Old City Jewish Art Center(OCJAC) presents “Art That
Heals,” an exhibit featuring the workof artist Stanley Carr, Jr., runningMarch 4 through March 28, 2016.The First Friday Opening Recep -tion will be held March 4, from 5to 9 p.m. (Followed by a Taste ofShabbat, a Traditional Shabbat Din -ner beginning at 9 p.m.) An Artist’sReception will be held Saturday,March 12, from 7 to 9 p.m. PleaseRSVP.
The exhibit stems from two im -pactful personal issues of Diabetesand Cancer. Having suffered froma childhood learning disability andhaving lost a host of family mem-bers due to cancer and diabetes,artist Stanley Carr, is rising abovehis personal pain and familial trag -edies by turning his experiencesinto beautiful works of art for trans -formation and social change.“My work is reflective of the
emotions, fears and faith I havewitnessed firsthand as these dev-
astating diseases have made a profound impact on my life.” – Stanley Carr, Jr.Creativity and art cannot be hampered by academic labels. In grammar school Stanley
was diagnosed with a learning disability and was unable to attend formal art class. This didnot obstruct Stanley from using his artistic gifts to decorate walls, books and to the dismayof some of his teachers the occasional desk.In 1988, a progressive high school art teacher Francis Chauncy saw one of Stanley’s brown

Artist Spotlight highlights Rhona Candeloro’s “Capturing Light” with a public reception and lecture on March 1
On Friday, March 4, at 7 p.m., the feature-length documen-tary, “1971,” will be screened at the Peace Center of Dela -
ware County First-Friday Free Large Screen Film Series. ThePeace Center is located at 1001 Old Sproul Road, Spring field,PA 19064. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. for light refreshments.
The film tells the story of the Break-In of the Media FBIoffice in March 1971, and the stunning revelations of FBI abus-es and the harassment of the civil rights and anti-war move-ment of the times.
In 1971, the U.S. government was waging an undeclaredwar in Vietnam. The FBI, under direction of J. Edgar Hoover,wielded great power behind the mask of law. It was a time ofwar and fear, hope and dissent.
On March 8, 1971, eight antiwar activists pulled off a stun-ning, nonviolent break-in of an FBI office in Media, PA. Theytook hundreds of confidential files that revealed the exis-tence of the FBI’s COINTELPRO operations: surveillance, vio-lent intimidation, and harassment of antiwar and civil rightsactivists nationwide.
The “burglars” photocopied and published these docu-ments widely, opening the eyes of the public to the FBI’s ille-
gal and unconstitutional conduct. For decades, the identity of the burglars remained secret
until, in 2014, the award-winning book, “The Burglary” by BettyMedsger, came out, revealing names, faces, stories, and back -ground history.
“1971” is the film documentary of this true story, told throughdramatic re-enactments and interviews with the burglars,the author of the book, and some who were subject to FBI spy -ing. It tells the gripping story of ordinary citizens who believedthat exposing the truth was worth taking great personalrisks in a time of fear and war ... a time not unlike now.
The film will be preceded by an opening film short producedby the Brandywine Peace Community, “In the Sights of the FBI:from COINTELPRO to Today’s War on Dissent.” Singer-song-writer Tom Mullian will also perform his song, “NSA BLUES.”
(“1971,” U.S., 2014. 80 min. Documentary. Directed by JohannaHamilton. Written by Johanna Hamilton and Gabriel Rhodes.Music by Philip Sheppard.)

bag sketches and urged him to enroll in his art class once he reached high school. Stanley’s course load of extra classes pre-vented but did not deter Stanley from taking advantage of Mr. Chauncy’s offer. During study hall, gym, lunch and any freetime he could spare, Stanley would escape to the art room. Stanley was able to hone his skills by watching the other stu-dents work and listening to Mr. Chauncy’s critiques. His love for the creative process lead him to study and emulated theworks of Horace Pippin, Purvis Young, Minnie Evans and Norman Lewis.
Like the abstract painter of the 1960s and 70s Alma Thomas who showed artistic tendency as a child and whose art wasaffected by the colors and richness of her early experiences with the rural Georgia landscape, Mr. Carr’s works reflects hisearly artistic beginnings and the pristine rural setting of the Jersey farm land where is grew up. The vastness of his can-vases, the hues and boldness of his pigmentations all reflect the untouched rural Jersey setting of his childhood.
Stanley works in acrylic, oil, and ink. He used both brushes, and his fingers to create his most recent body of work.When asked to describe the driving forces behind his work Stanley wrote the following quote, “I allow my soul to speakthe loudest through my hands. The voice that emerges from my fingertips allows me to share the passions that compel meto emote on canvas.”
Since 2006 The OCJAC has been sharing the universal messages of Judaism through thestudy and appreciation of the arts in their diverse forms and expressions.

