The goal of Tale Quest is to provide participants an opportunity to explore their own creativity through the literary creation process, as well as develop key life skills such as collaboration, creative problem solving, and leadership. The workshop supports the mission and vision of both the Young Alberta Book Society and Pe Metawe Consulting by encouraging a passion for literacy while utilizing a model of gamification to better engage participants and encourage collaborative social activities.

At the completion of each Tale Quest workshop, the host and participants will be provided with a curated list of recommended books and authors that match the chosen genre of the host to encourage youth to continue to explore stories that are similar to the ones created through the collaborative workshop. Hosts and participants will also be provided with a list of resources that are freely available to continue exploring the world of collaborative story telling.
