Our Art Start program for preschool and daycare children is growing to include special, open playtime on Wednesday mornings from 9-11 am in the Buell Children’s Museum. It is our hope that parents will now have another opportunity to join their children in creative play. Friday Arts Academy offerings have also expanded to include low-cost instrumental music lessons for 4th-8th grade students thanks to a generous donation of instruments from Colorado Public Radio and maintenance from Marck Time Music in Pueblo. With classes beginning January 10th, these small groups will be instructed by CSU-Pueblo Music Education student teachers. Starting in February, the Arts Center will partner with the Pueblo Library District to visit classrooms, offering a combined literary and art experience based on the Babymouse book series by authors Jennifer Holm and Matthew Holm. Our ongoing partnership with Kaiser Permanente resumes in January with a new production. Choose Your Life, is a performance where the actors model effective ways in which children can confront and overcome bullying. The Amazing Food Detective resumes during the week of spring break, teaching the audience about healthy eating choices. Working with Pueblo Community College continues to yield enhanced offerings in the Buell Children’s Museum, as well as open education classes for adults, such as the popular silversmithing class. And a new writing circle is forming for individuals who would like to share ideas and efforts in their craft. The group will meet weekly in the Ryals Library at the Arts Center. All this, plus fabulous exhibitions and performances detailed in the following pages. We hope you will take the time to participate at the Arts Center this winter and spring. Sincerely,
Rochelle Spoone Interim Executive Director & Controller

Leading
the way
Participation in the Sangre de Cristo School of Dance and Sangre de Cristo Ballet offers an experience that can best be described as the development of self. As Artistic Director Stephen Wynne explains, each student’s growth as a human being is just as important as their growth as a dancer. Learning takes place on all levels, and the school provides a safe place in which to explore one’s self through dance. “We have built a community here,” says Wynne. “This is a place where families come together and share. People on every level of involvement – from parents to stage hands to the lead dancers – are excited to be a part of a bigger experience and support one another at all times.” “As a parent, I feel blessed to be able to see my children grow and mature as performers under Mr. Wynne’s direction.” – Carrie Archuleta, parent of student “The Sangre de Cristo School of Dance is truly exemplary; passionate and competent dancers walk these halls and work to their potential under the guidance of Mr. Stephen Wynne.” – Tiffany Grant, community participant/vocal artist “We are so pleased and excited to have our daughter involved in the Sangre de Cristo School of Dance. The level of instruction and the professional atmosphere is very conducive to bringing out the best in all of the students. Mr. Wynne’s artistic vision...has raised the bar for dance instruction in southern Colorado.” – Tim Deibler, parent of student “At first I would never have seen myself ever participating in the Nutcracker, but the experience has been amazing. It has taught me more about the enjoyment of the arts than I ever thought it would. The School of Dance is a place where students are challenged to be better every time we enter the studio.” – Chad Figgins, community participant/dancer “All the dancers treat me like I’m family. No matter how hard something gets, I know to never give up.” - Marco Rodriguez-Sena, dance student “We enjoy the fact under the direction of Mr. Wynne, our daughter Abagail is learning the art of ballet and not just steps for a recital.” Amy Corsi, parent of student Learn more about the School of Dance and classes your child can take in the Arts Center Winter/Spring 2014 Class Schedule included with this issue, or go to www.sdc-arts.org/currentdanceclasses.html.

Libby Barbee JAN 11-MAR 29 Opening Reception FEB 7 | 5-7 pm Regional Gallery
Featured artist, Libby Barbee, brings new art to fill the Regional Gallery to show in conjunction with the Hoag Gallery’s Art+Science exhibition. At the root of Libby’s art lies a fascination with the emotional, psychological, and cultural implications of place. She is fascinated by the human ability to manipulate and be manipulated by an environment and revels in the often confusing and multifarious mixmatches of meanings and associations that cling to particular places. From interactive sculptures to images of western landscapes constructed from fragments of cultural debris, her work explores the dynamics that emerge from the interstices where people and place collide.