John A. Benigno, of Wynnewood, PA, has been awarded the Luminous Land -scape Grant for his Adobe Church Project (www.luminous-endowment.org/
grants/past/1/785). The grant is sponsored by Luminous Landscape (https://lumi-nous-landscape.com/). It is awarded twice annually, and may be used to com -plete a body of work, mount an exhibition, publish a monograph, book orportfolio. It may also be used to support travel to a specific location for a spe-cific purpose. “I am most grateful to the Luminous Endowment for Photog -raphers for this opportunity to continue working on my New Mexico AdobeChurch Project,” said Benigno.Benigno has been working on his Adobe Church Project since 2004. His
goal is to contribute a body of work that inspires the preservation and ren-ovation of adobe churches throughout New Mexico. Unfortunately, manyold churches have been replaced, fallen into disrepair, or been plastered overwith modern building materials. According to Benigno, “My mission is tophotograph as many churches as possible while still overlaid with their orig-inal mud and straw. My hope is to complete this project before the remain-ing examples simply fade away, and before modernization and neglect resultin a disconnect between parishioners, their churches and their traditions.”
The Luminous Endowment for Photog raphersis based in Indianapolis, Indiana and oper-ates worldwide. It is a non-profit charitablefund created by Michael Reichman to providefinancial assistance through grants to deserv-ing photographers and their projects fromaround the globe. The Endowment is basedon the principle of “Paying it Forward.” Through the Endowment, Reichman creat-
ed a global community of those who can give,along with those who will benefit from thegenerosity of others. His hope is “that a world -wide community of photographers, corpora -tions, and other supporters of the art and craftof photography will generously endow andfurther the goals of the Endowment.”Benigno and his wife, Christine (ne: Drennan
and a native of Bryn Mawr) have lived in Wynne -wood some 30 years. He has worked as a fine art photographer for the past 20 years. He teaches photography at the MainLine Art Center in Haverford, PA, and his work can be seen at The Chestnut Hill Gallery on Germantown Avenue in Phila -delphia Amie Potsic, the Main Line Art Center’s Executive Director, is very excited about the grant. “We are so proud to have
John Benigno in our community as a Teaching Artist and Professional Artist Member at the Main Line Art Center. Hisexpertise in photography and the quality of his own artwork make him an active member of our community and a strongcontributor to our Photography and Digital Media programs. As we grow our Digital Media program and gear up for oursecond annual Panorama: Image Based Art in the 21st Century festival in September 2016,we look forward to featuring John’s work in upcoming exhibitions and sharing his photo-graphic knowledge through our photography class offerings.”This Spring, Benigno will be teaching “Photography in the Field: Capturing a Slice of Life”
at the Main Line Art Center in Haverford. Through a combination of classroom discussionand field trips, students will learn how to capture real-life moments in real-life settings.

