The co-founder of Peter, Paul & Mary, Peter Yarrow is a lifetime peace advocate, performer, and dedicated father. Peter has performed a half-dozen times in recent years at The Monkey & The Rat where he is usually joined for a song or two by his son Christopher, the owner of the venerable Old Town Emporium. This very special event is part of Old Town China Town's first Sunday.

The Monkey & The Rat will contribute 20% of all October 7 sales to Operation Respect.

The mission of this non-profit organization founded by Peter Yarrow is to assure each child and youth a respectful, safe and compassionate climate of learning where their academic, social and emotional development can take place free of bullying, ridicule and violence.
