The Arts Career Path Program concluded last semester with a site specific performance by our dance class. The dance students worked with their instructor from Heidi Duckler Dance Theatre to create and execute the performance on the stairs of the library’s reading room. The Mayor of Inglewood, James T. Butts Jr., even came to give some opening remarks. We’re so glad to have his support of arts education. We have another exciting performance in store for this semester too!
The after school dance class with Heidi Duckler Dance Theatre continues this semester as well. The entire dance class went on another field trip to Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook to do a workshop on a fish sculpture with professional dancers. A few girls even performed the dance they learned in the workshop for the public the next day at Heidi Duckler Dance Theatre’s Ebb & Flow Festival. It’s so fantastic that they’re not only receiving instruction and collaborating with professional dancers but also getting the chance to perform what they’re learning. Way to go girls!
The Media Arts career path recently went on a field trip to the Annenberg Space for Photography in order to view two exhibits, Identity by Timothy Greenfield-Sanders and #girlgaze. Identity showcases people who have dominated their field of work despite demographic prejudice. This showcase empowered our girls to not give on their dreams despite what people around them might say. They enjoyed the simplistic nature of the pictures that further enhances powerfulness of the picture.
#girlgaze is social movement that empowers female photographers and gives them a platform to showcase their work. This work allowed the girls to see what could be done by people similar to them. They were also able to post some of their own #girlgaze pictures and contribute to the movement.
