And welcome to Cotuit Center for the Arts.

We’re excited to have you here sharing some of our most ambitious and varied programming to date.

Whether your cup of tea is a light comedy or theater and art that challenge your comfort zone and point of view, we’ve got you covered. Our 2014 calendar is jam-packed with events and classes. As a matter of fact, we have been so busy we are further expanding our “off-campus” offerings, including our first co-production with Cape Cod Community College’s Theatre Program – the hilarious “Noises Off!”, in April – the first of many new collaborations with the College. We have expanded our educational and arts outreach programs so that we bring our wonderful teachers and programs to more of the underserved youth in our community, and we are working in partnership with dozens of other arts organizations, businesses, and town departments to enrich the cultural lives of the residents and visitors to Cape Cod. My job is to help ensure a healthy and sustainable future for the Center for years to come. The best way to do this is to increase participation and support at the Center. If you are not a member, please join us. If you think you might like to be on the stage, audition! If you are curious, take a class. If you have some extra time on your hands, volunteer. And if you have the means to sponsor a show, an exhibit, a class, scholarship, or upgrades to our theater equipment - then by all means, give me a call at 774-368-0986.

We are only sustainable together. What our participating performers, artists, and volunteers contribute to this campus astounds me. We are lucky to have such incredibly gifted artists here. And we are grateful to have such dedicated and loyal audiences.

So thanks again for coming – look through this amazing program book and earmark your favorite events for the year. Just don’t wait too long to make your reservations. Our good news is that we often sell out. It may not be such good news for you if you wait too long!

2014 THEATER SEASON

Mainstage BLACK COMEDY

by Peter Shaffer February 6-23 A one-act farce in which a desperate sculptor hopes to impress his fiancée’s father by “borrowing” a few antiques, but best laid plans go up in smoke after a fuse blows in his apartment. Once his apartment is in darkness, only we, the audience, can see what is happening. What follows is a frantic romp with unexpected visitors, mistaken identities, and surprises lurking in every dark corner! The result, as you might expect, is chaotic, disastrous – and very funny!

The CENTER OF GRAVITY

MOby dick: the musical

by Greg Hischak April 3-20

book by Robert Longden music and lyrics by Longden and Hereward Kaye June 5-29

This 2011 play by local playwright and poet Gregory Hischak is a historical fantasy that reimagines the lives of the two Wright brothers and their quest to build a heavierthan-air flying machine.

“Hischak has created poetic dialogue that crackles with wit... It’s a fresh, intriguing look at what might have been and what never was.”

–Portland Press Herald

“A dazzling comic ballet.”

– New York Daily News

6

Thar she blows! This cheeky cult hit from London retells Herman Mellville’s epic tale as an all-girls school musical production. A mixture of high camp, music hall-style smut, and wild anachronism overflowing with double entendres.

“Sheer Brilliance and Uninhibited Fun”

The hilarious and heartbreaking story of Big Edie and Little Edie Bouvier Beale, the eccentric aunt and cousin of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, once bright names on the social register who became East Hampton’s most notorious recluses.

“Here’s that shot in the arm for theater lovers who’ve been longing for something bold, haunting and hypnotic to get lost in…

GREY GARDENS is more than a unique and unmissable musical: It’s a gift.”

– Rolling Stone

This 2009 Tony Awardwinning play simultaneously examines the creative process behind Beethoven’s Diabelli Variations and the journey of a musicologist as she struggles with ALS disease and her relationship with her daughter. An extraordinary American play about passion, parenthood, and the moments of beauty that can transform a life.

“It’s a compellingly original and thoroughly watchable play for today that deserves to remembered.”

–Talkin’ Broadway

The timeless story. The classic characters. The unforgettable songs. The popular comic strip heroine takes center stage in one of the world’s best-loved musicals. Join Annie on her spirited journey from a next-tonothing start at an orphanage run by the wickedly funny Miss Hannigan to finding her ideal family with big-hearted billionaire Daddy Warbucks.

