Penn Museum Celebrates Art Museum Day on May 19 With Free Admission and Special Programming generations,” said Chris Anagnos, executive director of AAMD. “AAMD is so pleased that Penn Museum is joining us in this celebration by welcoming everyone in the Philadelphia region to participate in Art Museum Day.” AAMD represents 242 art museums across the United States, Canada, and Mexico—from regional museums to large museums in major urban centers. International Museum Day is organized annually around the world by the International Council of Museums (ICOM). AAMD’s Art Museum Day is an opportunity to focus attention on the role of art museums in North America. A comprehensive list of participating AAMD member art museums will be available on the AAMD website https://aamd.org/. Founded in 1887, the Penn Museum (the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology), 3260 South Street in Philadelphia, is one of the world’s great archaeology and anthropology research museums, and the largest university museum in the United States. With nearly one million objects in the collection, the Penn Museum encapsulates and illustrates the human story: who we are and where we came from. A dynamic research institution with many ongoing research projects, the Museum is an engaging place of discovery. The Museum’s mandate of research, teaching, collections stewardship, and public engagement are the four “pillars” of the Museum’s expansive mission: to transform understanding of the human experience. The Penn Museum is located at 3260 South Street, PhilaA 20th-century Nsikpe Dance Crest from Nigeria, made from delphia, PA 19104 (on Penn’s campus, across from Franklin wood, antelope skin, basketry, and iron nails.

It is on display in the Penn Museum’s Market-Frankford Subway Line at 34th Street Station; trolley Africa Gallery, which features materials from throughout that routes 11, 13, 34, and 36; and bus routes 21, 30, 40, and 42. vast continent. Photos/Courtesy Penn Museum Museum hours are Tuesday through Sunday, 10 a.m. to 5 n Tuesday, May 19, the Penn Museum offers a day of free admission and special programming for adults and families, as part of the Association of Art Museum Directors’ (AAMD) Art Museum Day, coinciding with Interna tional Museum Day on Monday, May 18, 2015. Last year, the Penn Museum – along with 180 other AAMD member museums across North America – participated in Art Museum Day. Art Museum Day underscores the critical role art museums play as cultural resources in their communities and celebrates the unique opportunities AAMD member museums offer visitors to engage with works of art. This year, the Penn Museum offers special activities throughout the day: a dropin children’s craft workshop inspired by “Beneath the Surface: Life, Death and Gold from Ancient Panama,” the special exhibition open through November 1 (10 to 11:30 a.m.); opportunities to chat with a Museum mummies conservator during “Open Window” times at “In the Artifact Lab: Conserving Egyptian Mummies” (11:15 and 2 p.m.); and a chance to chat with docents and handle reproduction artifacts at special Cartifacts (noon to 4 p.m.). At 12:30 p.m., Dr. C. Brian Rose, Peter C. Ferry Curator-in-Charge, Mediterranean Section, offers a curator’s tour of “Worlds Intertwined: Etruscans, Greeks, and Romans.” Visitors are invited to take on the role of artists during the afternoon’s Open Sketch Time (2 p.m. to 5 p.m.). The Museum provides basic pencils and paper (limited number of clip boards available), or guests may bring their own sketch boards, pads and pencils, and select an inspiring artifact or gallery to draw in. The Penn Museum also invites visitors to share their experiences on Art Museum Day via social media with the hashtag #ArtMuseumDay. “With world renowned collections from around the globe, many acquired from our own archaeological excavations, the Penn Museum is in a unique position to explore the story of humanity,” noted Julian Siggers, Ph.D., Williams Director, Penn Museum, and a member of the Association of Art Museum Directors. “We are delighted to join with art museums around the country – and international museums around the world – for a day of special access to celebrate our shared cultural and artistic heritage.” “Art museums are invaluable communal spaces that bring people together to experience the arts across cultures and

