Schools
Leticia has many school programs—ranging from pure fun to teaching literacy—for elementary schools, as well as programs specifically targeted to middle, junior high and high schools (please see workshops). Her school visits can include classroom visits or assemblies. For any school age, Leticia offers in-depth artist-in-residencies.
Senior Citizen Groups
In Leticia's experience performing for senior citizens, she's found storytelling is a form of entertainment they know and absolutely love. All ages love storytelling, but no one appreciates it like their generation. Before the popularity of television, folks frequently and regularly participated in storytelling—both live and radio.
In fact, the inspiration behind Leticia's storytelling career came from her grandmother. As far back as she can remember, her wonderful grandmother shared stories with her.
Leticia has been a regular at two adult day centers in Salt Lake City—not just performing, but also in leading/guiding the groups in storytelling activities.
