M ain Line Art Center’s upcoming Spring Gala Exhibi- tion & Fundraiser offers stunning professional works of art that you’ll be eager to add to your collection, and can feel truly good about acquiring. Proceeds from sales benefit the Art Center’s Programs, including their award- winning Accessible Art Programs for children and adults with disabilities and at-risk youth. Juried by Pam Regan, owner of Bluestone Fine Art Gallery in Philadelphia, the Spring Gala Exhibition runs May 2 through June 7 and features 2- and 3-D works of art in an array of styles from 101 respected artists from the area. The exhibition opens with a ticketed preview, Paint the Town Red Preview Party, on Friday, May 1 beginning at 6:30 p.m. for early admission, and 7 p.m. for general admission until 10 p.m. Guests are invited to don red, just a touch or head-to- toe, and enjoy creative cuisine, cocktails, music, and dancing, and will have access to silent auctions featuring culinary C omposer, performer Patricia King Haddad, known for her work with the Brazilian group Minas, took a big turn in her music ventures when an old family story about a water jug pulled her out of her sleep in the middle of the night some five years ago. That got her writing a book and inspired the musical drama called La Giara (The Water Jug). “The inspiration came to me like a bolt of lightening,” King recalled. “I started writ- ing and never stopped in those years. I never planned to write a book or a musical, but the mu- sic haunted me non-stop – before I slept every night, and first thing in the morning… I was pos- sessed,” she laughed. Patricia composed the music and lyrics for La Giara, and is thrilled to be performing the show for the second time at The International House Philadelphia on Sunday, May 17. La Giara is a story about longing for the past and the cultures from which we Americans orig- inate, giving voice to the last generation that is losing its cultural con- nections to the past. La Giara’s powerful music uplifts and gives mean- ing to this experience, appealing to many, reach- ing audiences of all ages, ethnic, and socio-eco- nomic groups. Last summer’s pre- miere of La Giara at The World Café Live brought the full house to their feet, identifying with themes that told every one’s family immigrant story, as the music and story-teller extraor- dinaire Charlotte Blake-Alston drew the audi- ence into another world. Patricia has co-led the Minas with husband Orlando Haddad for over 30 years. But of late, she found herself passionately drawn into the world of writing dramatic and comedic music for this immense work, telling the story of her mother’s family’s emigration from Sicily to Philadelphia at the turn of the 20th Century. “Jurassic Park” Movie Marathon Page 9 Dining & Entertainment Pages 6 - 9 Find Unique Events Inside!

Play On, Philly! has commissioned a work by local com-poser David Carpenter, as part of the Mann’s Liberty:

Unplugged! festival commemorating three men and threemovements that have changed the world: Frederick Doug -lass and the abolitionist movement; Martin Luther King,Jr. and the civil rights movement; and Nelson Mandela andthe anti-apartheid movement. Carpenter’s work, “Hallelujahsof the Free,” for speaker and orchestra, uses the words ofFrederick Douglass, whose writings not only fought for theabolitionist cause of the 19th century, but also speak tothe civil rights struggles of today.

“Hallelujahs of the Free” will be one of the pieces per-formed on Saturday, May 2, 2015, 2 p.m. at the MotherBethel African Methodist Episcopal Church, 419 S. 6th Street,Philadelphia. The concert, titled “Three Men, Three Move -ments” is the inaugural concert event for Liberty: Unplug -ged!, the Mann’s 2015 festival celebrating Douglass, King,and Mandela, and their still-relevant messages of freedomfrom slavery, voting rights and human rights. Admissionis free but you must RSVP to reserve a space: http://man-ncenter.org/content/three-men-three-movements-rsvp.

Says Carpenter, “I knew who Frederick Douglass was, butit was not until I read his writings that I gained an appre-ciation of his profound impact on the abolitionist move-ment, which he joined after his escape from slavery in 1838. The words in my piece are drawn mainly from Douglass’s 1852speech, ‘What to a Slave is the Fourth of July?’ In it, Douglass argues that the U.S. Constitution is, as he puts it, ‘a glori-ous liberty document,’ and that all Americans must live up to its spirit, put away their race prejudice, and abolish slaveryonce and for all.”