“Witness and Provocation” May 17 at Philadelphia Ethical Society
May 13 – May 19, 2015
Primary Elections Do Matter, Especially in 2015 Primary Election May 19 – t’s easy to rationalize not voting in the Pennsylvania Primary Election taking place May 19. “2015 is an off-year election cycle; there aren’t any important races on the ballot.” “Primaries don’t matter; all of the candidates who will be running in the General Election have already been selected by party insiders.” These are just two of the common reasons, or excuses, given. But the fact is, there is much a stake in the 2015 PA Primary, regardless of your political party. In Lower Merion and Narberth, we will be voting for township commissioners or borough council members, school board directors, and constables; county commissioners and row offices, e.g., District Attorney, Treasurer, Controller; and judges at the local, county, and state levels, including the PA Supreme Court. The candidates elected to fill these positions can, most likely will, affect our community over the long-term as much as our state and Congressional legislators, Governor, and President will. Consider, for example, the judges we will be electing. When a judge is elected in PA, regardless of the level, his/her initial term of office is 10 years. After their initial term expires, they run in “yes/no” retention elections. So the judges we elect in PA serve for a minimum of 10 years, and in many cases, longer. This is just one reason, a very important one, to take this off-year election cycle seriously. As for the rationalization that the outcomes of primary races are predetermined, this, too, is not true. First, there are several contested primary races for both parties this year. Second, in Pennsylvania, candidates for School Board, Magisterial District Court, and Court of Common Pleas are permitted to run on both the Democratic and Republican primary ballots, a practice referred to as cross-filing. Further complicating this is the fact the candidates running in these races are not identified as Democrats or Republicans on the ballot. So, if you’re a registered Democrat, for example, the Republicans running in the Democratic Primary for School Board, Magisterial District Judge, and Montgomery County Court of Common Pleas, will not be designated as Republi-
I
Polls Open 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. cans on your ballot. Same, of course, for GOP voters. The implication of this: if enough members of your party don’t vote in the primary, it is possible that one or more of your party’s candidates will not make it to the General Election, leaving you with fewer real races in the fall. The solution: be sure to vote on May 19, or if you’re voting by absentee ballot, be sure to fill it out and return it to the Montgomery County Election Board by Friday, May 15. You can return your completed absentee ballot in person (Montgomery County Election Board, One Montgomery Plaza, 425 Swede Street, Suite 602, Norristown), or by mail (Montgomery County Election Board, Montgomery County Courthouse, P.O. Box 311, Norristown, PA 19404-0311). If you do plan to mail back your completed absentee ballot, keep in mind that postmarks do not count. In other words, your competed ballot must be received by May 15; it is not sufficient if it is postmarked by this date. To wrap up, here are some important web resources for voters. First, to confirm your voter registration status, visit https://www.pavoterservices.state.pa.us/Pages/voterregistrationstatus.aspx. Second, to find your polling place, visit http://webapp.montcopa.org/voterservices/voters/Lookup Poll.asp. You can preview the ballot you will encounter on May 19 by visiting http://webapp.montcopa.org/voterservices/sampleballots/, and entering your voting jurisdiction (Lower Merion or Narberth). You will also need to know which precinct you reside in. Another useful resource is Montgomery County’s Voter Services website, http://www.montcopa.org/index.aspx?nid=753. Lastly, for information about your party’s Primary Election candidates, Democrats can visit http://www.democratslmn.org, the website of the Democratic Committee of Lower Merion and Narberth, and Republicans can visit http://www.lowermerionvote.org, website of the Republican Committee of Lower Merion & Narberth. You can also visit the League of Women Voters online voter guide at http://www.vote411.org. See you at the polls on May 19.

But the year’s many discouraging events inspired them to raise their voices once again. They believe they have a responsibility as artists to bear witness to and testify about the trying times we all live in today. They hope that the words and music they share will move the audience and provoke at least some of them to open their eyes a bit wider, see the needs in the world more clearly, and consider Flack’s question: “Whatcha gonna do?” Beth Palubinsky is a Life-Cycle Celebrant, composing and officiating at personalized ceremonies for couples, individuals and organizations. Formerly a practicing attorney and development professional, she serves on the board of Senior LAW Center in Philadelphia. Bernardine (Dine) Watson is a writer who lives in Washington DC.

