In Us This Day On the Occasion of the Inauguration of Janet Napolitano, Governor of the State of Arizona Speak to the animal in us And the animal will answer. Speak to the human in us And a voice in song will rise. Sometimes, we are brutal and dark green. We are the fishhook thorns on the wild cactus. But sometimes as well, we are the sky itself, That great blue living room filled with endless space In every direction there is to see. We are, As things turn out, the answer and the problem both. Every day we must choose our suit of clothes. All of Arizona stands here today. Today, we inaugurate ourselves. Today, everything is possible. Every vote is filled after all with a dream. But onward, now, to the work of the dream, To the work and its complex surprises: We are so many, and our problems so great They insist themselves in front of our joys. But joy is our greater truth, our common destination. We are in a border time, The border between countries, between centuries, The border between yesterday and tomorrow, What we have been and what we are going to be. We are a state of many languages, many cultures. We must translate this into a state with many ideas. Let us choose the best from this treasury of dreams. Let us create a future We would want to speak in any language. We should not try to predict the future- Instead, let us make it, and let us make it our own. - Alberto Rios Governor Napolitano asked Alberto Rios to write and read a poem at her inauguration. Rios is regents pro-fessor at Arizona State University and a recent nominee for a National Book Award. b u l l e t i n Linking Artists and Communities January/February 2003 #266 2003 - 2004 Guide to Grants Organizations & Schools Guidelines and Applications Now Available Online www.ArizonaArts.org Postmark Deadline: Thursday, March 20, 2003 Our grant program guidelines are now available online: Project Grants; General Operating Support Grants; Arts Education Project Grants; After School/Anti-Drug A.P.P.L.E.

National and State News Artist Credit: Christina Ramirez, "Crowded Room," November 1999, Oil and Urethane on Board State News The “Borders and Boundaries” exhibit features photography of teenagers looking through the lens at their lives. The work offers a view into how identity is expressed by youth from five diverse and unique communities: Guadalupe, Arizona; Second Mesa, Arizona; Cuidad Obergan, Sonora, Mexico; Mesa, Arizona; and the northeastern section of the Navajo reservation, Utah. The photo-graphs in this exhibition give us a glimpse of how community is defined and expressed in the eyes of these youth. Whether a snapshot of a piñata party taken in a backyard or photographs of the sky and land that stand out as culturally signif-icant, the images are a record of sponta-neous and comfortable interactions with their world and deliver intimate, momen-tary glances of community in everyday life. Urban or rural, cultural or geopoliti-cal, the resulting images speak to a cross-ing and blending of borders and bound-aries and evoke a strong sense of culture resonating in history, to the present. Number of works: 45 photographs Space Requirements: 58 running feet Security Requirements: Limited For information on booking this show or other Traveling Exhibitions, call: 602/255-5882 or visit: www.ArizonaArts.org/tep.

Update On The State Arts Budget Fiscal Year 02-03 The Legislature approved cuts to the State budget in November to address a portion of the current year’s deficit The impact on the Commission was a reduc-tion of $230,000, in addition to a reduc-tion of $74,100 made in July. The Commission has made plans to accom-modate these changes by reducing both internal agency progams and the largest grants awarded this year. The Legislature also removed $1 million of principal from Arizona ArtShare, the state’s arts endowment. This fund, designed to build an endowment of $20 million over 10 years, was to receive annual deposits of $2 million. ArtShare had already received deferrals of its 2002 and 2003 deposits, extending the length of time necessary to build the endowment. This removal of endow-ment principal will reduce the amount of interest earned and made available to arts organizations and schools. Fiscal Year 03-04 Governor Janet Napolitano has just released her budget which recommends a flat amount for the Commission for the next two years. The legislative budget plans will be released soon and are expected to be much more challenging. This said, it is vital for policy makers to have accurate information on the impact of state funding in Arizona communities as they make difficult decisions. For information on contacting your legisla-tors and attending the Arizona Arts Congress on February 10, 2003 to speak directly with your legislators, contact Arizonans for Cultural Development at 602/253-6535, or www.azcd.org.

