• To preserve and perpetuate the art of storytelling.
• To host an annual Ohio conference (usually an early weekend in May ).
• To identify and promote storytellers.
• To serve as a networking agent for various state storytelling guilds/groups.

The conference includes storytelling and sharing, enlightening workshops, and socializing with storytellers and story lovers from all over the State of Ohio (and many other states too!). O.O.P.S! also plans regional seminars - recently, these have covered the aspects of The Business of Storytelling. Check the Events page for additional information about the Annual Conference (the upcoming will be our seventeenth) and other events.

Besides receiving a discounted registration fee for the Conference and other events, members enjoy the O.O.P.S! quarterly newsletter, packed with ideas, information, what's happening, and

calendar listings. Members can also post a directory listing on this website for a nominal yearly fee. Check the Directory page for listings of top notch storytellers and how to sign up for a directory listing.

We hope you enjoy your visit to our new website. If you would like to join O.O.P.S!, go to our Membership page. If you would like to get more involved or ask a question, check out our Who's Who page and contact one of our dedicated board members. We are here to spread the word about storytelling.
