Join us for four hours of creative FUN this year at Gathering in the Gap!
Cathy Qualls, music
teacher from Powell Valley Primary School and
MECC
AmeriCorps members and program director Sue Graham, will
help children and adults create masks, make musical
instruments and write a play based on a Jack Tale. To
top off the fun, participants will perform our play.
Educators Anne Newlun and Kaye Mink are back this year to create hats; While story tellers, Elizabeth Stapleton and Carol Moore, will be ready to share some pretty interesting tales!


Children ages six and older may attend
without a caregiver with them.
Children under age six will need to have a caregiver with them during the time they are having fun in the children's activities.