After Candy Chang lost someone close to her, she was inspired to remind herself and others what was really important in life. With Chang’s project, public spaces are suddenly taken over by spray paint and chalk, begging passers-by to finish the sentence “Before I die I want to _____ .” Her highly successful project has been created all over the world in more than 60 countries and almost as many languages, tying us all together with one common thread, while showing us that our shared spaces can help us make sense of the beauty and tragedy around us.

Science and art naturally overlap. Both are a means of investigation. Both involve ideas, theories, and hypotheses that are tested in places where mind and hand come together—the laboratory and studio. Artists, like scientists, study—materials, people, culture, history, religion, mythology— and learn to transform information into something else. Collaboration between the arts and sciences has the potential to create new knowledge, ideas and processes beneficial to both fields. Artists and scientists approach creativity, exploration and research in different ways and from different perspectives; when working together they open up new ways of seeing, experiencing and interpreting the world around us. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Several teams from Pueblo Community College will create art projects centered on scientific ideas, principles, and theories. The teams will be comprised of students from all disciplines of study, from biology and psychology to the fiber artists and painters of the Fine Arts department. Each team, with 3-4 college students, also has at least one high school student, providing a great learning experience for all involved.
THE MEANDER SERIES Artist David Chappell is an associate professor of physics at the University of La Verne in Southern California. He received his Ph.D. in astronomy from the University of Texas at Austin in 1997. He is interested in connections between science, art, photography, and nature. He began exhibiting his artistic and photographic work in 2005. “The universe has rules. Energy is conserved, opposites attract and life evolves toward increasing complexity. I like my art to follow rules as well. Or, more precisely, I consider the act of creating rules to be my art form. Once the rules are set in motion, I sit back and watch my universe unfold. Rules that produce symmetry, self-similarity and textures are well known. But which rules suggest organic variation, musicality or a sense of playfulness? I experiment with systems that lead to symmetry breaking and variations on a theme in order to explore the boundary between mathematical illustration and evocative art. I seek mathematical rules that generate simple, elegant, expressive and whimsical forms. The Meander series is inspired by early mathematical models used to describe the shapes of meandering JAN 11-MAR 29 streams.

When parents and caregivers engage and encourage children in arts activities on a regular basis from early in life, they are laying the foundation for – and even helping wire children’s brains for – successful learning. (Americans for the Arts, 2002)
î TAKE YOUR TOTS TO THE THEATER Live theater for young audiences connects to the importance of reading, imagination and expression. Attend a performance of Amazing Food Detective over Spring Break sponsored by Kaiser Permanente, or catch Toying with Science on APR 10 at 7 pm. For tickets, call (719) 295-7200.

DID YOU KNOW? Music is a language that everyone can speak. Preferences may differ, but rhythm, tone, and scale are universal. Listening to, playing, and moving to music feeds something in our souls. Now, scientists are showing that it can also feed our brains. This is especially true for children. More and more studies show that children can obtain multiple benefits from studying music. For example, if you want to give your child a mental advantage, encourage them to learn an instrument. “Music simply stimulates parts of the brain that are related to reading, math, and emotional development,” says children’s music specialist Meredith LeVande of MonkeyMonkeyMusic.com in the article 10 Ways Music Benefits Children. Studies released from the Society for Neuroscience find that music training may increase the neural connections in regions of the brain associated with creativity, decision making, and complex memory. Research also found that starting music education early can be even more helpful. “Not only does it require attention and coordination of multiple senses, but it often triggers emotions, involves cooperation with other people, and provides immediate feedback to the student on progress,” said Gottfried Schlaug, the director of the Music and Neuroimaging Laboratory at Harvard Medical School in Music Training Sharpens Brain Pathways (edweek.org).
BEST SELF î î ENROLL YOUR CHILD IN INSTRUMENTAL LESSONS THROUGH FRIDAY ARTS ACADEMY Children in 4th-8th grades can take small group instruction in clarinet, trumpet, percussion, trombone, violin, bass, flute, guitar and piano, with individual lessons also available. This will prepare them to “join the band” in middle or high school. The Winter/Spring 2014 semester begins JAN 10. Each enrolled child receives a voucher for a free instrument rental. See Arts Center Winter/Spring 2014 Class Schedule included with this issue, or go to www.sdc-arts.org/education.html to learn more. î LESS THAN $7/HOUR At $90 for a 13-week course plus $25 materials fee for a music book, stand and instrument maintenance, your young musician can be on his or her way! Scholarships for up to half the tuition are also available, bringing the total cost to only $70 for a full semester of instruction.
Arts and music education programs are mandatory in countries that rank consistently among the highest for math and science test scores, like Japan, Hungary, and the Netherlands.

