where every story finds a home!

CAFÉs

Every second Saturday of the month we get together to share soup and stories! Usually we're hanging out in the Spinozhof Garden but in the summer we like to go out and about: to the park, the beach, or even on a boat! Every café has a different theme and features stories from local tellers. Our space is open to all who have a story to share: no experience required! We have plenty of first-time tellers alongside seasoned veterans. You don't have to tell to join in on the fun, just grab your ticket and come ready to listen to some amazing stories!

Telling stories isn't easy at first, but with just a little bit of practice and lots of encouragement you too can share your stories with the world! Join one of our many different workshops to get a taste of storytelling or take the next step in your already long journey as a storyteller.

Each workshop is unique but they all are equal parts cozy and courageous. Have a look at what's currently in our rotation or reach out to talk about setting up your own custom workshop for your community!

Have you ever wondered what stories surround us? Why not ask DISC to help you find out! Join Francine on a walk through Scheveningen to explore the history and stories of the seaside or come with Connor to dive into the stories our city centre quietly tells us with design and architecture! Come walk with us into a different kind of storytelling experience.

When you can't make it to one of our events DISC has just the thing for you! Check out our podcasts to hear all sorts of slices of the wonderful world of storytelling. Stories that changed lives, experiments in form & style, and most recently a trip into the science and stories of a salt marsh!