“There is no better way for our students to deeply understand the impact of activists like Frederick Douglass than through theirown artistic expression,” says Stanford Thompson, Founder and Artistic Director of Play On, Philly! “Mr. Carpenter’s pieceis a powerful way for them to connect with his story, and I believe the audience will feel that energy in his work as well.Working with David has helped our students make new connections with the rich culture many of them come from andone all of us can be proud of.”

David Carpenter’s music has been performed throughout the United States, including concerts at the Aspen Music Festi -val and School and the Oregon Bach Festival, the Brevard Music Center, Selected scenesfrom his opera, The Age of Innocence, were performed in New York City in November 2013.A recipient of a MacDowell Colony fellowship in 2010, Carpenter was composer-in-residencefor the 2012-13 season with the Delaware County Symphony, who premiered his orchestralwork, The River in the Tree. Carpenter holds a Doctor of Musical Arts Degree in composi-tion from Temple University, where he studied with Maurice Wright. For information, visitwww.davidowencarpenter.com.

“Like many people, my inter-est in the paranormal began inchildhood, inspired by experi-ences, extraordinary dreams, anintense interest in astronomy,and a voracious reading of non -fiction and fiction related to theparanormal, occult, science

fiction and fantasy. It was clear to me early in life that the paranormaland the unseen realms are real, and that human beings have encoun-ters and experiences that have been documented since ancient times.Our experiences form patterns throughout history that reveal our con-stant interaction with dimensions of the afterlife, spirit, the Divine, anda wide range of beings.“My interests were always wide-ranging, and that continues to char-

acterize my research and work today. All things in the paranormal and metaphysical realms are interconnected.“My work is oriented around the how and why of our extraordinary experiences. I examine both the light and dark sides

of our experiences, from the mystical and angelic to the invasive and problematic. To know one side, you must also knowthe other,” she concludes.She has done ground-breaking research on the Djinn and their roles in paranormal phenomena, attachments and pos-

sessions, ET abductions, cryptid encounters, Black-Eyed Kids, and ancient aliens and gods.

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.”

Upcoming Programs at New Horizons Senior Center

Seniors Taylor Leonhardt(Media) and Megan Marshall

(Newtown Square) movedRachael Ray to tears on anApril 8 broadcast of her show.Recently, Ray launched 9 Mil -lion Meals, an initiative in tend -ed to raise funds to donate 9million meals for familiesstruggling with hunger in theUnited States. The 9 MillionMeals initiative works withFeeding America and No KidHungry, and with their col-laboration, every dollar raisedhelps provide 10 meals.The cause for Ray’s tears?

Megan and Taylor raised$5,700 – equivalent to 57,000meals.The girls had been interest-

ed in service trips, but mostthey found were out of thecountry, which didn’t workwith their school schedules.Their mothers, Janet Marshall

and Danielle Leonhardt, had seen Ray talk about 9 Million Meals on her show and broughtit to the attention of their daughters.They were immediately taken with the initiative and knew they needed to help. The first

thing they did was put donation jars in local stores, but it didn’t stop there.“We decided to do a bake sale, last minute, before Christmas break,” says Megan.“We wrote letters to family and friends as well, soliciting for donations,” adds Taylor.Janet Marshall said when Megan received a phone call from the show’s producers, she

thought they were just getting a thank-you invite to attend the show, not an appearance ontelevision.“They were so impressed that the girls just did it,” says Janet, explaining that Megan and

Taylor simply sent over the money raised with just a personal note attached. “The produc-ers said so many people only do it to get on the show, and the humility shown by NotreDame’s seniors, in addition to the incredible donation, was inspiring.”They plan to continue raising money for 9 Million Meals.To learn more about the 9 Million Meals campaign, go to http://www.rachaelrayshow.com/food/

PERFORMANCE OF “LA GIARA”Continued from front page

Margaret and Michael Carr of Wynnewood.

