SUMMARY:Pushing the Limits
DESCRIPTION:Orange City Public Library will host a free reading\, viewing and discussion series for adults called Pushing the Limits.  The library is one of 100 rural public libraries nationwide receiving grants to host the series.  Pushing the Limits brings together books and video featuring authors\, scientists and everyday people who thrive on exploring the natural world. \n\nSince the beginning of time\, humans have imagined and achieved ways to push the boundaries of the physical world.  We want to be stronger\, smarter\, and more aware\, and we create stories to bring those dreams to life.  But many of those stories are no longer just stories; and with great new advances in science and technology\, we are finding ways in which all of us are able to push the limits every day. \nThe Pushing the Limits program will explore these ideas in discussions that will include feature film quality videos and recommended popular books. The overarching theme is one of real people\, real stories and real science. \nA group discussion event will be held on the following topics and books: \n– MOTION:  Lisa Ko\, The Leavers  – April 24 6:30 pm \n– HERITAGE:  Michael Pollan\, In Defense of Food: an eater’s manifesto  – May 29 6:30 pm \nLocal Partners: \nMelanie Nyhof is an Assistant Professor of Psychology at Northwestern College \nTonya Huenink is a registered dietician and founder of Meal Squeeze. \nOur partners will lead a discussion of the books and videos of author interviews and human interest stories. To obtain copies of program materials\, please contact Amanda Vazquez. \nThis national program has been developed by a team of library professionals\, scientists\, and filmmakers. Their organizations include Dartmouth College\, the Association for Rural and Small Libraries\, the Califa Group (a California-based library consortium)\, Dawson Media Group\, and Oregon State University– with generous funding from the National Science Foundation.

SUMMARY:Adult Book Club- The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath
DESCRIPTION:The Adult Book Club will meet on May 8 at 5:30 pm to discuss The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath. Copies of the book may be checked out at the front desk. \n  \n\nEsther Greenwood is brilliant\, beautiful\, enormously talented\, and successful\, but slowly going under—maybe for the last time. In her acclaimed and enduring masterwork\, Sylvia Plath brilliantly draws the reader into Esther’s breakdown with such intensity that her insanity becomes palpably real\, even rational—as accessible an experience as going to the movies. A deep penetration into the darkest and most harrowing corners of the human psyche\, The Bell Jar is an extraordinary accomplishment and a haunting American classic.

SUMMARY:Onstage Orange City: Kelley Hunt brings blues\, roots & gospel July 1
DESCRIPTION:Beloved Blues Singer Kelley Hunt Returns to Orange City for Free Outdoor Concert \nBack by Popular Demand\, Kelley Hunt and Her Band Bring Blues\, Roots and Gospel Music to Northwest Iowa \nSinger Kelley Hunt is bringing her soul-filled performance back to Orange City with a free concert in Windmill Park on Wednesday\, July 1 from 7 to 8:30 p.m. \nHunt is a triple threat — attracting fans as she writes\, arranges and plays her energetic\, southern-style music. She performed with her band in Orange City three years ago\, leaving a lasting impression. Her Iowa fan base is thrilled to welcome the powerhouse singer-songwriter back. \n“She has drawn quite the following\,” says Jane Vogel of Birdhouse Rentals\, co-sponsor of the Onstage Orange City concert. “Her music has an uplifting message\, and it draws all ages. It’s the kind of music you want to get up and dance to.” \nHunt’s tour stop will feature boogie-worthy new music from “The Beautiful Bones” — her sixth album. \nShe describes her toe-tapping tunes as a combination of blues\, roots\, Americana and R&B. \n“A lot of it is upbeat with a few ballads. I’m really influenced by traditional gospel music\, and most of the things are pretty uplifting and high energy\,” Hunt says.\n \nHunt’s music has wide-reaching appeal. \n“As a family\, we’ve been following Kelley Hunt for 15 years\,” says Lisa Burg of Orange City. Burg’s employer — Orange City Area Health System — is a co-sponsor of the concert. “Our children became fans. She’s an incredible singer. Everything she has produced we’ve loved. She has a huge range\, is an amazing keyboardist\, and truly crosses generations.” \nHunt’s performances draw fans from across the country. She has appeared six times on American Public Media’s A Prairie Home Companion and is currently embarking on a national tour.\nBut there’s just something about Orange City that draws her back. \n“I’m really looking forward to coming — it’s a nice community with a beautiful setting\,” Hunt says. “I know several people in Orange City\, and I’m excited for the band to see it. Plus\, I want to get some almond patties!” \nThe concert is part of Orange City Arts’ Onstage Orange City summer concert series. Guests are encouraged to bring lawn chairs or blankets to the outdoor concert. \nUnity Christian Knight Center in Orange City is the event’s rain location.