Warm memories of shared moments with friends and family come to me when I think about my golden cornet in it’s well-worn brown case: playing cornet duets with my dad, falling asleep listening to jazzy tunes as a local brass group practiced in the recreation room next to my childhood home, marching with friends at football half-times and in parades, enjoying the excitement of opening night as the high school orchestra played the score for the yearly musical, and - as a teacher myself - instructing a couple of young students in the basics of playing the trumpet before our rural school day began. A thread of rich experiences and opportunities began for me in the fourth grade when my dad bought two refurbished cornets salvaged from a fire and talked the local piano teacher into giving me trumpet lessons before school once a week. To this day, when I hear a trumpet or French horn solo (especially in a Christmas carol) it sparks an emotion rooted deep inside me that my parents encouraged me to follow. There is a high correlation between the benefits I have personally experienced within music education, and those that have been proven through years of research and study.

DID YOU KNOW? Multiple studies have concluded that curricular and extracurricular art studies and activities help reduce drop-out rates in school.
With the adaptation of more STEM school curriculums (Science-Technology-Engineering-Mathematics) in the United States, we can’t help but wonder if something has been left out. After all, plenty of leading industrialized nations are tops in those fields. Where the United States has always had an edge was with innovation. And innovation can’t happen without creativity. Studio Thinking: the Real Benefits of Visual Art Education states that researchers have found that the arts help students learn to “envision”—that is, how to think about that which they can’t see. The ability to envision can help a student generate a hypothesis in science, for instance, or imagine past events in history class. Some schools have discovered ways to incorporate arts education while meeting the demands of other vital curricula. In Pueblo, we are working with schools to enhance their visits to the Arts Center by introducing pre- and post-visit support. McClelland School has taken their commitment to the arts to the next level by becoming a School-in-Residence this year at the Arts Center. By increasing their opportunities to partner with us, they are showing their students how the arts can boost performance in other areas, like science, math and engineering. We like to think of it as a STEAM model - adding Art to the center of a STEM curriculum. We are now working with other schools to customize residency programs that help boost their education offerings. The Sangre de Cristo Arts Center is a resource for schools, whether public, private or nontraditional, who recognize the benefits of arts education and need a helping hand in providing it. To learn more, call Donna Stinchcomb at (719) 295-7205 or Jackie Henderson at (719) 295-7210.

In 2010, the American Journal of Public Health published a review titled, The Connection Between Art, Healing, and Public Health. The article states how researchers analyzed more than 100 studies about the impact of art on health and our ability to heal ourselves. The studies included everything from music and writing to dance and the visual arts, and the results were startling. “In all 4 areas of creative artistic expression reviewed ... there are clear indications that artistic engagement has significantly positive effects on health,” the review concludes. From decreasing negative emotions and increasing positive ones, to reductions in stress, anxiety and depression, the process of creating art was discovered to be good for you. Life is hectic and demanding for grown-ups. Consider engaging in something creative. If your schedule is really tight, think about combining those good-for-you experiences. For example, If you are trying to get more physical exercise, try a dance class. The Arts Center offers everything from ballet for adults, to country-western swing, and you don’t need any experience to try either of them. When you need to meditate, the pottery wheel can provide a mesmerizing focus point with the added benefits of tactile sensation and a cool end result. Check out some more opportunities below.
DID YOU KNOW? The National Initiative for Arts and Health in the Military seeks to advance the policy, practice, and quality use of arts and creativity as tools for health for military personnel and their families.