“An intensely likable musical!... It has a rare kind of gutsy charm.”

–NY Times

Black Box

Written by Steven Dietz; directed by Carol McManus.

This clever and witty new comedy shows us an unexpected and inventive way to escape the midlife doldrums.

Written by Yasmina Reza; directed by Steve Ross.

This Tony Award-winning script is about two sets of parents who meet to discuss a playground fight between their children in a civilized manner. As the meeting progresses, and the rum flows, tensions emerge and the gloves come off, leaving the couples with more than just their liberal principles in tatters.

Love Letters

Black Box

Main Performance Space

A musical by Jason Robert Brown exploring a fiveyear relationship between a rising novelist and a struggling actress.

Produced in collaboration with the Cape Cod Community College’s Theatre Department. This popular 1982 play by Michael Frayn is a farcical “play within a play” requiring much physical comedy and dexterity of its cast. It is about an ambitious director and his troupe of mediocre actors. Directed

by Michele Colley.

Theater Spotlight A conversation with Greg Hischak, winner of the 2009 Clauder Prize, and author of The Center of Gravity, our April mainstage production

CCftA: What are you currently working on?

GH: I am working on a very difficult play about a ficticious National Park. At the moment I am lost among its 101 trails. I will either emerge from it having bagged a full-length play or I will just never emerge from it -- I’m not sure it’s legal to hunt plays in National Parks, actually.

CCftA: “I am a closet __________” GH: I am a closet hater of reading plays. I can’t get through a play on a page to save my life. I’m also terrible at pretending to be well-read and so when somebody asks me something like: Who are the influences in your writing? I always say “Chaucer -- but only his musicals,” and that usually ends the conversation with everyone’s dignity intact.

CCftA: So – your play-writing career in a nutshell?

GH: My Playwriting Career has paralleled my Lion Taming Career – which is to say it isn’t so much a career as a long-burning impractical desire to be really good at something that is totally irrelevant to most real-life situations.

CCftA: Advice for a new playwright?

GH: Write ten-minute plays because they’re cheaper to mail. Write a lot of them.

When you finally have one that cannot be contained in ten minutes then you’re getting somewhere. Secretly, my advice is to go into Septic Replacement because if you’re going to be up to your knees ruminating about the offal of society you might as well be paid handsomely for it.

CCfta: What’s your writing process?

GH: In my short plays the arc and transformation is usually clear to me from the beginning. In a longer play, like Center of Gravity, I’m building on a lot of ideas and it’s development has been a leap of faith to construct something without knowing for sure what it ends up looking like.

CCftA: What is the genesis of Center of Gravity? How did it start?

GH: CoG began as an argument I sketched out between Wilbur and Orville. I lived for a long time in Dayton, Ohio, and I was pretty saturated with the whole Wright Brothers Birthplace of Aviation thing and, like everyone else there, I was never sure which brother was which. I’m still not sure, but I was interested in that tofu-nature of these gentlemen -- mildly boring meticulous inventors who easily absorbed whatever flavor I dipped them in. The short scenes I started with created enough of a selfcontained universe that a rather sprawling story was able to grow out of it -- not the traditional, historical story, but a story nonetheless.

Music/Special Event Spotlight

by Susan Andersen Although she considers herself a songwriter first and foremost, Kami Lyle became enamored with the trumpet at an early age. “The first live music I remember hearing as a child was polka.

My parents danced competitively and our family attended many polka concerts. When I heard the sound of the trumpet, I knew that was the instrument I wanted to play,” Kami told me over a cup of coffee one afternoon.

We met to discuss her Sit-A-While series, her third album, and what she loves about living on the Cape.

Born in Minnesota and educated in Boston, Kami honed her songwriting skills in Nashville where she found a very supportive writing community.