For many years now, MaestroValentin Radu, artistic di -
rector and founder of Vox -Ama Deus, has collaboratedwith an elite roster of musi-cal colleagues to presentintimate afternoons of musicfrom the genius of two ofhuman kind’s undisputedcreators of timeless musicalbeauty, Johann Sebastian Bachand George Frideric Handel.
On Sunday, March 6, at 5p.m., in the bucolic Glad wynePresbyterian Church, 1321Beaumont Drive (off of MonkRoad) in Gladwyne, PA, Bachand Handel will be celebrat-ed in sparkling selectionsfrom their vast catalogue ofuniversally celebrated music.For this program, MaestroRadu will be joined by twoexceptional VoxAmaDeus artistsand colleagues: bravura mezzo-soprano Karina Sweeney andvirtuosic flautist Nicole Lam -bert.
Johann Sebastian Bach livedfrom 1685-1750 and nevertravelled outside his home-land of Germany. In contrast,Bach’s compatriot GeorgeFrideric Handel (1685-1759) was widely travelled and spent the majority of his creative lifein England—becoming the composer who established the quintessential British sound inmusic and invented the famed English oratorio!
A sampling of the music to be performed by Karina Sweeney and Nicole Lambert willinclude the following highlights:
Ms. Lambert will demonstrate her virtuosity and audience-appealing style in a perfor-mance of Bach’s well-known Flute Sonata in b minor, Bach catalogue number BWV 1030.
Ms. Sweeney’s dazzling mezzo-soprano vocal artistry will be on display in several selec-tions, including sacred music arias by Bach: The “Laudamus te” from his famed Mass in bminor, BWV 232, and the sparkling “Et exultavit” from the Magnificat in D Major, BWV 243.Ms. Sweeney will also sing one of the most famous of all classical music compositions,George Frideric Handel’s opening aria from his opera Serse (or Xerxes), HWV 40, Ombramai fu—which is often simply (and a bit inaccurately!) referred to as “The Largo fromXerxes.”
Advance ticket sales of $25 for adults, $20 for senior citizens, and $10 for students-chil-dren (plus box office fees), can be made by telephone, weekdays between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m.;call 610-688-2800. Or go online anytime at www.VoxAmaDeus.org and follow the prompts.
Tickets will be on sale at the door prior to the concert on March 6, beginning at 4:15 p.m.Tickets will be sold at $30 for adults, $25 for senior citizens and $10 for students-children.Seating is unreserved.
Maestro’s Live Notes: An avid raconteur, Maestro Valentin Radu will, throughout the con-cert, engage the audience with informative “Live Notes” concerning the composers, theirtimes and the works to be performed.
The concert duration is approximately 75 minutes with no intermission.

Penn Vet’s Ryan Hospital is hosting the 7th annual National Service Dog Eye Exam eventsponsored by the American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists (ACVO) and Merial.
On May 6, 8, 12-16 and 21, Penn Vet’s Dr. Gustavo Aguirre, professor of ophthalmology;Dr. William Crumley, staff ophthalmologist; and Dr. Stephen Gross, staff ophthalmologist,will join 190 ACVO board-certified ophthalmologists conducting eye examinations across thecountry.
The ACVO/Merial National Service Dog Eye Exam is a philanthropic effort generously pro -vided to the public by the board-certified Diplomates of the American College of VeterinaryOphthalmologists, who donate their time and services to provide free ocular exams to quali -fied service animals.
As a way to serve dogs who dedicate their lives to serving us, these exams are free to reg-istered service dogs across the United States and Canada. Through these efforts, service doghealth can be improved and potential disease averted.
How to Make an AppointmentTo qualify, animals must be “active working animals” that were certified by a formal train-
ing program or organization or currently enrolled in a formal training program. The certi-fying organization can be national, regional, or local in nature.
1. Owners/agents for the animal(s) must FIRST register the animal via an online registra-tion form at www.ACVOeyeexam.org. Registration ends April 30.
2. Once registered online, the owners/agents will receive a registration number and willbe allowed access to a list of participating ophthalmologists in their area.
3. Owners/agents may then contact Ryan Hospital’s appointment desk (215-746-8387) toschedule an appointment
What Veterinary Ophthalmologists Look for During the ExamDuring the complete ocular exam, veterinary specialists look for problems including red-
ness, squinting, cloudy corneas, retinal disease, early cataracts, and other serious abnor-malities. Early detection and treatment are vital to these working animals.
The American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists® is an approved veterinary special -ty organization of the American Board of Veterinary Specialties, and is recognized by theAmerican Veterinary Medical Association. Its mission is “to advance the quality of veterinarymedicine through certification of veterinarians who demonstrate excellence as special istsin veterinary ophthalmology.” To become board certified, a candidate must complete a Doctorof Veterinary Medicine degree, a one-year internship, a three-year approved residency, andpass a series of credentials and examinations.

What did it mean to our
grandparents? What will it
mean to our grandchildren?
WHAT WAS IT LIKE FOR OUR
ancestors to say goodbye to the shtetl, to set
out to discover new lives for themselves, along
with all of the liberties the free world had to
offer? At the dawn of the enlightenment,
how did our parents adapt their Judaism
to the developments of a modern age?
And what can we learn from their
struggles, in order to connect
more deeply with our own
Jewish identities?

