A Trip to China

In about five hours I depart for China! Around 20 Pentucket Regional School District teachers and community members are traveling to Beijing, Xian and Shanghai for eight days. Aside from sightseeing, we will be visiting two schools. I hope to get a lot out of this trip. I purchased a new camera this morning and am also bringing my Flip video camera so hopefully I will be able to make an awesome slide show. We are supposed to bring a small gift to the two schools that we are going to. I am going to stop somewhere in Newburyport to get a poster and I also have a Pentucket Sachems hat to give.

So far the weather looks great. I took an extra luggage bag with me so that I will have space to bring home some musical instruments with me.

Lincoln Center-Aesthetic Education Five-Day Training

-Art Making-Questioning-Reflection-Contextual Information- A Week at Lincoln Center ... to perceive, a beholder must create his own experience.  And his creation must include relations comparable to those which the original producer underwent.  They are not the same in any literal sense.  But with the perceiver, as with the artist, there must be an ordering of the elements of the whole that is in form, although not in details, the same as the process of organization the creator of the work consciously experiences.  Without an act of recreation, the object is not perceived as a work of art.  The artist selected, simplified, clarified, abridged and condensed according to his interest.  The beholder must go through these operations according to his point of view and interest.  -John Dewey, Art as Experience This past July I was accepted into a one-week training at the Lincoln Center for Education in New York.  The majority of the what I ...
