Gathered: Film, Food, and Community 馃寗 Last month we came together at @patagoniaatl Buckhead for the premiere of TOWARD THE SUN, a short documentary about the RWN Hiking Group by filmmakers Maryam Mir & Andrew Nadkarni. Our Chefs Club served a family-style meal inspired by Afghan and Syrian traditions, old friends and new shared a table, and the stories of refugee women in Georgia got a passionate audience. Together we raised $750 for our Outdoor Wellness Program through ticket sales and the incredible raffle 馃帓 Patagonia has also donated tremendous gear that keeps our group dry, warm, and comfortable in the woods, especially recently when we took a group of 15 women on a backpacking trip! Patagonia even sent their Provisions canned tuna and oysters, which made an amazing post-hike lunch with crackers (and a PB&J to finish!) 馃カ Deep thanks to @patagoniaatl (especially Michelle!) for supporting our work and helping make sure Georgia鈥檚 outdoorspeople look like all of Georgia. Thank you also to @mmircat @andrewnadkarni, our Chefs Club, Nilo for the flowers, @drinksarilla, @creaturecomfortsbeer, @p4tomorrow, and everyone who joined us. The outdoors is for everyone. 馃挌 The film Toward the Sun is traveling to different film festivals! Follow @andrewnadkarni or @mmircat to learn of its coming near you! #RefugeeWomensNetwork #TowardTheSun #OutdoorsForEveryone #ClarkstonGA #OutdoorWellness