The Friends Free Library at Germantown
Friends School celebrated National Library
Week by asking library visitors (students, em -
ployees, parents and community members) to
share how libraries have changed their lives.
“It has been so much fun to hear all of the
different stories,” says library assistant Kath -
ryn Murphy. People wrote on a dry-erase sign
and shared a “selfie” photo to the nationwide
hashtag campaign #NLW14 #LivesChange.
The stories included a high-school student
recalling memorizing her library card number
before she knew her phone number, a pre school -
er writing that reading books about dinosaurs
makes him feel like he is “living with the dino -
saurs” and a community patron sharing his dream
of one day becoming a librarian. “Dreams are
discovered in libraries and libraries provide a
path for those dreams to come true,” says Murphy.
Kackie St. Clair, head of the Friends Free Library,
says, “Libraries are a place to connect your
knowledge and your curiosity to the worlds be -
yond the library walls; and a much-needed place
for some peace
and quiet.”
At the FFL, the
staff assists com -
munity mem-
bers with com-
puter skills, writ -
ing resumes and
filling out job
applications.
The also get to
know and help every student. “These connections may be small but they are significant in
building a sense of community and belonging,” says Murphy. “Libraries provide endless
resources and support—for FREE! That is a beautiful thing.”

According to Devon PrepJunior Matthew Szkolnicki
of Springfield, “There’s noth-ing like the satisfaction of be -ing able to save a life.” That’swhy he and nearly 50 DevonPrep students, teachers, andparents participated in a re -
cent Red Cross Blood Drive sponsored by the school’s ChristianAction Program (CAP). Forty-six pints of blood were collect-ed during the Drive, which have the potential to save morethan 125 lives.
Devon Prep has sponsored a Red Cross Blood Drive formore than 20 years, collecting nearly 800 pints of blood inthat time. This was the second time Szkolnicki donated blood,but this time he made a Double Red donation. Double red is
similar to a whole blood donation, except a special machineis used to allow the donor to safely donate two units of redblood cells during one donation while re turn ing plasma andplatelets to the donor.
Szkolnicki is happy to have participated in the Drive againand feels it is an important thing to do. “I did it because youcould save a life or maybe multiple lives,” the eleventh grad-er explained. “It’s something anyone could do. It doesn’t reallyhurt and within a couple hours you’re back to normal.”
Some four million people give blood each year through theAmerican Red Cross, making it the largest supplier of bloodand blood products in the United States. For more than 50years, the American Red Cross (http://www.redcross.org/)has been an innovator and a leader in transfusion medicineand research. Started as a relief effort to provide lifesavingplasma and blood during World War II, Red Cross Blood Ser -vices has grown-collecting and distributing nearly half thenation’s blood supply and many therapeutic blood products.
Devon Prep is a private, Catholic, college preparatory schoolfor young men in grades six through 12 conducted by thePiarist Fathers and located on the Main Line. Nearly 300 stu -
dents from the five county
Philadelphia area attend DevonPrep which sits on a 20 acrecampus on North Valley ForgeRoad in Devon, Chester County. For information, call 610-688-7337 or visit www.devon-prep.com or www.facebook.com/devonprep.

“The best possible way forstudents to understandanother culture is to hear direct-ly from people involved withit,” says Germantown FriendsSchool history departmenthead Kate Hanssen. The stu-dents in her GFS January-Termcourse titled “The Iraq Warthrough the Voices of Civiliansand Soldiers” had the oppor-tunity to speak with a persondeeply immersed in Iraqi cul -ture, when the U.S. Ambas -sador to Iraq Stuart Jonesspoke with the class over Skype.“This was clearly a uniqueexperience for all of us,” saysHanssen. It was also a per-fect fit for her course, whichset out to “explore the humanimpact of the Iraq war andtry to gain a full and nuancedunderstanding of the conflict.”Her students prepared “pol -ished and thoughtful” inter-view questions about topicsincluding: “[The Ambassa dor’s]work with Prime Minister Al-Abadi, expectations for the defeat of Daesh [ISIS], the treatment of religious minorities, powervacuums left in Iraq following the fall of [Saddam] Hussein, corruption in the Iraqi government and military, and the rolethe US government should play in Iraqi military forces.”GFS senior Addie McKenzie, whose parents attended University of Pennsylvania Law School with Ambassador Jones andinitiated this opportunity for the class, said, “Ambassador Jones had many interesting things to say about Iraq. His posi-tion gives him a great deal of insight into the country. He was candid with his answers and willing to talk about whateverwe asked him.”Jones told the students, “It is a very exciting time to be here [in Iraq]. Every day, I am eager to engage in the day-to-daybusiness…and grapple with the larger issues.” Those issues include: low wages, limited supplies of food, clothes, blan-kets and hygiene products, a shortage of electricity, a need for more schools and hospitals, and many others.

