“Timeless Moments: The Art of Photography” at the Art Gallery at St. David’s Episcopal Church hotography by John A. Benigno is on display at the Art Gallery at St. David’s Episcopal Church, 763 S. Valley Forge Rd., Wayne, PA. Through his images, both black and white and color, John turns the ordinary into the extraordinary. The exhibit, curated by Susanna Gold, opened July 1. John’s interest in photography began in the mid-1950s when his father brought home one of the first Polaroid Land cameras. John was ill and his father thought the camera would cheer him up. He was right. John still has that camera and has added many others to make photographs ever since. Much of John’s work focuses on the landscapes of Pennsylvania, Lancaster County, New Jersey’s lighthouses, New Mexico, (especially the adobe churches), and Arizona. John also uses his studio where he has created a series called “White Flowers.”

COMPANIONS FOR U NON MEDICAL HOMECARE
Over the years, John’s work has been widely exhibited in universities and galleries in the Philadelphia area, New York, New Jersey, Maryland, and Texas. John’s Adobe Church Project was awarded a grant from the Luminous Endowment for Photographers, and it was recently the subject of a solo exhibit in the Lawrence Hall Gallery at Rosemont College. Additionally, his piece entitled “Chappy Cabanas and Edgartown Light” was on loan to the American Embassy in Kuwait, as part of the State Department’s Art in Embassies program. John describes the role of photographic realism in his art. “My real interest is to capture timeless moments in the landscape, and, if the land has been influenced by man, to stimulate curiosity about how, when and why. To quote Eudora Welty, ‘Place is my source of knowledge. It tells me important things. . . .’” John A. Benigno’s exhibit will remain at the St. David’s Church Art Gallery through September 29.

The All-Star Jazz Trio Brings Swinging Jazz Back to the Boardwalk he swinging All-Star Jazz Trio brings back the ring-a-dingdinging heyday of casino lounge jazz at Girasole restaurant in Atlantic City for a summer-long, Monday night residency. Girasole is located on 3108 Pacific Avenue. For reservations information: 609-345-5554 or https://mygirasole.com/. Shows are at 7:30 p.m. nightly. Co-founded by pianist/educator/author/vocalist Andy Kahn and drummer/author/vocalist/producer Bruce Klauber in 1972 – along with the sensational newcomer, Doug Drewes on bass – the ASJT has appeared all over the East Coast and points North, South, and West, entertaining four generations of jazz and music fans with their swinging, entertaining brand of jazz. An evening with The All-Stars includes songs from the classic jazz repertoire, and standards from the Great American Songbook made popular via artists from Frank Sinatra and Tony Bennett, to Oscar Peterson, Gene Krupa, Louis Prima, Ella Fitzgerald and Nat “King” Cole. Off the stage, Klauber and Kahn have been honored members of the entertainment industry for decades. Kahn, a musical archivist and Jacobs Music Artist-in-Residence, was the
T
composer and producer the number one dance hit, “Hot Shot,” and has just published his first book, “The Hot Shot Heard ‘Round The World,” a BearManor media title. Bruce Klauber is the author of three, ground-breaking books on jazz, and has written and co-produced more than a dozen, award-winning films on the legends of jazz and jazz drumming for Warner Brothers and Hudson Music. He is credited as one of the Technical Advisers on the Oscar-winning film, “Whiplash.” Klauber and Kahn strongly believe there’s a vast audience – of all ages – in the Atlantic City region for what the All-Star Jazz Trio does. “Atlantic City used to be the place to hear the music we play, especially when Frank, Dean, Sammy, Sam Butera, The Treniers, Charlie Ventura, Buddy Greco and all those other greats were on the main stages and lounges,” says Bruce Klauber. “Andy, Doug and I think there’s a great audience at the shore for that type of music, and we wanted to give shore visitors and residence a chance to experience it again, and if they haven’t yet heard anything like it, fall in love with it for the first time.”

Philadelphia Foundation Ardmore Resident David Richman Appointed Interim Executive Director of Pennsylvania Innocence Project Exhibit Showcases What Students Dream of Changing T Art Gallery Exhibit Features Dreamline Program hiladelphia students’ dreams for the future are made tangible through cloth banners and audio recordings in “The Fabric of Dreams,” a new exhibit on display through September 30 at the Community Art Gallery of the Philadelphia Foundation, 1835 Market Street, Suite 2410. Showcased are more than 50 works created by West Philadelphia kindergartners, second-graders and fifth-graders. Dreamline programs serve schools in more than 37 countries and 42 states within the United States. It is run through the Philadelphia nonprofit Cloth Cloud Education. The banners in the exhibit are the result of a program funded by Philadelphia Foundation’s Jubilee International Education Trust and the Queen’s Jubilee Education Fund. They were created at two Laboratory Charter Schools, one at 59th Street and Woodbine Avenue and the other at 53rd Street and Lebanon Avenue. Additional banners envisioning a world without violence were created at this year’s Martin Luther King Day celebration at Girard College funded through an On the Table Philly Activate Grant and in collaboration with the Philadelphiabased Global Citizen organization. “I have a dream that grownups take care of their children, that people will start caring,” says one banner. Another banner notes, “I dream a world where the world would be the same but without guns and the world would be less scary.” Photographs capture the process through which the banners in the exhibit were created, from introduction to a community celebration. The Dreamline program helps students discover meaning in the fabric of their interconnected dreams and to take action on what matters most to them. In the exhibit, each banner is physically connected to others in the manner of Nepalese prayer flags, demonstrating the power of connection. The banners are also connected digitally through Dreamline World’s mobile app, which provides an image of each banner accompanied by an audio recording of the student artist’s voice sharing the message. The banners are tagged to align their perspectives with United Nation’s Global Goals to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all. Visitors to the exhibit are encouraged to scan QR codes to socially share the inspiration the banners provide and to carry the student’s hopes in their pockets long after they leave the gallery space. Images and recordings from the Philadelphia Foundation exhibit and around the world can also be accessed through https://dreamline.org/gallery. A short video of the installation’s opening is viewable www.youtube.com/watch?v= ers13Sn45Vs&feature=youtu.be.

