All programs are produced in cooperation with the National Park Service and Montgomery County, Maryland. The George Washington Memorial Parkway, which administers Glen Echo Park and the Clara Barton National Historic Site, is one of almost 400 national parks in the United States. The National Park Service cares for special places saved by the American people so that all may experience our heritage.

A Note From the Partnership Dear Friends, Spring is a time of renewal, and we hope you will consider classes and events at Glen Echo Park as a vital part of renewing your spirit this season. We are excited to offer new visual and performing arts classes with the Dana Tai Soon Burgess Dance Company, Silverworks, and the Washington Conservatory of Music. In addition, we have added new fiber arts classes for kids and adults, including knitting, weaving, felting, quilting, and mixed media. [see pages 10, 23 & 36] & PROGRAMS We’ll also have Summer Camps of all kinds for kids and teens ages 5 through 19. New summer camps in fiber CHILDREN’S CLASSES art, printmaking and other media are available this year. [see pages 6, 8 & 10] Whether your children love theater or painting, photography or music, we’ll have a camp to spark their creativity. See pages 16-17 for our Camps-at-a- Glance schedule. Please join us as we open the summer season at Family Day on April 29 when the historic Dentzel Carousel comes to life again to begin its 97th season at Glen Echo Park.

Our 2017 Summer Concert Series will once again bring music to the Park every Thursday evening from June through August. Held in the covered Bumper Car Pavilion, all performances are free and feature local bands playing jazz, blues, folk, classical, Latin, and more. The Partnership and the Park’s resident visual arts organizations will collaborate again this season to present Art Walk in the Park, a monthly evening of open studios & galleries, artist demonstrations, and refreshments presented on the first Friday of the month from May through September. See page 96 for more details. ADULT & TEEN ADULT Finally, our annual Gala in the Park will be held on May 20. The theme for this year’s can’t-miss event is Celebrate

VISUAL ARTS & VISUAL MUSIC History in Our Backyard . [see page 96] It is always a great evening and a wonderful way to support the park’s unique programs and facilities. You can find everything you need to enjoy the Park’s classes and events in this catalog—or online at www.glenechopark.org. Katey Boerner, Executive Director, Glen Echo Park Partnership for Arts and Culture

A Note from the National Park Service Welcome to Glen Echo Park. I hope your visit here is enjoyable whether you visit to attend a show, festival or dance, to have a picnic, or take a class in any of the dozens of art forms that are studied here. Take a moment to experience the beauty of the Park and think about its history. Incredible fun has been AND PROGRAMS experienced here by thousands of people of all ages during the era of the amusement park. People left their cares at the front CHILDREN’S CLASSES gate and were thrilled riding on the Coaster Dips, scared in the Hall of Mirrors, and enchanted by the carousel. Visitors during the Great Depression and both World Wars did exactly that and more at Glen Echo Amusement Park. They danced Swing in the Spanish Ballroom at night and rode the streetcar back home to Washington D.C. If these walls could talk they would speak of courageous citizens who protested the amusement park’s segregation policy and ultimately won the fight to open the park to all in 1961. Walls would speak of restoration, reuse and a place of community. The National Park System turned one hundred years old in 2016 and the Find Your Park campaign helps us consider how important our National Parks are to our lives. We hope you will consider Glen Echo Park-“your park”-and come back again and again. Join a ranger led program in the coming year to learn more about this special place.

This inclusive approach is dedicated to the ideals of nurturing and educating the whole person through music education. The parent or caregiver plays a vital role in the learning process, helps the child practice what is learned, and attends private lessons and group lessons with their child. This exciting program includes weekly private lessons, group classes, solo and group recitals, and outreach events.

J. Jordan Bruns was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, but has lived in 13 different locations around the United States ranging from Nashville, Tennessee to Maui, Hawaii. He attended the Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA) where he continued to travel abroad while he obtained a BFA in both painting and illustration. While at MICA, he worked with watercolors and traditional oils, specializing in story illustration and portraiture. After earning his undergraduate degree, he embarked on a road trip across the United States spanning 45 states over an 8-month time period painting landscapes from the trunk of his car. His exhibitions have been viewed across the United States from a solo show in the Indiana University Art Museum to SCOPE Miami during Art Basel week. He currently works as the resident artist in the Chautauqua Tower as well as an instructor for The Yellow Barn Studio and Gallery. J. Jordan Bruns’ work can be viewed on the second and third floors of the Chautauqua Tower, adjacent to the Yellow Barn, in Glen Echo Park. As a resident artist, he creates large-scale paintings and drawings that play with themes of balance, movement, and surface. His work often starts as nothing more than splashed paint or smeared graphite; and, as he described it, he sometimes finds himself ‘poking and prodding the work’s surface 06 COMMUNICATION NO. 4, MIXED MEDIA ON PANEL BY J.

Glen Echo Park 301.320.1400 www.nps.gov/glec For over a century, Glen Echo Park has welcomed residents of the Greater Washington Area to an ever-changing venue of activities. The history of constant change though, has led to tension as Chautauqua dreamers, amusement park thrill seekers, and National Park Service preservationists sought to adapt to the needs of current visitors. This affected not only the architectural styles of the buildings, but also the landscape— everything from walkways to parking lots to lighting. PROGRAMS Edward and Edwin Baltzley in 1891 hoped to entertain and educate the District’s urban populace in a National Chautauqua while preserving the site’s rugged natural beauty. The amusement park owners thrilled visitors with exciting

NATIONAL PARK SERVICE PARK NATIONAL rides. Finally, the National Park Service and the Glen Echo Park Partnership for Arts and Culture have collaborated to provide the public with appealing artist studios and arts spaces while preserving the Park’s diverse history. NPS works closely with the Glen Echo Park Partnership to preserve the cultural resources at Glen Echo Park. Over the years, this has involved determining whether to preserve, rehabilitate, restore, or reconstruct historic structures. After 120 years, all that remains from the Baltzley’s Chautauqua of 1891 is a solitary stone tower which is now the restored stone tower, home to the Stone Tower Gallery and Jordan Bruns’ studio (see pages 93 and 61). But their idea of a premier green space where visitors could refresh and restore themselves has thrived as a vibrant cultural community to this day.

Clara Barton-Between the Bullet and the Battlefield Miss Barton wrote: “My business is stanching blood and feeding fainting men; my post the open field between the bullet and the hospital.” The Civil War set Miss Barton on a path of service, one where she endured some of the same terrible conditions and extreme dangers as the soldiers. This path took Miss Barton to Antietam, where she worked as the battle raged around her. At the battle of Fredericksburg, she was the only woman working at the front! This illustrated talk by a park ranger from Clara Barton National Historic Site will use photos from the Civil War era to explore the dangers Clara Barton faced and the accomplishments she achieved. This free program is available for groups of ten or more at Clara Barton National Historic Site or at off-site locations in the Washington D.C. metro area. To make reservations, call: 301.320.1407.
