Kaye Walter, Ph.D. President, Bergen Community College “Art is the window to man's soul. Without it, he would never be able to see beyond his immediate world; nor could the world see the man within.” Former First Lady Claudia “Lady Bird” Johnson Welcome to Bergen Community College. Each year we help students gain new insights into themselves and the world around them through the arts. We are very proud of our cultural, theater, arts, and music programs at Bergen. We bring Pulitzer Prizewinning authors, professional musicians and entertainers, and regionally known artists to the campus. In fact, I am very pleased that the Anna Maria Ciccone Theatre will host the Dance Theatre of Harlem and you and students from your school are welcome to come and see them perform as part of the Ciccone Theatre Educational Initiative. This program brings together outstanding performing artists with focused educational programs to primary, middle and high school students throughout Bergen County. Student actors and artists also have many opportunities to perform at Bergen. The Theatre Program at Bergen Community College offers a wide range of performance, technical, and general education courses from beginning to advanced level. The professors, directors, choreographers, designers and technical staff members at Bergen are experienced, working professionals in their fields. The Theatre Department offers a rich and varied environment for artistic challenge and growth. Small, interactive classes allow for individualized attention and are a forte of the College’s performing arts experience. Whether you choose to continue your studies after Bergen or go directly into the entertainment field, your experience at the College will give you the valuable foundation you need for a life in the theatre. The Visual Arts Department provides students with instruction, experience and encouragement in the practice of visual art and the study of the history of art and visual culture. Our courses of study impart current information and techniques and promote the development of students’ thinking about art, media, and culture. Facilities include state of the art studios for computer animation, computer graphics, drawing/painting, digital and darkroom photography and an art gallery. Whichever of the arts is a window to your soul, I urge you to consider Bergen Community College. Teen Arts Festival Mission and Thanks A celebration of the alliance of young people and the arts, the 2013 Teen Arts Festival is founded on the belief that the arts are an indispensable expression of self and an essential language. Through workshops in all the arts disciplines, the Festival strives to engage each student in a deeper level of artistry and professionalism. Through critiqued performances and exhibits, the Festival showcases the myriad and extraordinary talents of middle and high school students and their teachers. A prime benefit of the Festival is the opportunity it provides students to validate themselves as artists by spending a day in the company of professional artists who participate in creative fields at many different levels. Offering further enrichment, the Visual Arts Committee presents a refreshing symposium on creativity for teachers during the Festival. The Division applauds the outstanding artists, teachers, critiquers and moderators who lend their professional artistry to the festival by leading workshops, critiquing the performances and art exhibit, and maintaining a smooth flow of events at the performing sites. Without the spirited contributions of these remarkable people, the Festival would not be possible, nor would its lasting effect on our teenagers be so profound. We thank the many volunteers who donate their valuable time today at the festival. Their participation – giving necessary directions and keeping workshops and performance sites quiet and running on time – is instrumental to the reputation of the Bergen County Teen Arts Festival as an award-winning arts-in-education program. We hope that every volunteer will take some of their free time during the course of the day to enjoy the Festival by taking in a workshop, seeing a student performance, or viewing the outstanding art exhibit in the cafeteria of the Main Building. With over 4,000 students participating The Bergen County Teen Arts Festival is the largest, most comprehensive arts-in-education festival for teenagers in the state of New Jersey. Through the interaction of artists, students, teachers, and volunteers, the Festival helps the Division achieve its goal of encouraging and strengthening the creative abilities of young people and increasing their access to the arts. Thank you all!

