Treasure Maps: Macon, which is the newest iteration of The Storytelling Project, a partnership between the Georgia Council on Developmental Disabilities, L’Arche Atlanta, and StoryMuse is headed to Macon this fall. 

The film screening and community celebration will take place on the evening of Saturday, September 17, 2022 at the Elaine Lucas Center. The gates will open at 6:30 PM, pre-show begins at 7:00 PM, and the program and film start at 8:00 PM. 

Weather permitting, the show will take place outside in the yard, but in the event of inclement weather, the show will be moved inside. Local partners include Storytellers Macon and Macon-Bibb Parks & Recreation. The collection of short films will be produced by Atlanta-based Xerophile Studios. 

Ten (10) storytellers from the Macon area are featured in the anthology of short films which showcase independent living, love, health, family, community volunteerism, and even a newfound career in stand-up comedy. Deep gratitude is owed to the local agencies who helped the project connect more deeply into the community, including River Edge Behavioral Health, Wesley Glen Ministries, Citizen Advocacy, and The Arc of Macon. The ten storytellers are:
Gregory Childs, Stuart Evans, Lydia Foss, Tyler Harper, Nandi Isaac, Crawford Lyman, Guillermo Ramon, Valerya Robinson, Sara Whitby, and Tamika Woods.