SUMMARY:Onstage Orange City: Festival Latino
DESCRIPTION:Festival Latino — a free outdoor event highlighting Hispanic heritage — will fill Orange City’s Windmill Park from 5 to 8:30 p.m. on Wednesday\, June 24. The event is part of Orange City Arts’ Onstage Orange City summer series. \nThe fourth annual community-wide festival will feature authentic Latin cuisine\, an interactive kids’ zone featuring free crafts and activities\, and live music from internationally-known Latin fusion band Tropicante. \n“The Hispanic population has begun to be an important part of the Orange City community\, and it’s important to have shared spaces where we can learn to understand each other and learn about each other’s cultures\,” says Olga Alvarado\, an Orange City Arts board member of Colombian descent who helped plan the event. \nWith nearly 10 percent of Sioux County identifying as Hispanic according to the 2013 Census\, the event aims to foster deeper cultural understanding while providing top-notch food and quality entertainment. \nTropicante\, an energetic Latin-style band led by singers Ed East (Panamanian) and Karin Stein (Colombian)\, will have attendees dancing cumbias\, merengues\, sambas and other irresistible Latin rhythms. \n“Our principal goal is always to have people’s minds opened to the diversity of Latin American cultures through a beautiful\, fun medium — music\,” Stein said. \nStein and East will host a free\, all-ages interactive percussion workshop at 6:15 p.m. before their performance at 7 p.m. \nSeparate from the larger band\, the duo (known as Calle Sur\, right) will also provide a free children’s workshop for grades kindergarten through fifth at 1 pm at the Orange City Public Library. The participants will make simple instruments\, sing\, dance\, and act their way through a Brazilian rain forest. \nFree transportation from Sioux Center will be available. A bus will leave the Centre Mall parking lot at 6 and 6:30 p.m.\, with rides returning from Orange City back to Sioux Center at 8:30 and 9 p.m. \nHarold Heie\, chair of the Festival Latino planning team and chair of CASA (Center for Assistance\, Service\, and Advocacy)\, says Festival Latino is a collaborative effort that aims to bring people together. \n“Part of it is just getting to know one another\,” Heie says. “When you get to know people\, things always change.” \nAttendees are invited to wear traditional clothing from their country of origin. \nFestival Latino made possible by CASA\, Center Fresh Group\, Hands Around the World\, Natural Food Holdings\, Birdhouse Rentals\, Western Iowa Dairy Alliance and Al & Carol Kramer\, in conjunction with Orange City Arts. \nUnity Christian Knight Center in Orange City is the event’s rain location. For changes related to the weather\, visit orangecityarts.net or facebook.com/ocArts.\nBring lawn chairs or blankets.

SUMMARY:Onstage Orange City: Summer Suites
DESCRIPTION:ORANGE CITY – Orange City Arts’ annual celebration of flowering gardens\, music\, art – and irresistible sweets – is coming soon. The 2015 Summer Suites will be held Wednesday\, June 10 in three backyard gardens in Orange City. \nThe event begins at 6:30 p.m. \nThe “progressive concert” will feature The Copoetics of Sioux Falls\, the Le Mars Flute Choir and several visual artists working while the public watches\, with violinist Bethany Dykstra gracing that garden with music. \n• The Copoetics — Dan Finch and Louisa Soli-Holt — invite Summer Suites guests to enjoy their guitar and ukelele\, and Louisa’s “strikingly clear and penetrating voice.” A few years ago\, both left South Dakota for Denver; both taught secondary school; both adored The Grateful Dead and Joni Mitchell. But Louisa’s heart was captured by Dan\, the 5-string ukelele and most recently\, their newborn son. The couple\, now living in Sioux Falls\, has traveled 10\,000 miles\, performing across the American West and educating many people on the differences between North Dakota and South Dakota. \nTheir name\, The Copoetics? “It represents the collective poems of life we all share and create every day\,” said Louisa.  