Daniel and Rosalyn Heth of Gladwyne are a pair at Tigerfest.

Shivanee Raj of Gladwyne and Metty Vithayathil of Narberthenjoy Tigerfest.

Dr. Jeremy Herrmann and wife, Jennifer, of Merion Station, andAnne Farnum-Messano and husband, John, of Havertown.

Evelyn and Stephen Bennett of Penn Valley.

La Giara’s creation has been a very powerful and personal expression for Patricia and is the culmination of her life’s expe-riences and varied musical background. La Giara is a departure from her main artistry of many years performing BrazilianJazz and a return to her origins in musical theater, classical training, and her family’s Sicilian culture. La Giara mergesItalian Folk music with Opera, Brazilian Choro and Jazz. Throughout, the work expresses themes relevant to gender oppres-sion, migration and the cultural losses that families experienced and transcended in adapting to a new world.Story Synopsis: Hot-tempered Nunzio, as explosive as Mount Etna back home in Sicily, thinks he wears the pantaloni inhis family until his wife and two daughters suddenly disappear, leaving behind a successful family bridal business in Phila -del phia, changing their names, and jumping a cross-country train. Their goal: to get as far from him as possible. When hefinally locates them, with the help of a private detective two years on the case, Nunzio discovers that his female “bimbas”are more resourceful than he imagined, making a successful living in Denver, Colorado. But an incident from Nunzio’s pastin Sicily has determined his misfortune – if only he had thought before rudely cutting in line to the town water fountainand breaking his Aunt Vincenza’s water jug. If only he knew Aunt Vincenza would someday be his mother-in-law. If onlyhe knew it would cause a lifetime family curse. Nunzio must make right and buys an impressive mansion to persuade hisfamily.Musicians: Patricia King Haddad (piano and vocals), Orlando Haddad (guitar and vocals), Jim Stager (bass) and DaveHartl (accordion) with Charlotte Blake Alston (narrator) and John Nicholas Peters, Jessica Lennick, Katie Romano, SteveCarrasco (cast of singers). Artistic Director: John Nicholas Peters. Musical Director: Orlando Haddad,La Giara will be presented at The International House Philadelphia on Sunday, May 17 for a 4 p.m. matinee, with a nar-rator, large ensemble, a cast of singers, all enhanced by historic Philadelphia video projection. International House Phila -delphia is located at 3701 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, PA 19104, call 215-387-5125 or visit www.ihousephilly.org. Tickets:$25 (general public), $20 (I House Members), $10 (I House Residents). Visit www.lagiaramusic.com.

Over 350 WMA parents, faculty, staff and friends, in leis andtheir Hawaii finest, came together for a special night of

socializing, playing games, winning prizes and bidding onauction items, all to support Waldron Mercy Academy and itsstudents, at Tigerfest 2015: “Blue (and Gold) Hawaii,” pre-sented by Kairos Real Estate Partners, on Saturday, March28, at the Philadelphia Marriott West in Conshohocken.Attendees played fun games, won prizes, socialized, andbid on silent and live auction items, of which proceeds ad -vance the mission, add to the student aid fund, support out-reach partners, and provide resources for compensation forfaculty and staff, as well as capital improvements to WMA’sfacilities.For information about Waldron Mercy Academy, visitwww.waldronmercy.org.

