Museum at Eldridge Street 2013 Annual Report Photo: Brian Kutner Photo: Letter from the Chairman and Executive Director Museum at Eldridge Street 2013 Annual Report Photo: Brian Kutner Photo: LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN AND EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR we laid the groundwork for the Museum at Eldridge Street’s continued growth over the years to come. Planning took in 2013place for our new visitor center and permanent exhibition that opened in June 2014. Our educational programs for both young people and adults grew in popularity and depth of offerings. Our Lost and Found Music series presented classical Jewish musical traditions that are at risk of disappearing. All of this ensures that the Museum at Eldridge Street and the Eldridge Street Synagogue, our magnificent National Historic Landmark home, will continue to thrive well into the 21st century and beyond. This is an exciting time to be affiliated with Eldridge Street. With the restoration behind us, the Museum is staking its place within New York City’s and the nation’s architectural, cultural and historic landscape. As you will read in the report here, our landmark site—127 years old—is a place of cultural innovation. Critically acclaimed presentations of contemporary art, music and literature happen on a regular basis. New technologies, like our award-winning interactive displays, bring to life the story of this century-old synagogue for new generations. Along with our docents, university students immerse themselves in the history of our site and, in turn, retell its story through the tours they lead, the social media items they post, and the programs they help plan. And while the historic sanctuary has been meticulously restored, it is also home to an Sorel Leo Photos: absolutely stunning work of contemporary art, the stained-glass window by Kiki Smith and Deborah Gans. Visitors young and old, from all faiths and cultural backgrounds, tell us how moved they are to discover the beauty of our landmark home and the wealth of tours, classes, concerts, exhibits, family events and school programs happening here. With your support, we are well poised to continue both the preservation and the transformation of our landmark site. The restoration of the Eldridge Street Synagogue was conducted with “rigor and affection” in the words of New Yorker architectural critic Paul Goldberger. But it is the people who support and sustain, visit and engage with the Museum at Eldridge Street, who make the building come alive. You are part of that community and we thank you for all you have done to rescue and revitalize this American Jewish landmark. Michael Weinstein Chairman Bonnie Dimun Executive Director “Thank you for the most magical book launch I could imagine. I truly felt connected with the deep Jewish history and reverence contained in the sanctuary. I was proud to stand there and talk about my ancestors 2013 and our shared Jewish history.” — Writer David Laskin highlights • 7,000 school-age children from more than 275 classes learned about Jewish culture and holidays, immigrant history and architecture. • More than 4,500 people participated in 65-plus cultural programs, including concerts, lectures, book talks, classes, and walking tours. • Our monthly Preservation Detectives program was voted “Best Family Tour” by Time Out New York and grew by 30%. • Our expanded Morris Kaplan Scholar in Residence and adult education program continued a long tradition of Jewish learning at our landmark site. • More than 8,500 people celebrated Jewish and Chinese culture and community at our 13th annual Egg Rolls and Egg Creams Festival. • Attendance for our Free Mondays continued to grow, with more than 4,750 people taking advantage of this program and other free Museum events. • Our social media community grew by more than 35% with 2,250 Facebook friends and 1,000 Twitter followers.

