Entertainment - Smoky Hill River Festival
2010
Smoky Hill River Festival
June 10-13
Oakdale Park – Salina, Kansas
Festival Mission:
To celebrate the arts and this community
through a festival happening that is
accessible to anyone – physically,
psychologically, and economically.
Greetings from the
City of Salina
On behalf of the City of Salina, welcome
to the 34th annual Smoky Hill River
Festival!
For years now, the Festival has marked
the unofficial start to summer fun
in Salina! As a leader in arts and
entertainment in Kansas, our community
places a high value on the cultural
experiences enjoyed right here in
Oakdale Park. Just off the banks of the
Smoky Hill River, you will find first
class musicians, artists, sculptors, and
craftsmen with talents and offerings that
enrich us each summer.
As you stroll through the arts and crafts,
or sit down to enjoy some music, be sure
to treat your taste buds to the culinary
delights of the Festival as well. From
traditional fare to exotic, eating great food
is part of the experience!
Here in Salina, arts and culture enhances
our quality of life, and brings about a
multi-million dollar economic value. Let
the sights, sounds, and flavors of the
Festival foster your own appreciation
for the arts. Take time to enjoy these
early summer days with your friends and
family, and make the Smoky Hill River
Festival an annual tradition!
Aaron Peck
Mayor
Welcome!
It is my privilege to welcome you to the
34th annual Smoky Hill River Festival!
We have so many exciting offerings
for you—including four pre-festival
installations in the downtown area (see
program back cover) underwritten
by direct grants from the National
Endowment for the Arts; and a dozen
concerts/workshops with the Grammy
winning artists of Trio Globo in Wichita,
McPherson, Lucas, and Junction City—
all extending Festival beyond Oakdale Park.
And oh boy, this wonderful Festival
does extend beyond Oakdale Park
and beyond the second weekend in
June. Often, Festival artists are here for
extended periods of time; or they return
to engage the community through one of
Salina’s wonderful cultural organizations
or with school children through the
Arts & Humanities Department’s
nationally recognized arts-in-education
program. To help us extend the creative
festival spirit all summer to children in
Salina’s neighborhoods, this year we
are launching Arts & Humanities’ new
Mobile Arts Van, “Arty”. Please look
for the colorful arts van in the park this
weekend.
My heartfelt thanks to the wonderful
staff and 2000 volunteers who make this
event possible each year. Last, but never
least, to you! Thank you for joining us!

The Sometime Favorites
The Steel Wheels
Harrisonburg, VA
The Steel Wheels are truly an Americana band,
rooted in musical styles that explore the territories
between blues and bluegrass, old-time sing-alongs
and foot-stompin’ fiddle tunes. They are subtle
innovators who respect the past but whistle their
own tunes, layering in rich textures and decidedly
modern energy to forge a new sound

wonders in a wide-ranging original program drawn

blues. With Howard Levy playing harmonica and
piano, cellist Eugene Friesen, and Glen Velez
on drums and percussion, the artists have each
achieved acclaim as soloists and composers.

visits to Brazil, Venezuela, England, Italy, Australia
and South Africa. Vincelli is the 1998 recipient
of the Scott Joplin Award for achievement and the
2000 Hall of Fame winner at the Clearwater Jazz

South of Bravo Salina! Stage
Catch You on the Flipside
Emotions and images, nostalgia and memories
of Festivals past are translated in a contemporary
kinetic photo montage. You might discover a
familiar expression in this interactive installation
by artists Ann Arkebauer, Salina and her sons Chris
Wilson, Kansas City and Adam Wilson, Lawrence.
West of Bicentennial Center Bridge
Distance, Direction, Event
(Phase I, 2009) Salina’s remarkable cultural
organizations are celebrated in a two-phase
installation in this system of iconic weathervanes
created by Wichita artist Elizabeth Stevenson. Look
UP for the RED ARROWS throughout the Festival
landscape. Each piece indicates the direction and
distance from their location within the Festival to
the actual locale of the organization.
“Circuit Diagrams” – (Phase II, 2010, page 40)
2010 Phase II, the weathervanes will allow each
viewer to become an allegorical conduit for
the energy and he or she effectively becomes a
battery cell, or energy storage receptacle. When
the visitor then finds their way from Oakdale
Park to the corresponding cultural organization,
he or she completes the “circuit” by discharging
the energy into the Phase II device, in his or her
interaction with the terminals there. This buildingcentric event thus closes the original system, while
simultaneously instigating a new force; in due
course, registered by one of the weathervanes.
The entire installation functions as an extension of
Stevenson’s work The Girl Who Lived in a Sign, a
whimsical and thoughtful story about place, energy,
and life.
Dream Catchers
Art instructors Ann Zerger and Dee ErwaySherwood, McPherson College facilitate this
installation designed and executed by the college
sculpture class. These environmentally friendly
sculptures made of natural and recyclable materials
are the result of the students’ perspectives and
aesthetics applied to the challenge of creating a
work of art which would eventually disappear.

West of the Bicentennial Center Bridge
Looks Like Lips
Ann Arkebauer, Salina, presents ten large colorfully
painted canvases featuring multiple intersecting,
angular and opposing radiating lines. Viewers
are challenged to determine “background” and
“foreground,” while discovering “pattern groupings”
as they come alive in each panel.

Mystic Garden
Gypsum sculptor, Don Osborn considers the
simple beauty of plant life…a series of large
aquatic plant-like forms constructed from
natural branches and cuttings reference and
contrast the regional Kansas landscape. Bright
celebrative colors spark the imagination and
lead viewers to reflect on history and the
perception of object and of art, a relationship
shaped through layered interpretation.

Explore the Mystery
of the
Girl Who Lived in the Sign!
Salina sings, dances, produces or presents
art for YOU and with YOU 365 days a year!
We invite you to explore this magical park, transformed during a few
days each year into a colorful bazaar of art, music and festive fun.
Then see the city again and again—explore the mystery of the Girl
Who Lived in the Sign by investigating her Distance, Direction,
Event installations here at the park and her Circuit Diagrams in
downtown and beyond—find the energy that invigorates Salina
to be the great place it is. (See page 15 of this program for clues.)

Salina Arts and Humanities Commission received National Endowment for
the Arts funding for Salina Street Sites, a temporary installation project to
commission four site-specific visual art installations in a concentrated area
in the central part of the City. Regional commissioned artists, working with
a mentor knowledgeable in community-based art, developed four distinctly
different installations. We encourage you to explore them.
Waiting in the Wings
A mural designed by David Loewenstein (Lawrence) is being painted in
collaboration with Debbie Wagner of Bennington; created for the wall
behind the outdoor stage at Campbell Plaza, 100 block South Santa Fe.
Organic Constructions
Kenneth A. Huff is an interdisciplinary visual artist (Savannah, GA)
working in a variety of traditional and new media. Working with
Josh Morris (curator, Smoky Hill Museum) time-based video window
installations will explore evolving patterns and forms in nature. 100 - 300
blocks of North Santa Fe. (Festival after dark - Bicentennial Bridge)
Circuit Diagrams
Artists Elizabeth Stevenson (Wichita) in collaboration with Randy Regier
(K-State MFA graduate now living in Maine) have created the second
phase of her 2009 Smoky Hill River Festival project exploring the energy
of the community that is driven by Salina’s incredible arts and cultural
organizations. See inside back cover for clues on where to find them.
Iron Pour
Ed Pogue (Bethany College, Lindsborg) and Tobias Flores (Fort Hays
State University) completed a large Cast Iron Pour in downtown Salina.
Small castings from the pour and a video of the event can be seen at the
Festival Demonstration Area.
