Ballet Arizona Presents
Mixed Repertory Ballet Arizona is thrilled to present this rapturous ballet by Twyla Tharp (most recently she choreographed the hit Broadway show Movin’ Out set to the music of Billy Joel). The Golden Section, created as the explosive finale of The Catherine Wheel, a collaborative piece by Twyla Tharp and David Byrne (of The Talking Heads), expresses the joy and fiery energy of a select group of individuals. About the choreographer: Twyla Tharp is a world renowned artist who has choreographed more than one hundred thirty-five dances, five Hollywood movies, directed and choreographed three Broadway shows, written two books and received one Tony Award, two Emmy Awards, and seventeen honorary doctorates, among many other awards and honors. Twyla Tharp on The Golden Section: "the dancers stormed the stage with a new, positive energy" and anything that wasn't sheer dancing "disappeared into a harmonious wash of light, costumes, music and movement." The scene was "an abstract arena of pure energy." Dressed in dancer/athlete get-ups of burnished golds, as if they were all Olympic champions, the seven male and six female dancers sail, soar, and tear through the air of the stage's golden, glowing light.” A ballet lover’s fantasy! Originally part of Jewels, a three-act full-length ballet, Rubies is a witty ballet, epitomizing the long-term artistic relationship between Igor Stravinsky and George Balanchine. Inspired by the work of jewelry designer Claude Arpels, Rubies reveals the spirit, color and fundamental nature of the jewel itself. This exciting ballet is a burst of dazzling red on stage, full of pure athleticism and passion that will stimulate the senses and quicken the pulse. About the choreographer: George Balanchine (1904-1983), a major artistic figure of the twentieth century, revolutionized the look of classical ballet.

Curves of Steel Throughout the 20th century, the automobile was revered in American culture; thus, many of the world’s greatest designers have worked in the field, creating and combining extreme beauty of line and the science of streamlining and aerodynamics. The Phoenix Art Museum is proud to organize and present the first exhibition in an art museum to explore the impact and influence of streamlining and aerodynamics on American and European automobile design in the 20th century. Curves of Steel: Streamlined Automobile Design, on view at Phoenix Art Museum April 1st – June 3rd, 2007, is an expression of cars and designs that changed the face and shape of the automobile. It features 22 of some of the rarest and most stunning cars ever to be presented in one show, many are the only existing examples of their kind. Assembled are such names as Auburn, Alfa Romeo, Lincoln-Zephyr, Hispano-Suiza, Bugatti, Delage and Delahaye – including the elusive 1937 Delahaye 145 “Million Franc Prize” Grand Prix winner. Streamlining is an expression of architecture and cultural design as a manifestation of aerodynamic science. The Phoenix Art Museum has assembled an array of some of the great chassis and designs that pioneered the science of airflow and aerodynamics. Some of North America’s most discerning collectors have opened their garage doors to share their prizes of automotive grace and form. From its earliest years, the automobile adopted the designs of the horse-drawn age. Gradually automotive design evolved and the engine moved forward. By the 1920s, European designers were beginning to adapt the science of airflow from aircraft to the automobile. At first these new designs were focused on experimental prototypes and speed record cars. In the 1930s, automobile culture exploded with art deco and streamline forms applied to the automobile. Streamline designs or influences were applied to luxury vehicles such as Auburn, Cord and Lincoln-Zephyr in the United States. General Motors used many streamline motifs, but was late to jump fully into the style, while Chrysler was an early proponent of aerodynamic design with the Airflow and the experimental Newport and Thunderbolt. In Europe, the French Bugatti Atlantic Coupe, and many coachbuilt Delage and Delahaye automobiles featured striking and modern designs influenced more by style than aerodynamic function. Other, often smaller, manufacturers were more concerned with function and used design to reduce aerodynamic drag and increase stability. Tatra found that a modestly-powered vehicle could attain and maintain relatively high speeds if it was shaped properly. Many of the same principles were also applied to William Stout’s exquisitely-detailed Scarabs. The vehicles comprising this exhibition are among the rarest collector cars in the world and come to Phoenix from across North America. Meticulously restored to their original elegance inside and out, their cultural content will be explored in the exhibition through additional drawings, photographs and posters. Phoenix Art Museum also will present a wide-ranging line-up of public programs and events surrounding the show. The exhibition is intended to be a total experience celebrating some of the finest automobile designs of the last century. The Book - A 192-page accompanying book is being published, guided and written by a select team of automotive historians, writers and designers, including Ken Gross, Beverly Rae Kimes, Richard Adatto, Jonathan A. Stein, Phil Patton and Geoff Wardel, with more than 200 color photographs by world renowned automotive photographer Michael Furman. It will be available for purchase in The Museum Store.

