A humble beginning that became a growing story…

Our Origin Story

Carapace was founded in February 2010 by Joyce Mitchell & Randy Osborne. Originally organized as “Moth-Up: Atlanta,” it was a small, local meeting of The Moth. It went independent from The Moth a year later, rebranding as Carapace after the hard outer shell of some creatures such as turtles or shellfish. Thus, the invitation to “come out of your shell.”

Now, after a two-year pandemic hiatus, Carapace is back!