Kami is very passionate about songwriting and the Sit-A-Whiles provide a great venue to showcase local and national songwriters. It’s hard to not get caught up in her enthusiasm for

the Sit-A-Whiles. A warm, sunny person, she strives to make her guests feel welcome to her “living room” stage.

With the Sit-A-While concept, Kami wanted to create an intimate feeling similar to experiences she had when playing in places like the Blue Bird Café, a renowned listening room and songwriter performance showcase located outside of downtown Nashville.

There is no predetermined set- list for each program; instead, each performer decides what to play based on what the previous performer played. According to Kami, “there is no doubt an element of scariness, but musicians who’ve lived in Nashville are very familiar and comfortable with this format.”

Besides listening to the outstanding guest musicians, you can expect to hear commercials Kami and her team write for their sponsors, lots of banter and joking with the audience, and

22

What else has Kami been up to...?

Kami is part of Steve Forbert’s 35th anniversary tour band, backing him up on keyboards, trumpet and vocals and her trio opens up for him. The audience goes crazy every time she plays a trumpet solo! Recent sold out venues are “The City Winery” in NYC, “World Café Live at The Queen”, Wilmington, Delaware, “Sellersville Theatre” Sellersville, PA, just to name a few. a performance by “neighbors,” local musicians whom Kami invites onto the living room stage.

Living on Cape Cod has had an impact on her music both in subject matter and the “rawness, earthiness” of her songs. The ocean is a constant in her music now and is a metaphor for many things in her life. Her third album Pictures by the Sea contains songs inspired by the life she and her husband Joey Spampinato share on Cape Cod. “I loved living in Nashville and being part of the song writing community, but the business aspect can be overwhelming. I’m inspired by so many musicians living and playing here on Cape Cod.” Touring is still in her blood and on her calendar, but she enjoys the time she

has on the Cape writing songs. “I like to work alone but have done many compilations with other songwriters.

My husband Joey and I finally wrote a song together called “Japan” for the Spampinato Brothers Pie in the Sky album. I tend to be a control freak but it was so wonderful for us to finally write something together.”

As we finished our coffee, I asked Kami about her future plans. She is looking forward to producing more Sit-A-Whiles as well as finishing up her third album.

Teaching songwriting could be in the future as well. One thing I know for sure is that if you go to the Chatham fishing pier before 3:00pm, you may find Kami writing her next song.

Be there to join us for the Kami Lyle Sit-A-Whiles January 18, May 2, November 8

Five things you may not know about Kami Lyle: 1. She’s a vegetarian and loves soup 2. Her songwriting influences were Tom Waits, Carole King, and Joni Mitchell – and of course – her husband Joey!

3. New best place to write – Chatham Fish Pier 4. Recent day job – artist’s model 5. Played trumpet on a sound track for a video game about cats

Education Spotlight We all love a good story, don’t we…?

Even better, of course, is a good story well told, as it can transport us, change our minds and hearts, change our world, make us laugh or cry, or both. Around Cape Cod (or just about anywhere, for that matter), no one tells a better story than Christine Rathbun Ernst, a local poet, playwright and actress who makes her creative home at CCftA. Her series of essays and one-women performances as the “Fat Ass Cancer Bitch” are renowned for their sharp wit and clever humor.

significantly, there is no judgment. There also is no worry about punctuation or correct syntax or good penmanship -- in short, no critique. The only rule is that the pen (or keyboard, many bring their laptops and iPads) may not stop moving once the clock starts. As Christine says, “the class is really about giving yourself permission, structure, and a routine to write – sort of like joining a gym.”

For many it’s true that writing can convey a keen sense of empowerment, even when writing means keeping only a personal diary. It’s still possible to feel the great power and joy that comes from free self expression. For her class, Christine hopes that people will create a notebook full of their own words giving birth to their unique and important voice.

