Effort to create ‘sunset’ provision fails as council approves permanent ban

Theodore Oyler has gone to extremes to keep his five Denver properties in historic condition, from hardwood floors to clawfoot tubs.

This month, however, he discovered that neither he nor his lawyer could stop the rapid spread of a new technology through Denver’s oldest neighborhoods.

On Oct. 12, Oyler noticed a crew drilling horizontally near the sidewalk outside his Dalton Apartments building in Cheesman Park.

“It was just a fluke that we even saw it,” he explained. When he talked to a worker, he learned that they were building a miniature cell tower — 30 feet tall and skinny enough to fit between the sidewalk and the street.

They were installing one of hundreds of “cell poles” or “small cell” sites expected to be installed in central Denver this year by up to ten different companies.

“This is going to affect every neighborhood,” Denver City Councilman Wayne New told Denverite. “This is

Earlier this year, a new state law said that companies generally should be allowed to plant these new cell poles in the public right of way.

Verizon alone has installed more than 150 this year, according to city records, “and they have the right to do

it without any objections,” New said.

The new sites are much smaller than a full tower — about the size of a streetlight — and they cover just a couple blocks each. They’re expected to unclog data connections and could be a key element in the next-generation 5G data networks.

Starting on Dec. 1, police officers will ask people on the 16th Street Mall to extinguish their nicotine delivery devices, from cigarettes to vaporizers.

The Denver City Council on Oct. 30 unanimously approved the Breathe Easy Ordinance, which will allow cops to issue tickets up to $100 to anyone smoking or using an e-cigarette on the pedestrian mall or within 50 feet of its edges.

The proposal was introduced by Council President Albus Brooks, who said his main concern was the health and welfare of the people of Denver.

Teaching students how to cope socially, emotionally Such skills are needed to succeed in rapidly changing world, area educators say

tricts that teach social and emotional learning — or SEL — skills. Sometimes known as behavioral or noncognitive skills, educators and mental health experts, along with a growing number of research studies, say they are essential to successfully navigating not only education, but also career and life.

Eighth-grader Morgan Fritzler is working to improve her self-awareness.

“Sometimes, I have anxiety and perfectionist issues and I expect myself to get everything on the first try,” Fritzler, 12, said. “It makes me feel frustrated.”

But through a program at her school that focuses on social and emotional learning, she is learning how to calm herself down when she gets upset, how to be persistent and not give up, and a variety of other coping mechanisms that teach resilience and, ultimately, success in everyday decision-making.

“It was helpful,” she said of the Brain Wise program taught at Arvada’s Manning Middle School in Jefferson County. Now, when she’s struggling, she takes a break rather than continue in frustration, specifically when it comes to math homework.

Brain Wise is one of a multitude of programs beginning to proliferate throughout Denver metro school dis-

The keys to success The national Collaborative for Academic, Social and Emotional Learning describes SEL as the process through which children and adults acquire and effectively apply the knowledge, attitudes and skills necessary to understand and manage emotions, set and achieve positive goals, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain positive relationships, and make responsible decisions.

“We want all students to be equipped with the tools and skills to navigate and thrive in our rapidly changing world,” said Priscilla Straughn, chief academic officer for Adams 12 Five Star District. “Through social emotional learning, students develop an awareness of and the ability to manage their emotions, in order to set and achieve important personal and academic goals.”

Some of these, Straughn said, include the use of social awareness and interpersonal skills to establish and maintain positive relationships, and the ability to form, articulate and demonstrate a positive and productive

decision-making process that supports students in achieving school and life success.

According to a 2011 meta-analysis published by the Collaborative for Academic, Social and Emotional Learning, those who participated in evidence-based SEL programs showed an 11 percentile-point gain in academic achievement compared to students who did not participate in SEL programs. They also showed improved classroom behavior, an increased ability to manage stress and depression, and better attitudes about themselves, others and school.

Social emotional learning focuses on five core competencies: self management, self awareness, social awareness, responsible decision-making and relationship skills.

“Those are the things that we’re trying to teach kids so they’re successful at school, home and beyond,” said Erin Sullivan, social emotional learning coordinator for Jefferson County Schools. “I always think of them as the skills you need to have to access education better.”

They are also the skills that employers want.

“A lot of cognitive things become automated, so you need the people skills,” said Rich Roberts, chief scientist at ACT, a nationwide mission-driven nonprofit organization that assesses K-12 education, which researched SEL. “SELs are becoming more valued in the workplace and

therefore it’s something we should care about in the school system.”

