Everyone has a story; the *snap* First Person Arts Festival at Flynn Space in Burlington gives them voice. The annual celebration of personal narratives kicks off on Friday with playwright Dael Orlandersmith’s Forever, an uplifting, autobiographical exploration of family. On Saturday, five artists from across disciplines take the stage to share empathy-building accounts of the human experience. Sunday’s buzzing story slam at nearby City Hall Auditorium features festival master-class participants, plus a chance for audience members to grab the mic. Back at the Flynn, the fest concludes with Vermonter Gina Stevensen’s Caterpillar Soup, a poignant story of personal transformation.
