Art class to feature dragons The rising popularity of dragons prompted art teacher Anne Mauney to design a week long class dedicated to the creatures. “They (students) love them. Dragons are really big right now,” Mauney said. Held through the Cleveland County Arts Council, the class, which runs July 14-18, is part of the organization's summer art program. Openings are still available. On the first day, students will talk about what dragons Film festival Ju BY ANDIE L. BRYMER Staff Writer A secret agent in Prague, Tibetan politics, an extra ter- restrial stand up comic, the test to find the perfect woman -- these and many more story lines will be the explored during the Real to Reel Film and Video Festival July 17-19. For the second year, the Cleveland County Arts Council is holding its festi- val at the Joy Performance Center bringing to Kings Mountain work by film makers from all across the United States, Canada, Australia, England and the Czech Republic. Only in its fourth year, the festival had entries from 90 film makers from across the world. “It floored us,”said Shearra Miller, arts council director. The four-year-old festival was moved to Kings Mountain Little Theater's mean to them. Mauney will review the principles and elements of design. Then students will draw and sketch their own dragons. After some instruction on how to use oil pastels, stu- dents may add colors to their dragons. Mauney will break out clay on the second day. Students will learn hand building techniques and then they'll design their own dragons. On the third day, they'll glaze the creatures. Joy Performance Center last year. “It’s more fitting to have a film festival in an old the- ater,” Miller said. Films were shown at the council’s arts center in Shelby prior to the move. Miller describes a film as more artistic than a movie. “They’re more artful than commercial,” she said. The concept is catching on in Cleveland County. Last year over 200 came out. The arts council is expecting a good turn out again this summer. “This year people are looking forward to it,” Miller said. Film makers submit their work in hopes of catching the interest of a representa- tive from a large studio. In addition to getting sponsorship from within the film industry, the arts coun- cil would like to add classes and workshops to the festi- val. Miller describes the three Day four is tee shirt day. Students bring a plain white shirt to paint a dragon on. They will use acrylic paint on day five to make mono prints. Mauney is an art teacher at Kings Mountain Middle School. She also teaches in her home studio. Her students inspired the dragon-themed week. “All of them come in with tee shirts with dragons, Chinese dragons,” she said. During the class, students will pull from their own imagination. The dragons do not have to be cute. The creatures can have some spunk. Class for rising 1-4 grades is from 9:30-11:30 a.m. Rising 5-8 grades attend from 1-3 p.m. Classes are held at Kings Mountain Middle School. Students should wear older clothes. The class cost $45.

Film makers are staying at area hotels and eating in nearby restau- rants. “They like our southern hospitality,” she said. Some may like more than the hospitality. Miller sus- pects some of the artists are looking around for potential film locations. “You can see the wheels turning. They're looking at sites,” she said. “This has the potential of being a real- ly big deal.” Some of the films have a mature theme, Miller said. Most of these will be shown later in the evening.
