  • ARCHIVES Carl Milles, 1875-1955 Papers, 1917-2000
    ARCHIVES Carl Milles, 1875-1955 Papers, 1917-2000 (bulk, 1929-1945) 1 linear ft. Acquisition Number: 1989-13 Acquisition: Transferred to the Archives from the Cranbrook Academy of Art via transfer Jul-Aug 1989. Photocopied material and correspondence re the Aloe Plaza fountain commission was a gift of the Missouri Historical Society, St. Louis, Missouri, October 1987. Access: Access to the collection is unrestricted. Copyright: Copyright to this collection is held by the Cranbrook Educational Community. Preferred Citation: Carl Milles Papers, Cranbrook Archives, Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. Photographs: Moved to special photograph collection. Index: See end of finding aid. Processing: Gregg T. Trendowski, 1989. Collection was re-processed and finding aid updated by Jill Griffiths, July 2004. History Carl Emil Wilhelm Anderson was born 23 June 1875 at Orby in Lagga near Upsala, Sweden. He was the eldest son and second child of Lt. Emil (Mille, hence Milles’ adopted name) Anderson and his wife, Walborg Tissel. Milles lived at a boarding house in Stockholm while attending the Jacobskala (1885-1892). When he left school he was apprenticed to a cabinet maker/wood worker and attended night classes (1892-1897) in woodwork, and later in carving and modeling. After this period of work-study, he attended the technical school full time and was awarded a prize of 200 kroner from the Swedish Arts and Crafts Society. He then accepted a position to help manage a school of Swedish gymnastics in Santiago, Chile. However, upon reaching Paris on his way to Marseilles (en route) to South America he changed his plans. Milles remained in Paris until 1904, attempting to support himself with work jobbed out by master cabinetmakers, while continuing to teach himself modeling and trying to establish professional recognition as a sculptor.

  • Get Outside and Thrive
    GET OUTSIDE AND THRIVE THE MENTAL HEALTH BENEFITS OF SPENDING TIME OUTSIDE, NATURE AND MOVEMENT WHY DOES GETTING OUTSIDE MATTER? ¡ Researchers at Harvard Medical School have found that time spent in nature can drastically impact mental health ¡ Ecotherapy has shown a strong connection between time spent in nature and reduced stress, anxiety, and depression. ¡ Walking has been proven effective in reducing anxiety and depression, and there is further evidence that walking in nature improves those results even further. That’s because different parts of our brain activate in nature. Our mind calms, leading to physical changes including a reduction in heart rate and blood pressure and a drop is cortisol levels ¡ Nature Walks have been described as the easiest self help strategy available to support mental health. HOW MUCH TIME OUTSIDE IS NEEDED TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE? ¡ 20 minutes 3 times a week is enough to show a consistent reduction in stress as measured by cortisol levels. ¡ Any natural environment should help – the goal is to get away from the high stimulation levels of urban environments ¡ Find a time and space that works for you ¡ Consider making this a (safe) social time with family members or your support pod – evidence suggests the greatest mental health benefits come from group nature walks ¡ Any outdoor activity can help – a gentle walk, brisk hike, bike ride or run all help reduce stress levels ¡ Any green space will have a positive impact if “escape to the country” isn’t an option. WHERE CAN I GET OUTSIDE? ¡ For local walks our Lemon Road neighbourhoods are blessed with options – there are short and long trails along Pimmit Run at the back of the school property, multiple green spaces and parks in Pimmit Hills and behind the library and the High School allows walkers to use the trails around the school property and across the fields.

  • 14PL120 Alley Theatre FINAL.Pdf
    CITY OF HOUSTON Archaeological & Historical Commission Planning and Development Department PROTECTED LANDMARK DESIGNATION REPORT LANDMARK NAME: Alley Theatre AGENDA ITEM: C OWNER: Alley Theatre HPO FILE NO.: 14PL120 APPLICANT: Scott J. Atlas DATE ACCEPTED: Aug-21-2014 LOCATION: 615 Texas Avenue HAHC HEARING DATE: Sep-25-2014 SITE INFORMATION Lots 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8 & 12 & Tract 11, Block 60, SSBB, City of Houston, Harris County, Texas. TYPE OF APPROVAL REQUESTED: Protected Landmark Designation HISTORY AND SIGNIFICANCE SUMMARY The Alley Theatre was founded in 1947 by Nina Vance (1914-1980), one of the most outstanding theatrical directors in the U.S. and Texas in the mid twentieth century. The Alley is now one of the oldest non-profit, professional, resident theater companies in continuous operation in the United States. From its inception, the Alley Theatre staged productions in an “arena” or “in the round” spatial format, a practice associated with cutting-edge theatrical companies in the mid-twentieth-century period. In the Alley’s first season (1947-48), performances were held in a dance studio on Main Street. Audience members had to walk along a narrow outdoor passage to get to the performance space; this passage was the origin of the Alley’s name. In 1962, the Alley Theatre was given a half-block site in the 600 block of Texas Avenue by Houston Endowment and a $2 million grant from the Ford Foundation for a new building and operating expenses. The theater was to be part of a downtown performance and convention complex including Jones Hall, the home of the Houston Symphony, Houston Grand Opera, and Society for the Performing Arts.