Recently, ACT announced the launch of the ACT Tessera, a next-generation assessment system designed to measure SEL skills. The new system will provide assessments for middle and high school students (grades 6-12), as well as actionable lesson plans for teachers looking to integrate SEL into their classrooms.

“In education, we’ve been concentrating for a long time on cognitive assessment, but with the changing nature of the workforce, things like working well with others, being a good team player and being able to cope with stress — these are good things to learn,” Roberts said. “We live in a world of modern stresses so, to me, it’s not rocket science, it just makes sense.”

What districts are doing Denver metro area school districts are taking different approaches.

In Adams 12, each school determines which programs to offer based on what would be most effective in that specific school.

Some of those programs include Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports, Second Step, Journey to a Hate Free Millennium, Signs of Suicide, Random Acts of Kindness, Peace4Kids, Superflex and Zones of SEE STUDENTS, P3

Key findings included: • Behavioral skills are rated important in preparing students for college and workplace success by more than 80 percent of K-12 teachers, postsecondary instructors and workforce supervisors.

• Behavioral skills are interpersonal, selfregulatory and task-related behaviors such as acting honestly, getting along with others, keeping an open mind, maintaining composure, socializing with others and sustaining efforts.

• Navigation factors are viewed as important by nine in 10 K-12 teachers and by about two-thirds of postsecondary instructors and workforce supervisors. (Navigation factors are defined as personal characteristics, processes and knowledge that influence people as they journey along their education and career paths, including self-knowledge, environmental factors, integration and managing career and education actions.)

to schools in the district.

For the 2016-17 school year, Jeffco hired 30 SEL specialists who serve at every middle school in the district teaching curriculum. Those specialists were funded from the district’s general fund, something Sullivan, who coordinates SEL in Jeffco, said was well worth the $750,000 expense.

A 2015 study by researchers at Columbia University found that the measurable benefits of SEL exceed the costs, often by considerable amounts.

The aggregate result of the analysis showed an average benefit-cost ratio of about 11-1 among the six evidencebased SEL interventions studied. This means that, on average, for every $1 invested in SEL programming, there is a return of $11.

This year, Jeffco was awarded a grant from the state’s School Health Professionals Grant Program, which uses recreational marijuana tax dollars to help hire additional school health professionals in districts across the state.

With that money, Jeffco will hire six more SEL specialists who will be assigned to elementary schools in the Jefferson and Wheat Ridge articulation areas. The grant also includes hiring three full-time nurses in the Lakewood area. (These are the three communities in the Jeffco district that sell recreational marijuana.)

The goal, Sullivan said, is to focus on prevention, building relationships with kids and practicing SEL skills early and often.

Regulation, to name a few. Although they may differ in content, they all share a goal of creating better people.

“We’ve found this approach positively impacts a students’ readiness to learn, classroom behavior and overall academic performance,” Straughn said. In Douglas County, teachers try to reach students in all classrooms, not with a specific curriculum, but by creating a welcoming culture at each school.

“The key to it all is having connectedness to adults,” said Stephanie Crawford-Goetz, mental health coordinator for the Douglas County School District.

The district holds professional developments for teachers on how to create safe and healthy classrooms.

Crawford-Goetz said this can look like counselors going into classrooms and partnering with parents or teachers modeling for students how to have good relationship skills and make good decisions.

“It’s not something that we do, it’s something that we are,” CrawfordGoetz said. “We want to empower our students to be as successful as can be, so it’s looking at the students as more than just academic achievement. It’s looking at the whole child.”

Douglas County also works more closely with identified at-risk students who are showing difficulty using SEL skills. Crawford-Goetz said those students will often work on specific skills in groups. Some receive individualized counseling.

Englewood Schools is also working to train its staff to understand signs of emotional distress through Mental Health First Aid, a national program that teaches skills to respond to signs of mental illness and substance use.

Englewood is also taking advantage of a variety of grants to increase its mental health, social and emotional supports.

One of those grants came from the Expelled and At-Risk Student Services program through the Colorado Department of Education. The district will use the four-year grant to implement restorative practices, an approach using various communicative techniques focused on affective statements or brief comments about how others were impacted by actions, and proactive community-building activities to reduce the number of student suspensions.

The district also received a grant through Kaiser Permanente to be part of the Los Angeles Education Partnership, a nonprofit that provides coaches that focus on dealing with trauma.

