Families of all backgrounds with children aged 5-11 are eligible to participate. \nA legal guardian needs to be present with children to be eligible. Surveys will take between 15 minutes and an hour\, and you will be invited to 2 community events in total and asked to participate in the survey at or after each event. \nTitle of Study: Advancing a New Narrative Through Native Representation and Culturally Responsive Programs; Study # STU00219880. Principal Investigator: Stephen Hersh \n\n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n Join us for a screening of the film SHANK\, written\, produced\, and directed by filmmaker Jim Terry\, with music by Peckinslaw. Described as “If Monty Python made John Wick with no money”\, SHANK is a bonkers action comedy you can’t miss. After the conclusion of the film\, there will be a brief discussion featuring artists from the film\, moderated by cast member Aaron Golding. The cast and creative team will reflect on the film’s themes and their experience bringing the piece to life. Light snacks and drinks will be available for purchase\, and all proceeds from this event will directly fund future Sweetest Season programming. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n Get Tickets \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n More Info \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n Donate \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n Jim Terry is a Ho-Chunk storyteller who’s called Chicago his home for the last ten thousand years or so.
