Celebrating Creativity
In today’s modern consciousness, we are inundated with stories. The fancy buzzwords of advertising and marketing campaigns, inspirational inscriptions of an organisation’s evolution and animated anecdotes over the dinner table are part of the stories that permeate our everyday routines and shape our daily interactions with people.
Since the inauguration of SISF in 2006, the annual festival has attracted more than 200,000 visitors with its key programmes for teachers, librarians, storytellers, social workers, community workers, professionals, performers, writers, parents, and children.
With the myriad of applications for storytelling, SISF presents infinite opportunities for development. The storytelling offerings will awaken your senses, warm your soul, inspire your creative expression, and help further your aspirations.

Digital Storytelling
Combining traditional storytelling techniques and multimedia tools, digital storytelling is increasingly being used in corporations and institutions. Contrary to many people’s beliefs, digital storytelling is not just the latest technical fad. It builds on the rich, ancient tradition of oral
storytelling by combining the narrative story with a palette of technical tools (sound, visuals and voices).
