring Heritage, Inspiring Tomorrow. Here, stories will echo across generations—heritage meeting innovation, the wisdom of the past sparking the voices of tomorrow. Whether you are a seasoned teller, a first-time attendee, a sponsor, or a performer, your voice matters in shaping this year’s gathering. We’re calling on YOU to be part of the journey. Share your stories, your expertise, your passion—and help us weave a conference tapestry that honors where we’ve been and inspires where we are going.
