Summer camps teach art skills

By Michelle WIlliams news@currentinwestfield.com Summer is fast approaching, and school systems will soon begin summer break. Students in the community who enjoy learning art class may not have to wait until classes resume in August to continue learning about basic art skills.

MyArt is now enrolling students for its summer art camps at locations in Noblesville, Carmel, Fishers and Zionsville open to ages five and up.

According to owner Sylvia Runningen, spots are currently still open and generally begin to fill up early in May. Students may choose between weekly camps that run Monday through Thursdays, or one-day camps on Fridays. Full schedules for each location are available at MyArtIndy.com.

MyArt promotes a non-competitive environment and encourages individual creativity.

“Our art shows showcase the students’ hard work, and there are no prizes or competition.”

Runningen said. She also said that students are taught to understand that “beauty is in the eye of the beholder when it comes to art.”

Instructors focus on teaching the basics, such as drawing in proportion. “It’s similar to

Westfield students hone acting skills through improv league

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Westfield High School junior Lily Wessel has performed in theater since she was a little girl.

However, performing in the ComedyScover story portz High School League has been a whole new experience for her this school year. The league features comedy improv competition between teams. Members are awarded points by the audience for the ingenuity and humor.

“I like how none of it is planned and every single match is completely different,” Wessel said. “You have no idea what to expect.”

She said it’s much different than performing in a play or musical.

“It’s a different setting and set of skills,” she said. “It’s fun to experiment with it. I feel like I’ve gotten more bold with my choices on stage and creative with my responses.”

This has also been the first year for senior Jacob Carroll in ComedySportz.

“I love being able to do goofy things on stage and get away with it,” Carroll said.

“It’s so much fun.

We’re really a family here. I love everybody and love performing.

I did ‘Beauty and the Beast’ (in March)

and that was a blast.”

Sophomore Alexa Zavaleta also is doing the improv for the first time.

“There are a lot of first-year people but we’ve adapted really nice,” Zavaleta said. “You really feed off the energy from the audience. People don’t really know how hard it is to do it off the top of your head.”

Zavaleta said it helps with her acting.

“It helps you get into character and think about the choices you might make and where scenes can go,” she said.

Junior Cooper Tennent said the experience has absolutely made him a better actor.

“You always come up with different characters and do different things than you’ve ever done before,” he said.

Tennent, who serves as co-captain, is in his third year with the team.

“It’s way different than theater where you go by a script,” he said. “Comedy improv constantly changes and it’s so unpredictable. The audiences’ suggestions really make it exciting.

ComedySportz is my favorite, then the musicals and then the plays.”

Junior Jonny Robinson, who played the Beast in “Beauty in the Beast,” is in his second year with the improv group.

“I enjoy the interaction with the crowd and making people laugh,” he said. “This hones your sharpness and how quick you

are with responses. It helps with being less nervous in public.”

The school started competing after the March musical since Rhonda Adams, the school’s director of theater, runs both and many of the same performers are in each.

Adams said the tryouts for ComedySportz team are in September.

“We start workshops with the pros at ComedySportz in downtown Indianapolis October through January, every about two weeks,” she said. “Some schools will then start their season at the end of January.”

There are winners in each match, but Adams said it’s more important the audience has fun.

“The competitiveness is to get the audience involved rather than the detached side of when they are watching a play,” she said.

Westfield will have its final ComedySportz match at Center Grove on May 20.

Each match has a referee, who assigns the points with help from the audience.

Fishers High School English teacher Jon Colby, who directed Fishers’ musical “Peter Pan” in March, serves as one of the referees. Colby, who has performed with ComedySportz and Second City in Chicago, runs improv workshops.

“In some rounds, they each play a game and the audience votes on applause,” Colby said. “The audience gets to be the final vote. What’s cool is you think the home team is going to get the vote but sometimes the other team knocks it out of the park and the audience (rewards them).”

Mad about word count

FROM THE BA C K SH O P Letters, postings draw our attention The run-up to the recently concluded municipal primary elections provided excitement across the board. It happens every four years (although mostly we wish it were every year).

