EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR'S REPORT

MAY 2010

What an amazing 29th Annual Spring Dance Festival was produced for the first time on the stage of the Soper-Reese Theatre! Kudos to all involved and especially to Betty-Lou for her organization, dedication and tapping feet. The 20' x 40' tent, plus a few others for dressing rooms worked marvelously well and popped up again for an event at the Soper-Reese on Monday evening and will do so again on Saturday for the Lake County Chamber's Lip Sync. The tent isn't ideal in lieu of dressing rooms, but it does provide an opportunity for the Soper-Reese to host events not otherwise possible and maximize use of the Theatre.

Our Cultural Assessment of Lake County is going well and is providing information that we already surmized; that we are not reaching all areas of the county, nor the Hispanic or Native American population and minimally our young people. Although, Winter Music Fest, Spring Dance Festival and our Linda Carpenter Gallery help to bridge these gaps. Annie and I have a work plan/timeline with which we are working with the CA Arts Council and would appreciate your input.

I'd also like to recognize the Gallery Committee who is always ready to volunteer time and energy to all of our projects and have initiated a few of their own to have LCAC recognized and supported in the community.

Spring has indeed sprung, fast forwarded to Summer and on to a multitude of activities for LCAC, the Gallery and the Soper-Reese. Without you, our volunteers, none of it would be possible. You are the well-spring of energy that keeps this organization moving forward. Thank you.

With admiration and respect,

Shelby Posada

I believe that it is because of our strong base of volunteers that the Arts Council has been able to weather the shocks of the last few years. Thank you Bonnie Ewing for juggling the difficult task of making certain that the doors of the Main Street Gallery are open.
