Deaf Storytelling in Scotland
SISF 2026
(Thu 29 Oct: 2pm)
Led by BSL Storytelling Coordinator Tania Allan, this event welcomes Deaf History Scotland to share insights into its archive and the Seed Corn project, which uses tangible historical objects to inspire Deaf people to share their memories and experiences through storytelling. This in turn helps to preserve and celebrate Scotland’s Deaf history, heritage and culture.
With English interpretation from Sula Brookes.

This year’s Festival explores the rich relationship between storytelling and the natural world through our theme Bird and Beast. Alongside a vibrant programme at the Scottish Storytelling Centre in Edinburgh, storytellers across Scotland bring these tales to life this autumn through the Go Local programme. We proudly celebrate Scotland’s cèilidh tradition with an invitation into the story circle, extending a warm welcome to international guests who share their stories, traditions and contemporary practices alongside Scotland’s own world-class talent. Join us for some unforgettable tales and moments that bring us closer to nature, as we follow the trail of footprints and feathers and let our imagination take flight.
