IRS990/Desc0Missoula Writing Collaborative (MWC) teachers are professional writerspeople who have made writing their lifes work. They have written and published many books, poems, stories, essays, and articles, receiving prestigious awards and prizes for their work. MWC founder and Artistic Director, Sheryl Noethe, whose most recent collection, Grey Dog, Big Sky (FootHills Publishing, 2013), won a 2021 Artists Innovation Award from the Montana Arts Council. Honored with a Missoula Cultural Council Achievement Award in 2004 for her area teaching, Noethe was named Montanas Poet Laureate in 2011. MWC Executive Director, Caroline Patterson, a Wallace Stegner Fellow in Fiction at Stanford University, published A Stone Sister in 2021 and received an Artists Innovation Award in 2021 and she has received fellowships from the San Francisco Foundation, as well as the Ludwig Vogelstein Foundation. She published a story collection, Ballet at the Moose Lodge in 2017. Jane McGuire was hired as a part-time program director to manage the summer camp the Writers Room. Writers were able to return to rural, tribal, and Missoula classrooms in 2021 for 12-week writing residencies, supported by government and private foundation grants. Our twelve writers taught form poetry and free verse in locations ranging from one-room schoolhouses to large multi-level classrooms throughout western Montana. Since 1994, we have brought creative writing to more than 46,000 children in thirty-nine schools in western Montana. MWC received a $30,000 grant for its residencies on the Flathead Reservation of the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes. In 2018, the MWC was also awarded a Montana Center for the Book Prize, as well as a Library of Congress State Literacy Award. Beginning in March 2020, when Montana schools were shut down, MWC writers had to pivot our programming. Writers made poetry videos, poetry packets and created Zoom classes in order to serve rural, urban, and tribal classrooms. We also created poetry exercises for parents and kids who were sheltering at home, with poetry activities for kindergarten through fifth graders. In April 2020, we did online poetry activities for parents and children, include a poetry scavenger hunt along the Clark Fork River, an activity for kids creating poet-tree in their home, as well as posting student poems on Facebook daily. MWC Writing Residencies:In addition to serving nine Missoula public schools, one Missoula middle school and one high school, the tendrils of MWC extend northeast through Ovando, Potomac and Seeley-Swan schools; northwest to Arlee, St. Ignatius, and Ronan schools; and south into Lolo, Florence-Carlton, Victor and Stevensville schools. Our writers in residence have taught poetry to nearly 2,225 children in 2019-2020. Our writers completed anthologies and conducted readings for 39 schools in locations ranging from school gymnasiums to the two-room school located above a cow pasture (the Woodman School), the Hanging Art Gallery (the Arlee Elementary), and the Burns Street Bistro (the Lowell School). In addition, students from Lewis and Clark, Russell, and Rattlesnake elementary schools read on Montana Public Radios Pea Green Boat. MWC currently posts Monday poems featuring student work on our Facebook page. We also completed an overhaul of our website. Reservation Work:With the support of existing and new grantors, MWC was in six schools on the Flathead Reservation, including elementary school classrooms in Arlee, Charlo, Pablo, St. Ignatius, Dixon, and Ronan. When schools were open from September through March, student readings at each school were well attended by teachers, parents, and community members. We also worked with Ballet Beyond Boundaries to bring international ballet and folk dancers to Ronan and St. Ignatius schools, where student watched dancers, then wrote poetry, which they read to the dancers. Words with WingsOur summer camp, which started in 2010, had a very successful season in 2021. The camp