There was electricity in the community, and most of it was positive current. There were, however, times when we told one another that Election Day could not possibly come soon enough. We had “warring factions” going at it through letter-writing campaigns, and we had some borderline incendiary comments on our web sites. It’s fine with us if a letter writer or web commentator responsibly states his or her case for or against a certain candidate or proposal, but when it gets personal we step in and remove the offensive type. Some posts could have been construed as being libelous, and we’re not about to be a party to that. Our take is that if one wants to make a difference through words it should be done with measured clarity. Much of what was dealt with at Current boiled down to “he saidhe said,” and a lot of that was mean, nasty stuff. We’re not about that, and we don’t care to be associated with it. On the other hand, a lot of thoughtful writings were sent our way during the past month-plus, and we published those with dispatch. Is it our sanitizing practice or simply censorship? It isn’t in our view.

If there exist standards and those standards are violated, then we believe it is within our right to restrict or deny access to publishing on any of our platforms. One may make a point without being vicious, and many do it well. Of course (wink), this doesn’t apply to our writings about the federal government. To those that voted, thank you.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Thin skinned

Commentary by Terry Anker

Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never harm me. Most of us memorized the nursery rhyme almost as soon as we learned to talk. It reminds us that physical harm is not the same as emotional distress. But it also hoped to calm us when we felt besieged by those unable or unwilling to include us in their play. For many generations, children were taught the basic common law principle that to be determined an assault, an insult must be accompanied by actual physical violence.

Modern pundits have debated whether name-calling should be redefined to include an assertion that “words” can actually hurt more than a physical injury. Bullying, hate-crime, and a panoply of other laws are swamping the criminal justice system.

The internet is overflowing with stories of troubled folk who take their own lives pointing to brutal and unrelenting social media “names.” Radical Islam seems willing to indiscriminately take human life in retaliation for perceived insults. And, hooded thugs roam the streets, setting fires and

stealing flat-screens because of a politician’s incendiary and thoughtless populist remarks.

Clearly, words are powerful. But, when did we become so thin-skinned? Can we justify physical violence in reaction to mean-spirited, snarky or even intentionally provocative words? Is it right to tolerate this burgeoning oversensitivity? Or, is learning to deal with hurt feelings as a youngster that which leads us to develop the emotional maturity to contend with adult matters in later years?

No doubt, bullies should be punished; and, hate should have no place in the civic space. Yet can we hope to build laws to ensure that we never get our feelings hurt?

And perhaps more importantly, are we ever right to use real violence to answer an insult? Sometimes, cohabitation requires a little tolerance.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK Weekends don’t count unless you spend them doing something completely pointless - E. Jean Carroll

No, my dear readers, I’m in a ginger lather for two relatively inane reasons, both of which I will tell you about right now.

The first is what I’m calling “subliminal censorship,” though it really has nothing to do with restricting my freedom of speech.

Yesterday I received word that this column, my column, has been cut down to a mere 360 words, almost one hundred less than what I usually write. I know it’s to accommodate a resized newspaper, but I can’t help but feel demoted, even a tad unloved. How am I supposed to wax poetically of my husband Doo’s antics or our children’s teenage trials if I’m limited to four lousy paragraphs?

What about pushy PTOs and public breast feeders and non-vaccinators? Those require at least a half-page! Admittedly, I can pack a punch with creative phrasing and slight aberrations of the English language, but even for my considerate talents I will struggle.

On top of this professional slight, I experienced a near ham-tastrophe just an hour later. As part of our annual Kentucky Derby party prep, I mail order a country ham. (Indiana is not well-known for southern-style pork. Corn yes, salty swine, no.) Always the same company, always the same ham. Last year I discovered that they offer a spiral-cut version, which saves Doo an hour of meat cutting and several near-amputation misses.

But when I opened the box, instead of finding the normal thirteen to fifteen pound bone-in hock, I discovered this adorable little lump of a thing, clearly not worthy of serving forty to fifty plus. Clearly this was not the ham for which I’d hoped! Unfortunately, with only a day until the party, there is no time to re-order or to find a country replacement.

We’ll just have to make do with a boring honey-baked and up the mint julep servings to healthy two per.

I’d continue on with my rant, but sadly, I’m out of space. Peace out.

