Thirteen one-of-a-kind Once Upon A Nation Storytelling Benches are scattered all over Philadelphia's Historic District, telling riveting stories of our nation's history in the places where they actually happened. Specially-trained, uniformed storytellers delight and entertain with free, short 5-minute stories while sharing the secrets of Philadelphia's and America's history.
