Montana Farmers Union invites you to experience Serenity in the Storm with acclaimed musician and speaker Jason DeShaw.
More than a concert, this inspiring event combines live music, personal storytelling, and meaningful conversations that encourage hope, resilience, and connection in our rural communities.
Jason’s journey has taken him from high school gymnasiums to the lecture halls of Harvard, using music and real-life experiences to reduce stigma surrounding mental health and encourage people to seek help when they need it.
University research has shown that DeShaw’s work has significantly reduced mental health stigma while increasing help-seeking behavior among Montana youth.
This free community event is designed for farmers, ranchers, rural families, and anyone looking for an uplifting evening of encouragement and connection.
Serenity in the Storm is about more than entertainment.
It’s about creating a welcoming place where communities can come together, enjoy great food and music, support one another, and have honest conversations about life’s challenges.
Whether you’re a farmer, rancher, student, educator, or community member, you’ll leave encouraged, inspired, and reminded that none of us has to weather life’s storms alone.
