Jaime Shepard’s design was the winning artwork as Denato, Kala Dunning, and Professor Robert Clarke. Graphic design student’s creation selected to represent Irish festival Graphic design student Jaime Shepard was feeling pretty lucky last week when her design was selected from among 31 pieces to be the “theme graphic” for the 2007 Great American Irish Festival. Robert Clarke, Professor in MVCC’s Art Department, was approached by the Great American Irish Festival (GAIF) committee several weeks ago seeking help in creating a “theme graphic” that would be used on posters promoting the event along with appearing on the GAIF website, t-shirts, signage and banners displayed throughout the Mohawk Valley. Mr. Clarke challenged his Professional Practice in Graphic Design students to create a design that is dis- tinctive, creative, attention grabbing while having a feel for the event. That’s what Ms. Shepard achieved with her winning design. “I am very excited and pleased to have my design picked,” said Ms. Shepard, who is returning student. She graduated from Rome Free Acad- emy in 1998 and now resides in Barneveld.

The Proliferation of String Quartets in Canada 1991-2014
The Proliferation of String Quartets in Canada 1991-2014 by Min-Jeong Koh A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts Faculty of Music University of Toronto © Copyright by Min-Jeong Koh 2014 The Proliferation of String Quartets in Canada 1991-2014 Min-Jeong Koh Doctor of Musical Arts Faculty of Music University of Toronto 2014 Abstract This paper examines the proliferation of string quartets in Canada between 1991 and 2014. The year 1991 is a pivotal one: it was the end of a Golden Age of string quartet performance in Canada with the conclusion of the activities of the Orford, Vághy, and Purcell Quartets. It marked, also, the beginning of a New Golden Age of string quartet performance in Canada. Similar to their predecessors, the quartets of this new era have different levels of international success, but one could call it a New Golden Age from the sheer number of professional ensembles active in Canada from 1991 onward. The thesis begins with biographies of leading ensembles of this period: the Alcan, Arthur Leblanc, Claudel-Canimex, St. Lawrence, Lafayette, Penderecki, Molinari, Bozzini, Borealis, Tokai, Silverbirch, Cecilia, Afiara, and the New Orford Quartets. The fourth chapter researches the opportunities available to string quartets in Canada, including the Banff International String Quartet Competition. To supplement the biographies and to gain additional insight on the available resources, eight quartet players participated in interviews. Findings emphasize the need to create more support for Canadian musicians, including both professional ensembles and also young aspiring quartet ensembles, to stay in Canada.

2008 Annual Report
Annual Report Believing We Can 2008 Our Mission MISSION ARISE’s mission is to work with people of all abilities to create a fair and just community in which everyone can fully participate. BRIEF HISTORY One of New York State’s eight original Independent Living Centers, ARISE was founded in 1979 by advocates dedicated to the idea – which was revolutionary at the time – that people with disabilities should have equal rights. ARISE quickly grew to meet the demand for services, opening satellite offices in Onondaga, Oswego, and Madison Counties to support people with disabilities living in Central New York. In 1999, ARISE merged with Child and Family Service of Onondaga County – an agency that had provided social services to the community for more than 100 years – to become one of the leading agencies in Central New York that addresses the interests of people with all types of disabilities. Today ARISE has over 500 staff members who advocate for the interests of people with disabilities, and who work to deliver more than 40 different programs and services. 2 2008 BOARD OF DIRECTORS Our Message Tania Anderson, President Don Scholl, MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD PRESIDENT & EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR Vice President If there was one news story that captivated the national media in 2008, it was the presidential election. Mitch Mitchell, From early primaries and caucuses in Iowa and New Hampshire in the beginning of the year, to the Treasurer party conventions, and finally to election night in November, the campaigns and candidates dominated Agnes McCray, the news. Secretary At ARISE, we know that voting in elections is one of the most important ways a person can advocate Liat Ben-Moshe for himself or herself, and we encourage everyone to register and vote.