For more information visit: http://www.azcd.org/GAAD03.htm The Corpstein Duplex on Roosevelt: home of the Arizona Commission on the Arts Artist Project Grants and Poetry Fellowship Awards The Arizona Commission on the Arts awarded Artist Project grants to six Arizona artists. Offered yearly, each Artist Project grant awards up to $5,000 to artists to help them complete pro-posed artistic works. There were 86 applications. Tom Miller (Tucson), a writer, was awarded $5,000 to complete New York's Martí, Martí's New York, an impression-istic biography of José Martí's years in New York City, placing the great Latin American poet in the middle of fin de siècle America. Delisa Myles (Jerome), a dancer, was awarded $5,000 for "Mothership: Dances of the Fluid Feminine," an artis-tic investigation into the aging process of women. Seven women, performing and visual artists, ranging in age from 25 to 82, will collaborate under the direc-tion of Delisa Myles to create perform-ance and photography exhibitions based on the questions, fears and mysteries of growing older Alfred Quiroz (Tucson), a visual artist, was awarded $4,993 for "The Parade of Humanity," a collaboration between two artists from Nogales, Sonora, Mexico, and Quiroz. They propose to create 15 portable painted cutout aluminum fig-ures to be installed temporarily on the metal wall of the United States/Mexican border at several locations. Shawn R. Skabelund (Flagstaff), a visual artist, was awarded $5,000 for his three-dimensional media/installation, "Virga (The Hunt for Water)." The installation - a series of conceptual sculptures - focuses on water as one of the most central issues at stake in this region and how this finite resource impacts the diverse cultures and ecosys-tems of the Colorado Plateau. Tim Vanderpool (Tucson), a writer, was awarded $5,000 to complete Border Twilight, a novel. The main character, a reporter for the Nogales newspaper, explores the border finding it to be "a zone of abstraction - a wandering line on a tattered map - and a ruthless break between those who have and those who want." Sharon Wahl (Tucson), a writer, was awarded $5,000 to write I Also Dated Zarathustra, and Other Philosophical Romances, a collection of love stories based on classic philosophical texts. Three additional artists whose projects were not recommended for funding but were determined to be of exceptional merit were selected by the panelists for $500 Professional Development Awards: Cliff Keuter (Mesa), Yves Amu Klein (Scottsdale) and Kay Sather (Tucson). André Licardi, a member of the Commission, chaired the panel. Panelists included Mark E. Cull, Editor and Publisher, Red Hen Press, Granada Hills, CA; Ken Chu, Program Director, Visual Arts and Emerging Fields, Creative Capital, New York, NY; Meg Linton, Executive Director, Santa Barbara Contemporary Arts Forum, Santa Barbara, CA; and Claudia Norman, Artist Manager and Cultural Consultant specializing in performing arts of the Americas, New York, NY. Arizona Poetry Fellowships Announced The Arizona Commission on the Arts awarded Creative Writing Fellowships to nine Arizona poets. The awards were for $5,000 each. There were 182 appli-cants, more than double the number of previous poetry fellowship applications in 2001. Each applicant submitted a six-to- 10 page poetry manuscript which was reviewed by a panel of three poets from outside the state. The panelists read some 1,800 pages of anonymous manu-scripts and made their selections using artistic quality as the sole criterion. The fellowship recipients can be found across the state: Jorn Ake (Phoenix); Marianne Botos (Tempe); Megan Gannon (Prescott); Michael Gregory (McNeal); Andrea Kayser (Tucson); Sean Nevin (Tempe); Natalie Peeterse (Tucson); Judith Sands (Tucson) and Miles Waggener (Prescott). In addition, five awards of merit were made to Arizona poets to encourage writing that showed great promise. Each merit award was for $500. Merit Award recipients: Will Clipman (Tucson); Allan Guisinger (Tempe); Jeannine Savard (Tempe); Lilvia Soto (Tucson); and Heidi Vanderbilt (Benson). The fellowship panel was chaired by Dennis Kavanaugh (Mesa), Commission member, on November 8, 2002. The other panelists were poets Alfred Arteaga (Berkeley, California); Peggy Shumaker (Fairbanks, Alaska) and Natash Saje (Salt Lake City, Utah).

Rather than waiting months for the next Bulletin, we generally can post your ArtsFlash submissions in 10 days or less. To submit items, fax them to 602/ 256-0282 or email them to: pmorris@ArizonaArts.org. Please include a date when your infor-mation should be removed from the site. The Arizona Commission on the Arts awarded Choreography Fellowships to two Arizona choreographers. The awards were for $5,000 each. There were 23 applicants. Each applicant sub-mitted videotapes of his or her work which were reviewed by a panel of two choreographers from outside the state who made their selections using artistic excellence as the sole criterion. Applicants were anonymous during the review process. The $5,000 fellowship recipients were: Ib Anderson (Phoenix) and Cynthia Gutierrez-Garner (Tempe). In addi-tion, an award of merit of $500 to encourage choreography that showed great promise was made to: Mary Fitzgerald (Tempe). Commenting on the work of Arizona choreographers, the panelists said much of the work they reviewed was well con-structed, simple and beautiful. They noted many strong voices that pulled original relationships out of the music. The fellowship panel was chaired by Gary Avey (Phoenix), Commission member, on December 19, 2002. Other Panel members were Yuri Possokhov (San Francisco) and Marlies Yearby (New York City). Choreography Fellowships
