About this Event
An uncertain future awaits a young Finnish boy as he crosses the Gulf of Bothnia to Sweden while the 1939-40 Winter War rages between Finland and Russia. This is a memoir of wartime, curiosity, coming of age, and a passage to post-WWII America. These tales form a mosaic of memory.
Carol Makela is a parent, educator and performing artist with deep ties to her Finnish heritage. She teaches Spanish and Theatre for children grades K-9 at the Bellingham Family Partnership Program and serves as secretary for Bellingham's local Finlandia Foundation chapter. She is involved in local theatre and has acted, directed, choreographed and written original stage plays for our community. She is honored to present her father's memoir in its finished form.
