JRA e-newsletter – Spring Fling 2010 update:
Spring Fling 2010
The Junction History Mash-Up was performed June 3 at Humberside and was a rousing success. Inspired and accompanied by Isaias Garcia’s wonderful composition "Junction Suite", 10 students interpreted Junction history through drama and movement under the direction of Neil Ross, to a very appreciative crowd. The performance was captured on video.
On June 5, work by Humberside students went on display at Wise Daughters, where it will remain until late June. The students’ sculpture, painting and amazing altered books are truly original and the skill level is superb.
The silent auction, supported by Junction businesses, was successful in raising about $1200. This adds to the project budget, allowing the artists behind Boom Times Spring Fling to defray their costs and receive modest artists’ fees. We are grateful for the community’s support.
It’s your Junction, It’s our Junction!
