Until February 8th, 2012, the Stories that Soar! Story Box will be collecting YOUR stories, poems, drawings and reflections on the theme of the January 8th Tragedy and Beyond

Through the power of stories, we build on our collective commitment to create a strong and civil society.

Stories from the entire community are welcome – any age and any language, poetry, fiction, non-fiction, and even drawings. Please feel free to download and share this BEYOND Tucson Story Sharing Flyer.

Story Boxes are located throughout the community for your convenience, and stories can also be submitted via email to [email protected].

Below are Story Box locations.  Keep checking back as this list keeps growing:

Some stories will become content for a theatrical production by Stories that Soar! and ALL the stories will assist the process of creating a permanent January 8th Memorial.

The events of January 8, 2011 shook our community, affecting each of us deeply. It was a horrible day. But in the days and months afterward, our community came together in a way it never had before. We supported each other, leaned on each other, and generally looked out for one another. The sense of togetherness was tangible. BEYOND is a community-wide event to commemorate the anniversary of January 8th, celebrate the spirit of togetherness we felt in the days and months afterward, and re-commit ourselves to working together to build a stronger community every day.
