SUMMARY:RAL Open Studio Time (sketch\, photography\, pottery...)
DESCRIPTION:“Want to take part in a RAL tradition? In 1949\, Howard Schroeder started the Open Studio Sketch Group to give artists an opportunity to gather once a week to sketch or paint live models\, an idea inspired by a group he had belonged to as an artist in New York City\, his birthplace. The group remains active today and is open to interested artists by reservation. The group meets in the Chambers Studio from 7pm – 9:30pm each Thursday.\n\n\nHOWARD SCHROEDER SKETCH GROUP\n\nTo receive the Sketch Group weekly invitation\, contact the Education Programs Director at 302-227-8408 x112.\n\nLearn more about all our open studios: https://www.rehobothartleague.org/education/open-studios/”\n\n\nIN FACT\, there are SEVERAL OPEN STUDIOS you may want to consider\n\n\n“The Rehoboth Art League offers a variety of Open Studios to those whose memberships with the league are current. These venues\, which currently include photography\, pottery\, painting and drawing\, and creative writing\, offer an open\, unstructured working environment for people to develop their creative process among their peers. No instruction is provided. Artists are asked to bring their own supplies and to work independently.” \nOPEN PRINT STUDIO\n“The Open Print Studio is the art league’s digital venue for fine art photographers\, as well as artists interested in making reproductions of their work. Monitored by trained members of the Coastal Camera Club\, the art league’s Print Studio allows photographers access to color correct\, edit\, and print images on a variety of fine photographic papers. Adjust your images on your home computer\, or have a studio monitor assist you in the lab prior to printing here. Members’ accessing the Print Studio are responsible for a nominal studio fee ($2 per hour) as well as the cost of any paper and materials purchased. Open Print Studio is available to RAL members and/or Coastal Camera Club members by appointment. Contact printstudio@coastalcameraclub.com for an appointment.” \n\n\nOPEN POTTERY STUDIO\n“The Rehoboth Art League’s well-developed Pottery Studio and School has everything you need to create ceramic art—from available wheels to a hand building room\, and from a wide selection of glazes to several kilns for firing work. There is a charge of $2.00 per hour (maximum of $10 per day) to participate. Clay is available for purchase and each bag purchased includes glazing and firing. Open Pottery Studio usually takes place on Monday\, Tuesday\, Thursday\, and Friday from 10am — 4pm and Sunday from noon — 4pm. Times may change if there is a class or workshop scheduled.

The goal of the FreeWrites is to provide a place and an opportunity for people to have fun with their writing\, to explore different genres\, and to do this in the company of other writing enthusiasts. Each FreeWrite is facilitated by a Rehoboth Beach Writers Guild member who has experience in teaching\, writing and/or leading such groups. Participants write prose\, songs\, poetry and fiction\, work on novels during free writes\, and start short stories. Writing prompts are often (but not always) designed to focus on a particular aspect of writing: the use of sensory details\, the necessity of strong verbs\, the craft of writing dialogue.”\n\n\nI take myself by surprise. Writing at a FreeWrite! is like throwing a surprise party for yourself.  You never know what is going to spill out on your computer screen.  Is an evil twin lurking in the machinery? Or is it my fingers that somehow acquire access to long forgotten memories\, buried dreams and nightmares? No matter how many times I ask myself\, Where did that come from\,  No matter how many times I think I should have run out of surprises by now–something unexpected jumps out from where it’s been lurking behind a load of unpacked boxes in the basement of my mind.  I didn’t know I knew that\, I think.”\n​—Sarah Barnett \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMORE LOCAL OPPORTUNITIES TO WRITE\nTraditional FreeWrites \n(visit the website for updates: FreeWrites)–and please note holiday dates when classes will not be held\nMondays \n8-10 a.m.\nRehoboth Beach Library (please use the back door).Carl Frey\, Joanne Sinsheimer\, and Tom Hoyer will alternate leading.

Take a look at the options that suit you.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPer the RBWG website\, here are some details to explain more and give dates/times.\n“FreeWrite is the name given to an informal gathering of writers of ALL skill levels who meet to practice their writing in a friendly and nurturing atmosphere. The goal of the FreeWrites is to provide a place and an opportunity for people to have fun with their writing\, to explore different genres\, and to do this in the company of other writing enthusiasts. Each FreeWrite is facilitated by a Rehoboth Beach Writers Guild member who has experience in teaching\, writing and/or leading such groups. Participants write prose\, songs\, poetry and fiction\, work on novels during free writes\, and start short stories. Writing prompts are often (but not always) designed to focus on a particular aspect of writing: the use of sensory details\, the necessity of strong verbs\, the craft of writing dialogue.”\n\n\nI take myself by surprise. Writing at a FreeWrite! is like throwing a surprise party for yourself.  You never know what is going to spill out on your computer screen.  Is an evil twin lurking in the machinery? Or is it my fingers that somehow acquire access to long forgotten memories\, buried dreams and nightmares? No matter how many times I ask myself\, Where did that come from\,  No matter how many times I think I should have run out of surprises by now–something unexpected jumps out from where it’s been lurking behind a load of unpacked boxes in the basement of my mind.  I didn’t know I knew that\, I think.”\n​—Sarah Barnett \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMORE LOCAL OPPORTUNITIES TO WRITE\nTraditional FreeWrites \n(visit the website for updates: FreeWrites)–and please note holiday dates when classes will not be held\nMondays \n8-10 a.m.\nRehoboth Beach Library (please use the back door).Carl Frey\, Joanne Sinsheimer\, and Tom Hoyer will alternate leading.

