The PHX Arts and Culture @ 30 Years Celebration\, will take place from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Phoenix Convention Center\, Herberger Theater and on Monroe Street between Second and Third Streets in downtown Phoenix. The multi-site event will feature music\, dance and theater performances\, talks and art making demonstrations. \n“The arts are the living heartbeat of Phoenix\, and it’s been incredible to watch and help this community grow since the creation of the Phoenix Arts and Culture Commission 30 years ago.” Mayor Greg Stanton said. “That is why we tripled funding for the Commission when I took office – creating a strong economy and a vibrant arts community go hand in hand.” \nIn addition to the contributions of the nearly 100 arts and culture organizations\, the celebration will also feature downtown public art tours\, food trucks and activities for people of all ages. Nominees for the fourth annual Mayor’s Arts Awards will be announced from the main stage. \nPHX Arts and Culture @ 30 Years is sponsored by the Phoenix Office of Arts and Culture\, the Arizona Commission on the Arts\, Reimagine Phoenix\, City of Phoenix Water Services Department\, Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport\, and the Phoenix Convention Center and Venues. \nThe Phoenix Arts and Culture Commission was established in 1985 by the mayor and city council to “protect\, enhance\, serve\, and advocate excellence in the arts for the people of Phoenix in their City.” Over the past 30 years Phoenix has experienced an exciting proliferation of arts and culture activity. The Phoenix Public Art Program has collaborated with artists and designers to create more than 180 major public art projects throughout the city. The expansion and creation of cultural facilities\, such as the Phoenix Art Museum\, Children’s Museum of Phoenix\, Arizona Science Center\, Phoenix Theatre\, Ballet Arizona\, Arizona Opera and Black Theatre Troupe\, have dramatically changed the cultural landscape of Phoenix. A 30-year investment in a community grants program has nurtured the development of non-profit arts and culture organizations\, which now number over 160 within the Phoenix city limits\, and supported delivery of cultural services to Phoenix residents in the form of community outreach and arts learning programming.  The non-profit arts and culture sector has become a $300 million economic driver for the city of Phoenix. \nFor more information on PHX Arts + Culture @ 30 Years Celebration and a full list of participants\, please visit phoenix.gov/arts or call (602) 262-4637. Please follow the Phoenix Office of Arts and Culture on Facebook\, Twitter\, and Instagram #PHXArts30. \n\nPhoenix Office of Arts and Culture: 602-262-4637\n\n

The lessons range from early learning of infants and children to highly complex skills required for sports\, yoga\, performing arts and the martial arts. An atmosphere of non-judgment allows individuals of a wide range of ages and abilities to learn at their own pace. Moving with attention you experience a surprising ease in coordinated action. The process stimulates your innate intelligence and ability to self-correct\, improving breathing\, balance\, flexibility and your ability to spontaneously do what you want with precision! \nThese ATM lessons will be specifically geared toward dancers\, focusing on placement and flexibility. \nTammy Rosen Wilbur is the co-founder and former director of NEW ARTiculations Dance Theatre for which she choreographed\, performed and taught. She is also the founder of The DanceLoft\, where she still teaches. In addition to NEW ART\, she performed with FUNHOUSE Movement Theater\, Tenth Street Danceworks and O-T-O Dance.
