Utah Cultural Events and Information

1) Join
the Utah Cultural Alliance on November 13th for Culture Bytes and "The
Power of Volunteers."

It seems like a no-brainer. Of course you know that a
successful volunteer program depends on making the right kind of match
-- one where both the volunteer and the organization gain something
without feeling frustrated or ignored.

But, have you taken the time lately to evaluate your
volunteer program" Do you ask your volunteers to simply stuff
envelopes or do you try to find ways to tailor your organizational
needs to their natural skill sets and talents" Are you looking for
ways to keep those "miracle" volunteers motivated and committed to
your mission"

If you found yourself answering "No," "I'm not sure," and
"Yes!" (or any combination of the three), please join Mary Cranney
from Utah Symphony & Opera, Mike Nordenstrom from the City
Library, and Marianne Zenger from Red Butte Gardens for an
enlightening discussion about volunteers at the next Culture
Bytes.

descend on Christmas Eve so save him from despair and remind him what
the world would have been like had he not been born - that he has
indeed had a wonderful life. A story with laughter and tears, this
dramatization celebrates the faith and the spirit of
Christmas.

The GAM Foundation's Jazz at the Sheraton series presents
Grammy-nominated vocalist, Tierney Sutton, Monday, November 19, 2007
at 7:30PM at the Sheraton City Centre.

In a world of overnight sensations, jazz vocalist Tierney
Sutton's success has come from the road less traveled. A
decision in the mid '90s to move to Southern California from her New
England home resulted in a decade-long collaboration with her current
band mates. A Wisconsin-born choir girl, unexposed to jazz until
college, Tierney eventually found the best of the best; collaborators
with their own impressive jazz pedigrees - from Natalie Cole to Diana
Krall, from Ray Charles to Randy Brecker, pianist Christian Jacob,
bassists Trey Henry and Kevin Axt, and drummer Ray Brinker. Ten
years and six critically acclaimed CDs later, Tierney and her band
demonstrate what collective consultation and dedicated teamwork can
achieve. Reviewers repeatedly say that audiences experience a rare and
powerful harmony, achieved by performers at the top of their
game.

Educated at the Berklee College of Music in Boston, Tierney
became a semi-finalist in the Thelonious Monk Jazz Vocal Competition
in 1998. Her first solo CD, introducing Tierney Sutton was released to
rave reviews and nominated for a 1999indie Award for Best Jazz Vocal
Album.

In March 2004, with the release of Dancing in the Dark, which
debuted in the Billboard Jazz top ten and remained on the charts for
over 15 weeks, Sutton completed one of the most critically acclaimed
and commercially successful runs in the history of New York's
legendary Oak Room. The packed houses at the Oak Room and the rave
reviews she received eventually led to her February 2005 Carnegie Hall
debut, soloing with the New York Pops. in December 2005,i'm With The
Band was nominated for a Grammy Award in the category of Best Jazz
Vocal Album, and Sutton won JazzWeek's Vocalist of the Year
Award.

Sutton is a versatile studio singer as well as premiere
entertainer. Her unique voice is also regularly featured in
commercials representing such organizations as BMW, Coca Cola, Dodge
and J.C. Penney. An active educator, she has taught in the Jazz
Studies Department at the University of Southern California, as well
as giving workshops and clinics throughout the world.

GAM Foundation is sponsored in part by the Zoo, Arts &
Parks Program.

6) The University of Utah Singers, A
Cappella Choir, and Alumni Singers will join with the University of
Utah Philharmonia to perform one of William Walton's most celebrated
works, "Belshazzar's Feast".

The story of Belshazzar's Feast, taken chiefly from the book
of Daniel in the Bible, begins with the Jews in exile in
Babylon. After a feast at which Belshazzar, the Babylonian king,
commits sacrilege by using the Jews' sacred vessels to praise the
heathen gods, he is miraculously killed, the kingdom falls, and the
Jews regain their freedom. The people celebrate their freedom, in a
joyous song of praise interrupted by a lament over the fall of a great
city. Dr. David Power will be the baritone soloist.

In addition, the choirs will perform "Antiphon" and "Jubilate
Deo" with Linda Margetts at the organ and the Utah Philharmonia will
play "Crown Imperial" a Coronation March.

7)
SLAC's New Play Sounding Series presents a reading of THE
RANT, a drama of race, fear and justice, by New York playwright Andrew
Case.