Waldron Mercy Academy Supporters Attend the 15th AnnualTigerfest Auction: “Blue (and Gold) Hawaii”

required to win competitions and perform as soloists withorchestras including the Philadelphia Orchestra, Lansdowne,SPSO, Old York, Ambler, Pottstown, Delaware, New JerseyPops, Warminster, West Chester University, Bucks Countyand Olney symphony orchestras. Many students on the pro-gram didn’t just win one of these competitions, but severalstudents set a goal for themselves of winning each and everyone. One of the NBS student performers, 14 year-old cellistAlex Wu, a student at Harriton High school, has won 6 ofthese concerto competitions. Academically precocious students can measure their mathand science achievement by earning a high score in Pennsyl -vania State competitions. Ethan Lee, a 17 year old pianistperforming on May 3 can measure his in being the sole win-ner of the MTNA Pennsylvania State Competition, having theultimate honor of scoring no 1 in our state, as well as win-ning the Philadelphia Orchestra Competition.Two students, Melody Yu and Emma Lo, can measure theirson an international level among young people ages 10-12 com -ing from many foreign countries by winning 1st and 3rd prizerespectively in the Chopin International Competition. Melody,a 7th grader at Baldwin school, performed as a soloist withPhiladelphia Orchestra this March and Emma, a 6th graderat Tredyffrin Middle School, won the SPSO and WarminsterOrchestra competitions, These award-winning students are part of the gifted stu-dent program that allows them to have two one-hour lessonsper week and chamber music. This goal-oriented trainingmakes it possible for these talented and hard-working stu-dents to delve profoundly into the intricate texture of musicand achieve the highest level of technical and emotionalinterpretation possible with many hours of daily practice.Some of the students practice up to five hours a day. AlyssaGabrilovich, a 9 year-old pianist and a 3rd grader at GladwyneElementary School is one of these students. Two weeks ago,her hard work, focus, and dedication made it possible forher to win 2nd prize in the prestigious West Chester Univer -sity Pre-Collegiate Piano Competition age group 9 – 12. Alyssa likes to practice piano, read, play tennis, sing, andswim. “I want to improve every time I practice. Usually Iwork on three pieces every day,” Alyssa says with a shy grin.Each of her pieces are formidable works of piano repertoire—the Beethoven sonata she will play at the Gala concert, aBach concerto she is competing with this Saturday, theMendelssohn’s Rondo Capriccioso she played for the WCUcompetition, and many Czerny studies which build her fin-ger technique. Each composition requires attention to minutedetails. To combat her nerves she started participating inthe weekly performance classes that NBS offers. “I was scaredat the beginning when I started to play for people. Now, whenI play more often, I am not scared anymore,” she says hap-pily.“Mendelssohn is my favorite composer” she shares, “be -cause of the expressiveness of his music. I like the BeethovenSonata I am playing now, because of its energy and contrast-ing phrases.” Her mother is her great support and helps organize Alyssa’spractice habits. She desires Alyssa to practice more efficient-ly, requiring fewer repetitions to achieve the desired results.“Time is precious, and ideally she will not need to repeata passage 15 times. If she really focuses on the details shecan accomplish the same results in three or four repetitions.I am not home until late, and I help Alyssa by writing downprecisely what the teacher says and then writing a schedulefor her with practice times and a list of the sections she needsto work on. Recently, practicing has become an every dayhabit for Alyssa. She finishes her weekly homework packetfrom school in about 15 minutes in one day. Maybe when sheis older and has more homework, she will not have as muchtime to practice as she does now. As for now, I am not think-ing about the future. I studied music as a child in Russia,and Alyssa is doing the same now. I am proud of her accom-plishments and love to hear her play these beautiful pieces.I know that Alyssa loves music, which makes me happy.” To reserve your free tickets for the Nelly Berman Schoolof Music award-winning student concert, visit www.nbsmu-sic.com.

The Nelly Ber-

man School

of Music (NBS)

will hold a mem-

orial concert in

memory of gifted

violin student,

Chanlan Lee, on

January 23, 2009

at 7 p.m. Chanlan

Lee, age 8, pass-

ed away on Dec-

ember 19 due to

a severe case of

viral encephali-

tis. He was the

youngest schol-

arship student

at the Nelly Ber-

man School of

Music and quite

an accomplished

violinist for his

young age.

