As a reminder, this Thursday, February 11, at 7:00 PM, at the Habitat Suites Hotel it’s Dick Pierce and his popular, thought-provoking presentation: "Other Stories to Be In."

 

If our world, your world, your world-view, your "story" is a little cracked, stained, bedraggled, unclear, or not really your own (mostly your parents’, friends’. churchs’) – this presentation on cultural items/areas from other cultures, other times, other places, other ____, might be helpful, informative, and enjoyable. How do/did other cultures raise children, provide education, govern themselves? How did they work, compete, produce food, transition to man/woman-hood? Perhaps, some of their ideas/approaches might be interesting to contemplate as modifications/repalcements for facets of your world-view, aka "story." Come on out and find out. See ya’.