An entire wall invites you to create your own poem, add a line to an ongoing collective poem, or write a poem inspired by a poem you found on the wall that day. You can write a line, a stanza, or a whole poem. You can write a quote from a favorite poem as inspiration for other poets. You can even illustrate a poem that has been written on the wall. Be sure to sign your work with your name and the school you attend. Visit early in the day and return later to see what has been added and to read feedback on your work. We will provide the blank mural and magic markers. The possibilities are endless! Come leave your mark on this exciting collaborative poetic work of art! Help us create a truly collaborative wall of poetry. The Poet’s Voice – Open Microphone. Bring your writing and proclaim it to the universe! Not a Slam; not Improv! Get your good stuff published – out in the open to an audience of your peers. Read your own work or select something from other great poets. A poetry library will be available for you to choose from. Come and share your writing with an appreciative audience, or just sit and listen to support your friends. Poetry On The Line – Pick a poem and hang yours up for picking if you want to. Brazil’s Northeast poets hang their poems from clotheslines out in the open market to be taken down and read or to be taken away if you like them enough. Come and visit our poetry clothesline. Take away a poem you like; leave one of your own. Clothespins provided. Will be monitored for content. James O’Rourke, a poet, published in print and on TV and radio, is a Geraldine R. Dodge Foundation Teacher/Poet and an experienced reader. He believes passionately that poetry is a primarily vocal art which needs a public airing so that its sound can add to its sense. 10 Creative Writing Workshops *** WORDS-WORK Judy Pal Session I: 9:45AM - 10:35AM Session II: 11:30 AM – 12:20 PM Session III: 12:45 PM - 1:35 PM Room L147 CREATIVE WRITING – FROM SONGS TO STORIES Virve Lane Session I: 8:45 AM - 9:35 AM Session II: 10:30 AM - 11:20 AM Session III: 12:30 PM - 1:20 PM Room: L142 Perhaps you are suffering from writer's block or maybe your lack of confidence has kept you from writing your first poem. To conquer whatever it is that is stifling you, this workshop could be your next portal into the writer's universe. Once you realize that you are surrounded by the words of poetry in your everyday life and that it is up to you to lay hold of and rearrange them according to your muse, happily, you end up mining for gold in the recesses of your imagination. This "hands on" experience invites you to interact with paper words that you have chosen randomly, rearranged repeatedly, and glued carefully to your "canvas." As a reward, your Words-Work can provide the framework for your next story or it might even inspire you to tap into your creative core. But hold on...you could end up surprising yourself with your first poem too! From Apocalyptica to Jimi Hendrix, jazz or classical, music inspires us, entangling our senses im complex reactionary patterns. Stream of consciousness writing clears the brain of thoughts which hinder a smooth flow of creativity. This workshop relies on your interpretation of different pieces of music as a springhead to a polished piece of prose narrative or simply a vivid reaction. Come, listen and write! The artist within will feel joy. Virve Lane received her B.A. in English Education from Rutgers College and her MA in English and Comparative Literatures from Montclair University. A chapter of her master’s thesis, “Otto Rank’s theories of Creativity Applied to the Lives of Three Artists” was published in “Art and Artist “ Magazine. Virve is an English Professor at Brookdale and Middlesex Community Colleges. She also teaches creative writing and, thus, is in tune with methods which inspire students to explore and expand their creative potentials. Judith Pal taught English and French in Bergen County for over 30 years and was honored as the 2007 Teacher of the Year in her school. She credits her many European travel experiences and her participation in the Dodge Foundation Spring and Fountain and the ATI workshops for enriching her career and helping to foster an appreciation of language in her students. She believes that the true meaning of poetry and creative prose extends beyond the conspicuous text into the blank spaces between the lines where the mind's eye can discern the underlying symbolic essence of the work. Virve has travelled extensively to four continents and has skydived. This workshop has been generously sponsored by Project IMPACT – An Arts In Education Resource www.ProjectImpact.org 11 Instrumental & Vocal Music Workshops *** THE SPONTANEOUS COMPOSITION JAM SESSION Ray Ippolito 10:00 AM-1:30 PM Continuous Showmobile BEAT MAKING AND BASS MUSIC PRODUCTION 101 Joro-Boro Session I: 10:00 AM-10:50 AM Session II: 11:30 AM-12:20 PM Session III: 1:15 PM-2:05 PM Room: T119 Year after year, this workshop draws over 1000 students to participate or just kick back and enjoy the sounds being created on stage under the direction of multi-talented Ray Ippolito. Drummers, horn, guitar and string players, rappers and singers alike share their talents and energy in this impromptu jam session. In this workshop we will cover the basics of music production and beat making using Ableton Live. It is intended to be an introductory session with emphasis on workflow - one of the most important aspects of music production. It will include a brief overview of club music beats and tempos and will focus on a particular track beginning with the selection and processing of the samples and instruments, building a beat, and concluding with the organization of the track structure. Highly recommended for those interested in EDM in general and particularly in crunk, dubstep, glitchhop, moombahton, trap, West Coast bass, etc. Due to the overwhelming turnout of bands over the years, we encourage all of you who wish to show what you and/or your band are made of by opening this “jam session” to preexisting groups of all styles: Metal, R&B, Rock, Latin, Hip-Hop, etc. You will be given the opportunity to play no more than 2 songs (max time 10 minutes) and will be required to bring any additional amplifiers/equipment your band will need. There will be a band sign up at the stage the day of the festival and it will be on a limited first come, first serve basis, so be sure to sign up early. Joro-Boro is a producer and DJ who promotes entoteck, glitch-folk and post-national bass. He is primarily interested in musical genres that circuit bend the archaic and the futuristic and that short circuit cultural flows. This aesthetic informs his work resulting in dirty hybrids of local musics: crunk cumbia, capoeira moombahcore, Balkan brass juke, etc. Ray Ippolito is a multi-instrumentalist who has had his hands full as a performer, composer, arranger, producer, musical director, industry clinician and educator for the past 15 years. A Musicians Institute honors graduate and Berklee College of Music alumnus, Ray has performed all over the world as well as such prestigious venues as Carnegie Hall, Symphony Space and Lincoln Center.

