Organization Description:

Copeland Dance was founded in 1985 by Ellen Copeland, and is located in the historic Arcada Theater building in downtown St. Charles. Now under the direction of Marie Bolson, the professional staff of teachers is committed to inspiring the next generation of dancers to develop their own sense of style and dance technique through determination, dedication and self discipline. It is our goal that when Copeland Dance students have left the studio, to pursue dance or any personal goal, that we have added to their character through self esteem and personal sense of responsibility.

The Copeland Dance studio is equipped with full size dance floors featuring premium maple floors, each designed to flex with the dancers movement. These custom engineered "floating floors" reduce fatigue and prevent the ankle and shin pains common to rigid flooring. Modern, complete sound systems, wall to wall mirrors, high ceilings and custom designed ballet barres provide functional and appealing atmosphere for dance.

Classes offered include: Ballet, Pointe, Variations, Cecchetti, Character Dance, Tap, Jazz, Hip Hop, Modern, Lyrical, Leaps & Turns, and Pre-dance for ages 2-Adult. Copeland Dance is also pleased to offer our students performance opportunities through our Inspire and Spirit Dance Companies.

lremby — Fri, 24 Sep 2010 14:37:28 -0500

Event Type:

Workshop

Thursday, November 4, 2010 - Sunday, November 7, 2010

The Wilson Center is pleased to announce a Creative Writing initiative starting with an intensive, 3-day fiction-writing seminar for adults with best-selling author Jacquelyn Mitchard.

Jacquelyn Mitchard’s first novel, The Deep End of the Ocean, was named by USA Today as one of the ten most influential books of the past 25 years and was chosen as the first novel in the book club made famous by TV host Oprah Winfrey.

From idea to page, this retreat-structured course is for adults who have tried or considered writing fiction, focusing on the meaning and practice of key elements including structure, description, and dialogue. You will discover the essence of your subject, why it matters, and how to begin—whether you have a partial manuscript or notes for an idea.

Participants will enjoy:

An intimate, intensive creative writing experience with an acclaimed author
Most meals, refreshments, and hotel provided
The beautiful surroundings of the Wilson Center and Mitchell Park
Free ticket to attend the Wilson Center’s cabaret performance by Kurt Ollmann and Jack Forbes Wilson

Tuition (all inclusive): $1,995 per person
