CMHS volunteer Jacob Jennings, poet Joanna Ballard


Jacob Jennings, Joanna Ballard

Poetry Place utilized many methods of bringing word power into the air. Joanna Ballard was a tireless manager of volunteers and enticer of young wordsmiths.



She reminded me that Artspace in the West Edge will present a Play Production Workshop for children ages 8 - 12 beginning Saturday, May 7. The classes will run weekly except for a Memorial Day break on May 28 until the final workshop culminates in a public performance on June 18.

The Play Production Workshop will focus on all facets of producing a play: writing, direction and technical production.

Joanna Ballad will be the instructor of writing. John Daniel will focus on the direction and acting portion of the workshop.
Denise Peske Dews and Ben Dews will lead children in the technical aspects – costume construction and set building and associated activities.

Fee: $100. Pre-registration is necessary. There are a limited number of spots in the course. Call 673-6535 to register.
