Thanks for watching artZONE: Volume3 last Thursday night on KACV-TV. Just in case you missed it, it is available on our website kacv.org. You can also watch it below.
The episode, packed with original poetry from the Amarillo Public Library’s “open mic” poetry reading, the elegant pas de deux from The Lone Star Ballet’s “Lone star Trilogy” and the fantastic work done by the “15 and one” photography group, celebrates life past and present in West Texas.
The show brings art straight to you from all walks of life and all from right here in the Texas Panhandle. Enjoy the program and take a look at artZONE: Volume 1 and 2 as well. There’s also more to come when artZONE: Volume 4 debuts in December.
artZONE on KACV presents a wide range of artists living in our area who thoughtfully express themselves through dance, photographs and the written word. Watch artZONE: Volume 3 tonight on KACV-TV at 8, the 30 minute program features 9 poets from last February’s “open mic night” at the Northwest Branch library.
The KACV production crew captured the event as it happened with a room full of poets taking turns reciting their original work to an enthusiastic crowd. Some poems rhymed, some did not, some were short and some were not and the subjects ranged anywhere from love and loss to the BP oil spill.
artZONE: Volume 3 also features the beautiful pas de deux between Cynthia Ann Parker and Comanche Chief Peta Nocona, performed by Lone Star Ballet dancers for last April’s “Lone Star Trilogy”.
KACV’s artZONE was there for the debut performance of the original ballet written composed and choreographed by Panhandle people. It tells the story of three of the Panhandle’s historical figures: Cynthia Ann Parker, Mary Ann goodnight and Frenchie McCormick.
And, you’ll never see downtown Amarillo the same way again after looking at the2nd installment of the “15 and one” photography exhibit. A group of local photographers come together with a common theme and interpret it in their own way. This time around they chose downtown Amarillo. They drew their assigned locations out of a hat and then set out to capture the people and places that make up downtown A-town. The result reflects the diversity of the area as well as the diversity of the people behind the lens.
KACV’s artZONE, capturing creative moments as they happen here at home.
