Dear Friends,
 
We would like to extend an invitation for you to join the students of Dartmouth College’s WGST 66.5/MALS 364/ENGL 53.4 "Telling Stories for Social Change” along with the residents of Valley Vista Rehabilitation Center, for a collaborative and original end of term performance.
 
This community-based learning course, co-taught by Pati Hernandez and Ivy Schweitzer, offers students the unique opportunity to study issues surrounding incarceration and addiction through two distinct perspectives, theoretical and practical. Students have focused on the issues addicts face both inside and outside the rehabilitation center, while exploring facilitation with critical analysis and self-reflection on the effectiveness of community-based learning and performance in rehabilitation. We would like you to join us in the culmination of this course – the creation and performance of an original production that focus on the voices of the Valley Vista residents.
 
The performance is scheduled for THURSDAY, MAY 21ST and FRIDAY, MAY 22ND at 7pm, located at the Valley Vista Rehabilitation Center in Bradford, VT. There will be rides available from Hanover. If you would like to attend, please RSVP by Tuesday, May 19th at this link:https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1NzJKtxzB2-CslcccrvguI11fOPy2FAy-yX-xhUi3e_Y/viewform?usp=send_form. You will receive a confirmation e-mail within several days. Please note that your name must be on the list as having confirmed your attendance in order for you to be admitted.  Due to the limited number of seats, please only sign up if you are positive you can attend. First come, first served. We will have arrangements to facilitate transportation to those who will need it.
