THE MOTH: FAMILY MATTERS

December 18, 2025 8:00 pm

Crescent Ballroom
308 North 2nd Ave, Phoenix, AZ 85003

Prepare a five-minute story about the people you're bound to by blood, marriage, or choice. Siblings, in-laws, step-relatives, or the chosen family who showed up when it mattered most. Tell us about the holiday meltdowns, the group texts gone rogue. Stories of unconditional love, long-held grudges, and the chaos that only family can bring.