For the last couple of years, Christine has shared her gift and love for writing beyond performance by introducing and leading writing classes at CCftA. She has great passion for writing as an important vehicle for expression -- professionally, creatively, and personally. She wants everyone to discover that recording their thoughts and ideas is so simple. It does not require much preparation or thought (what is the important story I will write?), nor does it need to result in a perfect product (what if it’s not a masterpiece?).

Christine believes that writing is not so much a grand pursuit as it is a practice of paying attention – to yourself and the world around you. And, it’s a darned good habit.

Christine believes that many people use the class as a kind of compost for their own writing practice, finding a seed or gem, or turn of phrase to use any way they’d like, maybe in a short story or novel, or even the just next Facebook post. And, she believes that because she’s done it herself -- twelve years ago she “wrote my way through cancer,” needing to put it all down on paper, she said, “to help me understand what was happening to me, and also to find the humor in it.”

The writing class is structured around a central theme – writing about a color, a room in your house, a memory, for instance. Participants write in timed sessions in response to a prompt within the theme. The theme and prompts are totally arbitrary, with people ultimately writing what they need to write about. It starts quickly with one and two-minute responses, working up to 10 and 15 minute responses. Class participants often read aloud after the prompts, supporting the philosophy that being a good listener is essential to being a good writer. And,

Many who write daily do so for the exact same reasons. It could be writing as anger management, as therapy, as exploring, or to explain and understand the sad and wonderful vagaries of life. Christine shared a wonderful thought with me from the Irish memoirist Nuala O’Faolain, who wrote, “My life burned inside me.

Even such as it was, it was the only record of me, and it was my only creation, and something in me would not accept that it was insignificant.” Sounds like a great reason to check out these classes, doesn’t it?

Letter from

t n e id s e r P d r a o B e h T Hello, Patron of the Arts. The Arts are Essential!

When I sit down to write my Letter from the Prez (with a mechanical pencil on green cross-hatched paper) I generally choose from three categories – your experience here at the center (ART), the organization and how it’s doing (GROWTH), and our need to pay our bills (REVENUE). Today I want to address all three because interestingly enough they are our core strategic focus. Because the Arts are Essential (and because your experience of the Arts her at the center is hugely important to us), we need to manage our growth and generate enough revenue to do our thing which is to be a welcoming hub for Cape Cod’s artists, performers, students, and audiences, working together to make the creation and experience of art accessible, nurturing, and thrilling to all.

Okay. So. I wandered through our non-profit mission la la land there for a moment. Did you notice our mission buried in there? I think you should have.

We talk about it a lot. We are a very mission-driven organization – to provide a really varied and evolving kaleidoscope of artistic experiences and opportunities.

We aim to educate, entertain, illuminate, and inspire, and we are going to hit you with that from every direction. And we are going to engage and enlist you in that effort. Don’t Blink! Before you know it, “you” will become “we.”

And then you will be even more part of our growth. You will come to more events, performances, and classes. You will join a production team, a cast, a crew. You will

42

volunteer at an event, join a committee, paint one of ninety-six two-foot panel sections of a group painting installation, join the board, or perhaps even clean the basement (thanks to all that helped last fall!). Oops, you blinked. It’s already happening – which is good! To us, as an organization, it’s all about GROWTH. It’s about allowing more people to experience more ART in a greater variety and in a more meaningful and educational way. But, like ART, GROWTH requires work and dedication. We are working real hard to improve our organization and our collective experience of the arts. (Please note the emphasis on the “our” there.

You have truly become one of us now.)

Why do we want to grow? Because the Arts are Essential and it’s exciting to grow and we need to grow to fulfill our mission and because there’s such a momentous enthusiasm within the community for what we are doing, that we are just… um…organically…ah… growing. Now, in order to sustain that growth we need to change how we go about our business. We need to work smarter and be more organized, be more able to integrate and include more people so that more people can have a great experience in all that they do at the Center. GROWTH takes a lot of effort and hopefully it’s a fun and rewarding effort for all involved, because we want to be a welcoming hub…etc, etc, etc -- which brings us back to our mission as a non-profit.