Why is everyone on TV a whiz on the computer keyboard? Two hands, eyes on the screen. I’ve been sitting at a humor keyboard my entire life. But I don’t type. I hunt. Then I peck.

Then I do a little more hunting and gathering … of mistakes. Sounds like bragging, but I’m not.

I don’t understand it when on a TV show the boss says, “I’m not accepting your resignation.” I wish this would have happened to me when I left previous jobs.

“I’m sorry, Dick, we do not accept your letter of resignation.”

“Okay, cool. But I’m still not coming to work.

Please send my check to this address.”

If a character on TV complains of a headache, you can bet that by the middle of the program, he’s going to have a mystery disease. Coughing also means trouble. This is why we are a nation of hypochondriacs. By the way, you never see anyone sneezing on TV. You’ve never thought about that, have you?

On television, couples are always talking to each other while one is brushing his or her teeth. But never with the proper technique.

It›s north/south with the brush, not east and

west. And you never see flossing. What a waste of a potential teaching moment.

When a cop has just been through the most harrowing experiences, his captain always says: “Go home and get some rest.” He has had eight cups of coffee and ten sugar donuts in the last 24 hours, and witnessed four murders. “Sure, boss, I‘m sure I’ll sleep like a baby.”

Oh, and where’s the snow? Most TV dramas are based somewhere really cold in the winter. But have you ever seen a cop trudging through a blizzard? We know it’s cold – we can see their breath – but I don’t think we’ll ever see any snow. That’s my prediction.

Finally, no one ever laughs in sitcoms.

People say the funniest things. The studio audience laughs, and folks at home get the giggles, but on the show no one even cracks a smile. I have a detailed explanation of this.

Lucky for you, there’s no room left in this column.

Celebrity vocal coach to visit MSV

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com

Peter Pan flies into Beef & Boards news@currentinwestfield.com

On May 14, Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre will debut the high-flying musical “Peter Pan.” Ticket prices range from $40$65 with discounts available for chilperformance dren ages 3-15. Prices include a buffet style dinner with entrees such as hand carved roast beef, breaded chicken tenderloins, Italian cod fillets along with sides and desserts.

B&B is a little different than most theatres in that dinner is included with each performance. For the first half of the evening the theatre is a restaurant and then a transition occurs.

After the buffet carts are put away the performance begins.

“Most theatres are not-for-profit organizations that don’t have to depend very heavily on ticket sales because they can write grants. Beef & Boards doesn’t have that at our disposal.

All of our budget for the shows comes directly from ticket sales. 100 percent,” said Eddie Curry, the show’s director.

The story of Peter Pan involves Peter and the Darling

children flying through the air. Aerial acts like these take additional work by the cast and crew. Troy Trinkle of Hall Associates Flying Effects has been brought in to teach the actors to fly.

This particular production has ties to 12 different central Indiana communities. Several local actors have been cast as the Lost Boys and the Darling children.

“It just goes to show that the talent in central Indiana is all over the place. This is a decidedly local/professional production because the locals that we’re using our professional quality actors,” said Curry.

Thede Tayor, who plays Peter Pan, is originally from the Indianapolis area but has been living in the New York City area for the last several years.

“So, even the one actress that we’re bringing in from out of town is originally from here anyway,” said Curry.

The production of “Peter Pan” runs through July 3. For more information or to purchase tickets visit www.beefandboards. com.

Ron Browning has been dubbed as “Vocal Coach to the Stars.”

Browning will be a music special guest of Midwest School of Voice in Carmel from June 22-26.

Browning will conduct one-on-one personal sessions with each student.

The half-hour lesson, which also inBrowning cludes one of the school’s coaches, costs $135, MSV customer and public relations manager Erica Thompson said.

“Students can not video record the sessions, however, they can bring in a vocal recording device,” Thompson said. “Then Ron will allow them to record portions of their sessions,” Thompson said.

Browning’s long client list includes includes Carrie Underwood, Wynonna Judd, Patti LaBelle, Alison Krauss and Keb Mo, a three-time Grammy winning blues musician.

The Nashville-based coach also serves as a vocal and performance coach at the Nashville Jazz Workshop and is a voting member of both The Grammy Foundation and the Country Music Award Association.

