KENNEDY CENTER FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS; - FIRST TO PARTNER WITH EMBASSIES FOR ARTS-INTEGRATED LEARNING THROUGH THE EMBASSY ADOPTION PROGRAM; AND - FIRST TO EMBED RESIDENT ARTISTS IN LOCAL SCHOOLS THROUGH THE CAPITAL ARTS PARTNERSHIP; IN RECOGNITION OF WASHINGTON PERFORMING ARTS' VITAL ROLE IN THE DC CULTURAL LANDSCAPE, IT WAS AWARDED A 2012 NATIONAL MEDAL OF ARTS, MAKING IT THE FIRST ARTS PRESENTER OF ITS KIND TO BE SO HONORED. THE ORGANIZATION ALSO RECEIVED A 2012 MAYOR'S ARTS AWARD FOR EXCELLENCE IN SERVICE TO THE ARTS. IN 2015, ORGANIZATIONAL HONORS INCLUDED THE 2015 MAYOR'S ARTS AWARD FOR OUTSTANDING CONTRIBUTION TO ARTS EDUCATION. THIS IS THE MOST PRESTIGIOUS HONOR CONFERRED BY THE CITY ON ARTISTS, TEACHERS, NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS, AND PATRONS OF THE ARTS. ON THE NATIONAL STAGE, THE CAPITAL ARTS PARTNERSHIP PROGRAMS RECEIVED THE 2015 YALE DISTINGUISHED MUSIC EDUCATION PARTNERSHIP AWARD FROM THE YALE SCHOOL OF MUSIC. THE MARS URBAN ARTS INITIATIVE (MUAI) WAS CREATED TO CONTINUE TO EXPAND THE ORGANIZATION'S REACH AND PROMOTE A LIFE CYCLE OF ARTS ACCESS AND LEARNING ACROSS ALL AGE GROUPS. WITH SUBSTANTIAL MULTI-YEAR SUPPORT FROM MRS. JACQUELINE BADGER MARS AND MARS, INCORPORATED, IT LAUNCHED MUAI IN MAY 2014 TO CULTIVATE, SHOWCASE, AND CONNECT PERFORMING/VISUAL ARTISTS IN METRO DC TO EACH OTHER AND TO LOCAL RESIDENTS. THE MARS URBAN ARTS INITIATIVE (MUAI) IS A CREATIVE PLATFORM FOR WASHINGTON PERFORMING ARTS AND THE D.C. COMMUNITY TO CELEBRATE AND EMPOWER LOCAL ARTISTS THROUGH PERFORMANCES, UNIQUE EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS, AND INTERDISCIPLINARY GRASSROOTS COLLABORATIONS THAT SHOWCASE THE DIVERSITY AND VITALITY OF OUR CITY. D.C. HAS ALWAYS BEEN AN INCUBATOR FOR POWERFUL ARTISTIC VOICES WITH WORLDWIDE RESONANCE, FROM DUKE ELLINGTON AND TODD DUNCAN TO SHIRLEY HORN AND CHUCK BROWN. REFLECTIVE OF OUR FOUNDER PATRICK HAYES' MOTTO, "EVERYBODY IN, NOBODY OUT," THE MARS URBAN ARTS INITIATIVE AMPLIFIES THE ROLE OF LOCAL ARTISTS THROUGHOUT WASHINGTON PERFORMING ARTS' PRODUCTIONS, EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES, AND SPECIAL EVENTS. MUAI ALSO CURATES EDUCATIONAL WORKSHOPS, MASTER CLASSES, AND STUDENT PERFORMANCES THAT CONNECT LOCAL STUDENTS WITH DISTINGUISHED PERFORMERS, IN CONJUNCTION WITH OUR SIGNATURE EDUCATION PROGRAMS, SUCH AS THE CAPITAL ARTS PARTNERSHIP, EMBASSY ADOPTION PROGRAM, AND GOSPEL CHOIRS. THE MARS URBAN ARTS INITIATIVE IS ANCHORED BY RESIDENCIES FOR LEADING ARTISTS AND ENSEMBLES, CURATED PERFORMANCES ACROSS ALL EIGHT WARDS, AND ARTISTIC HAPPENINGS THAT REFLECT WHAT IT MEANS TO CALL D.C. HOME. WASHINGTON PERFORMING ARTS CAN ALSO BOAST EXPANSIVE COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT INITIATIVES. WITH SUBSTANTIAL SUPPORT BY THE ANDREW W. MELLON FOUNDATION, THE COLLABORATIVE AND HISTORIC THREE-YEAR ORCHESTRAL MUSIC FESTIVAL WITH THE JOHN F. KENNEDY CENTER, SHIFT: A FESTIVAL OF AMERICAN ORCHESTRAS, BEGAN IN MARCH 2017. THE INAUGURAL FESTIVAL PARTICIPANTS WERE THE ATLANTA SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA (ATLANTA, GA), BOULDER PHILHARMONIC (BOULDER, CO), THE KNIGHTS (BROOKLYN, NY), AND NORTH CAROLINA SYMPHONY (RALEIGH, NC). THE SECOND ITERATION OF THE FESTIVAL FEATURED FORT WORTH SYMPHONY (FORT WORTH, TEXAS), ALBANY SYMPHONY (ALBANY, NY), INDIANAPOLIS SYMPHONY (INDIANAPOLIS, IN) AND THE HOMETOWN NATIONAL SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA. DURING BOTH ITERATIONS, SHIFT INCLUDED A FULL SLATE OF FREE (OR LOW-COST) ARTS EDUCATION AND RESIDENCY ACTIVITIES ACROSS MULTIPLE METRO DC SITES. MOREOVER, IN PARTNERSHIP WITH 11TH STREET BRIDGE PARK, THE ORGANIZATION WAS AMONG JUST 38 RECIPIENTS AND THE ONLY ONES IN DC FROM A POOL OF NEARLY 1,300 TO RECEIVE A 2015 ARTPLACE AMERICA NATIONAL GRANTS PROGRAM AWARD FOR A CREATIVE PLACEMAKING INITIATIVE. FOR THIS INITIATIVE, WHICH BEGAN IN AUGUST 2015, IT HAS DEVELOPED, WITH RESIDENTS, COMMUNITY-BASED ARTS PROGRAMMING IN WARD 8 ANCHORED BY MARS URBAN ARTS AND EDUCATIONAL INITIATIVES. WASHINGTON PERFORMING ARTS CONTINUES TO EMBRACE THE ORGANIZATIONAL PHILOSOPHY ESPOUSED FROM THE BEGINNING BY FOUNDER, PATRICK HAYES: "EVERYBODY IN, NOBODY OUT!" TO THIS END, IT DESIGNS AND PRESENTS PROGRAMS INTENDED TO REACH THE WIDEST POSSIBLE CONSTITUENCIES IN THE GREATER DC REGION: PEOPLE OF ALL AGES, INCOME LEVELS, CULTURAL BACKGROUNDS, AND AREAS OF ARTISTIC INTEREST AND EXPERTISE. ANOTHER OF THE ORGANIZATION'S GUIDING PHILOSOPHIES IS "THE CITY IS OUR STAGE": AS OPPOSED TO OPERATING FROM ONE CENTRALIZED PERFORMANCE VENUE, WASHINGTON PERFORMING ARTS PRESENT CONCERTS, DANCE PERFORMANCES, AND MORE IN VENUES OF DIFFERENT SIZES AND SENSIBILITIES THROUGHOUT THE REGION-CONCERT HALLS, COLLEGIATE AUDITORIUMS, NIGHTCLUBS, CHURCHES AND SYNAGOGUES, OUTDOOR PLAZAS, AND MORE. THROUGH THIS EXPANSIVE APPROACH, EACH EVENT MARRIES ARTIST AND AUDIENCE, ART FORM AND COMMUNITY IN A CUSTOMIZED AND CULTURALLY ENRICHING EXPERIENCE. LASTLY, GIVEN THE COSMOPOLITAN NATURE OF THE DISTRICT AS THE NATION'S CAPITAL AND AS THE HOST CITY FOR DOZENS OF EMBASSIES AND CONSULATES, WASHINGTON PERFORMING ARTS EMBODIES A VISION OF "THE WORLD IN OUR CITY," DRAWING ON THE MANY DIVERSE INTERNATIONAL TRADITIONS OF OUR REGION'S RESIDENTS AND REGULARLY INVITING DISTINGUISHED ARTISTS AND OTHER VISITORS FROM AROUND THE WORLD TO SHARE IN ITS ONGOING CELEBRATION OF THE PERFORMING ARTS. |