Covering rhythms from Latin America, Africa and the Mid-East, we will take the time to explore one popular rhythm from each of these places. An improvisation workshop with an emphasis on Jazz and Blues. This will be a “play” based clinic, which will involve lots of “call and response” exercises, learning a tune by ear, and how to communicate with your instrument. We will also explore how to “connect” with your audience. While playing these rhythms on hand drums we will go over the importance of groove, dynamics and tempo. We will then combine these world rhythms with contemporary dance grooves played on a drum-set. Listen, feel and learn how the different musical elements can be combined together in this interactive class. From beginner to advanced there will be something for everyone to learn. If you have any percussion instruments please bring them. A limited number of drums will be available.

Yes, the HARLEM SHAKE. Through the lens of hip-hop and creative writing, we will awaken the essence of every art form. During this writing and performance session, participants will cultivate their creativity with and beyond structure through cooperative games and exercises. We will free our flow of imagination, open up our minds and speed up our expression. We will write, speak, compose and improvise to nurture inspiration and empower innovation. The objective is to get as much student participation as possible from each individual school so they shine and win the "SPOTLIGHT" during the short Flash Mob/ Harlem Shake segment. Whether you have two participants or twenty, each school is asked to put together a 15 second Harlem Shake routine that represents their pride, creativity, and support for their school. These 15 second snippets will be put together by Master choreographer Ryan Holder into a synchronized 2 minute Flash mob routine. Srikala is an MC, DJ, music producer and percussionist. As a DJ, Srikala uses Ableton Live to perform his original music, improvising with live Indian percussion and ambient vocals. His projects incorporate hip hop, reggae, dubstep and kirtan to create conscious music for the mainstream. The best school would take advantage of this "15 sec wild form of expression" by using whatever their creative minds can imagine (that is also school appropriate)! We've all seen these videos of the Harlem Shake on the news or on our computers via YouTube, so familiarizing yourself with this trend should be easy and even fun. A master of abundance and joy, Srikala skateboards as life medicine. He is a sophisticated mrdanga player and enjoys teaching harmonium workshops. Srikala trained in audio engineering at the Institute of Audio Research in New York City, and has been playing percussion and leading kirtan for the last 8 years at yoga studios and temples all over the country. We will have a mass rehearsal so each school knows where and when to "bust their moves". The biggest, brightest, most creative school, will win the "SPOTLIGHT" slot and have a special segment dedicated to them. Lastly, we go viral with our Harlem Shake dance. Schools can vote online for who they thought was the best, but the true fun will be seeing those video views sky rocket to the MILLIONS!!! How many of you out there are part of an international YouTube trend? Now you will have that awesome chance. Srikala is a powerhouse of creativity, community mobilization and musical genius. Founder of Artist Ashram and Unitribe Productions, Srikala is relentlessly creating spaces for people to freely open their hearts in creative collaboration. His devotion permeates his work, and his musical creations are charting new territory in the world of mainstream conscious music. 15 Dance Workshops *** DANCE - THEATER FOSSE FOR US!
