The annual AHSGR Storytelling Contest invites members and nonmembers to capture the GR experience through storytelling. Both adults and youth can participate by submitting stories related to Germans from Russia. This year, youth under age 14 are invited to submit a video story. They can be either fiction or non-fiction. Winning stories are presented at the Folklore Symposium at the annual AHSGR Convention and prize money is awarded!
