A Masterclass in Storytelling with Donald Davis

Professional Development (PD) course for local educators thanks to the generosity of HLC Realty and North Alabama Educators Credit Union (NAECU)

Join us for an unforgettable evening with internationally-renowned storyteller Donald Davis, as he shares the art and craft of narrative-driven teaching.

The evening begins at 5:00 PM with a complimentary dinner catered by Café 1822, held in the Athens State University Ballroom, ASU Sandridge Hall. Enjoy great food and good company as you connect with fellow educators before the main event.

At 6:00 PM, the workshop moves to McCandless Hall, where Donald Davis will take the stage to explore how storytelling transforms the classroom experience. Drawing on decades of experience captivating audiences around the world, Davis will illustrate how narrative can spark curiosity in subjects students didn't know they cared about — and, more importantly, how educators can turn that spark into deep, lasting understanding that stays with students long after the lesson ends.

Whether you teach kindergarten or college, Story Power offers practical, inspiring tools to help your teaching stick — not just for a test, but for a lifetime.

Don't miss this rare opportunity to learn from a master storyteller and reimagine what teaching can be.