SUMMARY:The Gin Game by Second Street Players
DESCRIPTION:ABOUT THE SHOW…\n\n \nThe Gin Game\, a 1978 Pulitzer Prize winning powerhouse written by D.L. Coburn\, is a tragicomedy in two acts. Serving up equal portions of “laugh out loud” hilarity and gut-wrenching angst\, the show centers around a man and a woman who meet on the porch of a run down nursing home that’s seen better days.\n\n \nFeeling as though they don’t belong\, Weller and Fonsia form a bond over their mutual distaste for their current circumstances and their enjoyment of playing gin together. They find in one another intellectual companionship and perhaps a hint of something more.\n\n \nBut something goes awry. Weller becomes increasingly frustrated as Fonsia proceeds to win game after game. It soon becomes evident that this is not simply about a game of cards\, but a battle of wills. As their card playing becomes more volatile\, Weller and Fonsia spar relentlessly towards a stunning finale.\n\n\n\nPatrons should be advised that there is some strong language in this show.\nALL COPY and tix from the website: http://www.secondstreetplayers.com/aboutTheGinGame.html\n  \n

SUMMARY:Imani Winds\, Woodwind Quintet\, Coastal Concerts
DESCRIPTION:IMANI WINDS \nBrandon Patrick George\, flute \nToyin Spellman-Diaz\, oboe \nMark Dover\, clarinet \nKevin Newton\, French horn \nMonica Ellis\, bassoon \nCelebrating over 20 years of music making\, the twice Grammy nominated Imani Winds has led both a revolution and the evolution of the wind quintet through their dynamic playing\, adventurous programming\, imaginative collaborations and outreach endeavors that have inspired audiences of all ages and backgrounds. \nThe ensemble’s playlist embraces traditional chamber music repertoire\, and as a 21st century group\, Imani Winds is devoutly committed to expanding the wind quintet repertoire by commissioning music from new voices that reflect historical events and the times in which we currently live. \nPresent and future season performances include a Jessie Montgomery composition inspired by her great-grandfather’s migration from the American south to the north; and\, socially conscious music by Andy Akiho designed to be performed both on the concert stage and in front of immigrant detention centers throughout the country. \nImani Winds regularly performs in prominent international concert venues\, including Carnegie Hall\, Lincoln Center\, The Kennedy Center\, Walt Disney Hall and the Kimmel Center. Their touring schedule has taken them throughout the Asian continent\, Brazil\, Australia\, England\, New Zealand and across Europe. \nTheir national and international presence includes performances at chamber music series in Boston\, New York\, Washington D.C.\, San Francisco\, Philadelphia and Houston. Festival performances include Chamber Music Northwest\, Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival\, Ravinia Festival\, Chautauqua\, Banff Centre and Music from Angel Fire. \nImani Winds’ travels through the jazz world are highlighted by their association with saxophonist and composer Wayne Shorter\, woodwind artist and composer Paquito D’Rivera and pianist and composer Jason Moran. Their ambitious project\, “Josephine Baker: A Life of Le Jazz Hot!” featured chanteuse René Marie in performances that brought the house down in New York\, Pittsburgh\, San Francisco\, Los Angeles and St. Louis. \nImani Winds’ commitment to education runs deep. The group participates in residencies throughout the U.S.\, giving performances and master classes to thousands of students each year. Academic and institutional residencies include the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center\, Duke University\, University of Chicago\, Curtis Institute of Music\, University of Michigan\, Da Camera of Houston and numerous others across the country. \nThe ensemble launched its annual Imani Winds Chamber Music Festival in 2010\, bringing together young instrumentalists and composers from across North America and abroad for exploration and performance of the standard repertoire and newly composed chamber music. Festival participants also take part in workshops devoted to entrepreneurial and outreach opportunities\, with the goal of creating the complete musician and global citizen. \nIn 2021\, Imani Winds released their latest album\, Bruits on Bright Shiny Things Records which garnered the ensemble their second Grammy Award nomination. Grammophone states\, “the ensemble’s hot rapport churns with conviction throughout…” \nImani Winds has six albums on Koch International Classics and E1 Music\, including their Grammy Award nominated recording\, The Classical Underground. They have also recorded for Naxos and Blue Note and released Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring on Warner Classics. Their most recent recording\, Bruits\, has been receiving critical acclaim since its release on the Bright Shiny Things label in February 2021. \nImani Winds is regularly featured on all media platforms including NPR\, American Public Media\, the BBC\, SiriusXM\, The New York Times and the Wall Street Journal. \nIn 2016\, Imani Winds received their greatest accolade in their two decades of music making: a permanent presence in the classical music section of the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington D.C.
