Local storytelling event “7 Stories” returns this Friday night, April 25, 2025, starting at 7 p.m. to the Highline Heritage Museum, focused on the themes “Animal Tales” and “Hidden Truths.”

Each 7 STORIES night has a theme and storytellers sign up and are selected in advance. Real stories are spellbinding and raw. They are not a theatrical performance, but true life stories from your friends, acquaintances, or someone you have never met. These stories are told from the heart.

Come hear seven true heartfelt stories from your neighbors at this interesting, fun event.

Admission is FREE, but donations are gratefully accepted.

Organizers suggest attendees also visit one of Burien’s great restaurants or bars in the neighborhood before or after the show.