  • American Actress/Singer, Helen Hayes Award Nominee, and Recording Artist Mary Millben Has Been One of Oklahoma’S Best Kept Secrets – Until Now
    American Actress/Singer, Helen Hayes Award Nominee, and recording artist Mary Millben has been one of Oklahoma’s best kept secrets – until now. For Mary, singing in church started it all. Referred to as a "Songbird,’ at a young age, Mary quickly overcame stage fright when repeatedly called on to sing in church by her mother – now a retired Pentecostal, music pastor and former classical soprano. Thanks to her mother, who raised Mary and her siblings as a divorced single parent, it was just a matter of time before this preacher's kid would go from the plains of the Midwest to the stages of the world. Through high school and college, Mary proudly represented the state of Oklahoma in public arenas as a young leader - thrust in front of U.S. Presidents, world figures and corporate America as a voice for those underrepresented. Mary was the presidential runner-up at the American Legion Auxiliary 1999 Girls Nation, gubernatorial runner-up at Oklahoma Girls State, and the Oklahoma delegate at the 1998 Hugh O’Brian Youth Leadership (HOBY) World Congress in Washington, D.C. In college, Mary was elected the second African- American female Student Body President and the first African-American female Vice- President at the University of Oklahoma (OU) – governing 30,000 students. While serving in student leadership, Mary was a featured singer for University dinners and private events hosted by former Oklahoma U.S. Senator, Governor and former President of OU, David L. Boren. As a professional student, Mary served the state of Oklahoma at the Oklahoma State Department of Education, Crowe & Dunlevy Law Firm, and later Press Secretary & Director of Communications for the Oklahoma Republican Party under former Chairman Gary Jones.

  • Honor Roll of Donors
    Children’s Hospital Los Angeles HONOR ROLL OF DONORS For the time period of July 1, 2015, through June 30, 2016 At the turn of the 20th century, a group of caring individuals recognized that the city of Los Angeles lacked a hospital equipped to care for children—and so began Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. Founded in 1901, the hospital was created with the strength and resolve of its founding members—a legacy that continues on through a generous community of supporters and philanthropic partners. More than a century later, Children’s Hospital Los Angeles is proudly recognized as a worldwide leader in pediatric and adolescent health. Through expert clinical care, research and medical education, Children’s Hospital continues to create hope and build healthier futures for children and families in our community and beyond. Generous individuals, organizations and foundations have played an instrumental role in our efforts to give children the opportunity to lead healthy and happy lives. Philanthropy has supported the important work performed by our physicians, nurses and caregivers; accelerated leading-edge research to unearth innovative new therapies; and educated and trained the next generation of pediatric experts. Our extraordinary donors make all of this possible, and we are honored to acknowledge them for their generosity during fiscal year 2016. This Honor Roll recognizes donors for contributions of $1,000 or more, as well as the full value of any active pledge commitments made in prior fiscal years. We are also proud to honor those who have contributed gifts of $150 to $999 on the Red Wagon Society Honor Roll of Donors, viewable at CHLA.org/HonorRoll.

  • Tradition and Innovation in Brazilian Popular Music: Keyboard Percussion Instruments in Choro
    Tradition and Innovation in Brazilian Popular Music: Keyboard Percussion Instruments in Choro by Mark James Duggan A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts Faculty of Music University of Toronto © Copyright by Mark James Duggan 2011 Tradition and Innovation in Brazilian Popular Music: Keyboard Percussion Instruments in Choro Mark James Duggan Doctor of Musical Arts Faculty of Music University of Toronto 2011 Abstract The use of keyboard percussion instruments in choro, one of the earliest forms of Brazilian popular music, is a relatively recent phenomenon and its expansion into university music programs and relocation from small clubs and private homes to concert halls has changed the way that choro is learned and performed. For many Brazilians, this kind of innovation in a “traditional” genre represents a challenge to their notion of a Brazilian cultural identity. This study examines the dynamic relationship that Brazilians have with representations of their culture, especially in the area of popular music, through an in depth discussion of the use of keyboard percussion instruments within the genre of choro. I discuss the implications of using keyboard percussion in choro with a detailed description of its contemporary practice and a critical examination of the sociological and academic issues that surround choro historically and as practiced today. This includes an historical overview of choro and organology of keyboard percussion instruments in Brazil. I discuss multiple perspectives on the genre including a ii consideration of choro as part of the “world music” movement and choro’s ambiguous relationship to jazz. Through an examination of the typical instrumentation and performance conventions used in choro, I address the meanings and implications of the adaptation of those practices and of the various instrumental roles found in choro to keyboard percussion instruments.