In addition, Englewood Schools partners with Arapahoe Douglas Mental Health Network for schoolbased therapists to work with students on site.

“We’ve really been working to increase our focus in the last couple years,” said Callan Clark, executive director of student services for the Englewood school district.

Jeffco schools also partners with local mental health provider Jefferson County Mental Health to provide social emotional learning specialists

A recently released research report from ACT, a mission-driven nonprofit organization that assesses and creates solutions for K-12 education, college and career readiness, confirmed the importance of social and emotional learning skills. The 2017 Importance of Behavioral Skills and Navigation Factors for Education and Work reported that both education and workforce professionals believe these skills are critical for lifelong success.

Hickenlooper budget would boost school funding Governor’s plan calls for increasing spending by about $343 per student

BY YESENIA ROBLES CHALKBEAT.ORG

Colorado would give school districts more money next year and the state would make a dent in its school funding shortfall under Gov. John Hickenlooper’s proposed 2018-19 budget released Nov. 1.

If the plan is approved by state lawmakers, school districts would see an increase of about $343 per student, or an increase of about 4.5 percent.

The funding proposal would reduce the gap between how much the state

gives schools and what it should fund its schools according to an existing formula.

That funding shortfall, commonly called the negative factor, would decrease by $70 million.

The $28.7 billion budget proposal also seeks to increase the state’s savings, make a large investment in higher education to “moderate” college tuition increases and address issues with the state’s troubled pension system.

Another significant education piece of the budget proposal: an $11 million request to provide charter schools authorized by the state’s Charter School Institute with extra dollars to compare with what districts will be required to share with their own charter schools.

“The demand for wireless is growing so much on its own, it’s almost everything that wireless companies can do just to keep up with it,” said John Rowe, a local expert on cell technology who just published the book “Firmly Anchored in Midair: The Handbook of Wireless Site Acquisition and Permitting.”

Small cell sites have been around for close to 20 years, he said, but they’ve become much more popular as providers have tried to serve more and more data to dense, urban areas where they can’t build big towers. Cell poles usually are connected to fiber networks.

If current trends continue, the United States could have 10 times more cell transmission sites within five years, he estimated. Installations of small cell sites already have increased from 69,000 in 2015 to an estimated 270,000 this year in North America, according to the Small Cell Forum industry group.

In Denver, three different companies have 13 different proposals in progress as of today.

Property owners like Oyler say they aren’t being notified before construction, and they describe the new poles as an eyesore.

“Here’s your front lawn, here’s your sidewalk, and now you’re looking at a 30-foot pole,” he said. “If you have a second-floor window, you’re looking right out

into the head of this transmitter.”

Once he found out, the landlord tried to raise the issue with Verizon, but he got no response. The next day, Oct. 13, he filed a lawsuit, but a judge threw it out last week.

The deeper worry is that companies won’t work together to minimize the number of new poles.

With multiple networks competing for market share, New worries that they’ll saturate the streets.

“I’m not talking about just Verizon. There’s maybe 10 of them. You put 10 poles in a block in front of people’s houses — it’s just a forest of unnecessary poles,” New said.

The 10 companies working in Denver include telecoms like Verizon as well as companies that build towers for other companies to use.

New wants to see the cell companies mount their antennas on existing poles rather than building hundreds of new ones.

The challenge is that Denver does not own most of its utility poles, light poles or even its traffic signal poles — Xcel and other utilities do.

Denver officials already have convinced Xcel to offer up some of its poles for “co-location,” but the cell companies aren’t exactly rushing to use them, New said.

“With Verizon, we met with them and a couple of the representatives were just totally uncooperative,” he said. “It was unbelievable. It was like they didn’t care whether there were multiple poles or not.”

In an emailed statement, Verizon spokesperson Meagan Dorsch said the company is committed

A law passed earlier this year requires school districts to share a portion of local tax measures with charter schools in their districts, but those authorized by the state were not included in the plans. Now charter school advocates are looking to bring up their funding too.

“We’re starting an equalization process with an $11 million increase in this budget,” Henry Sobanet, the state’s budget director, said during a briefing with reporters.

The governor is also planning to set aside $10 million from the Marijuana Tax Cash Fund for work to reverse teacher shortages.

A report requested by lawmakers will be released in December and is expected to include a plan for strategies that will help attract and retain

them off the mall. Brooks said that was not his intention, noting that it will not be possible to get arrested for violating the ban, as it is a civil rather than criminal offense.

