MILFORD ARTS COUNCIL

Executive Director: Paige Miglio

The Milford Arts Council (MAC) was founded in 1971, when a variety of clubs and groups came together as the Milford Fine Arts Council. In 1984 the decision was made to find a more permanent home for the performances, exhibitions, classes and theater that were scattered throughout the city of Milford. The abandoned eastbound train station was selected and after years of fundraising and extensive renovations, the MAC opened the Milford Center for the Arts in 1995. Now restored, and listed on the National Historic Register, the Center offers a proscenium stage with excellent acoustics, seating for 110, a projection theater system, an exhibition area, classroom, offices, kitchenette and concessions lobby. MAC also oversees the Walnut Beach Firehouse Gallery. MAC and the City of Milford came to an agreement in 2000 to develop the former Fire Company #3 building into a community facility to promote the arts in the Walnut Beach neighborhood. Firehouse Gallery includes some 1,000 square feet of gallery space, a second floor for offices and a residential dwelling unit for MAC's Artist in Residence program. Overall, MAC presents community theatre, live music concerts, exhibitions, classes, workshops, films and lectures. It also partners with fellow non-profits, highlighting their missions and messages to share with the public in a open environment for greater exposure. MAC offers support to Milford students through mini-grants, yearly scholarships through the Chamber of Commerce and Devon Rotary, and mentorship to further artistic exposure, experience and education. Relationships with local businesses have yielded sponsorship and investments, guaranteeing MAC's continued success and keeping ticket prices affordable. See the MAC's website, Facebook page, and Twitter feed.
NEW PLAY FORUM

Artistic Director: Laura Stuart

Launching in the fall of 2018 at Stamford's Palace TheatreThe New Play Forum (NPF) will focus on developing new plays and musicals for the Stamford and Fairfield County region. NPF'S inaugural season will include three 'lab', or barebones, productions and two readings of new works. NPF is planning to produce the musical Samson, the comedic Irish drama Inside Danny’s Box, and the comedy Sketchy are planned. These initial lab productions are staged without full orchestra, sets, costumes, etc. They are seen as pivotal points between initial readings of new works to full production level. As the New Play Forum grows, it anticipates staging a limited number of full productions as well some works in neighboring Greenwich (starting with its second season), but will always be focused on the creation and creators of new works. By including receptions, and opportunities to discuss the works with the creative teams at each performance, the New Play Forum plans to build a community among audience members, subscribers, and those creating the shows. NPF believes this area will provide an especially supportive community for playwrights. As a new organization, NPF is especially interested in finding additional founding sponsorsheroes and subscribers (follow the links to find out more). Donations are tax-deductible (to the extent permitted by law) through fiscal sponsorship by Fractured Atlas. Join NPF for a launching party April 30, UpStage at the Palace, with special guest appearances by several Broadway performers, including Guy Fortt, Frank Mastrone and others. See NPF's website, Facebook page and Twitter feed.

Robbin Zella, director of the Housatonic Museum of Art, discusses in the March Bridgeport Art Trail Newsletterthe impact of the recent expansion into 30,000 sq. ft. of space in Lafayette Hall, including new ceramic, woodworking, and print studios, as well as drawing, painting, sculpture studios and graphic arts computer labs. The new Atrium in the building spans three floors and includes a Percent for Art sculpture by Soo Sunny Park and a sweeping lounge space that features sculptures by Bob Gregson, Victor Vasarely and Herbert Bayer. The collections were re-installed to showcase the art in a more organized and cohesive manner. Public areas around the campus will be dedicated to the display of the African Art Collection, Native American Art, Asian Art or in thematic installations that revolve around a subject, such as politics, portraiture, feminism, etc. The Burt Chernow Galleries offer changing exhibitions every 6 to 8 weeks and provide a platform for education and conversation through the art.
The Maritime Aquarium at Norwalk has received continued accreditation from The Association of Zoos & Aquariums (AZA) for another five years. Of the approximately 2,800 animal exhibitors in North America licensed by the USDA, only 230 – or 8 percent – are currently accredited by the AZA. Brian Davis, president of The Maritime Aquarium, said “Accreditation is an arduous process that requires adherence and evaluation of strict animal-care guidelines to fulfill the high standards of a premier, accredited facility.” The AZA requires zoos and aquariums to successfully complete a rigorous accreditation process every five years in order to be members of the Association. The Maritime Aquarium has been an accredited AZA member since 2013. Connecticut has just two other AZA-accredited attractions: Connecticut’s Beardsley Zoo in Bridgeport and Mystic Aquarium.
New Paradigm Theatre (NPT), has chosen The Connecticut Burns Care Foundation as its nonprofit community partner for its summer production of The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Riding on the heels of its sold-out, multi-ethnic production of Oliver-Reinvented (2016) and Peter Pan (2017) at Fairfield Theatre’s Warehouse space, NPT will continue its “collective impact” productions, bridging the gap between the arts and the local community, with the musical on August 18th and 19th. During the rehearsals and classes, youth will participate side-by-side with Broadway pros to create this production of Hunchback, fulfilling NPT's mission of fostering creative problem solvers, leaders, and global citizens through theatre arts education and productions.

JON PARRISH PEEDE NOMINATED AS CHAIR OF NEH

Artforum reports: Jon Parrish Peede has been nominated as the eleventh chairman of the National Endowment for the Humanities. The announcement comes on the heels of the release of the 2019 federal budget, which proposed eliminating both the NEH and the National Endowment for the Arts. Peede is the brother of Robert Peede, the head of Trump’s advance operations, and a former top aide to Vice President Mike Pence. He joined the NEH in April 2017 as the senior deputy chairman and has been serving as acting director since William D. Adams, an Obama appointee, stepped down in May 2017. Under his leadership, the agency has created new grants in support of infrastructure and cultural organizations affected by Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria. He also expanded the agency’s grant offerings for museum exhibitions and initiatives for military families and American Indians. Prior to joining the NEH, Peede was a publisher of the Virginia Quarterly Review at the University of Virginia and, from 2003 to 2011, held senior leadership roles at the NEA. In addition to serving as counselor to NEA chairman Dana Gioia for four years, Peede oversaw the agency’s funding of literary organizations and fellowships to creative writers and translators, and was director of the NEA Operation Homecoming program, for which he led writing workshops for US troops. Hear today's interview with Jon Parrish Peede on NPR's All Things Considered here.

NEH, NEA, IMLS, ARTS EDUCATION FUNDING INCREASES

Flying in the face of the Administration's request for an elimination of our arts and culture agencies, Congress sent a strong message of unified bi-partisan support in the 2018 omnibus spending bill. The arts and humanities shared in the spending outlay in the $1.3 trillion budget bill. See chart below for full picture. Grantmakers in the Arts points out the significance of the 150% increase to $1.1 billion for the Student Supports and Academic Enrichment Grants (SSAE) program. This was created by Congress, with the passage of the 2015 Every Student Succeeds Act, allowing school districts to make funding decisions without past uses competing with advancing arts education. With this $1.1 billion appropriation many school districts will see their allocations double – providing additional resources under this program.