As a non-profit, we are not a free community service that doesn’t run on money (though we do depend greatly on our wonderful volunteer participants). As a non-profit corporation, we don‘t have owners that benefit financially from the ownership of the corporation. Rather, the community “owns” us and benefits from our programs. And that community also provides the operating REVENUE to support our programs through earned and donated REVENUE. Now, I’ve wandered into a la la land that is not enjoyable, but the truth is that the community that I mentioned above is our community. It’s you and me. And the Center needs your support to operate. We need your memberships and annual appeal donations. We need you to buy tickets, concessions, swag, and art, and to pay fees for classes (LOTS of classes). We are extremely frugal with money. We operate a large and growing endeavor with a very small staff and a large army of volunteers. But it all takes money to work.

So I conclude where I started on my green cross-hatched papers scribbling in pencil. The Arts are Essential. We are going to make this mission happen.

Together. Think ART, GROWTH, and REVENUE. Thanks for being part of it.

Gallery Spotlight

April gallery exhibits featuring Nathalie Miebach, Sturgis Charter School, and the Town of Barnstable explore our changing climate through art.

The art exhibitions in our galleries during the month of April have been designed to engage the community in a conversation about climate change. The Center will feature the provocative and unusual work of Nathalie Miebach, juxtaposed with a visual interpretation of the environmental, social, and political impacts of climate change, presented by theater and art students from Sturgis Public Charter School’s East and West Campuses.

In partnership with Cotuit Center for the Arts, Barnstable’s Growth Management Department facilitates this artistic response to climate change.

Above: An image from the Town of Barnstable illustrates 2013 flood and hurricane surge zones.

When played out in nature, hypothetical models of extreme weather patterns become freakish.

In October 1991, an event meteorologists still refer to as “The Perfect Storm” entered the Gulf of Maine. A low-pressure system hovering over Nova Scotia, an energy system coming from the Great Lakes, and a dying hurricane near Bermuda coalesced to create an enormous storm called the “Halloween Storm,” which eventually achieved hurricane strength. One of Nathalie Miebach’s works in this exhibit is a 3D musical score that follows the tragic sinking of the fishing vessel, the “Andrea Gail,” during the 1991 Halloween Storm, now known as the “Perfect Storm.”

Partners in Art an arts education makes a difference

by Jennifer Cummings On a warm summer day, 12 teenage boys and a handful of adults work together making ladders, totems, chairs, and benches from wood they find on the grounds of Nickerson State Park. There is sawdust flying, power tools buzzing, and laughter in the air.

It’s all part of the first session of the Art Partnerships Project, a program that brings all kinds of art classes to incarcerated youth at the Brewster Treatment Facility, a residential program that is part of the Department of Youth Services (DYS). This day the teens are building rustic furniture with sculptor Alfie Glover.

The Arts Partnerships Program introduces the young men to six ways of creative expression over the course of one year.

In addition to building rustic furniture, the teens will also participate in world drumming with Sam Holmstock, mural painting with Richard Neal, playing the ukulele with Stephen Gregory, cartoon drawing and storytelling with David Kooharian, and photography and graphic design with Andrew Newman.

The program was developed by Lenore Lyons, Director of Arts Education at the Center. “I believe that the arts can save kids. The youth in this program are non-traditional learners, they can benefit from alternative ways to be creative and express themselves. This is such a wonderful program, it’s good for the youth in DYS care, it’s good for the

58

artists to share their talents, and it’s an important part of our mission: to make the arts accessible to all. The boys have said how much they want to turn their lives around -- the arts can help them do it,” says Lenore.

The Center is able to deliver these classes through a grant from the Commonwealth Corporation, which funds programs that build skills for a strong economy. They realize that at-risk youth gain valuable experience from participating in arts education -- it provides an enriching creative outlet as well as skills that are transferable to the classroom and the workplace, such as applied mathematics and power tool expertise.