Browning visited MSV last year to conduct a group session.

“MSV includes several up-to-date music studios (each teacher has his or her own studio with recording and other equipment, etc.), large rooms for group meetings and performances and a top-notch staff gifted in voice, guitar and piano,” Browning stated. “If you live anywhere in the area, Midwest School of Voice is the place to study.”

MSV founders/coaches Blair Clark and Heather Ramsey Clark are students of Browning.

The school is for all ages.

“We’ve had students as young as five and as old as 80,” Thompson said.

Thompson said the lessons are starting to fill up. To register, call 660-1372. Thompson said more than one halfhour session can be booked by each student.

If vocalists have not previously worked one-on-one with a MSV coach, Browning requires a vocal evaluation to be completed with an MSV coach prior to booking a session with him. Browning only works with referrals from labels, major studios or coaches who are familiar with his techniques. The vocal evaluations can be booked by calling the MSV main office, or by using the online scheduling system at discovermsv.com.

“This is a unique opportunity for students since he usually only takes referrals from labels,” Thompson said.

Cinderella: Celebrating 15 years of performances

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com

A classic tale loved by all will be performed at the Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre in Carmel on May 16 by Central Indiana dance Dance Ensemble. The dancers will perform a full-length story ballet of “Cinderella” at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m.

The performance runs around two hours including the intermission. Tickets cost $25 for adults, and $18 for children under 18.

The CIDE has performed “Cinderella” two other times, but not in the past five years.

They are putting the story together to celebrate their 15th anniversary. Recently, the “Cinderella” movie was released, and the CIDE believe the publicity from the movie will bring more attendance.

“I think it’s the perfect time to perform this ballet because the “Cinderella” movie just came out a few weeks ago so now we have a real, live version for families to enjoy,” Alexa Amatulli, marketing supervisor for the CIDE board of directors, said.

Amatulli said that spring performances usually always sell out.

“We perform popular movies that people know and that they want to see on stage,”

Megan Hustel dances with a broom in “Cinderella.” (Submitted photo)

Amatulli said. She also said she believes the show will sell out quick.All dancers at CIDE are pre-professional, aged anywhere from kindergarten to seniors in high school. Normally the older dancers put on the full length story ballets.

Tickets are available through the Center of Performing Arts Box Office. They can be reached at 843-3800 or online at cftpa.cloudtix.com.

The Stratford will sponsor and styles are sponsored by The Secret Ingredient. Sharon

Terry of the Coxhall Guild was excited to discuss the event and said: “A lot of people don’t realize that the Coxhall Mansion and Children’s Garden are Hamilton County parks.”

This event will be a great reminder.

Tickets are $40 per person and will include the lunch which is catered by the Ritz Charles, as well as the style show itself.

“Our 11 models are all from the Coxhall Guild, and are of all ages,” Terry said.

To be used for economic revitalization, Westfield, after placing as a quarterfinalist in the American’s Best Communities Competition, has been given $50,000. development The city says they will use the money to flesh out the long-awaited Grand Junction Plaza project that will give the downtown area a major facelift.

“We are thrilled to receive this award as Westfield continues to move ahead with the community’s vision for downtown,” Mayor Andy Cook said. “We will Kingshill make every dollar count as we build a community that residents and business owners can be proud of.”

The competition is designed to spark economic vitality in small towns, and drew 347 applications from 27 states.

“As soon as I saw this competition I knew it would be a perfect fit for the Grand Junction Plaza project,” said Ken Kingshill, executive director of the Downtown Westfield Association who submitted the application. “Every day we are getting closer to seeing the Grand Junction project become a reality.”

While the competition will not be completely finished until 2017, the city is working for the next six months to be one of 15 semifinalists which would give another $100,000. In April 2017, the top three will be announced. The winning community will be awarded $3 million, with $2 million for second place and $1 million for third.

The City of Westfield has reported that the first quarter of the year has left them with an estimated $46.6 million in improvements, coming from issued permits. development “The level of economic activity in Westfield over the past several months has been incredible,” Matt Skelton, economic and community development director, said. “Based on the trajectory of the past several months of plan commission petitions, we expect this year’s permit activity to significantly increase Skelton over last year’s record highs.”