The Salt Lake Acting Company's New Play Sounding Series
presents a reading of THE RANT by Brooklyn playwright Andrew Case. The
reading will be held Monday, November 19th at 7:00pm and is free to
the public, thanks to the support of American Express and Salt Lake
County's Zoo, Arts, and Parks Program. There will be a discussion
immediately following the play. Playwright Case is unable to attend
due to prior commitments. Salt Lake actor, playwright and director
Paul Kiernan will direct the reading.

The cast will feature Toni Lynn Byrd, Alexandra Harbold,
Brien K. Jones and Peder Melhuse. Tracie Merrill will be Stage
Manager and Reader.

THE RANT by Andrew Case brings us into the complex world of
justice and race. Of cops, coverups and a jaundiced press. A
sixteen-year old autistic African-American boy is shot and killed by a
New York City policeman on his own porch. His mother (Toni Lynn Byrd)
insists it is murder. An investigator (Alexandra Harbold) for a
civilian board looking into police misconduct believes her and takes
her suspicions to a newspaper reporter (Peder Melhuse), who agrees to
run the woman's story. A white officer is accused of the shooting, and
his African-American partner (Brien K. Jones) is less than forthcoming
in his testimony. This wonderfully detailed and nuanced play leads us
through the dizzying maze of perception, racial bias and fear to
reveal just how elusive the truth can be.

ANDREW CASE (Playwright) Andrew Case's plays include PACIFIC
(produced at Steppenwolf Theatre), WIVES (produced at Theatre AUM in
Montgomery, Alabama), and HISTORIC TIMES (produced at the 78th Street
Theatre Lab, New York). Other work has been produced in San Diego,
Carmel-by-the-Sea, and the New York International Fringe Festival. He
was a playwriting fellow at the Manhattan Theatre Club, and has had
his work developed at MTC, Primary Stages, the Atlantic Theater, and
the Eugene O'Neill Center. His screenplays have won the Samuel Goldwyn
Award and been read at the Fifth Night series at the Nuyorican Poets
Cafe. Heis a member of the Lark Theatre, the Primary Stages New
American Writers Group, and the PEN America Center. THE RANT was
originally written in the Primary Stages New American Writers Group
and workshopped at PlayPenn this summer.

NOTE:

The New Play Sounding Series is free to the public, however,
audience members will receive a ticket as they enter the building at
SLAC, on a first come-first serve basis. The building will be open at
6:00pm for the 7:00pm reading.

10) Cause for
Collectibility

With the Utah quarter being
released into circulation this coming Friday, the staff and volunteers
of the Utah Commemorative Quarter Launch are preparing for the rush
by

Utah's
numismatists.

At the completion of the
official launch ceremony, approximately 11a.m., the exchange booths
operated by Zions Bank will open for business. Ceremony attendees will
be able to exchange $10 bills for $10 rolls of Utah quarters, with a
limit of two rolls per person. Additionally, collectible souvenirs are
available for purchase inside the Rio Grande

Depot including a
commemorative set of Utah Quarters. The Commemorative set will contain
two un-circulated quarters: one from the Denver Mint and a second from
the Philadelphia Mint - a coin difficult to obtain west of the
Mississippi. The sets cost $10, and there is a limit of 3 sets per
person.

Starting the following Monday,
November 12, a three-piece lapel pin set will be available for
purchase off of the Utah Arts Council website. The pin set features a
representation of the Utah quarter, flanked by two smaller versions of
the snowboarder and beehive designs. The cost of the lapel pin set
will be $10. The proceeds of all souvenir sales benefit the Utah Arts
Council's Artist Endowment Fund.

The "Crossroads of the West"
concept for the Utah quarter underwent a rigorous vetting process
before being selected. The Utah Commemorative Quarter Commission
decided to gather input from the numismatic community on ensuring the
collectibility of the quarter concepts. To aid the selection process,
a set of criteria was developed that would lead to a concept that was
unique - unlike any other state quarter - specific to

Utah - and which would age
well as the quarter was passed in circulation. The resulting design
has already generated interest within the national numismatic
community.

"Little did we know we would
start receiving inquiries for the quarters and souvenirs weeks out and
from as far away as Boston," commented Margaret Hunt, Executive
Director of the Utah Arts Council. "It is what we hoped would happen.
We wanted to develop a quarter that would best represent the state,
and one that all Utahns could proudly stand behind, and which people
around the world - from members of the numismatic community to kids in
classrooms - would want to collect. The image on this quarter goes
beyond that. It brings together Utah's historical and train collecting
communities as well."