“This is the most exciting thing that has ever happened here,” said a clinician from the program. “All of the boys are engaged and really learning something. I love working on the projects with the kids.

It’s a great way for us staff to bond with them on a deep level. We have a new experience together, and this builds the boys’ and staff ’s relationships.”

The Art Partnerships Project is a component of Cotuit Center for the Arts’ Community Outreach Program, which brings the benefits of arts education to the under served members of our community.

Kentucky Derby Gala Saturday, May 3, 2014 4:00pm-8:00pm

by David Kuehn

For those of you who participate at the Center on a regular basis, you know how busy our calendar is. When we publish our events at the beginning of the year, there are almost no dates left for interesting programming ideas that come up – and great ideas from our members and patrons come up all the time, but we generally can’t accommodate them. However, once in a while the stars align. When I met with new Center Circle members Sharon and Ron Nunes, Sharon floated the idea of a Kentucky Derby gala at the Center. We discussed a myriad of ways to create a new “Cotuit-style” wow-factor event and as lady luck would have it, we had not yet programmed anything for Derby Day. So with Sharon taking the lead, a committee of Derby enthusiasts was formed to organize what we’re sure will be one of the signature events of our season. Trust me, you won’t want to miss this one. We don’t want to give away all the surprises of this great event, but you can certainly look forward to enjoying a Mint Julep while adjusting your hat before placing your bid before the big race. Before the race, you ask? You might want to try your luck with a win, place, or show bet on the Human Segway Balcony Race while enjoying some barbecue at the VIP Millionaires Row Party. I asked our committee members (Sharon Nunes, Jenn Cummings, Michelle Law, Sharon Parkins) to share some thoughts about the event: DK: How did the idea of a Kentucky Derby come up?

SN: Ron and I had just come back from NY visiting a friend who had the Derby on TV. We were at a Cotuit event and saw you and as we were talking about fun things to do at Cotuit, we said “wouldn’t Cotuit be a great place to have a Derby event, where we can watch the race on the big screen inside the theater?”

JC: The Nunes came up with the idea, and I’m so glad they

did! I watch the Derby every year with friends and we always bet on our favorite horses. The room gets so loud, we are all yelling at the TV for our horse to win!

DK: What do you think will be the most fun aspect of the event?

SN: Watching every one come dressed up (we hope!) and getting into the spirit of the day the way they do in Kentucky! And of course, enjoying the food and drinks!

JC: Seeing everyone’s stylish hats and the Human Segway Races!

ML: Cheering with other attendees while we watch the race on the big screen.

SP: I see the “Run for the Roses” Kentucky Derby Gala as a family get-together that will feature fun aspects for everyone.

DK: What can people expect when they come to the event?

SN: I hope they think they have come to Churchill Downs for the day. There will be a “buzz” at this event, for sure!

ML: I hope they will feel a connection with those at Churchill Downs : juleps, photo op area, roses, hats, binoculars, maybe some mud.

SP: We’ll be singing “My Old Kentucky Home,” we’ll have pony rides for kids, prizes for the most dazzling Derby Hat, and so much more.

DK: What makes the Center the perfect place for an event like this?

SN: Everything we have come to at Cotuit Center for the Arts has been fun. The people who are involved love what they do, the staff is great, and you always “throw a great party!”

JC: The screen! When’s the last time you watched the race on a 26-foot screen? (and our members too - we are a fun bunch.)

DK: Will you be wearing a hat?

SN: I have been checking out hats on-line since June!!

61

I have way too many that I’d love to wear. Maybe I need to “stock up” for future years!

JC: Abso-freaking-lutely.

Although I can’t decide between a fascinator or a church hat...

ML: Of COURSE!!!

DK: What type of food do you hope we serve?

SN: As long as we have Mint Juleps, I’ll eat anything! I think finger-foods would fit the day’s events, since I don’t expect people to be sitting in one place very long!

