The Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra, led by Wynton Marsalis, is made up of 15 of the finest soloists, ensemble players, and arrangers in jazz music today. The mission of Jazz at Lincoln Center is to entertain, enrich and expand a global community for Jazz through performance, education and advocacy. JALC believes Jazz is a metaphor for Democracy. 4


Because jazz is improvisational, it celebrates personal freedom and encourages individual expression. Because jazz is swinging, it dedicates that freedom to finding and maintaining common ground with others. Because jazz is rooted in the blues, it inspires us to face adversity with persistent optimism. 5

ADDITIONAL OPPORTUNITIES & ACTIVITIES • On Thursday, October 30th, the

Dance Theatre of Harlem (DTH) kicked off their 3-day residency in Louisville with a Masterclass for 20 appreciative dance students at the Youth Performing Arts School.

• On the evening of October 30th,

several of the Dance Theatre of Harlem dancers held a movement workshop with 30 students in the ArtsReach Dance Ensemble. This ensemble was formed for ArtsReach participants several years ago in order to give more experienced dancers the opportunity to excel in dance. Students attend weekly classes at the Metro Parks Shawnee Arts & Cultural Center and perform several times a year.

• Dance Theatre of Harlem’s first

day of residency ended with The Kentucky Center partnering with IDEAS 40203 to present an introductory movement workshop for the congregation of Bates Memorial Baptist Church.

• IDEAS 40203 received a 2014

creative placemaking grant from ArtsPlace America that focuses on artist engagement in Louisville’s Smoketown neighborhood where Bates Memorial is located, meaning DTH’s interaction with Bates was not only impactful for those who were present, but that DTH also contributed to the overall energy

that is currently enhancing Smoketown through creative thinking and processes. This valuable partnership between IDEAS 40203 and The Kentucky Center is a direct result of the Brown-Forman Midnite Ramble Series bringing DTH to Louisville.

• Two dancers from DTH led the

hour-long workshop for the approximately 20 participants who varied in age from young child to young adult. The workshop took place in the sanctuary of the church, allowing for more than 80 additional people to observe the workshop. The DTH dancers were generous with their time, staying after the workshop to perform a brief duet, take part in a Q&A session, and even sign a few autographs.

• On Friday, October 31st, the Dance Theatre of Harlem presented an 11:00am school matinee lecturedemonstration performance. Thanks to the support of BrownForman, these tickets were offered free of charge to 1900 students and chaperones from the following schools:

** Approximately 65% of students who attended the School Matinee performance are on Free and Reduced Lunch.**

• Atherton High School • Audubon Youth Development Center

• Blue Lick Elementary School • Bowen Elementary School • Brooklawn School • Camp Taylor Elementary School • Central High School MCA • Cochran Elementary School • Coleridge-Taylor Montessori • Jefferson County Traditional Middle School • Jeffersontown High School • Liberty High School • Lincoln Elementary School • Mary Ryan Academy • Maupin Elementary School • Noe Middle School • South Park TAPP • Western Middle School • Wheatly Elementary School • Youth Performing Arts School

• The ArtsReach Dance Ensemble

students who participated in the movement workshop were then given the exceptional opportunity to perform for a lobby full of patrons before DTH’s near sell-out public performance in Whitney Hall on Saturday, November 1st.

likely move in during the summer of 2016. A goal for the capital campaign will be announced later. “The easy part is acquiring the building,� said Hallenberg, adding that LVAA did not have to borrow any money for the purchase. Westerman said the purchase price for the building was covered by two donors who requested anonymity. LVAA purchased the building from a group that included developer Gill Holland and George Parker Jr. That group had purchased the building for the Louisville Film Society, which had plans to fill the building with a multi-screen movie theater along with a cafe, office space and a beer garden. Holland is an LFS board member, and Parker is the organization’s former executive director. “At the end of the day, we were just too young as an organization to raise the needed funds,� Parker said. In recent years, Holland has jump-started an effort to raise about $24 million to revitalize the Portland neighborhood, where the median household income was $22,999, according to 2011 Census data, and Jefferson County Property Valuation Administrator data show that 1 in 10 Portland homes is vacant. He also had launched a design project for architects to create designs for the shotgun houses that are ubiquitous in the neighborhood. “It’s crucially key to have nonprofits involved in the Portland revitalization plan,� Holland said. Westerman said Parker called him late last year about selling the building to LVAA. And he said he hopes LFS could have a future in the building. Both have

had discussions about the younger organization renting space from LVAA. The purchase comes more than two years after LVVA had to abandon its home at the Water Tower on Zorn Avenue after the Louisville Water Co., which owns the structure, announced in July 2011 that it planned to install the WaterWorks Museum in the space. After LVAA left the building in late 2012, it opened a new gallery called PUBLIC the following January on Main Street and created an education studio for its art classes for children and adults at the Clifton Center on Payne

Street. “Working from multiple locations has been a

struggle, but we’ve been resilient,� said board member Steve Wilson, a

partner attorney at Bingham Greenebaum Doll and chair of the LVAA facility committee. In the intervening year, the loss of the Water Tower location has impacted the organization’s budget, said Hallenberg, who estimated that LVAA earned between $50,000 and $60,000 in revenue annually by renting out the space for special events. “Having this new home will give us an opportunity to take control of our own narrative and be visionaries,� Willson added. Westerman said LVAA had looked at two buildings in the NuLu district that includes East Market Street. However, LVAA was outbid by competitors after making offers. Those spaces, he said, weren’t nearly

regardless of their families’ financial background, who demonstrate high abilities in visual arts. Wilma Bethel, an LVAA board member and CFAC art teacher for 40 years, said the extra space in the building will help the organization improve its programs. “We’ll be able to do everything in one spot,� she said. “I think that operating in three different locations takes a toll on the administration.� Leaders also pointed out that LVAA already works in spaces throughout the community not only via its CFAC program but also its Open Doors Community Outreach Program that provides art-making experiences to under-served populations, including at-risk youth, refugees and immigrants, senior citizens and domestic abuse survivors. While the Louisville Fund for the Arts will not be involved in the capital campaign, Fund CEO Christen Boone said she is encouraged by the even stronger role that LVAA can play in community development by being located west of downtown. “I look forward to supporting them and making connections like this in other parts of the community where there are at-risk and distressed neighborhoods,� she said. Hallenberg said LVAA is now planning a precapital campaign cocktail party to show people the building. He said he and other leaders expect to have renderings from architects and other planning details by June 1. Reporter Elizabeth Kramer can be reached at (502) 582-4682.

THE KENTUCKY CENTER VOLUNTEERS FOR

HABITAT FOR HUMANITY

28

On Friday, August 22nd, 2014, eleven Kentucky Center staff members spent their day volunteering at Brown-Forman’s annual Habitat for Humanity Build. Our group helped clean up the work-site, started work on the front porch framing, completed chalk lines to help with siding, worked on blocking for the basement, and unloaded a shipment of OSB board. Our group was incredibly fortunate to have Yolanda Beals, the homeowner, at the site with us all day. Yolanda was a complete joy and a very hard worker. The Kentucky Center is looking forward to participating in Brown-Forman’s Habitat Build again in July of 2015!


On Tuesday, April 21st, 2015, ten Kentucky Center staff members partnered with Brown-Forman and Republic National Distributing Company on a service project at Bernheim Arboretum and Research Forest. The group landscaped, moved mountains of mulch, and planted shrubs along the pathway to Mr. Bernheim’s resting spot. The Kentucky Center was honored to partner with Brown-Forman on this project for the Mayor’s Week of Service. Thank you for including our staff. It was a beautiful day and an incredibly rewarding experience for all involved.