However, failure to pay the tickets still could lead people to be hounded by collections agencies, and their credit could suffer, critics said.

Smoking already is illegal within 25 feet of building entries in Denver. The city also forbids traditional smoking (but not vaporizing) near city buildings and hospitals and in sports stadiums. State law since 2006 has banned smoking inside.

Under one approved change, the Denver Police Department will issue regular reports on the use of the ordi-

more teachers.

“We anticipate a significant focus on the challenges rural communities face in attracting, retaining and developing the qualified teachers needed to support positive student outcomes,” the budget proposal states.The proposal was sent to the Joint Budget Committee for their consideration. A final budget is usually approved in the spring.

Last year, the final budget approved by lawmakers was considerably different than what the governor had proposed.

The November budget proposal last year expected an increase in the gap between what schools would get and what they actually receive, but in the end, lawmakers were able to keep the shortfall from growing.

to “following all local processes around small cell deployment” but notes that due to differences in carrier needs and equipment, “co-location is not always an option.”

Xcel, meanwhile, says it already makes space available and is working on agreements to expand that practice with more companies.

“Additionally, it is a top priority for us to ensure there are no impacts on our ability to provide safe and reliable service to our customers. We will be coordinating closely with interested cities and cellular providers regarding implementation once an agreement is finalized,” Xcel spokesperson Michelle Aguayo wrote in an email.

Now, New is considering introducing an ordinance that would require companies to do everything possible to minimize the number of new poles. The new state law does allow cities to regulate on the basis of public health, safety and welfare — which can include aesthetics, Rowe said.

“You can’t say, `Well, I don’t like it, so I don’t want it,’” he said. “But that doesn’t mean you can’t put reasonable stipulations on it.”

Whatever happens, though, will likely be too late for Theodore Oyler and his fight against Denver’s newest cell pole.

“Pretty much we’re out of luck,” he said. “They’re going full speed ahead.”

nance, which could highlight whether it’s being disproportionately used against any one group of people.

Councilman Paul Kashmann said he wanted data tracking to ensure that the law applied equally to “17th Street lawyers, conventioneers in town from LA or New York and those who are on the street because they have no home to which to retreat,” he said, adding that he didn’t want the law to be used to “sanitize the visual impact” of the mall. The council unanimously approved the reporting requirement Kashmann also unsuccessfully proposed that the ordinance would expire in two years unless the council explicitly renews it, also known as a “sunset.”

“Having the sunset … causes us to take a bit more in-depth look,” he said.

Brooks was opposed to the idea of the time limit, though. “To put a sunset on this is to say, ‘What is the

importance of doing this health initiative in the first place?’” Brooks said.

Only Kashmann and councilmembers Rafael Espinoza and Debbie Ortega voted for the sunset.

Espinoza also raised another concern: What if all the smokers just go to Larimer Street?

“People might congregate in those still desirable places to hang out just 50 feet away from the 16th Street Mall,” he said.

But Brooks won’t be pushing for any further anti-smoking rules just yet.

“You have seen the extent of my smoke-free zones,” he said after the meeting. There have been suggestions of bans in parks and other areas, but “that’s a much larger conversation that involves a lot of communities.”

“What is your name?”

“Are you nauseous?”

Minutes earlier the boy, 17, was elbowed in the head during basketball practice. A friend walked him to see Reasoner, Legend’s head athletic trainer. Dr. Kathy Vidlock, volunteer physician for Legend’s football team,

The boy correctly repeats a series of three numbers back to Reasoner, but he can’t do the same when she gives him four digits to recall. She then guides him through a series of physical assessments, not unlike a roadside sobriety test. The boy manages to stand with his eyes closed, touch his nose and maintain his balance.

Reasoner sends him back to class, but not practice. She rates his concussion below a 1 on a scale from 1 to 5, with 5 being the most severe. Nonetheless, she will check in with him almost daily for a couple of weeks.

too easy to become sad, if we allow ourselves to buy into the sadness. The good news is that there is a possible cure for our sadness, we call it happiness. We call it hope for a better and happier tomorrow.

The song “A Groovy Kind of Love,” covered by Phil Collins, said it this way: “When I’m feeling blue, all I have to do, is take a look at you, then I’m not so blue …” What is it you can look at to not feel so blue?

What memory do we have from yesterday that is so powerfully happy it can turn today’s sad day around?