ML: Juleps (in proper julep glasses), chicken drummies, cucumber sandwiches, generally fancy fixins! Oh, and Derby Pie, of course.

SP: Hot Browns, delicious Mint Juleps, chocolate pecan pie, and roses for everyone!

Seeing the Light Each winter, the Arts Foundation of Cape Cod presents an exhibit designed to present the very best established and emerging artists in the region, who create their work around a theme. This year is Seeing The Light. For some artists, it may mean how they use light in their art, while for others it may be a particular moment or epiphany of inspiration. The exhibit is a free, open-to-the-public art educational program which particularly connects 70+ of the region’s finest artists with school children of all ages from throughout the Cape. The exhibit itself is hung one foot lower than a typical exhibit to insure maximum accessibility for the students. The program typically is viewed by 5,000 people, including 2,000 students over five weeks here at Cotuit Center

for the Arts and consists of an opening reception, daily exhibition, and two class trips per day of 30-50 students, Monday through Friday.

Each class receives a guided tour by a qualified docent, an interactive artist-led art project, a “scavenger” exercise to encourage more study of the works, and a talk from an artist from the exhibit on their thoughts behind their art and the creative process.

The exhibit will be on view from January 11 - February 23.

exceptional People exceptional art by Dale Silva

Amidst all the major public theater, music, and gallery events taking place at Cotuit Center for the Arts, another exceptional program has been quietly serving the community for the last 10 years.

Every Tuesday morning, from September through May, staff member Michelle Law provides art instruction to a group of individuals with developmental disabilities in conjunction with the May Institute Center for Adult Services in nearby Mashpee. The classes include approximately 10 students, ranging in age from 20 to over 60 years old.

Many of these students have been attending the class for several years, returning each September with renewed anticipation for the next year’s program.

While the folks at the May Institute normally determine which of the day programs are viable options for each individual, the students themselves choose which of those programs they wish to attend. Coming to Cotuit to learn is the personal choice of each student. As Michelle has stated, “The Cotuit Center has always welcomed people of all artistic abilities who want to create art.”

Above: Instructor L. Michelle Law

In this class, each student works at their own pace rather than on specific group projects. Over time, Michelle will determine their specific likes and dislikes, ultimately leading them into work that they love to do.

In this way, the students look forward to each class with enthusiasm.

As a student progresses in capability, the value of this type of program becomes obvious. One example involved a student who initially would simply sit and paint on just one spot on a piece of paper, requiring the teacher to move the paper around under the student’s brush. Gradually, the student expanded capability, not only to paint on a full sheet, but also to go to the supplies area, choose the

“Cotuit Center for the Arts has become a very special place for the individuals in our care,” said Shannin Seamans, Assistant Director at May Institute’s Day Habilitation program in Mashpee. “Here, not only do they have an opportunity to create, but also to have their artwork displayed among other artists in the community, and for all to see. This gives them an incredible sense of pride and belonging.”

required materials, and complete a finished product. The result produced a valuable enhancement of this individual’s social and interactive skills.

Another recognition of this program’s success is the annual display of students’ work at the Annual Members, Students and Faculty Show held in the Gallery each November. The works of art that are produced by these individuals are quite amazing and worthy of exhibition.

As well as serving in several additional roles, Michelle Law has been leading this program at the Center for many years.

With a degree in Art from Southern Illinois University, she brings great knowledge and skill to everything she does. Since arriving at CCftA, she has taught children’s classes, supervised summer camp, designed sets for the mainstage, and regularly hangs all of the exhibits in the Gallery. However, the May Institute program is a labor of love, for, when the students come into class with that special gleam in their eyes and expression of “boundless joy,” she knows it is all worthwhile.

“The Cotuit Center has always welcomed people of all artistic abilities who want to create art.”

Volunteer Spotlight Peter and Bette West Do It at Cotuit...

