'art, a word for which i have no other meaning but ALIVE' — e.e. Cummings For Dr. Joyce Dorr, chairman of the Music Department and originator/coordinator of UNCA's Celebration of the Arts, these words are at the heart of the array of events that will be taking place throughout April, What began five years ago as a two-week festival with 15 events has blossomed into a month-long showcase of visual, musical, drama tic, and literary creativity. The Music Department sponsors the Celebration; raising funds, publicizing, and scheduling the events (most of which are free). This year's celebration will reflect the art of the 20th century. "Everything that happens will emphasize in some way or other contem porary development in art," says Dr. Dorr, from a Post Wave Music concert by UNCA professor/composer Wayne Kirby to the Graffiti Mural Project and Workshop. "Every member in the art, music, and drama departments is involved in the Celebration in some way or another," she adds. Adjunct faculty and local and visiting artists will also participate in the events. Dorr believes the Celebration "gives everybody a chance to pause for a moment and reflect on the role and value of arts in our society."