You see, we don’t really get any more yesterdays, but we get plenty of todays and all of the tomorrows we can imagine.

And in each one of our todays, in our current situation or condition, we can all find something to be happy about. And it’s probably just not in our memories, it is probably sitting right in front of us. It’s opportunity, it’s a smile, it’s our favorite current song, it’s a new business, it’s a new acquaintance, it is faith, it is hope, and it is love.

This is all well and good you might say, and you might ask: “But how can I know that I will be happy tomorrow, or next week, or next year, or in five years?”

Great question and I am glad you asked. There is no doubt that tough times, crisis, and sadness or difficult moments will creep into everyone’s life. It happens.

When that does happen, when those times come, we can still find happiness, even in our melancholy moments.

And we would also do well to remember that happiness in our future is a choice.

Happiness is an attitude. To prepare for a happy future, we need to remember our happy places, happy moments, and happy memories of yesterday. We need to build upon our happy moments and experiences of today, storing them away and building up our happy muscles for all of our tomorrows.

Let’s explore practicing happiness in a potentially unhappy world. The person who dreads going to their office because it is stressful and unhappy can find happiness in the fact that they have a job right now.

And remembering that when looking for a new job, no one ever hires unhappy people. The person who is sad visiting the hospital can experience happiness watching as the nurses and therapists helping patients are

actually bringing relief and comfort to the patients in their care. Certainly there are situations that call for a less happy appearance and approach, and we can all relate to those moments and understand the sensitivity that we feel in those situations.

So how about you? Where is your happiness found in your yesterdays?

Where is your happiness found today?

Are you prepared for the future and preserving your attitude of happiness?

Going to great depths for a good time Diving a popular pastime for residents of landlocked Colorado

BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Space, the final frontier.

While that’s a frontier most of us won’t have the chance to explore, twothirds of Earth has the next best thing — open water for scuba diving.

“Just like in space travel, you get that same weightlessness and sense of exploration when you dive into the ocean,” said Derek Prosser, owner of Underwater Phantaseas, which is celebrating 35 years in Lakewood.

“There’s something new to see every time I dive.”

Despite being a landlocked state, Colorado is home to a large number of avid divers. According to the Colorado Ocean Coalition, a nonprofit with the goal of inspiring residents to promote healthy oceans through education and community involvement, Colorado has more certified scuba divers than any other state.

And owners of the many scuba shops in the metro area know why.

“We have the long cold winters that people want to escape in someplace warm,” said Fred Halcomb, owner of Arvada’s Coral Key Scuba and Travel shop. “We have a major hub airport, and are just a five-hour flight from some of the best diving. We have a lot of transplants from warm places. And Colorado is a very fit place, so people who live here are looking for active things to do.”

While there are some places to dive in Colorado during the summer months — like Chatfield Reservoir, Jefferson Lake, and even the Downtown Aquarium — most people who come into area scuba shops are preparing for a trip somewhere warm — think Fiji, Mexico and the Caribbean. Because of this fact, most scuba shops have a travel agent component, and many organize group guided trips with customers and staff.

“The most popular place we see is Cozumel in Mexico,” said Brian Miller, owner of One World Dive and Travel in Greenwood Village. “One of the best things about diving is it’s a great reason to travel to some beautiful places in the world.”

Training and education are key parts of any safe and successful dive trip, and to that end, most dive shops offer classes, pools for practice, and guided dives to get scuba certified. Many facilities have their own pools for training, and work with people who are reluctant to take to the water. Many first-time divers also have fears about pressure on their ears, claustrophobia and panicking once they get underwater.

“Taking people who are afraid is my absolute favorite thing to do,” Halcomb said. “It takes a little bit of time to get past those fight-or-flight responses, especially since you’re not used to being in water in breathing,

Scuba divers from Greenwood Village’s One World Dive and Travel meet some of the ocean’s denizens.

STEPS TO BECOMING A CERTIFIED SCUBA DIVER Being a certified diver means that person is able to fill their own tanks or have their tanks filled by scuba shops, and is a lifelong certification.

Most dive shops have flexible options for students to complete the steps necessary to becoming a certified diver.

Costs will vary, but the average cost to become certified ranges from $400 to $600.

The three steps are: • Independent study — First, divers have to do some studying, either through approved books or online materials, on safe diving, the proper equipment and diving procedures. but we take it as slow as is necessary to get our students comfortable.”

The youngest a person can be certified is 10 years old, and divers can be active well into their 80s.

