Is there someone in your life whose stories have always amazed, intrigued or inspired you? On Saturday November 27th, the SCMA in collaboration with Christensen Village would like to invite you to a Day of Listening, your chance to record a conversation with someone special in your life. You choose the person to interview and the questions you would like to ask them, and we will provide a private location at the museum for your conversation to be recorded with professional audio equipment. The question and topics that you speak about are up to you: there is no right or wrong answers and it is important to keep in mind that this is an informal process. Picture a kitchen table conversation with that person whose stories make you laugh, learn or capture your heart and imagination. Afterwards, we will burn a CD with your recorded conversation on it (or transfer it to a USB memory stick-user provided) for you to take home and share or to keep for the future. Do you have someone in mind but can’t find the right questions? Check out the Story Corps website to get started at http://storycorps.org/record-your-story/question-generator/list/.



It is the act of listening that honours another person and it is our goal to help capture the stories that are important to your life and help preserve them for the future. To pre-book a one-hour time slot, please call the SCMA at (604) 886-8232. Book soon as there are only 6 slots available and they will fill up fast.