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-

tive to raise funds, over $300 to be exact, by playing in his

and includes personal corre-

nals of Abigail Adams, Martha

Jefferson, Dolley Madison, and

Sacajawea, among others.

Given annually, the Ivy Young

Willis Award recognizes women

who have made outstanding

contributions in the field of

public affairs.

The American Women in Radio

and Television cited Roberts as

one of the 50 greatest women

in the history of broadcasting,

and the Library of Congress

named her a “Living Legend,”

making her one of a select group

of Americans to have attained

that honor. A member of the

Broadcasting and Cable Hall of

Fame, Roberts also serves on

the boards of several non-prof-

it institutions and on the Presi-

dent’s Commission on Service

and Civic Participation.

Ivy Young Willis was a pio-

neer in teaching and reading

on television, and served on

The League of Women Voters

and the World Affairs Council.

Past recipients of the award

of Philadelphia Academies, Inc.;

Luminous, color rich, re -verse images on glasscomprise Ward Van

Haute’s one-person exhibit,“Prism of Life,” opening Thurs -day, April 30, at the Villa -nova University Art Gallery.

A free public reception tomeet the self-taught Bethle -hem, PA, painter/sculptor willtake place on Friday, May 8,from 5 to 7 p.m., in the artgallery, located in the Con -nel ly Center, 2nd floor, on theVillanova campus. Refresh -ments will be served. Conven -ient and free on-campusparking via the Ithan Avenuegate is available. The exhibitcontinues to June 8.

Being closely watched mightbe one feeling a viewer getsupon stepping into Van Haute’sexhibit. Eyes, lushly coloredand richly lashed, both bod-ied and disembodied, peer outfrom behind the glass on manyof the paintings, which aredone on repurposed window -panes salvaged from roadsidesby the artist.

The exhibit comprises morethan 30 of Van Haute’s mostrecent figurative paintings,some featuring dashes of ab -straction. Carried out on sin-gle- and multiple-pane framedwindows, the sharply-definedand strikingly colored – somealmost psychedelically so –works range from individualportraiture to complex, multi-scene tableau.

In his paintings, Van Haute “focuses on human form in whimsical settings that reflect mycheerful engagement with the world,” says the 36-year-old father of four. While there’swhimsy in his treatments, his subject matter isn’t always so.

In “Sunday Drive with Tony,” a large eye cast in patriotic red, white, and blue beckonsviewers into variegated scenes of youthful protest that hearken to America’s Vietnam era.At 4 x 5 feet and comprising 20 individual panes, “Drive” is the exhibit’s largest, and one ofits most complex works.

It’s difficult to tell what Millie’s about in “Militant Millie and The Peace Grenade.” Herraised, clenched fist and wide footed-stance say ‘defiance,’ while the designer camouflagefatigues with midriff top, wide white belt and matching-color hand grenade, say ‘fashion.’

Whimsy plays large in “Reveille,” an image with a dreamlike quality of childhood exu-berance going awry. Above a blissfully sleeping mother, an airborne tyke in jump mode isabout to use her as a landing pad. Makes one want to shout out “WAKE UP” and ask herwhere she keeps the Ritalin.

Van Haute has worked as a prop master/set dresser on television and theatrical produc-tions in Philadelphia and New York. He learned on his own the unforgiving-of-mistakes artthat reverse painting on glass can be. Beginning in the late ’90s, he worked nights and week -ends for about 10 years before being satisfied enough to exhibit his results.

The long road is all made worthwhile by the results: “Oils on the reverse of glass captureambient light like no other medium and support combination can,” he notes.

The artist holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from DeSales University, Center Valley, PA.The Villanova University Art Gallery is open weekdays from 9 a.m. into most evenings. For

extended and weekend hours, and other information, contact the Art Gallery at 610-519-4612. Selected works in the Van Haute exhibit may be previewed on the gallery’s website:www.artgallery.villanova.edu.