“Alzheimer’s Night at the Phillies” Benefiting Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s
FAMILY V ISION C ARE
July 17 at Citizens Bank Park • Tickets Available Online lzheimer’s Night at the Phillies” returns to Citizens Bank Park the evening of Wednesday, July 17 when the Phillies go up against the Los Angeles Dodgers at 7:05. The Phillies organization is donating a portion of the ticket sales proceeds to the Alzheimer’s Association Delaware Valley Chapter Walk to End Alzheimer’s, which raises funds for Alzheimer’s research, care and support. “We’ve held ‘Alzheimer’s Night at the Phillies’ for more than a decade now,” said Delaware Valley Chapter Senior Director Special Events, Kathryn DiSalvo. “We are grateful to the Phillies, who have long recognized the need to call attention to this fatal disease.” Tickets to the game are still available, but must be purchased through the Phillies Alzheimer’s Association® Night page, (http://phillies.com/alzheimers) using the passcode, ALZHEIMERS. “As many as five-hundred baseball fans have already bought their Phillies v. Dodgers tickets online and will fill the seats at Citizens Bank Park,” said DiSalvo. “It’s a great opportunity to have fun and enjoy the baseball experience, while knowing your ticket purchase will help the nearly three-hundred thousand people in our area who are affected by Alzheimer’s or another type of dementia.” A special video produced by longtime Walk to End Alzheimer’s television presenting sponsor, WTXF-FOX 29 featuring weather anchor, Sue Serio and evening news anchor, Jason Martinez, will be displayed on the Phillies’ Phanavision jumbo screen. “The station has been a tremendous partner for nearly twenty years, providing promotional support for our Walk events,” said DiSalvo. “Along with Walk to End Alzheimer’s honorary chair, Sue Serio, FOX 29 has continued to play a very important role in increasing awareness about Alzheimer’s, the Association, and growing our day-of Walk attendance to more than ten-thousand walkers!” For information, call the Alzheimer’s Association free, 24/7 Helpline at 800-272-3900.
“A
raumatic brain injury (TBI) is the leading cause of death and disability in children and adults up to 44 years of age. Every 15 seconds someone in the US suffers a major traumatic brain injury, and every five minutes someone is forever disabled from traumatic brain injury. Temple University Hospital is participating in a National Institutes of Health-funded, clinical research study that seeks to improve outcomes after TBI. The Brain Oxygen Optimization in Severe TBI, or BOOST-3 trial is a nationwide, phase-3 clinical trial being led by the University of Michigan that aims to learn if either of two strategies for monitoring and treating patients with severe TBI in the intensive care unit (ICU) is more likely to help them get better. Both of these alternative strategies are used in standard care. It is unknown if one is more effective than the other. “In one strategy, doctors concentrate on preventing high intracranial pressure caused by a swollen brain. In the other strategy, doctors try to prevent high intracranial pressure and also try to prevent low brain oxygen levels,” said Michael Weaver, MD, Chair and Professor in the Department of Neurosurgery at the Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University, and Temple’s primary investigator for the study. “The results of this study will help doctors discover if one of these methods is more safe and effective.” The study will include adults and children older than 14 years with severe brain injury requiring admission to the ICU with brain monitoring. Patients who meet the entry criteria will be randomly assigned to one of the two study groups. Because head injury is a life threatening condition requiring immediate treatment, some patients will be enrolled without consent if a family member or other representative is not rapidly available. Every attempt will be made to locate family prior to enrollment to allow them to decide about the patient’s participation in the study. Before the study starts, meetings will be held in the community to provide information, answer questions and get community members’ thoughts and feelings about the study. For more info or to decline participation in the study, the public can visit www.boost3trial.org, or contact Temple’s study staff at 215-707-5483. The BOOST-3 study is part of The Strategies to Innovate Emergency Care Clinical Trials Network (SIREN). SIREN is funded by the National Institutes of Health. The network seeks to improve the outcomes of patients with neurologic, cardiac, respiratory, hematologic and trauma emergencies by identifying effective treatments administered in the earliest stages of critical care. The SIREN Network funds 13 institutions across the country, including Temple, to coordinate and enroll subjects at many additional hospitals. About 45 hospitals will participate in BOOST-3. Four of those hospitals are in the Philadelphia-area, including Temple, Cooper University Hospital, Penn Presbyterian Medical Center and Thomas Jefferson University Hospital.
Youth Suicide Parent Resource Program Youth Suicide is a major health problem facing the youth in our nation, state and communities. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s 2017 Youth Risk Behavioral Survey over ONE out of every FOURTEEN young people in our nation attempted suicide in the previous 12 months. Yet, most people are unaware of the danger suicide presents for our young people. The Parent Resource Program (PRP) is a web-based program designed specifically for parents; however, the information provided is an excellent resource for educators, coaches, youth workers, other adults, and young people. The Jason Foundation (JFI) believes that awareness and education are key elements to preventing youth suicide. The main focus of the PRP is to provide information that will assist parents to recognize changes in behaviors that may indicate suicidal thoughts and know what to do to help an at-risk child. The PRP provides: Youth Suicide Statistics, Common Suicide Myths, Signs of Concern, Higher Risk Groups, Risk Factors & Elevated Risk Factors, What a Parent Can Do, Do’s and Don’ts, Resources for Assistance, Parent and Community Seminar. For information, visit the Parent Resource Program website: http://prp.jasonfoundation.com/. SAY YOU SAW IT IN CITY SUBURBAN NEWS

