We wish to recognize all the people who have helped make the past 20 years so special and spectacular. Our public school teachers, principals and administrators have supported our weekly classes. Our instructors and musicians have created joyful classroom experiences and inspiring performances that will serve as memories for a lifetime. Our parents, families, and audience members have attended shows and cheered for the performers’ achievement and excellence. Our public officials have forged strong partnerships to make our programs accessible to our communities. Our donors and volunteers have generously given from their hearts to make it all possible.

We have our dedicated donors and champions to thank for this tremendous milestone in the history of NDI New Mexico. Not only did we reach our financial goals, but construction on the final phase concluded as of April 1, 2014. Which means….The Hiland is complete!

From the colorful Children’s Entrance to the light-filled meeting rooms on the second floor, every inch of The Hiland has undergone a complete revitalization and is helping us carry out our mission in Albuquerque and throughout the state.

Visiting The Hiland on a busy day, you may see the east side full of students from the littlest Tiny Tot to experienced tap dancers, while energetic Outreach instructors lead SWAT and Celebration team rehearsals in the theater; in the newest west side studios, Evelyn directs rehearsals for Company XCel, NDI New Mexico’s most advanced group of dancers. Each week, 720 children utilize this wonderful space, bringing energy and a sense of possibility to our halls.

As rewarding as it is to reach our financial target, it is the meaning of those numbers that is most important. Gifts to The Hiland have made so much possible:

✬✬Renovation of the east side into an after-school center for children and their families featuring 5 state-of-the-art studios/teaching spaces ✬✬Restoration of the original theater into a convertible space with seating for 600 where we host thousands of audience members each year ✬✬Expansion of the number of students we serve in Albuquerque – from 1,200 to 2,200 (with further growth on the horizon!) ✬✬Recent completion of the west side, providing office space for staff and two additional studios ✬✬Successful completion of the Kresge Foundation challenge match ✬✬Much-needed new jobs and increased foot traffic in the Highland neighborhood

spotlight ON EVELYN CISNEROS-LEGATE

After a 2-year search, NDI New Mexico welcomed Evelyn Cisneros to the Artistic staff as Hiland Program Director this year. As a former ballerina for the , Evelyn is a shining example of our Core Four: Work Hard, Do Your Best, Never Give Up, and Be Healthy. As a child, she trained at the San Francisco Ballet School where her promise as a ballerina was widely recognized. Thanks to her hard work and dedication, by the age of 18 she was offered a long-term contract with San Francisco Ballet where she soon became the company’s favorite dancer. She captivated audiences worldwide and enjoyed an illustrious 23-year career with the company.

A powerful role model, Evelyn is considered the first Hispanic prima ballerina in the United States and has performed on the greatest stages in the world. Evelyn first discovered her talent by accident, when her mother enrolled her in a ballet class as a way to overcome her extreme shyness as a young child. As the Hiland Director, Evelyn oversees program quality and curriculum for after-school classes, and leads our wonderful team of Hiland instructors. She also teaches numerous ballet Making classes each week, including Company XCel. “I am so proud of the progress the XCel students have made over our first six months together; ballet is such a difficult art form that takes great concentration and commitment. They have not tired of the work and continue to work diligently towards meeting technical demands. It is a challenging but fun History journey together.” Evelyn’s extensive career and teaching at experience, as well as her gifts to mentor and guide our students make her a perfect fit to support our mission of The Hiland teaching children excellence. Welcome, Evelyn! ■ All the hours teaching in the studio are worth the effort when just one student is turned on by the art form.

spotlight ON CHUCK & BARBARA MOORE

Moving to Santa Fe, with its long history of being creatively and culturally diverse from New York City, has proven to be a wonderful location for the continued development of Barbara’s and Chuck’s interest in the support of educational initiatives in the visual and performing arts. When asked, and in perfect alignment of that interest, Barbara joined the NDI New Mexico Board in 2011 and continues to serve in the continuation and building of a solid future for this incredible organization.

When Barbara and Chuck were first married, Barbara was a Junior High School teacher in Houston. She recognized early on that while doing their best was her classroom mantra, some needed additional support and help in recognizing their full potential. Her involvement with NDI New Mexico continues to embrace that feeling and her concern for the youth of New Mexico and the need to support and enhance their own self-esteem and a future of opportunity. Chuck is a steadfast partner with Barbara and her involvement with T NDI New Mexico. They are firm believers that we all need to work together for the future of this incredible community. ■

NDI New Mexico The possibiliTies are endless. Silver Sneakers Society

Most of us are unaware that a transformative gift involves adjusting a few simple lines of text in our estate plan. Known as a bequest, these “planned” or “legacy” gifts can trigger a staggering increase in the number of lives affected by your favorite charity. And who better to change lives than NDI New Mexico?

Beyond their venerable impact, some planned gifts also provide enormous tax benefits which can be realized immediately, while other types provide a lifelong stream of income for you and your loved ones.

NDI New Mexico celebrates planned giving donors by welcoming them into its most exclusive giving circle: the Silver Sneakers Society. Featuring intimate gatherings in the homes of lead supporters, its members are treated to engaging presentations and riveting private performances.

To become a member, contact Russell Baker at 505-983-7646 x 109.

Thank you Silver Sneakers Society Members

spotlight ON BETH & STEVE MOISE As Board Chair, Beth Moise leads NDI New Mexico at a unique time in our history – our 20th anniversary as a statewide organization. “I felt it was important to emphasize our 20th anniversary and use this milestone to celebrate our incredible history of impact and success,” Beth says. “This anniversary provides the perfect opportunity to share our story with a broader audience and to shine the spotlight on our wonderful family of donors.” Beth and her husband Steve have been active with NDI New Mexico since 2002. They were first introduced to the organization by Emeritus Board members Cindy Johns and Dianne Chalmers. After seeing the program in action at the Johns’ home, they jumped into action, personally supporting the program and sharing its work with their circle of friends. Beth joined the board in 2008, shortly after NDI New Mexico secured the lease for The Hiland Theater and amidst preparations for a capital campaign and major growth in Albuquerque. Coincidentally, it was also the same year Russell Baker became Executive Director. Beth’s background in organizational strategy, development, and executive coaching has proven to be a winning mix. Groups like our Albuquerque Managing Council and Governance Committee have benefited from her expertise. Due in no small part to Beth’s influence, our Board has developed into a dynamic group of leaders that represent both Santa Fe and Albuquerque and utilize best practices. As part of the 20th anniversary, Beth and the Board set an aggressive goal of fully funding 20 NDI-NM classes around the state, and recruiting 20 new members to our Silver Sneakers Legacy Society to ensure a bright future for NDI New Mexico.

Beth and Steve never hesitate to welcome friends of NDI-NM into their home for cultivation events and board appreciation dinners. Their passion for NDI New Mexico ClassiC Party rentals • 8615 Alameda Park NE, Albuquerque, NM 87113 • Phone: 505.344.9907 is clear – “Students’ enthusiasm for the program and for the instructors tells the story best; children have the opportunity to shine in NDI-NM, which is worth every www.ClassicPartyRentals.com • Classic Party Rentals Albuquerque bit of time and resources Steve and I invest.” Our thanks to Beth and Steve for their leadership, which helps ensure excellence and success for the next 20 years! ■ 20 years and growing Congratulations NDI New Mexico!
