WIDENING OUR REACH
Every so often it is healthy for people working together to assess where they are and what they have done. We are affectionately known as JAW (James Gibson Arts, AcquaTroupe and World Oceans Arts). For all practical purposes, we are one unit. We are several hundred people in contact with one another, most of us creative or performing artists. We are trying to use artistic expression to make the world a little better, to inspire and fulfill people, to offer our interpretations of life and the universe in meaningful ways.
AcquaTroupe is rapidly filling up the calendar with future performance commitments and projects throughout North America and Europe. World Oceans Arts is steadily moving through the huge mission of bringing two new movies to the screen: 1969 and Litany, both of which will offer broad commentary on our world today and on who we are as people. Our artistic director is finding the time to publish, record and distribute his 300+ original creations and to mentor some of the most promising artists of the future. Things are busy around here!
An essential ingredient in our recipe of work is to reach out to those in need, to seek ways in which we can not just perform and create, but by which we can actually help people improve their lives. To that end we would like to announce a few favorite humanitarian recipients of benefits from our work. We have already supported these and we will continue to do so: American Behcets Disease Association, Isaiah House in Rochester NY, Shriner's Hospital, St. Jude's Hospital for Children, Alzheimers Association and several cancer prevention/treatment organizations. We urge you to support these and to support us, so we can share the wealth with those who are desperate for help.
Recently we began an ongoing drive to help artists who are frustrated in their career dreams -- by poverty or isolation, or lack of training or disability. These Artists at the Bottom are beginning to receive help from our Friends at the Top: people like you who care about the arts. Maybe you can do without a couple of lattes or an extra purchase that you don't really need, and support this effort instead. Even with just a few dollars, you could make a huge difference in the life of an artist who has something important to say to the world. If you would like to help, please write us at world.oceans7@gmail.com.
Even as AcquaTroupe aims to bring its performances to many small towns, out of the way places and artistically hungry communities, World Oceans Arts is making a commitment to share our talents and projects with audiences who may not enjoy the best access to art. When we release our screen projects, as well as the literature we publish and the CDs we are recording, we will make a special effort to put them into the hands of people who miss out on much of the best the arts have to offer. We think reaching out is the best way to bring together a world of people who fervently want peace and prosperity, lasting happiness and fulfillment. Thank you.
