| Friendship Dance Center Expands! |
|
Bennett School of Irish Dance |
| The Friendship Dance Center at 1946 S. Quebec St in Denver is set to expand by 50% with the conversion of 1948 S. Quebec into part of the complex. The directors of the company have accepted a bid from Miller Construction Specialties to convert the warehouse section of the unit to two new studios with spring floors topped with Rosco Performance flooring. There will be a 36 x 10-foot sound-attenuation accordion door between the larger studios in 1946 and 1948 so they can be opened up to form a larger studio area. | ||

Thanks to all of the grassroots advocates for your letters and calls to Congress and for attending Arts Advocacy Day. We're seeing the results! Next Steps: The FY 2010 Interior Appropriations bill will next go to full committee and then to the House floor for final consideration where your help may be needed to defend against floor amendments attempting to cut this increase. We must now put pressure on the Senate to match this funding level. Please take two minutes to visit the Americans for the Arts E-Advocacy Center to send a letter to your Members of Congress letting them know that the arts are important to you! Please help us continue this important work by becoming an official member of the Arts Action Fund. Play your part by joining the Arts Action Fund today -- it's free and simple. |

| Carson-Brierly Dance Library Interviews |
|
http://library.du.edu/about/staff/details.cfm?ID=154 |
|
Carson-Brierly Dance Library Interviews are now on the web. Beginning in January 2009 several of the Oral Histories from the Legends of Dance Collection have been processed for listening on Penrose Library’s catalog records. Included are Lillian Covillo and Dulcy Amter. These interviews are part of the plan to make more of the information in the Dance Library collection available on-line. Kate Crowe the Archival Processing Librarian at Penrose Library has been doing the work and it is the plan to complete these interviews as well as digitize other items in the collection. We are pleased to be able to offer these oral histories to the dance community, as they are a vital part of dance history in Colorado. |