Craig Sellers, Head of Friends’Central School, announcedrecently that Friends’ Centralalumnus Rich Ulmer ’60 andhis wife, Bev, have pledged$1 million dollars to bring tolife the Lower School LightLab, a transformative spacethat will feature four distinctstudios for innovation and cre-ation. The gift honors Rich’sparents, Audrie Gardam Ulmer’37 and Walter Ulmer, and hissister, Carolyn Ulmer Gorman’66. Designed to spark the imag-ination, creativity, and prob-lem-solving mindset childrenwill need to succeed in a rapid-ly changing world, the LightLab felt like the right place forthe Ulmers to put their gift.Rich shared, “I love the ideaof starting young, of expos-ing little kids to new and ex -citing materials and ideas andletting them explore, askingquestions and looking foranswers, but not necessarily
finding them. It’s really about the process of learning, not an end product. Bev and I iden-tified with the purpose of this project and feel a connection to the idea of a Light Lab, a placedesigned to light up inquiry-based learning as soon as possible in a child’s life.”Sellers was thrilled to share this exciting news of the Ulmers’ generosity with the com-munity. He commented, “The Ulmer Family Light Lab puts Friends’ Central at the very fore-front of education. In addition to providing a facility that has no equal for our youngest stu-dents, we see this as a visionary investment in teaching and learning that recognizes the im -portance of making, designing, prototyping, and the like as integral to great education. I amthrilled that Rich and Bev are making such an incredible contribution to transforming theFriends’ Central experience for years to come.”The Ulmer Family Light Lab will open in September 2016 and will provide new opportu-nities for Lower School students in four areas: Natural Sciences—year-round gardening,cooking, and aerodynamic experiments; Fabrication—woodworking, 3-D printing, and sew -ing; Media & Computing—film editing, stop-motion animation, and robotics; and Design—

Produced and directed by Philadelphia stage newcomer, Bill Arrowood, who opines, “Wewanted to put on a show that would be a special send off to the Playhouse, but that was asmuch fun for us to be in as for the audience to watch. This stage may be going dark soon,but we want to leave the audience laughing. because the exception of the ice cream sun-dae, laughter is possibly man’s greatest gift to his fellow man.”The ensemble cast includes Heather Plank, Joshua Kirwin, Michael Mallon, Christine Doidge,
James Miller and Alexandra Rush, (who previously was featured at Society Hill as part ofLarry McKenna’s “New Voices Cabaret”), each taking on multiple roles throughout fun-filled evening of entertainment. Jazz trio Buster will offer musical entertainment beforeand during the performance.The show is sponsored in part by the South Street Headhouse District and the John S. &
James L. Knight Foundation for the Arts. The show was chosen for the grant as an impor-tant moment in the cultural history of theatrical arts as the last show in this historic the-atre. The John S. and James L. Knight Foundation is dedicated to supporting “transforma-tional ideas that engage communities and foster the arts.”Following the closing of the Playhouse, the show will go on, as “Liberty City Radio Theatre”
will be looking for a new venue to bring their unique style of theatre to Philadelphia audi-ences.Details are available at www.societyhillplayhouse.org or at www.libertycityradiotheatre.com.

“Many countries suffer under their oil wealth rather than benefit from it,” he observed.“Iraq needs a sense of nation… They need leaders who will put aside their biases and com-mit themselves to an Iraq that is independent and sovereign.” The discussion had a big impact on the students. “Following the Skype session, a couple
of students expressed an increased interest in foreign service,” says Hanssen. “We are for-tunate to be in a school with easy and consistent technology access, which enables con-versations of this type. These discussions allow us to empathize with those who experi-ence conflict, and connect more closely with world events.”“Students are benefitting from technology that can connect with people across the globe,
adds McKenzie. “It helps us, as American students, to truly understand the repercussionsof events around the world.”

