Despite the Arctic’s reputation as a barren wasteland, award-winning photographer Florian Schulz discovered a vibrant ecosystem including playful polar bears, mysterious musk ox, and a herd of thousands of caribou over the course of 34 months in the high arctic.

  • The Frothy Band at Imminent Brewery, Northfield Minnesota on April 7Th, 7- 10 Pm
    April Irish Music & 2018 Márt Dance Association Márta The mission of the Irish Music and Dance Association is to support and promote Irish music, dance, and other cultural traditions to insure their continuation. Inside this issue: IMDA Recognizes Dancers 2 Educational Grants Available Thanks You 6 For Irish Music and Dance Students Open Mic Night 7 The Irish Music and Dance Association (IMDA) would like to lend a hand to students of Irish music, dance or cultural pursuits. We’re looking for students who have already made a significant commitment to their studies, and who could use some help to get to the next level. It may be that students are ready to improve their skills (like fiddler and teacher Mary Vanorny who used her grant to study Sligo-style fiddling with Brian Conway at the Portal Irish Music Week) or it may be a student who wants to attend a special class (like Irish dancer Annie Wier who traveled to Boston for the Riverdance Academy). These are examples of great reasons to apply for an IMDA Educational Grant – as these students did in 2017. 2018 will be the twelfth year of this program, with help extended to 43 musicians, dancers, language students and artists over the years. The applicant may use the grant in any way that furthers his or her study – help with the purchase of an instrument, tuition to a workshop or class, travel expenses – the options are endless. Previous grant recipients have included musicians, dancers, Irish language students and a costume designer, but the program is open to students of other traditional Irish arts as well.

  • Bergen Goes to Broadway 2017/2018 Season
    BERGEN GOES TO BROADWAY 2017/2018 SEASON Our Bergen Goes to Broadway series is pleased to announce its exciting 2017/2018 season with the opportunity to attend the following outstanding Broadway productions! Because of the popularity and the high demand for tickets to these performances, the due dates for payment are already upon us. Please join us for all performances or choose those that are most appealing to you. Tickets are limited and are open to the entire Bergen Catholic community. Checks should be made out to Bergen Catholic and sent to the attention of Barbara Peraino. Our opening shows, Come from Away, and closing show, Dear Evan Hansen, have already sold out! However, we are pleased to announce that tickets are now available for the following production that is about to take the Broadway stage by storm as well as the continuing smash hit, School of Rock! The Band`s Visit - Thursday, January 4th 2018. Dinner at Tony DiNapoli and transportation is included in the $120.00 cost of the trip. Payment is due by September 10th. “Some shows are so full of heart and so overflowing with integrity — of talent, of skill and of purpose – that a critic is torn between singing its praises from the rooftops and wanting to protect something rare and fragile. Even when, truth to tell, a great show is usually a tough one as well, able to withstand the pressure of raves and the demand to sacrifice a little bit of proximity to reach a wider audience. That was true of Rent, and Spring Awakening and, of course, Hamilton.
