MAPS : Media Arts in the Public Schools

Please join Susan, Charity, Amity, Justus and Medellee in celebrating the life of Peter Rosten. Peter loved beyond measure and absolutely appreciated a good celebration. Lets gather together, share stories and honor this incredible person.

And don’t forget our infamous Pie Potluck at MAPS following the event.

His world was enriched immeasurably by the thousands of students and supporters that grew MAPS beyond his wildest hopes.

Words cannot express my admiration for Peter’s life and his dedication to the future leaders of Montana. A fitting legacy will be to see his vision and passion grow throughout Montana so that every school child can participate in the MAPS program.

Enrollment is rolling, visit http://mapsmediainstitute.com/maps_skc.html for class information and to fill out an application!

The program continues to find a unique balance between the classroom, and actually running as a business with "MAPS Works", with more paying projects on the calendar for 2017. And for students from 8th through 12th grade those are important lessons.

Student producers in MAPS Works have created impressive documentaries and public service announcements that shine the spotlight on local non-profit organizations and boost the caring community.

This story is a testament to the power of time healing all wounds and the resilience of two vastly different cultures coming together.

Cultivating Connections is a service-learning internship at Homestead Organics Farm offered to Bitterroot Valley high school students.

MAPS Media Institute, the afterschool hands-on technology-learning center, offers free classes to all Ravalli County students in grades 8-12.
