Cambridge dads: in their own words

What does fatherhood mean to you?

We are now seeking original writing submissions of any kind and length (including essays, poems, rap-lyrics, reflections, etc.) from Cambridge dads to be collected and displayed at a prominent city location.  The public will get a glimpse into what being a dad truly means to the men who live it.

Deadline:  Monday, August 31, 5 p.m.

One lucky dad will have his entry selected by Scout Cambridge Magazine to be featured in an upcoming issue!

 

Need help getting started?  We have two free drop-in sessions to help you get started or to work on your piece….come on by!

Wednesday, July 29th, 6-8 p.m., Agenda for Children, 119 Windsor Street, Ground Floor

Monday, August 17th, 6-8 p.m., Center for Families, Back of the Peabody School, 70 Rindge Ave., Door #10

 

To enter, email submissions to Luis at lvasquez@cambridgema.gov with the subject “Fatherhood,” and include registration info: full name; age (optional); phone #; age of child(ren).  You can also drop your submission off at the Agenda for Children or Center for Families (addresses above) during normal business hours.