Accessible from monument rd. • Easy to park & Walk in
Thanks for reading City Suburban News every week!
tic giants Johann Sebastian Bach, Ludwig van Beethoven and Johannes Brahms! On Friday, May 15, at 8 p.m., Maestro Valentin Radu will lead the musical forces of the Ama Deus Ensemble symphony orchestra, in collaboration with the internationally famed British piano virtuoso Peter Donohoe, in a musical tour de force of works by the 3 B’s. Probably for the first time in this region’s musical history, each of this famous musical trio’s major piano concertos will be performed by the same soloist, during the course of the same concert! Peter Donohoe, ever since his 1982 victory at the renowned Tchaikovsky Piano Competition in Moscow, has been thrilling audiences throughout the world in concert appearances with the Berliner Philharmoniker (in Sir Simon Rattle’s opening concerts as music director), with all the major London orchestras, at the BBC Proms, as well as with the Royal Concertgebouw, Leipzig Gewandhaus, Munich Philharmonic, Swedish Radio, Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France, Vienna Symphony and Czech Philharmonic Orchestras. For the past four years Mr. Donohoe has performed with Valentin Radu and the Ama Deus Ensemble orchestra in a highly popular series of Gershwin-oriented pops concerts at the Kimmel Center. The 3 B’s concert of Friday, May 15, at 8 p.m. in the Kimmel Center will offer Philadelphia area music aficionados a fabulous opportunity to enjoy the “classical” side of Peter Donohoe’s amazing keyboard artistry. For on that evening, instead of typical one-guest-artistone-concerto programming, he and Maestro Valentin Radu will offer music lovers three major keyboard concertos in one sitting! This singular concert will feature the following major compositions; in chronological order they are: The Keyboard Concerto No. 1 in d minor, BWV 1052, by Johann Sebastian Bach was originally performed on the harpsichord (the concert grand piano, as we know it, being about 100 years off in the future!). The first performance of this highly virtuosic concerto probably occurred in a Leipzig coffee house, before a student musical society, in the late 1720s. Scholars believe that Felix Mendelssohn later performed it, and that Johannes Brahms composed a cadenza for it (a cadenza being an elaborate and technically difficult ornamental section of music, generally coming near the end of the work). Ludwig van Beethoven’s well-known and highly popular Piano Concerto No. 5 in E-flat Major, Op. 73, is known to the world as the “Emperor”—thanks to the concerto’s English music publisher who coined this nickname! First performed by Beethoven himself in Leipzig on November 28, 1811, this was the last piano concerto Beethoven composed, and it is a stupendously exciting work. Rounding out this monumental musical evening will be the Piano Concerto No. 1 in d minor, Op. 15, composed by a 25-year-old Johannes Brahms. This titanic and lush work was influenced by the famed piano virtuoso, Clara Wieck Schumann, wife, and later widow, of the renowned composer, Robert Schumann. Prior to the first performance of this piano concerto on January 22, 1859, in Hanover, Brahms and his music had embarked on a five-year journey of writes and rewrites. And then, after all this toil, in four of its five initial performances, Brahms’ first piano concerto was not well received. However, generations of later audiences have solidly disagreed with the early naysayers, making this momentous and romantically lush first piano concerto one of the most popular in the entire piano repertoire. Peter Donohoe will perform upon the world-renowned Bösendorfer Imperial Grand Piano, the world’s largest grand piano, which has an extension down to a resounding sub-contra low C! By special arrangement with Cunningham Pianos of Philadelphia, Bösendorfer pianos, exclusively, have graced the VoxAmaDeus stage throughout the 2014-2015 musical season. Tickets are priced at $20 - $40 - $70 depending upon location in the Perelman Theater (plus box office fees). They may be purchased via telephone by calling the Kimmel Center box office at 215-893-1999; or by going online at www.KimmelCenter.org; or by visiting the Kimmel Center’s Box Office at Broad and Spruce Streets in center city Philadelphia from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily.

Few people who knew John Flynn as a boy would have predicted the path his life would take. A self-professed “straight Singer/songwriter John Flynn performs at the Lansdowne Folk Club, Thursday, arrow,” as a senior at Ridley High in suburban Philadelphia, PA, the former altar May 14, at the Twentieth Century Club, 84 S. Lansdowne Avenue, Lansdowne, PA. boy who once strummed a New Year’s Day banjo in the world famous Mummers Parade was named president of the National Honor Society and Scholar Athlete of the Year while receiving two congressional nominations to the United States Naval Academy. John was making plans to play lacrosse for Navy when he found out he would not be able to take his guitar with him to Annapolis. Although music had always been an important part of John’s life, he was surprised to realize how much he had come to rely on his beloved Guild twelve string. The thought of leaving it behind, even for a few months, caused him to begin to admit to himself that he had other dreams. John abruptly changed course and began writing songs in earnest. He put himself through Temple University playing in bar bands. Though his degree was in political science, he abandoned the idea of studying law when he was offered a staff songwriting position at Combine Music in Nashville, following Billy Swan’s Top 40 country recording of John’s song, “Rainbows and Butterflies.” Today, John’s shows draw from a significant body of work, ranging from his early country offerings to story songs, love songs, songs for kids, funny songs, songs of social justice, and meditations on loss, tolerance, faith and hope. Learn more about John at his website http://johnflynn.net. The Lansdowne Folk Club, founded in 1993, is a 501(c) (3) all volunteer non-profit corporation dedicated to presenting folk, acoustic and blues music.

