05 2014 UPTOWN ARTS STROLL HONOREES

We are recognizing Annette A. Aguilar for her renowned career as drummer, musician, band leader and educator, and for her tireless effort to engage the community and local businesses in the appreciation of Latin jazz and world music. Aguilar is a multi-percussionist, recording artist, producer and bandleader born in San Francisco to a family from Nicaragua. She began playing music at the age of eleven. By age 16 she was performing with renowned Latin artists from Santana, Cal Tjader and Pete and Sheila Escovedo (Sheila E). She earned a B.A. in music performance from San Francisco State University, and Masters from the Manhattan School of Music and CUNY. Aguilar worked in Grammy award winning Broadway shows and symphony orchestras (she is the principal timpanist for the Bronx Symphony), toured and shared the stage with The Four Tops, Stevie Wonder, Tito Puente, Dave Valentine, The Grateful Dead, Mose Allison, Toshi Reagon, Casselberry- Dupree, Darlene Love and other New York City Pop, Jazz and Latin groups. Aguilar is a two-time NoMAA grantee. In 1992, she formed her Latin and Brazilian jazz group, Annette A. Aguilar & StringBeans, that has produced three CDs - Special Friends, NO Cheap Dates, and The Day Waits for NOBODY in 2009 for a performance at the ANNETTE A. AGUILAR Kennedy Center in Washington, DC. Aguilar & StringBeans were selected three times as Latin Jazz Ambassadors for the US State Department, the Kennedy Center and Jazz at Lincoln Center.

We are paying tribute to René De Los Santos for his outstanding work as an artist and community activist whose selfless dedication helped build strong collaborations among Dominican professional artists that afforded Northern Manhattan one of the most creative and active artists collectives, Dominican York Proyecto GRAFICA. One of 14 siblings, De Los Santos is a self-taught fine artist born in Santiago, Dominican Republic. His artistic career started in 1990 when he created his own style of figurative and naïve art that expresses an astral spiritual composition. His work has showed in many collective exhibits such as “Essence & Colors of Dominican Artists” in Providence, R.I., “Uptown Arts Stroll”, “ADAVARTE II & I- The Visual Arts Festival of Washington Heights & Inwood”, “Transición, Imágenes y Colores,” Centro Comunal Tamboril, “Dominicans Breaking Through,” Comisionado Dominicano de Cultura in the U.S., “Noche Artística in DA Heights,” ARKA Lounge, and “The Power of Art” in Washington Heights & Inwood, NYC, which was organized by the Alliance of Dominican American Visual Artists (ADAVA) as part of the Arts Stroll of 2007 just to name a few. De los Santos artwork is displayed often at NoMAA Gallery RENÉ DE LOS SANTOS exhibits and in this year’s Open Studios. He has curated and exhibited at countless shows in New York City and the Dominican Republic.

06 We are honoring Sky Pape for her distinguished career as an artist and outstanding ambassadorship for our arts community around the world. Pape’s abstractions explore nature through unconventional uses of traditional drawing materials. Her work is in collections at the Museum of Modern Art, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, the Brooklyn Museum of Art, the National Museum of Women in the Arts, Tiffany & Co., Le Cirque du Soleil, and other public, corporate, and private collections. Pape’s awards and honors include residency fellowships in Italy at The Rockefeller Foundation’s Bellagio Center and The Bogliasco Foundation’s Liguria Study Center for the Arts & Humanities, as well as grants from the Pollock-Krasner Foundation, the Canada Council for the Arts, the E.D. Foundation, and Northern Manhattan Arts Alliance. Her artwork has been selected by the Art in Embassies Program of the United States Department of State for exhibition in Uruguay, and has been shown internationally since the early 1980s. Pape is a three-time NoMAA grantee who frequently appears in NoMAA exhibitions, workshops and the Uptown Arts Stroll including this year’s Open Studios. She is represented by June Kelly Gallery in New York City. Pape is an ardent nature-nerd, culture-hound, SKY PAPE and pom-pom waver for creative folks of all stripes. Born in Canada, she lives and works in Northern Manhattan.

We are honoring community dynamo Janifer Wilson for the pioneering Sister’s Uptown Bookstore and Cultural Center. Wilson grew up in small town Georgia during the civil rights era. As a little girl she felt invisible. This feeling came from the lack of depiction of people who looked like her in textbooks at schools and libraries. Wilson dreamed of her grandfather’s stories and history that would become inclusive of people of color and how that would look in books. Little did she know there were books written by and about people of color and the important role they have in society. Wilson has resided over 30 years in Washington Heights. In January 2000, Wilson took a leap of faith and opened Sister’s Uptown Bookstore at 1942 Amsterdam Avenue and added Sister’s Uptown Cultural Center in June 2007. The bookstore provides resources to community members to nurture minds, hearts and souls with present and past works of gifted African American authors and other great writers and intellectuals. She is proud to say Sister’s Uptown Bookstore is the last female black-owned bookstore in New York City. Sister’s Uptown Bookstore recently celebrated 14 years of community service in Washington Heights. Sister’s is not just a bookstore; it’s a community resource center JANIFER WILSON for the exchange of information and ideas whose motto is “knowledge is key.”

07 Proudly supports The Northern Manhattan Arts Alliance And the 2014 Uptown Arts Stroll in Washington Heights-Inwood

Congratulations to this year’s Honorees! Annette A. Aguilar René de los Santos Sky Pape Janifer Wilson