Two groups are taking the Schuylkill Scrub to a new level by collaborating with peoplefor a cleaner environment.
PennDOT’s Schuylkill County Maintenance District is engaging volunteers to keep the river’sheadwaters pure. Over 100 miles away, Dave Brindley of Not in Philly is recruiting locals topick up litter that might otherwise wash into the river’s estuary. Both are hosting cleanupevents throughout the entire Schuylkill Scrub campaign.“I am organizing volunteers because our block has many children on it,” said Brindley. “I
hate the hopelessness that trash-strewn streets convey to them.”The Schuylkill Action Network leads the Schuylkill Scrub to connect people with litter
cleanups, and to foster new ones. Events span the entire Schuylkill River Valley from March1 to May 31.Tom Davidock and others at the Partnership for the Delaware Estuary have helped to
expand the Schuylkill Scrub since 2010. One way they have done this is by collaborating withlike-minded groups. These range from local environmental advisory councils to Keep Penn -sylvania Beautiful. Another way is offering prizes and support.“Anyone who leads a cleanup can enter to win free prizes along the Schuylkill River, like
a moonlight kayaking tour,” said Davidock. “They can also take advantage of free trashbags, gloves, and vests donated by PennDOT. And free or discounted trash disposal is avail -able for Pick It Up PA Days, from April 16 to May 9.”Visit www.SchuylkillScrub.org to join or register a cleanup. Locals can even use this web-
site to suggest and find places in need of cleaning. For information, call Virginia Vassalottiof the Partnership for the Delaware Estuary. She can be reached at 800-445-4935, extension121.The Schuylkill Action Network protects and restores Schuylkill waters through partner-
ships. It does this by collaborating with organizations, businesses, and governments.Together they work to improve 2,000 square miles of land draining to the Schuylkill River.This makes it the largest influence on the tidal Delaware River and Bay, otherwise knownas the Delaware River estuary.

an accomplished

Chanlan had a
deep passion for
music that was transparent and vibrant. He was involved
in not only solo performances, but chamber groups and
intensive summer camps. His hard work paid off when he
was the youngest soloist chosen to perform on the stage
at the Kimmel Center as a platinum winner of the NBS Golden
Key Competition. In addition to his heart for playing, he was
also dedicated to the scholarship program that supplement-
ed his lesson fees. To show his appreciation, he took initia-

Limón Dance Company celebrates its 70th Anniversary Tour with three of founder/chore -ographer José Limón’s most celebrated works. Known worldwide for its dramaticexpression, technical mastery and humanistic approaches, the company performs
“The Moor’s Pavane,” “The Winged” and “Mazurkas” on the NextMove series at the PrinceTheater, 1412 Chestnut Street, March 9 - 13, 2016.Performances take place Wednesday, March 9 at 7:30 p.m.; Thursday, March 10 at 7:30
p.m.; Friday, March 11 at 8 p.m.; Saturday, March 12 at 2 p.m. and 8 p.m.; and Sunday, March13 at 3 p.m. Tickets cost $20-$57 and can be purchased in person at the Prince Theater BoxOffice or online http://princetheater.org. NextMove at the Prince is presented by Dance Affiliates,a leading presenter in world-class dance, under the direction of F. Randolph Swartz.The program opens with “Mazurkas” (1958) to Frederic Chopin’s music and is a tribute
to the heroic spirit of the Polish people in the face of annihilation during World War ll. Thisten-section work showcases the full ensemble as well as solos, duets, trios and quartet momentswith women in cream-colored dresses and men in black trousers and shirts. As a repetitivemotif, a soloist emerges from the group as a constant reminder of the individual’s desire tobe resilient.“The Moor’s Pavane” (1949), Limón’s response to Shakespeare’s “Othello” captures the
drama and passion of a timeless tale of about love, jealousy and betrayal and was built ona Baroque social dance. In the original production, José Limón played the Moor with LucasHoving dancing the protagonist role of Iago. Set to Henry Purcell’s stirring score, with stag-ing by Carla Maxwell (artistic director of LDC), “The Moor’s Pavane” has been heralded asLimón’s most enduring work and has been performed by companies worldwide includingRudolf Nureyev in the 1970’s.“It was José’s longtime dream to create a dance that would stand on its own without music,
and he made quite a few” said Ms. Maxwell, an original member of the original cast of “TheWinged” (1966). Before its premiere Limón added incidental sounds of birds and jazz snippetsby Hank Johnson. In reworking the piece in 1995 for The Juilliard School, Jon Magnussenwas commissioned to create a new score. This work looks at our feathered friends—real,imaginary and mythical from Pegasus to the generic bird capturing lightness and flight asflocks of dancers swoop, dive and circle.In addition to the performances, the company will conduct a Student Discovery performance
on Friday, March 11 at 10:30 a.m., and a free master class on Friday, March 11 at 1 p.m., DrexelUniversity Dance. The company will offer two post performance chats for ticket holders onThursday and Saturday (2 p.m.) immediately following the performance. For outreach infor-mation contact [email protected].
Known worldwide for its dramatic expression, technical mastery and humanisticapproaches, Limón Dance Company performs “The Moor’s Pavane” (shown), “The Winged”
and “Mazurkas” on the NextMove series at the Prince Theater, March 9 - 13, 2016.
