We’re so happy to share that Cincy Jewfolk’s first annual live storytelling show, Cincy Jewfolk: Stories from the Tribe, will be on November 10th, 2025 and submissions are now open!
About the show
An event by Cincy Jewfolk, Stories from the Tribe features 12 women on the bima telling their true Jewish stories that have a thread to Jewish motherhood – whether that’s about their own Jewish mom or about being a Jewish mom – and includes all of the ups and downs, highs and lows, laughs and tears that come with the real-life experience of Jewish motherhood in Cincinnati.
This promises to be a stunning night of storytelling and community and we’d love for you to submit your story for the show!

- A true, personal story centered on a specific moment in time
- Must be about motherhood (your own experience of being or having a Jewish mother)
- Must be unmistakably Jewish in theme, identity, or context
- Should take about 5ish minutes to read aloud at a regular pace
Submission Guidelines
- Submit your story to cincyevents@jewfolk.com as a Google Doc
- Include a video of you reading your story aloud in a natural, conversational pace
- Need help or have questions? Don’t hesitate to email us — we’re here to support you every step of the way.
