Cultural Arts Classes Registration Report—2007 2. Cultural Arts Classes Registration Report—2006 • RECOMMENDATION: Receive Report FINANCIAL STATEMENT: None DESCRIPTION: The Heritage and Cultural Arts Division develops and implements quality programs that strengthen community image, preserve the City's heritage, provide recreational experiences, and encourage healthy lifestyles. This is accomplished by providing diverse cultural program offerings in areas such as music, theatre, dance, and visual arts. Following is a summary of programs conducted during winter 2007. CULTURAL ARTS CLASSES: Cultural Arts Classes are intended to serve customers of all ages and cover a wide range of activities such as Theatre Camps, Dance Camps, Ballet, Piano, Guitar, Country Line Dance, Irish Dance, Drawing and Painting, Kindermusik, and others. Cultural Arts Classes provide an opportunity for participants to attempt new experiences, refine current artistic skills, as well as providing a social setting for meeting new people and sharing cultural arts experiences with friends and family members. Cultural Arts Classes are taught by contracted specialty instructors. Most classes are taught in eight-week sessions but some are more or less than eight weeks and others are offered as one-time workshops. A total of 379 participants registered for Cultural Arts Classes during winter 2007, which was virtually the same enrollment for winter 2006. The cancellation rate was 17% higher than 2006 although the average registration per class increased significantly over last year by approximately 4 participants per class. A number of classes that didn't reach minimum enrollments and were canceled were either new classes or new one time workshops. Popular classes included; Art Experience for Kids, Beginning Irish Dance, Kindermusik Village, Belly Dance, Beginning Guitar, Country Line Dance, Cheerleading, and Snow White & Friends. Attachment 1 is a detailed Cultural Arts Classes Registration Report for winter 2007, which includes a breakdown of classes offered as well as the registration for each class. Attachment 2 is a Registration Report for winter 2006 for comparison purposes. COPIES TO: ITEM NO: 8.2 G:\HERITAGE COMMISSION\AGENDA_STMTS\2007\4-12-07 Winter Quaterly Report-2007.doc New Classes • Snow White & Friends: Twenty two students enrolled in this nine-week program that prepared youth ages 6 to 13 years old for a mini-production of Snow White, which was held on the weekend of March 23`' at the Dublin Senior Center. Students were taught how to sing, dance and act, as well as understanding stage movement and ensemble performing. Beginning Watercolor Painting: Five participants enrolled in this eight-week class for novice artists who learn how to mix and blend watercolors and accomplish the basics of painting and drawing. As noted previously, several other new classes were offered for the winter session but did not meet minimum enrollments. These classes included trumpet lessons, violin lessons,balloon artistry, and several workshops in arts & crafts. Several of these classes will again be offered in the spring session, in the hopes that more interest will be shown from the community for these activities.

Upcoming Summer Camps & Classes In an attempt to reach the parents and guardians of youth in our community prior to making their plans for summer camps, the Parks & Community Services Department has developed an exclusive Summer Camp Brochure which contains all the summer camps offered by the City. This brochure was made available at the St. Patrick's Day Festival, and registration for all the camps begins April 16th, more than a month sooner than the normal summer classes registration period which begins on May 20. The Dublin Recreation Guide for summer classes will also be published and mailed to residents on May 7th: Cultural & Heritage Camps included in the new brochure include returning programs; All 4 Dance Camp, Intensive Summer Dance Program, Magical Dance Camp and Pop Stars Dance Camp, and new programs; Museum Apprentice Teen Camp, Lullaby of Broadway Camp and Annie Jr. Performance Camp. Additionally, a new workshop entitled "Breaking into Film & Television" will be offered by an accomplished producer and director named Akhtar Sheikh, who has written and directed two features produced by San Francisco Bay Area Production Companies. Staff will be exploring the possibility of offering film production classes for teens in the next school year. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission receive the report from Staff. 2 of Winter 06/07 Cultural Arts Quarterly Report Exhibit F GLASS. `: . fi` lEI IM.$. :ESitti MN RES"ftTOTAVN' ''l....1.". ..ii,714tatit.
