WELCOME! How do you experience the arts? According to researcher Alan S. Brown and the University of Pennsylvania s Social Impact of the Arts Project, there are five modes of arts participation.

Perhaps you curate your own art experience by, for example, purchasing art for your home or designing your own art-filled night out.

2 WELCOME! How do you experience the arts? According to researcher Alan S. Brown and the University of Pennsylvania s Social Impact of the Arts Project, there are five modes of arts participation. Are you inventive and create your own art, as in painting or writing? Are you interpretive, participating in creative acts of self-expression based on the art of others, such as by acting or singing? Perhaps you curate your own art experience by, for example, purchasing art for your home or designing your own art-filled night out. Or maybe you re simply an observer of art, taking it in wherever and whenever you come upon it. Think you don t participate in art? Not so fast! Even if you don t know it, you re participating art every day because art is all around us it s called ambient participation. This season at Place des Arts, you can engage in all modes of arts participation. In our inventive faculty concert L Inspiration: French Classics by Request, you can curate the concert playlist by choosing which scores the musicians perform in our online survey (see page 6 for details). Our new party@pda events crank up the adult fun! Come and create and interpret art while enjoying food and drink in the company of your friends or even your dog! (Check out PAWcasso on page 7.) Our popular Family Day at PdA is back, with six opportunities to be observational, inventive and interpretive as a family, and through two Just for Teens activities, year olds can come together to invent, interpret, curate and observe art!

French Classics by Request Saturday, April 21, 7:30pm featuring Geeta Das, Stefan Nazarevich & Barry Tan At the turn of the 20th Century, France was the epicentre for musical innovation as artists sought to break away from the time-honoured traditions of the past. In this pursuit, composers discovered sounds that had never before been heard; Debussy went so far as to arrange the piano works of Satie for orchestra. Through a similar process, Geeta, Stefan and Barry will present new and unique arrangements of the favourite French music that you choose through our survey process. For an added delight, the trio will premiere a new piece by Stefan Nazarevich himself. To vote (1 piece/set) please fill out the survey at between Sep 1 & Nov 19!
