  • Fences Study Guide
    Pacific Conservatory Theatre Student Matinee Program Presents August Wilson’s Fences Generously sponsored by Franca Bongi-Lockard Nancy K. Johnson A Study Guide for Educators Welcome to the Pacific Conservatory Theatre A NOTE TO THE TEACHER Thank you for bringing your students to PCPA at Allan Hancock College. Here are some helpful hints for your visit to the Marian Theatre. The top priority of our staff is to provide an enjoyable day of live theatre for you and your students. We offer you this study guide as a tool to prepare your students prior to the performance. SUGGESTIONS FOR STUDENT ETIQUETTE Note-able behavior is a vital part of theater for youth. Going to the theater is not a casual event. It is a special occasion. If students are prepared properly, it will be a memorable, educational experience they will remember for years. 1. Have students enter the theater in a single file. Chaperones should be one adult for every ten students. Our ushers will assist you with locating your seats. Please wait until the usher has seated your party before any rearranging of seats to avoid injury and confusion. While seated, teachers should space themselves so they are visible, between every groups of ten students. Teachers and adults must remain with their group during the entire performance. 2. Once seated in the theater, students may go to the bathroom in small groups and with the teacher's permission. Please chaperone younger students. Once the show is over, please remain seated until the House Manager dismisses your school. 3. Please remind your students that we do not permit: - food, gum, drinks, smoking, hats, backpacks or large purses - disruptive talking.

  • Your Concise New York Art Guide for Spring 2018
    Your Concise New York Art Guide for Spring 2018 February 28, 2018 Events Your list of 45 must-see, fun, insightful, and very New York art events this season. Leonard Fink, “Self-Portrait on Pier 46 (“This is Serious Too”)” (1979), silver gelatin print, 8 x 10 in (collection and © of the LGBT Community Center National History Archive) We’re back with our yearly spring guide of must-see, fun, insightful, and very New York art events. From museum shows to air fairs to film festivals, you’ll have plenty to keep you busy with this season. Please note that some of the exhibitions listed here opened in January and February, but lucky for us they continue through the spring. January The Beautiful Brain: The Drawings of Santiago Ramon y Cajal and Baya: Woman of Algiers When: January 9–March 31 Where: Grey Art Gallery (100 Washington Square East, Greenwich Village, Manhattan) The Grey Art Gallery is putting on two fascinating and very distinct exhibitions this season. One displays neuroscientist Santiago Ramon y Cajal’s drawings of the brain, which are not only beautiful but remarkably clear and accurate. Eighty of his drawings, which date to the late 19th and early 20th centuries, will be shown alongside contemporary visualizations of the brain. The gallery’s second exhibition is devoted to Baya Mahieddine (known as Baya), an Algerian artist who has yet to gain international recognition. Her vibrant, patterned gouaches Baya, “Femme et enfant en bleu (Woman and child in blue)” (1947) and ceramics drew the attention gouache on board, 22 3/4 x 17 7/8 in (Collection Isabelle Maeght, Paris © of André Breton, Henri Matisse, Photo Galerie Maeght, Paris) and Pablo Picasso.

  • Le Aziende Del Fashion Sui Listini Mondiali Rallentano Nel 2014
    EDITORIALE MERCATI DI IERI PUBBLICO DI DOMANI di David Pambianco stato un inizio d’anno con spunti di ottimismo. L’andamento delle prime fiere del settore ha riservato, questa volta, sorprese positive. Le manifestazioni Èdell’uomo di Firenze e Milano hanno registrato crescite importanti dei visita- tori e soprattutto dei buyer. Lo stesso clima positivo si è registrato negli appuntamenti della casa e del bambino. Questa inaspettata ‘ripartenza’ è il risultato di molteplici fat- tori. Ci sono aspetti contingenti, come un calendario con cadenze più gestibili rispetto a quello dell’anno precedente e (soprattutto per Pitti Uomo) la chiusura, all’ultimo momento, della fiera tedesca Bread & Butter. Ma ci sono anche fattori macro-econo- mici. Da una parte del mondo, la locomotiva americana ha ripreso a marciare; dall’al- tra parte, la fiducia ha risvegliato gli acquisti in Giappone. Questi due poli sono da sempre la terra di conquista del made in Italy. Rappresentano le fondamenta dell’ex- port nazionale del settore, senza le quali il rischio è di rimanere sempre in bilico. Ma attenzione. Tutto ciò che sta in mezzo, dalla Russia alla Cina, non va sottovalu- tato. La Russia rappresenta un mercato che, per anni, ha sostenuto i conti del lusso italiano, sia delle grandi sia delle piccole imprese: oggi, paga la crisi nazionale ed è di fronte a una ristrutturazione-riposizionamento che sarà utile studiare con attenzione, perché potrebbe riservare soddisfazioni a marchi italiani capaci di proporre una qua- lità più accessibile, dunque un più ampio ventaglio di marchi made in Italy. Mentre la domanda cinese, che ha stupito per la rapida escalation, non deve oggi stupire per l’attuale fase di assestamento.
