The Best And Worst Of The Local Arts Scene In 1997.
By Margaret Regan
ONE OF THE best moments in the whole art year took place
in its earliest weeks. Liz Lerman s Dance Exchange had come
to town in January, and worked intensively with local groups to
incorporate them into a professional performance at Centennial
Hall. After weeks of rehearsals, old Mexican-American women from
El Rio Neighborhood Center, Jewish mothers and children from the
Hebrew Academy, gay activists and even Ken Foster, head of
UApresents,
joined Lerman s troupe onstage for Still Crossing,
a dance about immigration and nationhood. It was a performance at once solemn and joyful. Its best moment,
Bali is slated to become the host of an exhibition by a
U.K.’s Royal Air Force Aerobatic Display Team. The demonstration of top-notch flying is scheduled to be held in Bali in the middle of November 2021.
Quoted by the
State News Agency Antara, Bali’s Governor Wayan Koster said on Tuesday, 30 March 2021, that he welcomed the planned visit, adding that such an event would happen after careful coordination with the National Government in Jakarta.
Governor Koster commented during a visit to his official residence by the
Defence Attache to Indonesia and Timor Leste for the United Kingdom, Michael Longstaff, on Monday night, 29 March 2021.