Main Line Doctor Presents a Healthy Dose of Music The Kirtan Gypsies Debut Performance on May 16 r. Daphne Goldberg has taken John A. Logan’s quote: “Music is the medicine of the mind” to the next level. As an integrative family physician, Daphne has always believed that music has a strong healing component. Within the span of 12 months Daphne has co-produced two full-length musical CDs: with Jonathan Dichter, “The Truth Has Eyes”; and with Eric Bazillian, “Yoga Mantras for the Gypsy Soul.” She is also credited as an executive producer on David Newman’s recently released CD “Love is Awake.” Music has always been an important ingredient in Daphne’s life. From an early age she was inspired by the folk music from her native country, Israel. From her parents Daphne was exposed to classical music and American jazz. With no formal musical training, a second hand guitar, and a burning desire to play music, upon graduating from Penn she had her heart set to go to California where many aspiring musicians had previously blazed their paths. But her journey kept her in Philadelphia and she began to raise a family and launched a career as an integrative holistic family doctor. In the summer of 2014, with ukulele in hand, Daphne and her fiancé, Jonathan Dichter participated in an informal jam The Kirtan Gypsies – Jonathan Dichter, Dr. Daphne session with Kirtan singer Sarra Kauffman and the musical Goldberg, Sarra Kauffman – will make their debut ensemblproe The Kirtan Gypsies was born. appearance on May 16 at 8 p.m. in Gladwyne, PA.

Summer Reading Program
www.sju.edu/int/academics/cas/grad/resources/summerreading/index.html
June 29 - July 30, 2015 Mon. - Thurs., 8:45 a.m. - 12 p.m. Testing dates: June 6 & June 13 and the week of June 22.
Saint Joseph’s University Summer Reading Program provides students with individual ized assessment profiles, small group instruction, and collaborative literacy learning focused on higher-level thinking. The program is designed to serve elementary and middle school students ranging from struggling readers to those who need to be challenged or enriched. Current literacy research will guide all instructional and reinforcement activities being implemented by certified teachers. Rosemont School of the Holy Child’s medalists in the National Spanish Examination. Front row – Mary Grace Miller (Broomall), Angel Thomas (Philadelphia), Caroline Roarty (Villanova). Second row – Kayla Pierre (Norristown), Malenne Kelly (Malvern). Third row – Carter Strid (Bryn Mawr), David Pomeroy (Rosemont), Francis Curran (Media), Anne Curran (Villanova), Jessica Schneider (Wayne), and Emily Szela (Wayne). ary Grace Miller (Broomall), an eighth grade student at Rosemont School of the Holy Child in Rosemont, achieved a perfect score this winter in all four areas of the online National Spanish Examination: vocabulary, grammar, reading, and listening. The National Spanish Examinations are the most widely used tests of Spanish in the United States. More than 158,000 students took the 2015 test nationwide, and Mary Grace was among only 61 students to answer all questions correctly. “Mary Grace has an outstanding work ethic and combining that with a natural ear for language, I’m not surprised,” said Rosemont School World Languages Department Chair Peggy Stephens. “She’s an outstanding linguist.” Rosemont School of the Holy Child’s 8th graders did very well in all areas of the test. The class scored significantly higher than the 50 percent national average by achieving the 71st percentile, meaning its students scored higher than 71 percent of the other U.S. students taking the test. Three members of the class earned gold medal recognition, four earned silver, four earned bronze, and eight others were recognized with honors distinction. Mary Grace has been accepted into the Agnes Irwin School for high school. Medal winners from Rosemont School Gold: Malenne Kelly (Malvern), Mary Grace Miller (Broomall), Jessica Schneider (Wayne). Silver: Anne Curran (Villanova), Francis Curran (Media), Kayla Pierre (Norristown), David Pomeroy (Rosemont). Bronze: Caroline Roarty (Villanova), Carter Strid (Bryn Mawr), Emily Szela (Wayne), Angel Thomas (Philadelphia).

