CULTURAL ARTS

The Town of Superior Cultural Arts and Public Spaces (CAPS) Advisory Committee brings a wide range of creativity to the community in the form of small events, workshops and the selection of artworks for the public art collection. Check out the Cultural Arts webpage for more information.

SUPERIOR EN PLEIN AIR PAINTING FESTIVAL Painting in Purple Park is back! The CAPS committee is proud to host the 2022 En Plein Air Painting Festival on Saturday, October 1, 10 a.m. to 1:00 PM at Purple Park, located at 1310 S. Pitkin Avenue. Plein air painting, the act of painting “live” outdoors, was essential to many impressionist artists such as Claude Monet and Pierre-Auguste Renoir.

During the event, the public will be invited to stroll around the park to watch over a dozen artists create their masterpieces. Additionally, a separate activity station will be available for youths and other participants who would like to try their hand at making art. Music, food and other activities will also be available at this artful fall event.

HIDDEN TREASURES

The CAPS committee recently purchased the sculptural series Hidden Treasures by artist Scottie Burgess -- and treasures they are! The series of 7 cast bronze hands holding large gem crystals were initially on loan to the Town as part of the ARTery pilot project. Residents have come to adore locating the hidden artworks that are installed both inside and outside the vicinity of the Superior Community Center. Come treasure hunting to find them all!

The goal of these classes is to become more comfortable leaving your comfort zone — learning new ways to confidently create and contribute to a fun, imaginative and supportive environment.

Each class is designed with simple exercises to have you leave with a greater appreciation of your perspective, talent, brilliance, and humor.

Increasing research shows that selfcompassion is strongly associated with emotional wellbeing, coping with life challenges, lower levels of anxiety and depression, healthy habits such as diet and exercise, and more satisfying, compassionate relationships.

MSC is a empirically-supported program designed to cultivate the skill of self-compassion in daily life. This training program is based on the research of Kristin Neff and clinical expertise of Chris Germer. MSC teaches core principles that enable participants to respond to difficult moments in their lives with kindness, care and understanding.

Come Play!

Autrey Park Pickleball Courts

Come play at Superior’s six pickleball courts at Autry Park. If you are a beginner and would like to try out the sport but don’t have a paddle, come and check one out from the Superior Community Center. (Quantities are limited to first-come, first-served).

Courts are open from dawn to dusk, seven days a week, and operate on an Open Play system.

Please visit superiorrec.com for drop-in “Open Play" hours.

OPEN PLAY “Paddle Holder” SYSTEM When all courts are full and other players are waiting: All games will be played to 11, win by 1.

Waiting players place a paddle for each player on the paddle rack.

When a game finishes, players announce “Open Court”. The court is then vacated for the waiting players with paddles on the rack.

When players move to the court to begin play, they have a 5-minute warmup period and then begin play to 11, and win by 1.

Waiting players advance their paddles forward on the paddle holder and will play on the next available court.

The process repeats as long as others are waiting to play.
