A Basket Full of Stories: Fairy Tales as Soul Food
On Saturday, October 17, 2026, a special story basket will open at the Family Education Center in Ulm. The storytelling evening A Basket Full of Stories invites you to dive into the vivid world of oral traditions and to experience fairy tales as a living cultural heritage anew.
Old Stories, New Resonance
Fairy tales preserve experiences, hopes, and fears that connect people across eras and cultures. Their clear imagery, symbolic dramaturgy, and archetypal figures still evoke remarkable literary quality today. Between suspense, humor, depth, and mystery, a storytelling space is created where imagination finds its own paths.
The Art of Free Storytelling
The members of the Ulm Fairy Tale Circle nurture the art of free storytelling. It is not about reading a finished text, but rather the immediate author-encounter between voice, language, and audience. Each story gains its own atmosphere in the spoken word: sometimes cheerful and light, sometimes enigmatic, contemplative, or of quiet intensity.
Literary Experience in an Intimate Atmosphere
The woven basket symbolizes the event. Just as individual fibers are connected to form a sturdy whole when weaving a basket, different fairy tales intertwine on this evening to create a multifaceted storytelling program. The reading atmosphere thrives on linguistic artistry, concentrated listening, and the closeness between storytellers and the audience.
An Evening for Fairy Tale Enthusiasts
The format is aimed at people who want to experience literature not just as reading, but as sound, image, and shared experience. The Ulm Fairy Tale Circle sees fairy tales as soul food and as a form of cultural expression, reflecting fundamental human experiences in poetic condensation.
Conclusion: Visitors can expect a festive storytelling evening full of exciting, funny, profound, and mysterious fairy tales. Those who want to experience the power of the spoken word, the diversity of storytelling art, and the special closeness of a live event will find the right place for a journey into the world of stories at the Family Education Center in Ulm.
