Councilmember Kevin Dayhoff Arts Council report for the June 10, 2019 Westminster mayor and Council meeting:

Councilmember Kevin Dayhoff Arts Council report for the June 10, 2019 Westminster mayor and Council meeting:

There are quite a number of other events coming to the Arts Council. 

For the sake of time, I will just mention two events here. For more information go to: www.CarrollCountyArtsCouncil.org


I was not able to attend the annual Art in the Park festival held on the grounds of Westminster City Hall. In 1993 I exhibited at the first Art in the Park and have exhibited a number of times in the past, but this year I volunteered to help with the horses at the annual Equestrian Special Olympics.

By all reports, this year’s Art in the park went well – and was well-attended. This year, according to a May 29, 2019 article by Cat Righter in the Carroll County Times - Susan Williamson, the visual arts coordinator with the Carroll County Arts Council, said that about 58 artists participated.

“The Art of the Musical Instrument” June 20 through August 9, 2019

Some of the highlights include: “The Art of the Musical Instrument” Exhibit at the Carroll Arts Center

The Carroll Arts Center is proud to be hosting a new exhibit in the Tevis Gallery from June 20 through August 9, 2019. The “The Art of the Musical Instrument” weaves together sound, narrative, history, and actual musical instruments. Guest curator Ryan A. Koons, PhD, focuses on musical instruments as crafted art objects with diverse histories as well as objects that create beautiful sounds.

This exhibit coincides with a performance by Wherligig, the Carroll-based traditional Celtic and Nordic acoustic ensemble, who will perform on Saturday, June 29 at 8 pm using several instruments from the exhibit.

Also on exhibit in the Community Gallery are artworks by members of the Carroll County Camera Club in a show titled “Lens Art” featuring new works in a variety of photographic styles.

The public is invited to a … reception for both exhibits on Thursday, June 20, 2019 from 5 to 7 pm. Complimentary hors d'oeuvres and cash bar will be part of the festivities. The exhibit is free and open to the public.

Respectfully submitted Councilmember Kevin Dayhoff. Any questions, never hesitate to be in touch.

The Carroll County Arts Center is showing a documentary film STEP on January 26, 2018

“STEP” is an inspiring documentary of the senior year of a girls’ high-school step dance team in inner-city Baltimore.

The film is sponsored by JeannieBird Baking Company and hosted by FLIC - Film Lovers in Carroll County and Carroll Arts Center

Westminster Md. - The Carroll County Arts Center (CCAC) is showing a Documentary film STEP on January 26, 2018 at 1 p.m. and 7:00 p.m., highlighting three Senior members of the STEP dance team @ the Baltimore Leadership School for Young Women in Baltimore City.

The film documents their senior year preparing for the STEP competition at Bowie State College along with preparation for college entrance. The film shows the young women striving to be the first in their families to attend college and make dancing a success against the backdrop of social unrest in the city.

According to the JeannieBird Baking Company, “this Friday we’re sponsoring two showings of the hip documentary Step at the @carrollartscenter AND we’ll be sampling some of our sweets in the lobby before the evening show!

“STEP is an inspiring documentary of the senior year of a girls’ high-school step dance team in inner-city Baltimore. The evening screening will be followed with a short step performance by The Lethal Ladies of BLYSW (pronounced bliss.)”

It won the U.S. Documentary Special Jury Award for Inspirational Filmmaking at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival, the Audience Award for Best Feature at the 2017 Sundance American Film Institute Doc’s Festival and the NAACP Image Award.

The young women will be performing live after the movie and then doing a Q&A from the audience. Jeannie Bird Bakery is sponsoring the film. For more information go to www.CarrollCountyArtsCouncil.org.

The visionary trio crossed all gender and race lines to inspire generations to dream big.

The matinee showing at 1 pm will have open captioning to increase the enjoyment of movies at the Arts Center for those with hearing impairments. The 7:30 pm showing will have captioning if requested in advance. Assistive Listening Devices are always available.