Open Your Heart and Home to a New York City Child this Summer F C resh Air volunteers need your help to create another funfilled summer for children from New York City! Each summer, nearly 4,000 children visit volunteer host families in rural, suburban, and small town communities across 13 states from Virginia to Maine and Canada. Host families simply want to share their homes with city children and the pure joys of summertime outside of the city. Families find hosting so rewarding that more than 65 percent of all Fresh Air children are reinvited to visit the same host families year after year. First-time Fresh Air visitors are six to 12 years old, and Fresh Air hosts range from young families to grandparents. All it takes is the willingness to welcome a New York City child to your community. “Our Fresh Air child loves hanging out on the front lawn and jumping in the pool. Honestly, she enjoys the simple things the most,” says a Fresh Air host. The Fresh Air Fund, an independent, not-for-profit agency, has provided free summer experiences to more than 1.8 million New York City children from low-income communities since 1877. For information about hosting a Fresh Air child this summer, contact Deborah Asirifi at 212-897-8969 or visit The Fresh Air Fund online at www.freshair.org.

Crossroads Hospice Seeks Compassionate, Caring Student Volunteers
rossroads Hospice seeks compassionate volunteers to provide comfort, companionship and a helping hand to terminally-ill patients and their families in their homes, in assisted living facilities and nursing facilities. Volunteers are also welcome to help Crossroads staff in the office, including planning a “Gift of a Day,” which asks a patient to describe a perfect day and then makes it a reality. Crossroads Hospice welcomes student volunteers who are 16 years or older to donate time to hospice volunteering. By donating as little as 45 minutes per week, students can help fulfill community service hour requirements while honing their social abilities, boosting self-confidence and developing new skills. Volunteers share their favorite activities like reading, card games, playing music, or arts and crafts. They can bring their pets to visit patients or run errands and provide respite for family members. “We call our volunteers ‘Ultimate Givers’ because they selflessly give extra love and comfort to terminally-ill patients and their families,” says Volunteer Manager Kim Mumper. “Just being a friendly voice or giving caregivers a much-
Second Annual “Art From The Heart”
needed break makes a world of difference. Best of all, our volunteers often gain as much as they give—new relationships, new skills and great satisfaction.” For information or to sign up as an “Ultimate Giver,” contact Mumper at 215-956-5110 or kim.mumper@crossroadshospice.com or visit https://www.crossroadshospice.com/hospice-volunteering/hospice-volunteering/. Before becoming a Crossroads Hospice “Ultimate Giver,” participants must complete an application, TB skin test, and training session led by members of the Crossroads team. Potential volunteers must wait a minimum of one year after the death of an immediate family member or loved one before applying. Crossroads Hospice is committed to being at the forefront of the hospice care industry, to continually shape the way end-of-life care is viewed and administered. The mission of Crossroads Hospice is to provide highly unique, comprehensive, and compassionate hospice services to persons experiencing a life-limiting illness and to their caregivers.

iCan Shine at Notre Dame June 22 - 26
On Saturday, May 30, from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m., Phoenix Village Art Center – 207 Bridge St., Phoenixville, PA 19460 – will be turned into four floors of fun and delight. Tickets are now on sale for you to come and enjoy the food and music, the raffles and Silent Auction and take home a piece of original art valued at $50 or more! To view the Gallery online and purchase fundraiser tickets, go to http://artfromtheheartgala.blogspot.com, or go in person to the Phoenix Village Art Center. An “Art from the Heart” patron ticket is $75; bring a guest with a companion ticket at $25. Patrons will receive a card at the door; when your card is called, you choose your favorite from walls and cases of art. Any unsold tickets can be purchased at the door.
he Academy of Notre Dame is excited to host iCan Bike to campus from June 22-26. iCan Shine is a non-profit organization that teaches people with disabilities how to ride a two-wheel bicycle through the five-day iCan Bike program. The program assists individuals ages 8 and up, including teens and adults, who have a disability but are still able to walk without assistance. This year, Academy of Notre Dame students will serve as volunteer “spotters” along with trained professionals, to assist participants in using adapted equipment to achieve their goals. The program requires one 75-minute session per day. At the end of the weeklong camp, more than eighty percent of the participants are able to ride a conventional bicycle with total independence. The organization’s dedication to physical play and its therapeutic benefits are what make the program successful. Using small achievable goals and a fun, safe, and supportive environment, individuals enrolled in iCan Bike no longer view the ability and skill of riding a bicycle as a difficult challenge, but rather as something “iCan” do. iCan Shine’s programs have received glowing testimonials from hosts (like the Academy of Notre Dame this summer), participants and their parents, sponsors, and volunteers alike. The simplest testimonials of participants say the most: “I feel so alive,” “I can do anything.” The Academy of Notre Dame’s mission is to follow the words of founder St. Julie Billiart: “Teach them what they need to know for life.” iCan Shine is an exemplary organization that also achieves that mission. They don’t just teach their participants how to ride a bike; they teach them how to have confidence, believe in themselves, and know that they can shine.