Former President of the
American Numismatic Association Robert Campbell commented how his
shop, All About Coins, has been fielding calls from private collectors
looking to purchase quarter memorabilia at significant prices.
Campbell explained that the selected design was being ideal for
collecting, "The trains coming together via the transcontinental
railroad, that industrial revolution, it placed Utah as the leader of
industry in America.this is the 19th Century equivalent of the man
landing on the moon."

For information on the
quarters, souvenirs, or the Utah Commemorative

Quarter Launch Ceremony, visit

12 Seldom Seen Minerva Teichert Paintings Donated to the BYU
Museum of Art

Recently, Walter G. Riedel, III, president and CEO of the
Nelda C. and H. J. Lutcher Stark Foundation, announced the donation of
12 murals painted by Rocky Mountain artist Minerva Teichert to the
Brigham Young University Museum of Art.

The ,
western-themed narrative works were collected by Orange, Texas native
H. J. Lutcher Stark between 1954 and 1961. These paintings hung in a
private residence owned by Stark and have not been seen by the public
for many years. The works are currently on long-term loan to the BYU
Museum of Art and will be given to the museum over a number of years.
Five of these murals are currently on view in the Museum of Art
exhibition "Minerva Teichert: Pageants in Paint," which runs through
May 26, 2008.

"We are thrilled to welcome these works into our collection,"
said BYU Museum of Art Director Campbell Gray. "The incredible
generosity of the Stark Foundation has enabled us to strengthen our
Teichert collection at a time when her work is becoming increasingly
recognized in art historical circles and more popular among
collectors."

Stark was an avid collector of contemporary Southwestern
painters and other important artists of the American West. His
collection grew to include works by the Taos Society of Artists,
George Catlin, Albert Bierstadt, Frederic Remington and C. M. Russell.
in 1961, Stark and his wife established the Nelda C. and H. J. Lutcher
Stark Foundation which seeks to improve the quality of life in
Southeast Texas by encouraging, promoting and assisting education, the
arts, and health and human services.

"We are very pleased that Minerva Teichert's paintings will
have a home in the region that inspired her work. We know that the BYU
Museum of Art will be an excellent steward for this collection,"
Riedel said.

According to Marian Wardle, Museum of Art curator of American
art, these works are an important addition to the museum's collection
because they represent a phase of Teichert's career that has not been
represented in the museum's holdings. The majority of the works in the
museum's collection were painted when Teichert was selling through her
Salt Lake City agent Alice Merrill Horne to a Utah-based audience who
were primarily members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day
Saints. The works in the Stark collection were painted after Horne's
death in 1948. After 1953, Teichert worked with a new agent, Edith
Murrell in Laramie, Wyo., who began to promote Teichert's work to
collectors outside of Utah, including Stark.

"Minerva Teichert painted many of her religious works while
she was selling through her agent Alice Merrill Horne. Even her
western works from that period depicted an LDS view of Native
Americans based on teachings in the Book of Mormon," Wardle said. "But
when she started selling her work through Edith Murrell, this new
audience expected a certain kind of Native American or western image -
the kind that was seen in the cinema."

Teichert's late paintings of the 1950s and 1960s clearly
demonstrate a cinematic influence, Wardle says. "Compared to
Teichert's more static works of the 1930s, these works display a
looser brushwork that represents increased action and calls up the
fast-moving images on the motion picture screen."

BYU began collecting Teichert works in the 1930s when the
university purchased a number of Teichert murals through Horne. Later,
Teichert struck a deal with the university to exchange paintings for
the tuition of family members in 1969, Teichert donated her Book of
Mormon murals to the university after trying to place them herself
following Horne's death. The Teichert family donated a number of
paintings from the Teichert family collection to the museum in 1997.
In 2000, the Museum of Art purchased a 9-piece mural painted in the
dinning room of Dr. Minnie Howard's home in Pocatello, Idaho in 1918
through 1920 with the financial assistance of Amy T. Barker. In 2001,
the museum purchased two western-themed paintings from the Stark
Foundation with funds provided by Barker. Not including the donation
from the Stark Foundation, the museum has 77 paintings and 58 drawings
in its Teichert collection.

Why Do We Fund What We

The Sydney Symphony receives nearly $9 million each year.
That is more funding than goes to all of Australia's visual artists,

all the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists, or all the
community art practitioners. My problem is not that we still fund
classical European culture, it's just that we fund so bloody much of