inger March and J. Rossi present Community Arts Center’s annual Tie-Dye Music Festival on Saturday, July 13 from 2 - 7 p.m. on the side lawn of the CAC, 414 Plush Mill Road, Wallingford, PA. The free, family event, sponsored by Franklin Mint Federal Credit Union, connects the community through music and art with live music all day long, tie-dye activities, vendors, raffles and food. The Tie-Dye Music Festival, now in its 7th year, features a diverse mix of regional bands that cover a variety of genres. Live performances include cosmic folk stylings by jam band Darlingtyn, Americana rock by Out of Order, smooth soul songs by Brian Kors, alternative Americana by Sweet 66 and eclectic blues and old time music from The Obsoleets. In addition to entertaining attendees with great music, the festival provides an opportunity for festival-goers to try their hand at the creative and colorful process of tie-dying. Event t-shirts will be available for $10 and guests can tie-dye them at no additional charge. People may also bring up to 2 items of their own to tie-dye for a $5 charge. CAC staff and expert tie-dye artist Graham Brewer will be on hand to help participants with the tie-dye process and with achieving the desired design and color of their finished products. CAC Executive Director, Paul Downie said, “At CAC, we want to make art accessible to people of all ages and abilities. The Tie-Dye Music Festival is the perfect place for people with no prior art experience to experiment with turning fabric into wearable art while enjoying live music and connecting with neighbors. It’s a very fun family event.” Hot dogs, hamburgers, veggie burgers, drinks, and water ice served by CAC volunteers and homemade pizza made in the CAC’s cob oven by CAC exclusive caterer Jeffrey Miller Catering will be available for purchase during the event. Guests can pay for a chance to win raffle prizes like a framed print of a painting of Jimi Hendrix by George Rothacker, a set of tie-dyed towels, a Vinyl Revival gift certificate and a tie-dye party for 10 and more! The Tie-Dye Music Festival is a rain or shine event; held on the side lawn of the Arts Center or inside the Duke Gallery in the case of extreme weather. Admission is free and guests are welcome to bring their own food. Guests are encouraged to bring chairs/blankets if outside. If inside, chairs will be provided. No pets or alcoholic beverages please.

n Wednesday July 31, The Mario Lanza Institute will hold a dinner at the famous Victor Café (1303 Dickinson Street) to benefit the renovation fund for the Mario Lanza Museum. The museum is approximately two-thirds completed and is expected to re-open at the new location (1214 Reed Street) at some point in the fall of 2019. The dinner will feature a threecourse menu, entertainment by the singing waitstaff and a 50/50 raffle. Mario Lanza was born in South Philadelphia and was an ambassador for all good music. Through his films, concerts, recordings, radio show, and television appearances, he brought great enjoyment to all who experienced his wonderful and exciting talent and introduced many to the world of opera for the very first time. The Mario Lanza Institute is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization whose mission is to help perpetuate Lanza’s dream of aiding young aspiring opera singers through scholarships. To date the Institute has awarded over 260 scholarships with many going on to stellar careers on the world’s great opera and concert stages. It also maintains a museum filled with memorabilia from Lanza’s life and career. Admission is $70 per person with a cash bar. Reservations should be made through the Lanza Institute. The reservation form can be downloaded at www.mariolanzainstitute.org. For info contact the Mario Lanza Institute at 215-238-9691 or info@mariolanzainstitute.org. Donations may be made online at www.mariolanzainstitute.org or by sending a check to Mario Lanza Institute P.O. Box 54624 Philadelphia, PA 19148-0624.
