DEAR FRIENDS, I hope you were among the more than threeand-a-half million viewers who tuned in last month to watch Hamilton’s America. The Great Performances special shared the fascinating story of Lin-Manuel Miranda’s creative process for this groundbreaking production in American musical theater – and it was a perfect way to launch our Norm Silverstein PBS Arts Fall Festival. If you missed Hamilton’s America – or wish somebody you know could have seen it – I have good news for you. WXXI-TV will be rebroadcasting the program on December 1st at 9 p.m and December 4th at 7 p.m. It was a year of great programming from PBS and NPR (especially political coverage in an election year like no other in recent memory), but we’re also very proud of our accomplishments at WXXI in 2016. Here are just a few of the highlights: WX XI’s Golden Anniversary: September marked WXXI’s 50th anniversary and we’ve been celebrating ever since. We kicked off our celebration on September 6 (the exact day Channel 21 turned on its transmitter in 1966) with a Founders’ Breakfast for original members. There are still 165 people in the area who have been members of WXXI from day one, and it was incredible to spend the morning with many of them. Other festivities included: our Mister Rogers’ Sweater Drive, our Open House in September (with nearly 5,000 attending), the Wait Wait… Don’t Tell Me! taping at the Auditorium Theatre in October, and “An Evening with Caroll Spinney,” who has played both “Big Bird” and “Oscar the Grouch” on Sesame Street, in November. WX XI’s “Go Public” Campaign: Thanks to a capstone gift of $2 million from philanthropist B. Thomas Golisano, our “Go Public” Comprehensive Campaign goal was met in July. We raised more than $18 million over the past five years to help secure the future of WXXI and The Little. The funds raised have already paid dividends to the community with investments in new transmitters for AM 1370 and Classical 91.5 FM, improvements in the WXXI television signal, new cameras and editing systems, and support for news programming and documentaries. Se cond Opinion and Host Dr. Peter Salgo’s Daytime Emmy Nomination: WXXI’s national healthcare series Second Opinion and its host Dr. Peter Salgo were nominated for a Daytime Emmy® Award in the Outstanding Informative Talk Show Host category. The program, now in its 13th season, continues to break ground on healthcare issues and doctor/patient communication. Ta ilor Made: The Story of Rochester’s Garment Industry: Premiering last February, Tailor Made captured the fascinating story of the local garment industry and the people who contributed to it. It showcased the rich history of Rochester’s clothing industry from Michaels-Stern & Co. to the Button Factory to one of the country’s oldest and most prestigious clothiers – Hickey Freeman. If you didn’t have a chance to see the documentary when it aired on WXXI-TV, you can watch it online at video.wxxi.org. There will be some changes in 2017, as we bid farewell to a retiring Diane Rehm and welcome new voices to WXXI radio. Also, I know many of you will also miss Washington Week host and PBSNewsHour co-anchor Gwen Ifill, who passed away in November after a long battle with cancer. I knew Gwen for nearly 40 years – we met as young reporters covering Maryland politics in Annapolis. She represented the best in journalism and the best of PBS. As you prepare to celebrate the holidays, please accept our sincere thanks for helping to make WXXI the home for extraordinary voices like Diane Rehm and Gwen Ifill. They will be our “guiding lights” as we continue to serve our community in the years ahead. Sincerely,

Norm Silverstein norms@wxxi.org | @normWXXI

NEWS&EVENTS

Q&A WITH A WXXI UNDERWRITER The Strong Museum that opened in 1982 looked very different than it does today. The Strong National Museum of Play is now nearly twice as big, has more whimsical and colorful architecture, and includes more dynamic, hands-on exhibit spaces according to Shane Rhinewald, Senior Director of Public Relations. While encouraging exploration and active play, and housing more than 450,000 artifacts of play (including founder Margaret Woodbury Strong’s original doll collections), it remains an American history and collectionsbased museum. Rhinewald tells us more. Q. What is the process for nominations and inductees for the National Toy Hall of Fame? The Strong receives thousands of nominations for the National Toy Hall of Fame from the public year-round. An internal committee of curators, educators, and others, determines which of the nominated toys best meet the criteria of icon status, longevity, discovery, and innovation. The 12 finalists go to a National Selection Advisory Committee of scholars, historians, educators, and others with knowledge of play and its cultural impact. They help determine the final two to three inductees. Q. How many butterflies currently reside in the Dancing Wings Butterfly Garden? The Dancing Wings Butterfly Garden typically houses between 800 and 1,000 butterflies. They almost envelop you when you walk into the space. It’s quite magical. It’s also home to Chinese button quail, a green aracari toucon, tortoises, koi fish, and even a chameleon—if you can find it hiding! Q. What makes play such an integral part of childhood, and how can parents encourage more play at home? Play supports physical, emotional, cognitive, and social development. Parents can encourage play by simply scheduling unstructured free play time, playing board games as a family, or encouraging outdoor activities. Q. The benefits of play have been proven at all stages of life. Are there any exhibits or activities geared towards adults? The museum provides an all-ages and intergenerational experience, and many of the museum’s exhibits (like the Toy Hall of Fame) offer a nostalgic trip down memory lane. There are also many opportunities for adults to be hands-on, such as the popular eGameRevolution, which explores the history of video games. www.museumofplay.org SHANE RHINEWALD, SENIOR DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC RELATIONS

NPR’s Bob Boilen has had it with the holidays. He storms out of the studio and finds himself taking a Dickensian journey, with visits from some old friends including Carrie Brownstein, Dan Auerbach, Aimee Mann, Ben Folds, and more. And um, they will also play the usual unusual holiday songs.

This special brings together Celtic and African-American tales, as well as original stories on the theme of hope. It features Irish bard Aine Minogue, who’ll share ancient Celtic traditions and mesmerizing harp music. Sparky and Rhonda Rucker, story spinners and musicians from Tennessee, bring in a “High John the Conqueror” tale.

THE BAD KIDS

AN INDIE LENS POP-UP FILM

MONDAY JANUARY 30, 2017 AT 7 P.M. LITTLE THEATRE 240 EAST AVENUE FREE & OPEN TO THE PUBLIC

WXXI’s Indie Lens Pop-Up series presents,

The Bad Kids by Lou Pepe and Keith Fulton.

This observational documentary chronicles one extraordinary principal’s mission to realize the potential of a group of students whom the system has deemed lost causes. Employing a verité approach during a year at the school, the film follows Principal Vonda Viland as she coaches three at-risk teens— a new father who can’t support his family, a young woman grappling with sexual abuse, and an angry young man from an unstable home––through the traumas and obstacles that rob them of their spirit and threaten their goal of a high school diploma. The film will be followed by a panel discussion.

WXXI’S INDIE LENS POP-UP

is a neighborhood series that brings people together for film screenings and community-driven conversations. Featuring documentaries seen on PBS’s Independent Lens, Indie Pop-Up draws local residents, leaders and organizations to discuss what matters most, from newsworthy topics, to family and relationships. Make friends, share stories, and join the conversation. To learn more, visit: WXXI.org/indielens. Presented by ITVS.
