Please join us for Mountain Yarns tomorrow, March 21, from 7-8pm at The Mountain Project
This month’s theme is “Parent Power,” and we’re stoked to bring you two yarns, one from afar, Morocco, and the other from the place we all call home—Montana.
As English and Language Arts teacher at Peak Academy, Rab is always encouraging his students to take themselves to the edge of their comfort zones when they write their personal stories. Now it’s his turn to do the same.
Hop in the Cummings old and broken-down Subaru, grab your binoculars and walking shoes, and let Rab take you on a journey with his family as they build indelible ties to the place we call home, Montana. You might even learn a little about parent power by the end.
We hope to see you tomorrow night! The event is open to all. TMP recommends donating $10 to Peak Academy, the nonprofit of the month and TMP will provide free beers and drinks.
Also speaking is Paige Southwood who took a three-week trip with her two children to explore the small villages and rural mountain towns throughout Morocco. Her yarn, titled, “They Might be Monsters,” has themes many parents are facing these days.
Paige says, “What was intended to be an introduction to greater cultural awareness and appreciation for our soft lives in Silicon Valley soon became a little shop of horrors as I watched their unabashed entitlement on full display. Could my good intentions change the course of our trip and their attitudes, or was I destined to raise two 21st-century monsters?”