“The water is the great equalizer, and we do a lot of work with patients at Craig Hospital,” said Scott Taylor with A-1 Scuba & Travel Aquatics Center in Littleton. “There’s a misconception that to dive, you have to be super fit, but that’s just not the case.”

Everyone has a different story behind their love of diving — Prosser first got into it because he saw a poster while he was bored in algebra and Halcomb was in the Navy — but once they found their sea legs, there was no going back.

• Pool dives — Most scuba diving stores have a pool on site, or a partner pool they work with, where new divers learn how to set up their equipment, get a sense of the weight in the water, and other skills.

• Open-water dives — The final step includes four dives in open-water environments, where students take everything they learned in the first two steps and apply them. There are various locations in Colorado these dives can be completed at, as well as options in neighboring states like New Mexico and Utah.

Fred Halcomb, owner of Arvada’s Coral Key Scuba and Travel shop, was first certified when he was 10 years old, and went on to join the Navy.

CLARKE READER ‘No matter where you go, it’s just awesome,” Taylor said. “When you’re diving, you become an ambassador to the underwater world, and when you dive with other people, all your differences disappear.”

19th-century Paris saw brave women artists Impressionism bloomed in time and place dominated by men

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

“You had to go there!” said Suzanne Ramljak of the American Federation of Arts, which organized the show, “Her Paris: Women Artists in the Age of Impressionism,” now open through Jan. 14 at the Denver Art Museum.

Impressionism was centered in Paris and peaked in the 1870s and 1880s.

“Hardly any women were able to go.

This is the first survey of women working in France at the time,” Ramljak said at a press preview on Oct. 19.

Women artists had to have support from a father or husband — or inherited money. And even then, it was difficult to travel and paint alone — one couldn’t enter a cafe to paint for example, unless accompanied by a man. One had to dress carefully and demurely.

And admission to Ecole des Beaux Artes, the place to train, was closed to women, said exhibit curator, Laurence Madeline, who is chief curator for the French National Museums.

“These artists had a passion to overcome obstacles,” she said. (Academie Julien did open to women and taught many of them.)

Madeline has worked nine or ten years on this show, she said — pulling many works from museum storage,

“from storage to light,” as well as from gallery walls. “There is much to still achieve,” she added as she speculated on next steps, “Much to do in order that women can achieve what women are and able to do.”

“You’ve got a baby — spread its wings and fly,” said Angelica Daneo, the local exhibition curator and Denver Art Museum’s curator of painting and sculpture, who installed the exhibit, including more than 80 paintings by 37 professional woman artists from Europe and America.

They migrated to Paris to further their careers, overcoming genderbased limitations. “These were not women who painted as a pastime, not makers of ceramics and decorative arts, fans, etc.,” Daneo added. “They had a compelling story to say.” She quoted an early diarist: “To a woman who knows her own mind, men can be only a minor consideration.”

Longtime museum docent Jacqui Kitzelman, of Littleton, has been among those training to conduct tours of this exhibition. They have heard about it from Angelica Daneo and from an expert interpretive specialist on the museum staff and were scheduled for a walk-through on Oct. 20. “Each of us figures out how to tour visitors from age 5 to 105, kindergarten to early Alzheimer’s …” she says.

It’s really rewarding for a woman who has spent her career in arts management. And “as long as I can walk out of here with a smile on my face, I’ll continue,” she says.

There have been mandatory reading assignments (tricky to find, since the docent’s library was moved) and access

IF YOU GO The Denver Art Museum is now open seven days a week. “Her Paris,” in the Anschutz Gallery through Jan. 14, is a ticketed exhibit. See DenverArtMuseum.org. to the website, labels, pictures and wall text. When we spoke with Kitzelman some time ago, there were 70 docents and their number has increased to almost 200. “We just trained 50 new ones,” she said — needed as museum attendance grows steadily. This exhibit should attract real crowds.

Madeline added a historic note: “Napoleon allowed more freedom for women just before this period — women could earn their own way.”

Included in the exhibit: American Mary Cassatt, French women Berthe Morisot and Rosa Bonheur, Dane Anna Archer and German Paula Modrersohn-Becker.

Many paintings included stories of the artists’ lives and friends: painting together, seated with an instructor in a sunny park, enjoying tea, interiors, modern landscapes, strolling, with children — and there are a number of portraits of woman artists by other woman artists (looking businesslike, versus in the pretty white dress). They asserted their roles in the art world.