http://thecopoetics.com \n• The Le Mars Flute Choir brings together flutists from Le Mars\, Marcus\, Sioux City and Orange City… and performs all kinds of music\, from grand flute quartets to jazz. Watch for C flutes\, G flutes and piccolos. \nFor Summer Suites\, the seven-member choir will play a lovely variety\, including Irish lilts\, a rag\, Camptown Races\, a light classical piece by Boyce and the fun Little Red Monkey by Jordan. Another Summer Suites performance on June 10 is the Le Mars Flu \nLeft to right are Kathy Moore\, Sue Ashenfelter and Dr. James Schroeder of Le Mars; Lynn Gross of Sioux City; Glenda Drennen of Le Mars; June Palleson of Marcus; and Donna Mortenson of Orange City. \n• Visual artists\, with violinist Bethany Dykstra\, will grace the third garden. While attendees watch\, seven visual artists will work.  Bethany Dykstra\, who has played violin for 11 years as part of eight honor orchestras and now the Northwestern College Chamber Orchestra\, will perform pieces by Ten Have\, Handel and Bach\, accompanied by Kate Noteboom. \nVisual artists: Emilee Berry sat on a poppy-covered stone staircase in Greece\, and discovered the connection between the “light\, organic feel of nature” and hard\, rough architecture. So she loves both strong lines and repetition\, and movement and texture. A recent award-winning art graduate from Northwestern College\, originally from Battle Creek\, she does sculpture\, printmaking and photography\, and will paint at Summer Suites. \nMary Jane Davidson\, of Manitoba—and now Sioux City\, comes from a family of artists\, and learned about painting/ dying on silk from her sister. She stretches white silk\, then hand-paints\, using a variety of methods. Some are unpredictable designs\, others complex and defined\, with the help of gutta or soy wax resists. Many of Davidson’s paintings are on silk scarves. \nRon Erickson\, of Remsen\, has been woodturning for 15 years\, using wood from fallen trees to create bowls\, Christmas ornaments and small boxes. He loves trying new things. It’s a hobby\, so he doesn’t advertise\, but he has exhibited his work in Spencer and Storm Lake. We’re lucky to have Erickson for Summer Suites\, since his June through August priority is not woodturning\, but golf. \nLynne Hubers\, of Orange City\, learned to quilt from a friend in ’97\, and hasn’t looked back. She loves choosing colors\, working with beautiful fabrics\, and designing. She enjoys geometric quilting\, appreciates the finesse of traditional quilting\, and especially likes the slow pace of appliqué work. She’s done one hand-quilted wallhanging — otherwise it’s machine quilting and piecing for Hubers. \n\n \n  \n  \n  \n  \nMarena Nachtigall\, a SE Iowa native\, studied art at Hesston and Bethel Colleges in Kansas\, graduating in ’03. She opened Earth & Art\, ceramics and floral design in Noble. Functional wheel-thrown ceramics is the basis for her work\, with an emphasis on carved and beaded embellishments. Currently Nachtigall and her family live in Orange City. \n \n  \nLauren and Barb Ochsner have spent a combined 50-plus years on custom glasswork and framing\, from their shop — Golden Prairie Art — of Maurice. They have designed and created stained glass for many area churches\, plus Prairie Winds\, the Dordt College library and Orange City Area Health System. They will demonstrate processes in creating stained glass art. \n  \nJudy Thompson\, watercolor artist originally from Chicago and now Orange City\, painted the cover art for the recently published Laura Ingalls Wilder autobiography. Her art has been exhibited across the Midwest\, and she has done many artist residencies\, including two at national parks. Acclaimed as “capturing a sense of place\,” Thompsons’ recent work includes her “Homestead Series.” \nSome artists will offer their art for sale at Summer Suites. \nSummer Suites will be held in the backyard gardens of Sally and Laird Edman (featuring The Copoetics)\, Jodi and Kent McDonough (visual artists and violinist Bethany Dykstra) and Anita and Jack Vogel (Le Mars Flute Choir). \nThe event\, part of the Onstage Orange City series\, is sponsored by Orange City Arts. Instead of a show in Windmill Park\, the event happens in three backyards. \nAdvance tickets are necessary\, at $10 for adults and $7 for students if purchased by June 6 at the Orange City Arts office\, Orange City town hall and Dove Christian Book Store. After June 6\, tickets are $13 and $10. Maps and schedules are provided to ticket purchasers. Rain location will be the Northwestern College DeWitt Theatre. \nSpecial thanks go to Sodexo of Northwestern College and Orange City Floral Company. \nFor more information\, contact Orange City Arts\, 712-707-6514 or ocArts@orangecityiowa.com \n \n\n \nSponsor: Orange City Arts
