MEET NCABS
The North Carolina Association of Black Storytellers, Inc., NCABS, promotes and perpetuates the art of Black Storytelling, an art form that embodies the history and cultures of Africans and African Americans, especially those in North Carolina.
NCABS preserves, protects, and passes on the historical truths, folklore, legends, myths, and fables important to African American traditions.
NCABS members represent the entire state of North Carolina. They hail from the Smokey Mountains to the Outer Banks, and enjoy many professions. They are teachers, ministers, parents, musicians, drummers, librarians, flight attendants, students and even retirees! The group frequently performs around the state at schools and local public librarians for Juneteenth and Kwanzaa, at festivals, conferences and symposiums, and for civic celebrations and family events.
