About this experience

Join Amber Chand, gifted global storyteller and writer, as she takes you on an evocative journey into the world of her ancestors in India and Africa through stories that will mesmerize and delight you. These stories will transport you into other worlds and connect you to the deeper human story of which we are a part.

During her performance, she will read excerpts from her forthcoming book, Tales of the Boatwoman, a book of ancestral stories and creative memoir, bringing spellbinding theatrics and skillful narrative. Amber offers these intimate storytelling events as a way not only to entertain audiences but to give back to the community. Through her “Stories That Give Back Initiative,” partial proceeds from this performance will be donated to Ventfort Hall.

Amber Chand has been widely recognized for her work in global enterprise. She has been inducted into the Business Women’s Hall of Fame by Baypath College (2008); her Rwanda Journals were published by Marie Claire Magazine (2006), and Inc Magazine voted her “Entrepreneur of the Month” (2006).  Other examples of national media attention for Amber’s work include articles in the Herald Tribune (European Edition), Chicago Tribune, Boston Globe, and interviews by CNN News and NPR.

Audiences have raved over her performances calling them “mesmerizing,” “witty,” and “astonishing.”