at Drexel’s College of Arts and Sciences. In September he made international headlines when he announced the discovery and description of a new supermassive dinosaur species with the most complete skeleton ever found of its type. Lacovara discovered the fossil skeleton in southern Patagonia in Argentina and led its excavation and analysis. He named it Dreadnoughtus schrani. The paleontology fellow, a three-year honorific position, will collaborate with the Academy to develop and implement exhibits, museum programming and outreach efforts in paleontology, especially dinosaur paleontology. He also will have access to the Academy’s research facilities and vast specimen collection. Academy President and CEO George W. Gephart, Jr. said there is a great synergy with the Academy’s programming and outreach efforts and Lacovara’s keen ability to engage the public through his research on dinosaurs and New Jersey fossils. “It’s important to us to communicate the latest dinosaur science, and Ken is a wonderful communicator,” Gephart said. “We look forward to collaborating on both our research and education endeavors.” Lacovara already has deep roots at the Academy. He is a research associate and has led numerous dinosaur digs that involved Dinosaur Hall Coordinator Jason Poole, who was part of the team that excavated Dreadnoughtus. “Dinosaur paleontology began in the United States at the Academy of Natural Sciences. It’s great to be part of that rich legacy,” Lacovara said. “I hope to use the near universal fascination with dinosaurs as a way to engage the public in the process of science and to help contextualize the human experience on our planet.” Lacovara’s research is focused on the paleontological reconstruction of Mesozoic Era environments containing the remains of dinosaurs and other vertebrate animals. He also is among the first wave of paleontologists to begin using modern 3-D scanning and 3-D printing methods in research. He has been a member of the Bahariya Dinosaur project, working in the Egyptian Sahara, and a collaborative project studying the evolution of Cretaceous ornithurine birds from China. Locally, Lacovara and students collaborate on a study of the Cretaceous fauna of southern New Jersey and are working with local township officials to preserve the site as a fossil park. Founded in 1812, the Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University is a leading natural history museum dedicated to advancing research, education, and public engagement in biodiversity and environmental science.

The Sensory Garden Party will feature a fun craft inspired by the Center’s newly established Sensory Garden. Photo/ Howard Pitkow n Saturday, May 30 from 1 to 3 p.m., Main Line Art Center in Haverford will celebrate the inspiring artists in their Accessible Art Programs for artists with disabilities, atrisk youth, and low-income families, as well as the 25th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), with a festive Sensory Garden Party and Ice Cream Bowl Fundraiser. This spring, the Art Center received a 2015 Commitment to Cultural Access Award for these programs from Art-Reach, a Philadelphia-based nonprofit working to increase access to the arts in diverse populations. Now in their 51st year, the Accessible Art Programs have transformed the lives of thousands of individuals by instilling a sense of belonging, accomplishment, and pride through art. Set in the Art Center’s picturesque Sensory Garden, guests to the free event will enjoy music, garden-themed art projects for children, and refreshments, and can welcome summer by purchasing a handcrafted ceramic bowl with ice cream for $15, or a disposable bowl of ice cream for $5. The fun event will also serve as a closing reception for the “Spring Gala Exhibition and Fundraiser,” which closes June 7, and will kick-off the Center’s annual sale of ceramics seconds, slightly imperfect works of art at reduced prices, both of which support the Center’s award-winning programs. Throughout the month of May, the Art Center is exhibiting the colorful artwork created in these Accessible Art Programs within Main Line Art Center, as well as at Ludington Library, Bryn Mawr Hospital, and Philadelphia City Hall. The Accessible Art Exhibitions feature work by participants in the Art Center’s Exceptional Art Program for children, adults,
