Now, 13 years later, hardly a day goes by when she isn’t using one expressly for that purpose.

ARTS, CULTURE & SOCIETY EVENTS 2013 Kids at Heart Benefit Gala
seasonal cycle under pressure from climate change in honor of Earth Day. The piece involves a site-specific installation utilizing 200 feet of silk imprinted with imagery from the forest canopy. In the Fireside Gallery, Potsic will exhibit “Made In China.” Her photographic series of trees in the throes of seasonal change utilizes the aesthetics of traditional Chinese scroll paintings to focus attention on China’s current political, economic, and social conflict. Referencing the discrepancy between the country’s rich history of art and culture and its controversial modern reality, her work views the country’s past and present as an alchemy of beauty, culture, control, and contradiction. A reception for the artist will be Sunday, April 21 from 12:30 to 3:30. Potsic will give a talk about her work at 1:30. The public is invited. The show will continue through April 28. Main Line Unitarian Church is located at 816 S. Valley Forge Rd., Devon. Hours are Mon. - Fri. 9 to 4:30 and Sunday 9 to 2. Call 484-341-8014 or visit www.mluc.org for information.

Each year, featured homes vary, and this year several homes on view have not been glimpsed publicly for many years. Overbrook Farms is a rare showcase of the storied Arts and Crafts architectural styles in vogue from the end of the 19th century. Englishman William Morris, credited with launching the movement, advocated simple, finely crafted work, popularized through such widely read publications as House Beautiful and Gustave Stickley’s Craftsman. The eclectic designs of noted architects Goforth and Yarnell, Charles Barton Kean, Westray Ladd, Walter H. Thomas, Walter F. Price, Horace Trumbauer, Chester Kirk, William L.

International Taiko Drummer and Composer Kaoru Watanabe to Perform at Settlement Music School Gala
Continued from front page
wo years ago, Japan was devastated by a 9.0 earthquake that triggered a massive tsunami and nuclear disaster that left nearly 19,000 people dead or missing. Many people were displaced and are in still the process of rebuilding their lives. Settlement Music School honors the memory of these victims and celebrates the resilience of its survivors in Kaoru Watanabe’s Hiraki, to be performed at its 105th Anniversary Gala on Saturday, April 20 at the Hyatt at the Bellevue, 200 South Broad Street, Philadelphia. The Gala begins at 6:30 p.m. The performance will begin around 7:45 p.m. Composer Watanabe will be performing with the KyoDaiko Taiko Drummers of Settlement Music School and the Senior Singers of the School’s Gleeksman-Kohn Children’s Choir. Taiko is a Japanese form of drumming that uses specially-designed drums and incorporates stylized movement that adds a visual component to the performance experience. Settlement Music School, the largest and one of the oldest community based schools of the arts in the United States, started its own Taiko Drum Ensemble in 2005 at its Wynnefield Branch in collaboration with Shofuso Japanese House and Garden in Fairmount Park. Proceeds from the Annual Gala will benefit all Settlement programs and the financial aid that makes these programs accessible to all, regardless of background, level of ability, or financial means. Forty percent of all Settlement students receive financial aid each year. The Honorable Vincent J. Poppiti of Fox Rothschild and his wife, Susan, are Chairs of this year’s Gala, with Robyn and Bruce Leto, a partner at Stradley Ronon Stevens & Young LLP, as Vice-Chairs. They will Chair the Gala in 2014. For gala information and to purchase tickets or corporate tables, call 215-320-2684 or visit www.smsmusic.org/gala.