Women couldn’t attend the Ecole des Beaux Artes until quite late in the period when Paris was the art mecca and by then, it wasn’t nearly as good, nor so much in demand, Madeline said.

Famous artists such as Monet left.

“We are just with very good artists,” Madeline concluded, again emphasizing the quality of painting. Allow time to look at details when you visit.

The exhibit will next move to the Speed Art Museum in Louisville, Kentucky, and the Clark Art Museum in Williamstown, Massachusetts.

Father-son duo share exhibit at Museum Outdoor Arts Artists interact with each other through their work

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

“Art is making something that didn’t exist before,” artist Charles Parson says in a well-made video that plays continuously in the Sound Gallery at the Museum Outdoor Arts’ indoor gallery at Englewood Civic Center.

The film’s an informative addition to a large collection of works, “Counterpoints,” by Charles and Collin Parson, father and son, which will run through Dec. 15.

The artists, who both speak through geometric images, respond to each other’s work “in concept and format,” according to the MOA. “Each artist creates objects that remind viewers of the extraordinary possibilities intrinsic in common, often industrial materials, building on the structures of geometric forms underlying our world. An artistic bridge between the two generations, presenting an opportunity to harmonize and at times contrast today’s definitions of artistic expression.”

Both love industrial materials.

Charles, who started drawing at age 10, has a vision that is more traditional than that of his son.

Charles speaks on the film of “the pleasure of showing together … the responsiveness to each other’s aesthetic.” Son Colin comments “sculptors need friends …”

In addition to this gallery exhibit, they have eight related monumental sculptures at Westlands Park in Greenwood Village — through Aug. 9, 2018.

Surfaces are mirrored acrylic and steel; polished steel; textured papers with drawings — often variations of a horizon; clear acrylic plastic in varied precise, sometimes textured, geometric forms. Many artworks are enhanced by colored LED lights, steady or pulsing — at times phasing into other colors.

Works hang on gallery walls and rest on pedestals through the gallery. Aside from the changing lights, a restrained palette is limited to white, black, grays, blues, mirrored and clear plastics, which are at times etched.

Silence is an element of the exhibit as well — at least when only a few adult visitors are present — although one can imagine excited responses

IF YOU GO “Counterpoints” shows at Museum Outdoor Arts’ indoor gallery on the second floor of Englewood Civic Center, 1000 Englewood Parkway, through Dec. 15. In addition to this gallery exhibit, there are eight related monumental sculptures at Westlands Park, 5701 S. Quebec St., Greenwood Village — through Aug. 9, 2018 (check about artist-led tours in the spring at the park). Admission is free. The indoor gallery is open Tuesdays through Fridays. Moaonline.org.

303-806-0444. from younger art lovers, who will surely have a positive reaction to this visually stimulating collection — while dancing in front of the mirrors! Imagination takes one to some science-fiction world — far, far away.

Except that Charles Parson’s subtle drawings resemble the mountain ranges we see from any elevated spot near home here. The acrylic covers give them distance.

In the back corner gallery, each artist fills a wall with a single horizontal panel. Charles’ is “Diffused Boundary” mixed media, 2017. A drawing of a distant mountain range is mounted under a large sheet of clear acrylic,

secured with metal screws set in black plugs. The creamy paper is deckleedged, heavy.

Collin’s large piece is named “ECHO, echo” 2017, and is made of mirrored acrylic and RGB LEDS. The pulsing lights shine through rows of graduated openings—in alternating cycles of reds, blues, greens, yellows.

In the White Box Gallery, the visitor finds a few nicely lighted images of large pieces by each artist. Shadows are cast on the carpet, adding visual interest.

“Sculpture is a drawing in space,” Charles Parson remarks in the Sound Gallery video. “I’ve found my process — that’s who I am … Collin and I have daily discussions. We both like graduating shapes …” The film shows both men in their studios. Charles has a big space for working with steel beams and other bulky items, while Collin sketches on his computer, “reaching out to fabricators” to execute his designs, because 20 inches by 30 inches is as large as Collin can create at home.

The film shows him peeling plastic film off a big mirrored piece. “At 10 years old, I fell in love with light,” he said.

INJURIES

screens and cognitive activity can all aggravate concussion symptoms. As such, any student who has suffered one must be cleared by a physician before returning to school. Further evaluation and clearance is typically required before returning to light exercise and, eventually, playing time.

