Once Upon Every Story Convention
Once Upon Every Story: A Celebration of Storytelling in All Its Forms
Once Upon Every Story is more than a convention—it’s a creative movement. Held in the heart of Norfolk, Virginia, this inclusive event brings together storytellers from across genres, mediums, and identities to celebrate the power of narrative. Whether your story lives in a book, on stage, through illustration, a podcast, or in performance—this convention is for you.
We welcome writers, poets, playwrights, podcasters, comic artists, spoken word performers, educators, puppeteers, indie publishers, zine makers, and digital storytellers. From fantasy fiction to personal memoirs, from visual novels to interactive games, this is a space to connect, collaborate, and shine.
✨ Featuring:
Author signings, readings, and panel discussions
Artist alley and vendor booths
Workshops and live performances
Community raffles and youth literacy initiatives
Inclusive programming that uplifts marginalized and underrepresented voices
Our goal is to build a vibrant, welcoming platform where creators and story lovers can thrive together—one story at a time.
