ARTechology - Phantasy of the Arts 2012
What happens when the worlds of art and technology collide? ARTechology, Phantasy of the Arts 2012! Join the excitement, Saturday, October 13, 2012 at 7 p.m. as Corbian Visual Arts and Dance Troupe, Lightwire Theater, hot off NBC's "America's Got Talent," brings its illuminating dance show to downtown Fairhope. Proceeds from the evening benefit Fairhope Educational Enrichment Foundation and Fairhope public school students.
Led by New Orleans-born and Broadway stars Ian and Eleanor Carney, with co-creator, Broadway dancer Corbin Popp, Lightwire's incandescent dance spectacle wowed "Talent" judges Howard Stern, Sharon Osbourne and Howie Mandel.
Appealing the child in everyone, Lightwire will use its electroluminescent technology, full-body puppetry, choreography, and a wide-range of music to perform the beloved tales, "The Ugly Duckling" and "The Tortoise & the Hare.
After the show, the party moves from the Fairhope Civic Center to the Eastern Shore Art Center where patrons will enjoy food prepared by award-winning chef Tyler Kean of The Fairhope Inn & Restaurant and the fast-paced, energetic music of the band Figure 8.
With this year's ARTechology theme, Phantasy of the Arts co-chairs Robin Coleman and Kathleen Taupeka are orchestrating an exciting evening of arts and technology, raising funds for those same programs in our schools. Proceeds from ARTechology will be used to purchase Apple iPad Learning Labs iPads on portable carts for students in grades K-8 and for professional development opportunities for all teachers to make the most of their classroom digital tools.
Since its inception in 2004, Phantasy of the Arts has raised more than $400,000 for Fairhope public school students, providing schools with money for arts, technology and academics. One of FEEF's main fundraisers, Phantasy highlights performing, musical, visual and culinary arts.
