The touring story sanctuary.
We offer creative writing, traditional storytelling and story sharing activities.
We work across Scotland to help stories happen. We run activity days or activity weeks, and can set up wherever a road goes! Our wagon is an outdoor, ventilated, arts space.
If you’re interested in working with us, get in touch.

Space for Everyone
We’re alive during a climate emergency in an unequal society that requires deep changes. We need room for new voices, spaces to imagine new futures, and places to hold conversations we haven’t had before.
Writing can be an incredible tool for self-reflection and wellness. Story Wagon gives sanctuary: to write, to read and explore, for as many people as possible.
Its services and facilities are always free at the point of use.
Our bow top wagon design appropriates the culture of Travellers, Roma and Gypsies. We’re working to make the Wagon of benefit to their communities. Here’s info about the rich cultural heritage of Roma, Gypsy and Traveller communities.
Since launching in August 2021, our clients have included Edinburgh International Book Festival, The Scottish Book Trust and the Scottish Storytelling Centre.
“Because we are all interconnected, living with one another means getting to know one another’s stories. It means understanding one another not just on the surface, but from the inside out.” – Alasdair McIntosh, Soil and Soul.