Together

72

Bette and Peter West have theater blood in their veins.

They were active with the Wellesley Players for 30 years -- Peter onstage and Bette performing many tasks backstage. They transferred this love of theater to CCftA in 2005 when Peter made his debut in Oscar Wilde’s “An Ideal Husband” and Bette volunteered as an usher.

Since then, their involvement with the Center has been continuous and significant.

Peter has appeared in many productions (he particularly enjoyed playing Colonel Thomas McKean in “1776” since he is British and the role required a Scottish accent). Bette, meanwhile, continued to usher, help with mailings, and lend a deft hand with costumes, even though she hadn’t touched a sewing machine in 30 years!

Together they have run our Wine & Music Wednesdays since the popular monthly event launched, which they particularly enjoy because they get to do it together.

They are enthusiastic about volunteering at the Center because they find it a warm and welcoming organization with great people on staff and in the volunteer corps – and because they know that their contributions are greatly appreciated!

Board Member Spotlight Spencer Hallett It was nine years ago when Spencer Hallett had his first encounter with Cotuit Center for the Arts. The production was The Elephant Man and a set was needed. Spencer, being a 12th generation Cape Cod native, is one of those enterprising local chaps who knows something about everything. Construction and creativity are no exception, and thus the set quickly became a reality with his help.

“This is an amazing place,” says Spencer. “As soon as you step through the door or look at the website, it’s clear that diversity is the calling card here. That appealed to me immediately.

Better yet, once you come a few times, you meet lots of fascinating people and make many new friends.”

Spencer now serves on the Board of Directors and chairs the important Facilities Committee. In the spirit of “it takes a village,” he’s also recruited many friends and tradespeople who now share his enthusiam in helping with everything from set construction to building repairs, electrical work, painting, and other essential work. “Without Spencer and devoted volunteers like him, we simply could not exist,” says Executive Director David Kuehn.

Spencer is the owner of Spencer Hallett Plumbing & Heating in Marstons Mills. Spencer’s wife, Melissa, is a dancer and choreographer, and her credits at Cotuit Center include Cabaret, Anything Goes, Spamalot, and A Grand Night for Singing. The newlyweds actually met through their connection with the Center!

Member Spotlight “Happy 100th Birthday, Bill!”

On the occasion of Bill Sandler’s 100th birthday, he became the Center’s first “Lifetime Member,” and we, in collaboration with the Boys and Girls Club of Cape Cod, threw a Cotuit-style party to honor Bill for his lifetime of dedication to enriching the cultural lives of children.

Bill and Lillian Sandler split their time between Popponesset Island and Palm Beach, Florida. They have enjoyed theater and concert programs at the Center for years, but only recently became aware of how much community outreach and arts education the Center provides for the underserved youth of the area. So last year, at Bill’s suggestion, he became the first Lifetime Member of the Center. As he was also about to celebrate his 100th birthday, we invited friends, neighbors, and fellow philanthropists to support two local causes near and dear to his heart. The money raised for the Center’s outreach programs and for the Boys and Girls Club help both organizations bring vibrant programs to our youth who wouldn’t otherwise have access.

“We had several meetings to plan the party, and each time I saw the bright red sporty car pull into the parking lot and knew that Bill was on his way in, all I could think was ‘I can’t imagine I’ll be driving myself to meetings to plan my 100th birthday party’ – this guy is such an inspiration!” said David Kuehn, Executive Director of the Center.

And an inspiration he is. Bill has asked that the Center challenge all its patrons and members to support the work we do on behalf of underserved youth to the greatest degree that they can. Yes, his is a rags to riches story -- Bill grew up in a tough Boston neighborhood and then made it big in the auto accessories business. He says one of his greatest joys is sharing his good fortune. Thank you Bill and Lillian. We appreciate your support and look forward to seeing you here in the summer.

To find out more about becoming a Lifetime Member, contact Jenn Cummings at the Center.