The report highlights several notable achievements for the community, including an expansion by AgReliant’s world headquarters that will add 31 jobs and improve its existing facility by an estimated $4 million, as well as the entrance of fiber provider Metronet in Westfield’s internet market.

Residential numbers included in the report show growth in subdivisions, including Maple Village (23 permits), Viking Meadows (21 permits) and Keeneland Park (20 permits).

“These numbers only reinforce our strategy here in Westfield,” Mayor Andy Cook said. “Projects like Grand Park and Grand Junction Plaza, our world-class schools and high quality of life are attracting residents and businesses to invest in our community for the long haul.”

Morro Castle in Havana, Cuba. (Photo by Don Knebel)

With Americans now able to travel to Havana, they can visit a sixteenth century fortress that played a role in travel creating an often-overlooked fourteenth English colony.

Spanish explorers founded Havana in 1519 near a harbor on the north side of Cuba. Havana soon became the primary port for shipping goods from the New World back to Spain.

When gold ships docked in the port proved sitting ducks for Caribbean pirates, Spanish authorities ordered construction of a large fortress on a hill overlooking the narrow entrance to the harbor. The fortress, completed in about 1640, was named “Castillo de los Tres Reyes Magos del Morro” after the Three Magi. Dubbed “Morro Castle,” the fortress had an artillery battery called “Twelve Apostles” pointing toward the water. A chain stretching from the castle to the other side of the harbor entrance blocked pirate ships from penetrating the port.

With its port protected by the astle, Havana grew rich providing supplies for vessels heading for Spain. By the middle of the eighteenth century, Havana was the third largest city in the Americas. In 1762, during its Seven Years’ War with France and Spain, England sent

4,000 troops to Cuba and captured Morro Castle by attacking it from the unarmed land side, a tactic that apparently caught the Spanish defenders unprepared. Having lost control of the bustling Havana port, Spain ceded Cuba to England. A year later, England traded Cuba back to Spain in exchange for Florida, a deal many in England thought foolish because of the wealth and importance of Cuba. Florida became England’s fourteenth American colony, but refused to join the other colonies in seeking independence. In 1783, England returned Florida to Spain in the Treaty of Paris ending the American Revolution.

Today, the well-preserved but inadequately signed Morro Castle is open to the public. Every night at precisely 9 p.m., guards in Spanish colonial uniforms fire a rusty cannon, a ritual originally intended to signal Havana residents the gates of their city were closing. Few Americans hearing the cannon shots know that the unexpected vulnerability of Morro Castle led to an additional, but short-lived, English colony.

Covered porch creates outdoor living area

Commentary by Larry Greene

ORIGINAL BACKYARD: This home, located in the Haverstick subdivision in east Carmel, was built in 1998 with a step down concrete patio.

“After moving back to blueprint for Carmel to be closer to our grandchildren, we improvement wanted to recreate the look of our Florida lanai off the back of our new house.”

COVERED VS SCREENED-IN-PORCH: “The existing patio and landscaping felt constrictive and the steps leading down were not safe for us to use. We wanted an open covered porch level with the house so that we can safely enjoy the outdoors and wildlife.”

FRAMING & ROOFING DETAILS: After completing the deck foundation and surface installation work, the new covered porch was set on 6x6 treated wood posts and 2” x 12” structural beams to support the new roof.

Matching shingles and gutters were installed to complete the rough carpentry of the covered porch. The structure was then painted to match the existing house trim color to create a cohesive look.

COMPOSITE DECKING: Trex Transcend decking material with hidden fasteners was

before & after

chosen due to its low maintenance and resistance to the scorching sun, scratches and mold. “Tree House” color was chosen for the trim, main deck and railing.

PORCH DETAILS: A concrete pad was poured off of the porch steps to create an area dedicated for bird feeding. The cathedral ceiling adds visual interest and helps the space feel more open. A ceiling fan and two recessed lights were installed on dimmer switches to help create perfect ambience.

RESULT: “The porch has become one of the most relaxing areas in our home. We love how it makes the house feel so much bigger and open. The best part is being able to open the back windows and door and enjoy the breeze throughout the whole house.”