“Here Today and Gone Tomorrow,” Oil on Canvas, by Susan Stefanski, in the exhibit “Nature’s Gifts,” at the Villanova University Art Gallery, April 26 through June 8. find God’s beauty. It’s everywhere. All you have to do is look and see. Concerned about suburbia’s vanishing open spaces, she is drawn to the farm fields, the animals that graze upon them, and the 18th and 19th century stone barns and farmhouses that line Radnor-Goshen Road. Farther afield, the Jersey shore serves as setting for many of her serene, soft-hued canvasses of wetlands and seaside sunrises and sunsets. Stefanski’s engagement with nature is reverential: “Feeling the wind and watching the grass bend to it, seeing how the changing light plays on the landscape, the beautiful feeling of being outside: It’s all so joyful.” Being a ‘plein air’ painter has its hazards, which is why many artists choose to paint their landscapes indoors from photographs and recall. Rain has wetted more than one of Stefanski’s canvasses, wind has toppled her easel and propelled flies and other debris into her wet paint. Cold has turned her oils to goo. A dog once landed on her palette. Small inconveniences: “Don’t try to wipe whatever it is off. Let it dry on the canvas and then just brush it off,” the artist advises. Stefanski doesn’t mind people stopping to watch her at work at her easel. Young people are always welcome, the younger the better. Often, she will hand a child a brush with an invitation to help her with whatever she is painting. “I was 47 when I picked up my first paint brush. You never know when inspiration will strike.” In addition to oils, she paints in watercolor and pastels, is a portraitist and painter of sacred icons. A portion of monies raised from her Villanova Exhibit will go to the hunger awareness program Fiorenza’s Food For Friends (F4). The Chester County-based not-for-profit organization gathers perishable and non-perishable foods donated by restaurants, universities and schools and delivers them to homeless shelters free of charge. Stefanski’s work has won the People’s Choice Award at the Kutztown (PA) Plein Air Festival; the Grand Prize, Art of the Garden, at the 2011 Havertown Township Library Exhibit; and the 2010 Suzanne M. Kaminski Memorial Award. Among her memberships and active involvements are the Delaware Valley Art League, and the Wayne and Main Line Art Centers. The Villanova University Art Gallery is open weekdays from 9 a.m. into most evenings. For extended and weekend hours, and information, contact the Art Gallery at 610-519-4612. Selected works for “Nature’s Gifts” Exhibit by Susan Stefanski may be previewed on the gallery’s website at www.artgallery.villanova.edu. The Exhibit continues to June 8.
The Philadelphia Singers Presents Philadelphia Premiere of “Tchiakovsky and Schnittke” Sunday, April 28, 3 p.m. at the Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul he Philadelphia Singers’ Music Director, David Hayes, will conduct a Philadelphia premiere featuring compositions of Tchaikovsky and Schnittke. The performance will move and intrigue audiences on Sunday, April 28, 2013 at 3 p.m. at the stunning Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul at 18th and the Ben Franklin Parkway, Philadelphia. Assistant Conductor Brian Schkeeper will conduct a pre-concert panel discussion about Tchaikovsky, Schnittke, and Russian choral music, which will be held at 12:30 p.m. Spanning 100 years of Russian choral music, this concert presents two different worlds of sacred composition, one composed by Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky, his Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom and the other a century later by Alfred Schnittke, his Choir Concerto. One an insider, the other an outcast, one composer commissioned by the Tsar, and the other composed under communist rule, while struggling to achieve artistic freedom. Hear why these pieces are so similar yet so uniquely different. This is the first time the works have been presented together in Philadelphia and it is also The Philadelphia Singers inaugural performance at the Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul, a beautiful example of RomanCorinthian architecture. “I am thrilled to welcome one of Philadelphia’s finest choral ensembles to the Concerts at the Cathedral Basilica Series. The combination of the Philadelphia Singers and the sonic splendor of the Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul will be an amazing combination and a musical extravaganza not to be missed!” – John Romeri, the Director of Music at The Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul. Tickets range from $10 - $40. Group rates are available. For tickets and information, call 215-751-9494, or visit www.philadelphiasingers.org. (Tickets cannot be purchased at the The Cathedral Basilica Box Office except on day of concert starting 1 hour prior to the performance.) The Cathedral Basilica is located at 18th and Benjamin Franklin Parkway in downtown Philadelphia. There is limited free parking with entrance on 17th St. between Vine and Race Streets.

UPenn History Presents: “Bismarck, Anti-Semitism and the Tragedy of German Jewry.” In 1880 the Prussian Lower House, the Landtag, debated the ‘Jewish Question’ as if thousands of German Jews had suddenly become no longer German. The wave of anti-semitic agitation and publications reached the highest level of society. Bismarck let it all happen and took no steps to counter the movement. Why he acted as he did in spite of his good relations with many prominent Jews shines a lurid light on Bismarck’s political tactics and marks the moment when the German Jewish community no longer felt safe. Jonathan Steinberg is the Walter H. Annenberg Professor of Modern European History at the University of Pennsylvania, former Chair of the Department of History, and is an Emeritus Fellow, Trinity Hall, Cambridge. His most recent book, “Bismarck: A Life.” RSVP at http://jonathansteinbergbismarck.eventbrite.com/. Monday, April 22, 2013, 8 p.m. at the Parkway Central Library, 1901 Vine St., Philadelphia, PA 19103. Call 215-686-5415 for info.
