    Guaranteed to educate and entertain, these one-of-a-kind Once Upon A Nation Storytelling Benches are in four locations around Valley Forge National Historical Park. Storytellers, trained at the unique Benstitute, share riveting stories of the encampment, and how it became a turning point in the Revolutionary War. Short, five-minute stories are told for free at one of the signature 13-foot curved benches. Unlike the storytelling benches in Philadelphia’s Historic District which close for the season on Labor Day, the benches at Valley Forge will continue to operate into the fall, corresponding to the popular time of year for the Park.
