The response at Coffee Creek was significant—they invited him to return and build on the work he started. \nPatrick will discuss the development of a new theater program at Coffee Creek\, which will include reading plays in “book club” style discussions\, democratic play selection\, and collaborative performances that explore meaningful and challenging themes. The program will also introduce participants to mentors in stage management\, costuming\, lighting design\, and other behind-the-scenes roles—creating pathways for skill-building\, supplemental income\, and supportive community post-release. \nThis presentation offers a look at the transformative power of the arts in rehabilitation and the role of theater in building empathy\, connection\, and personal growth. \nThe Rotary Club of Wilsonville meets weekly Thursdays at noon to carry out its purpose of providing service and fellowship to members and the Wilsonville community. Guests are welcome. Lunch is available off the menu; please arrive and order by 11:45 a.m. if you are ordering lunch.
