Join the Jefferson County Democrats for June's 2nd Saturday Breakfast Forum on June 14. Join us for a special workshop called "Be Heard By the Other Side - Using Stories to Build Bridges" at the American Legion at 16th and Simms, starting the social hour at 8:30 a.m. with breakfast for $10 at 9 a.m. Presentation begins at 9:15 a.m.

This special workshop will deal with how personal stories, folktales and myths illustrate larger issues. Applied storytelling in action can help us build bridges between seeming antagonists as well as between our cause and the public at large. This workshop was well-received at the recent Rocky Mountain Storytellers' Conference in April. Sondra Singer and Linda Jacobson are both professional storytellers and developed this workshop in order to help others to better use story, to help us understand and have compassion for those we disagree with, and to recognize when story is being used to influence us. Sondra is active in the Jefferson County Democrats. Linda is active in Boulder. This workshop is for adults only, please. Some content may be inappropriate for children.
