Have you been hearing words like these more and more? I sure have, and I’ve been seeing them, too.
On a recent trip to Bristol, England, the street art was all about connection, belonging and community.
It really struck me, but maybe it's because that's what Stone Soup Ripple is all about…
OR... maybe it's because Stone Soup Ripple's Fall '21 Screening Salon Series, Connection & Belonging begins in less than 2 weeks.
This new series will evolve over 4 consecutive Tuesdays, ending with the closing salon the week before Thanksgiving.
Here's a Previewi:
- On October 26th, we start the Fall series with my Featured Guest, filmmaker Dulanie Ellis to experience her award-winning film, Ground Operations: Battlefields to Farmfields Ground Operations follows 8 combat veterans who served in Iraq and Afghanistan and now prosper running organic farms and ranches.
Their journeys offer win-win solutions for our veterans. Their stories offer hope, inspiration... and a realistic path to Connection & Belonging in today's very complex world.
- On November 2nd, we'll experience My So-Called Enemy and meet filmmaker Lisa Gossels and 2 other Featured Guests, along with 6 Israeli and Palestinian teenage girls who connect at a leadership program in the U.S. only to face the realities of life back home
- On November 9th, we'll meet actress Meredith Thomas, the on-screen mom in Jeannette Godoy's short film, Disconnected, who dares to confiscate the phones of her daughter and 2 besties ) for one entire hour.
- On November 16th, just before heading into Thanksgiving and the December holidays, we'll gather for a deeper dive into the series theme as we connect even more with each other.

So reserve your place now... and in the spirit of the ripple, why not reach out and bring a friend with you, too? I'm sure they'll be glad you did.
See you soon,
Christine
