Janet O’Riley and Christina Schultz came to educate us at the October 15th meeting of the Rotary Club of Dixie Sunrise on educational opportunities at Dixie State College. Wow, who knew so much was going on right here at our very own DSC?
Janet, Director of Community Education for DXC and Washing County School District has both BA and MS in Education and has been in her position for 15 years which has given her the opportunity to be involved in community education and after school programs. Christine Schultz is the Vice President of Institutional Advance at DSC which means she oversees fundraising, alumni relations, public relations/marketing and publications and cultural arts. The program today focused on two of her projects, a documentary film entitled “Return to Little Hollywood” a promotional documentary featuring the movie making heritage of heritage which is currently being used as a tool to bring production back to the area. And, DOCUTAH, the Southern Utah International Documentary Film Festival to be held in St. George and Kanab in September of 2010.
Moreover, these ladies came to announce the free artist seminary in Kanab on Nov. 14, 2009 featuring Eric Dowdle, artist, and Margaret Hunt, Executive Director of the Utah Arts Council.. This is fantastic opportunity for local artists to showcase their work and learn how to expand that showcase in Utah.
I could go on and on as the presentation also included expansion plans for Dixie State College, the Celebrity Concert Series and the Performance Series. However, a BLOG is meant to be a teaser for bigger things. So, let me suggest you get lots more detail on “The Business of Art’ and Dixie state college and the full offering of events at http://www.dixie.edu/. For more information on the Business of Art contact Janet at oriley@dixie.edu. You can register online at ce.dixie.edu.