FROM PAGE 5

that concussions are now treated with in Colorado schools. After years of studies and stories about concussions and professional athletes, a thoughtful and careful approach to the condition is now in place for school staff, athletics administrators, parents and students.

“They’re usually 10 percent of the injuries we deal with,” Reasoner said, “but they take 90 percent of our time.”

‘I got scared’ One of the students Reasoner has spent a lot of time with is Grayson Engel, 17. Now a junior at Legend, Grayson suffered a concussion as a freshman playing on Legend’s football and rugby teams.

During rugby practice in April 2015, Grayson’s head was sandwiched between the other players’ heads as they collided. He didn’t black out, but he fell over and “really zoned out.”

“My teammates had to explain what happened,” he said.

His mother, Teresa, took Grayson to an urgent care facility that evening and became worried as he turned pale and failed the tests the doctor administered.

Teresa’s concerns were compounded by seeing media reports about concussions among NFL players, and managing a call center for clinics that treat college and professional athletes with brain damage.

Grayson Engel, a junior at Legend High School, suffered a concussion in 2015 playing rugby. Engel says he took the school’s recovery protocol seriously because he’s seen “I got scared,” she said. “How bad does it have to get for there to be consequences 20 years later?”

Over the last decade, the national discussion on chronic traumatic encephalopathy or CTE — a progressive degenerative disease of the brain found in people, many of them athletes, with a history of repetitive brain trauma — and the risk of longterm brain damage from concussions has grown louder.

Advertise: 303-566-4100 A study by neuropathologist Dr. Ann McKee found 110 of 111 brains of National Football League players had CTE. The results of her study were published in July in The Journal of the American Medical Association.

And the National High School SportsRelated Injury Surveillance Study, generated by the Center for Injury Research and Policy, reported that concussions accounted for almost 25 percent of all injuries sustained by high school athletes in the 2014-15 school year.

According to Bert Borgmann, assistant commissioner of the Colorado High School Activities Association, discussion about how to best handle head injuries has already been underway in Colorado schools.

“Some of (the NFL’s) research had already been going on at the high school and college level,” Borgmann said.

High school and college athletic programs were training coaches and athletes to prevent head injuries, but after seeing data on long-term effects from concussions, including CTE, CHSAA and its affiliates revised guidelines to ensure students are fully recovered before returning to classrooms and locker rooms.

“What’s even more important is almost every school district in Colorado now has return-to-learn protocols,” Borgmann said.

Taking it seriously Football causes the majority of concussions in high school sports, according to Reasoner, Borgmann and Vidlock. But students get concussions from soccer, cheerleading, skateboarding — even falls in the classroom — and they all go through the same process to return to school and sports.

“You can’t use your phone, you can’t watch TV,” Grayson said. “The majority of the day consists of sitting around and sleeping.”

Grayson waited a few days before returning to class, but it was three weeks before he did any assignments or light exercise with his rugby teammates. Six weeks after the injury he hit the rugby field again, just in time for the last game of the season.

The process was frustrating for him, but reassuring for Teresa.

“I remember feeling assured that the school was taking it so seriously,” Teresa said. “I was impressed that everyone was following the protocol to a T, no one was pushing him.”

Grayson kept his spot on the rugby team but quit playing football. Schoolwork and a part-time job were his primary reasons. But he watches the news, too.

“I’ve definitely seen all of the stuff about CTE,” he said. “This opened my mind that it can happen to anyone.”

More than a bell By their competitive nature, athletes tend to “walk it off ” when injured, but it’s not unheard of for coaches or parents to urge players back onto the field, court or ice too soon. Data on concussion risks and outcomes has been increasingly available over the last decade, but changing a culture can take generations.

But Vidlock says it’s happening, and she’s seen the difference firsthand.

Playing on her first-grade basketball team, Vidlock was concussed when a ball hit her in the face. Her coach’s response: “Get back on the court.”

An atmosphere of “positive coaching” has replaced playing through the pain in the years since her own experience, and Vidlock said the coaches and staff members she works with look out for their players’ health.

Students like Grayson may grow impatient waiting to return to their favorite activities, but nearly every parent Vidlock has worked with appreciates the process, she said.

Parents, school staff and students are now on the same page, Vidlock said.

“Now there’s communication between physicians and trainers, school nurses and teachers and school psychologists and guidance counselors,” she said.

“There used to be this feeling that it isn’t a concussion, they just ‘got their bell rung.’ Getting your bell rung is not a medical condition.”
