Come Watch the PARENT TRAP  (1998) with our youth leadership of In Progress Studio 213.

They chose this film about families divided only to become united.  During this time of division, they felt it would be a good way to honor families as a place of belonging as well as recognizing the work it takes to create a sense of belonging - starting with the home.

The movie will start with couple of home grown films by our In Progress youth and then move into an evening of pizza and popcorn (or local takeout).  

Everyone is welcome - parents and/or siblings and adult supervision will be in place if families want to leave kids that are 10 years old.  younger children are welcome but must be supervised by family member (older sibling is fine).

This event is led by IP artists Azomali Obisakin, Dhoua Vue & Marion Jandora They are part of our younger leadership here at In Progress and wanted to support fellow youth in finding a place of community.

Please RSVP below. This activity is intended to build belonging and familiarity while we all work to move through difficult times.