AS PARTNERS SEMINARS IT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE SO TOUGH – Strategies for Raising Teens – Grades 7-12 Relationships are everything. Happiness is a by-product of healthy relationships. When we are happy our life tends to expand; when we are unhappy our life tends to contract. As soon as you become unhappy with your teenager, you tend to stop doing things with him/her and start doing things to him/her. It's not necessary to do the same things with your teenager as you did with him/her as a pre-teen but it helps to talk, listen, and share on a different level with this more mature person.

FIRST ANNUAL LAURA’S RUN
FOR LUNG TRANSPLANT PATIENTS AND
FAMILIES “We are very excited to kick off the first annual Laura’s Run,” said Kristi Johnson, organizer and avid charity runner. “This will be an extraordinary event for all ages remembering the life of an amazing and strong woman, Laura Burdick while supporting a great cause." In addition to raising awareness and proceeds, Laura’s Run will celebrate the life of Laura Burdick who was a recipient of a lung transplant in 2003, but lost her courageous battle with life in 2005. Burdick’s friend, Kristi Johnson and Burdick's husband Jon Burdick serve as co-founders for the run, which they hope will continue for years to come educating and benefiting those who are touched by the lung transplant procedure in addition to sharing the importance of organ donation. After the race, Laura’s Run invites participants to kick off their running shoes and enjoy live music from local performers Todd and Ethan as well as complimentary food from leading sponsor Cactus City Catering. “We at the Laura Burdick Foundation wish to assist and educate families who are involved in organ transplantation,” said Jon Burdick, co-founder of the Laura Burdick Foundation and owner of Cactus City Catering. “Eventually it is our hope to fund housing for post operation patients and to provide education scholarships to individuals who reflect Laura’s strength.” Those who register for the run will receive a free First Annual Laura’s Run t-shirt and a chance to win many great raffle prizes for their $25 donation to participate. Prizes will also be awarded to top male and female runners in each age group. The course will consist of a 5K walk/run, and a kids dash. Participants can register for the run online at www.active.com or www.arizonarunningeventsco.com/laurasrun . On-site registration is also available at Cap Basin Sports Complex beginning at 8 a.m. on race day, which is located at 8081 E. Princess Dr., Scottsdale, Ariz. 85255 on the northeast corner of Bell and Hayden roads.

Free Online Summer Camp
Guide Lists Over 800 Camps in Its Fifth
Year Using the site’s built-in search engine, parents can easily locate a camp that matches their child’s age and interests. They will find day and overnight camps for children from pre-K to eighteen and listings for camps to satisfy almost any interest and need. More than 500 of the camps are in Arizona. They include such popular programs as Amare Stoudemire’s Basketball Camp, Girl Scout camps in four different locations, a variety of horse riding camps, theater, arts, academic, religious and special needs camps. The almost 300 California camp listings include a gifted program at UC-Berkeley, overnight camps in Yosemite and on Catalina Island, and a science camp in Malibu. Each year, the website receives high praise and numerous e-mails from relieved parents, many of whom use www.CampsAtoZ.com several times over the season. Now as www.CampsAtoZ.com begins its fifth full year of operation, it is listing more camps than ever. The idea for www.CampsAtoZ.comm originated with Julia James, President of Corfe Marketing Group who, having spent countless hours searching for summer activities for her own family, discovered that other parents faced the same situation. Determined to create an easy-to-use central source of camp information, she developed www.CampsAtoZ.com and introduced it in February 2003. “CampsAtoZ.com is a solution for every parent who needs to find fun and more positive activities to occupy their children during the summer,” she commented. Corfe Marketing Group, a woman-owned business, is a Scottsdale marketing consulting boutique. Owner Julia James has an MBA in marketing and over twenty years of experience in marketing.
