Choosing the right activity for your child is an important decision and will impact what adults your child interacts with, learns from and looks up to. Whether it’s sports, music, art, or dance, the activity should not only engage your child’s interests but also contribute positively to their overall development. At Red Door Dance Academy, we understand the significance of this decision, and our core values reflect what we believe to be the most important factors parents should consider when selecting an activity for their child.

Audience Development: Evolving American Orchestras As we celebrate the rich tapestry of American orchestras today, it's crucial to reflect on their journey from European-rooted ensembles to the culturally and community focused institutions we strive for. The 19th-century American orchestral scene was a battleground for identity, with European-trained maestros shaping our musical heritage amidst crises and cultural clashes. The 1800s were pivotal, birthing renowned schools like the Peabody Conservatory (1865), Oberlin School of Music (1867), and New England Conservatory (1870) to cultivate homegrown talent. Yet, this era also faced an "orchestra crisis," grappling with elitist perceptions and a struggle to resonate with the American public. Fast forward to strategies of financial sustainability: a model that leaned heavily on philanthropy, inadvertently widening the gap between the upper class and lower socioeconomic audiences. This historical blueprint set a precedent, but also a challenge for modern audience development. As professionals in the arts, we must confront this legacy, understanding the nuances between philanthropy and equitable access. It's not just about survival; it's about reshaping orchestras to be truly inclusive and reflective of all communities. We stand at a crossroads: acknowledge the past, challenge the status quo, and innovate—or risk obsolescence. (And this is applicable to other organizations across the #ArtsSector) Challenging? Yes. Impossible? No. Respectfully, Dr. Roque Diaz Interested in learning more about #DEI? Follow me. #OrchestraInclusion #AudienceDevelopment #ArtsPhilanthropy #History #Orchestras

“Slow down, you move too fast”— a summer anthem. ⚫️Why do we grow programming before infrastructure? Or funding? ⚫️How come our big ideas are easier to come by than the culture required to ground it? ⚫️Why do we expand more naturally than we contract? (Boards too!) Spend some time journaling. Listen to music. Get your reflective groove on. Reflection. Intention. Strategy. Action. It’s a cycle. It’s a marathon. It’s not a sprint. Endurance matters. Slow down, you’re moving to fast. No need to bypass the moment. Make it last. https://lnkd.in/g4rR6xbh

I just love the mission of this sponsoring organization, A Tribe for Jazz. They are doing some deeply interdisciplinary work telling the story of jazz as a public good. This panel discussion--Hear Me Out: Democracy, Jazz, and Education-- brought together leaders in jazz advocacy and left me reflecting on what it means to "be the change" first as a human, second as a artist/academic/teacher/advocate.

How are beauty, truth and goodness fundamentally linked to the universal values of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness? Daniel Asia, president of The Center for American Culture and Ideas, sat down with us to share how they promote American intellectual engagement. He explains, “We also believe that all politics is downstream of culture. If you do not understand the arts, you will not understand the relationship between culture and politics. People who are elevated by the arts will come to politics with a different sensibility than those who are not. Most importantly, it gives more and greater meaning to their lives.” https://bit.ly/3OBHpJY

Absolutely and has been a tactic employed by .gov to starve the creative arts education at FE resulting in reduced progression to HE. It then gives them the negative data to argue creative arts education is declining when actually it is not, it has increased in vocational education and this was not their plan. Might be why the increase and success data is not included in the information they publish. It is also a shame they are not interested in listening to the positive impacts of creative arts education on mental health and wellbeing dispute the fact creative education and people who adopt creative processes in most industries are more successful and help overcome problems by applying creative solutions. It is not just about playing an instrument or painting a picture, it is about expression and developing confidence. #musiceducationmatters
'If we are serious about the creative industries generating growth, we need joined up thinking across government' In an op-ed on the state of arts education for Arts Professional, Deborah Annetts urges government departments to work together to stop its decline 👇 https://loom.ly/HOxnBhg

NEW EPISODE! In our fascination with #STEM education, are we losing something vital by squeezing out the arts. It is precisely in its rich and diverse #aliveness perhaps that music, and other arts, hold so much possibility. Check out this week's conversation with the incredible Eric Dozier! With a couple of stunning songs performed by Eric too! Eric and Tim talk about: 🎵 How does music connect us with ourselves? 🎶 How does music connect us with each other, and build community? 🎵 How does music offer other ways of knowing and transferring cultural knowledge? 🎶 How do black and indigenous cultural ways of knowing get marginalised by white supremacy culture? 🎵 What does it mean for a teacher (like a choirleader) to hold space for transformation?
