*All proceeds from this event benefit the Orange County Literacy Council.
In Orange County, one in every seven adults is functionally illiterate. This is a staggering number for a community that prides itself on its educated citizenry. The Orange County Literacy Council provides one on one tutoring for anyone who wants it. The services range from family literacy programs to GED tutoring.
The Monti is teaming up with the Orange County Literacy Council and The Friday Center for a night of storytelling that will engage, inform, and inspire. The storytellers will be the ones whose lives are most affected by literacy—the students in the OCLC program. This event will be the culmination of a workshop led by Monti Director Jeff Polish with students enrolled in OCLC programs.
The evening will include:
- Personal stories told by students in the OCLC/Monti workshop
- The World Premiere of Daniel Wallace's short film, Two-Legged Rat Bastards
- Beer & wine
- Snacks during show and dessert reception after
