MA I N LI N E RE F O R MTE M P L E PR O G R A M

Gifted child art students Tamara and Vladimir Adashkevichgrew up sister and younger brother amid the post-World

War II rubble of the Soviet city of Minsk, wanting to becomefine artists. Reluctantly letting go of their dreams, they chosemore secure career paths. Some 60 years after they paintedtogether, they are reunited in art at the Villanova UniversityArt Gallery.

Their first ever joint exhibit, “Vladimir and Tamara: TogetherAgain,” opened October 16 in the Art Gallery, located in theConnelly Center on the Villanova campus. A free public recep -tion to meet the brother/sister artists will take place in thegallery on Friday, October 24, from 5 to 7 p.m. Refresh mentswill be served. Convenient parking is available.

Tamara and Vladimir invite exhibit visitors to share thesense of beauty reflected in their oil and watercolor can-vasses of places, people and things; hers of Belarus, his ofaround the world.

Leaving behind their hopes for lives as artists, both enrolledin the Belarusan Polytech Institute; Tamara to enter civilengineering, Vladimir thermo physics and thermodynamics.Tamara built her life in Minsk, promising herself she wouldreturn to painting when she retired. As the Villanova exhib-it reveals, she has kept, in grand fashion, her word to herself.

Vladimir kept art in his life, partly as an antidote for hiswork: “Doing art on weekends and vacations was rest for mysoul and an escape from my highly technical occupation.”In his middle years, he changed careers, becoming an inter-preter and tour manager for the government-run Intouristagency. The step would bring him to Villanova University in1992 as curator for an exhibit by leading Belarusan artists.

(Belarus, with Minsk as its capital, became an independent nation following the dissolution in 1991 of the Soviet Union.)When the exhibit left Villanova, Vladimir stayed to obtain a master’s degree in business administration at the Univer -

sity. He would also continue language studies, take courses in the ancient sacred art of Iconography, enter his art in areaexhibits, join the Art Gallery staff, become a member of the Delaware Art League, and marry, not necessarily in that order.

Retiring at 55, Tamara picked up the oils and watercolors she had set aside more than 30 years earlier. Helped by lead-ing Belarusan women artists, she regained her skills, devel-oped new ones. She entered her work in group exhibits andhad solo shows, gaining increasing recognition in the pro -cess.

Tamara’s paintings for the Villanova exhibit include sharp-edged and soft-hued still lifes and scenes of gardens, fields,forests and waterways of her beloved country. The hand ofa very serious gardener shows in her floral still lifes; theoccasional wounded stem and hang-dog pedal lending thema real-to-life quality, while her handling of space and colorgive depth and vitality to her arrangements.

Vladimir’s watercolor cityscapes are inspired by his worldtravels and the milieu of the scuba diver, of which he is anavid one. His sacred icons in egg tempera and fragile goldleaf testify to his faith journey, patient attention to exquis-ite detail, and admitted per-fectionism.

The exhibit continues toDe cember 4. The Art Galleryis open weekdays from 9 a.m.to 5 p.m., with extended hourson weekends. For that andother information, telephonethe Gallery at 610-519-4612.Selected works for the “Vladimir/

Tamara” exhibit may be previewed at www.artgallery.villanova.edu.

Intended for mature audiences, Angels in America, set inNew York in the 1980s, tells the story of a handful of peoplewhose stories intersect as they try to make sense of the world.Among the characters are Prior Walter, a man living with AIDSwhose lover, Louis, has left him; and Joe Pitt, a Mormonlawyer and political conservative whose wife, Harper, is slow-ly having a nervous breakdown. As the play progresses andPrior becomes increasingly unwell, he is visited by the ghostsof his ancestors and an angel proclaiming Prior is a prophet.Joe is struggling to reconcile his religion with his sexuality.Drama director Terry Guerin says, “Students participatingin the Upper School fall play Angels in America are busy put -ting the finishing touches on what promises to be a moving,provocative evening of theater. The student performers andI are extremely grateful for the endorsement of faculty, admin-istrators, and parents on this bold choice. This was the rightplay for our current drama students, and their engagementwith the rehearsal process has been deft and mature. Tomaintain the integrity of this great work of literature, I havedecided to present the play in its original form, both in termsof language and content, cutting just a few scenes. We intendto present this great work with the utmost integrity.”The fall play includes students in grades 9-12: 20 actors, 5musicians, 15 stage crew members, and 4 backstage crew mem -bers. Sophomore Julian Shapiro-Barnum, who is playing therole of Prior Walter, comments, “There’s an incredible vibe aroundthis production. It started out incredibly daunting, but oncethe play was cast, we realized that we could really do this.I’m very proud of it, so far, and really excited to show thisto my family and friends.” Playing the Bethesda Angel is seniorIvana-Ajee Dolic, who says, “It has been a great bonding ex -perience for all of us. Even those who aren’t in the show havebeen very supportive. The community’s reaction has beengreat.”Support has also been pouring in from the FCS alumni/aecommunity. Tom Robson ’98 writes, “My high school is doing

Angels in America as their fall play this year. In related news,my high school has way more guts and heart than 99.9% ofother schools, and frankly more than many colleges and pro -fessional companies. I am an exceptionally proud Friends’Central School alumnus and just as proud to have been taughtby Terry Guerin.” Leah Franquin ’05 comments, “My highschool is performing Angels in America – because they areawesome, because it is an amazing play, and because whyon earth shouldn’t they? I’ve met college students, graduatestudents, adults, and theater professionals who haven’t readthis play … who are offended by this play. Thank you, TerryGuerin, thank you, Friends’ Central School, and thank you tomy parents, who sent me to a place that is making this happen.”David Brind, a writer and filmmaker whose work has screenedin some of the most prestigious film festivals in the U.S., in -cluding Sundance, Tribeca, and Outfest, and Friends’ CentralClass of 1996, says, “Sharing different points of view and ex -posing bright young minds to worlds outside of their own was(and it appears still is) what Friends’ Central was all about.Thank you to Terry and the school for quietly affirming myidentity, and those of a multitude of others in the FCS com-munity. I wish the current students in the production con-gratulations, and applaud them for their own unflinchingcourage and openness. Have a blast and rock your collectiveaudience’s world.”Friends’ Central School is a Quaker, independent, co-edu-cational, college preparatory day school for nursery throughgrade 12. Located on two campuses in Wynnewood, PA,Friends’ Central blends a rigorous curriculum with enduringQuaker principles of kindness, compassion, and generosityof spirit to create a solid foundation for a future of oppor-tunity and success. Students at Friends’ Central are taughtto think critically and creatively, and learn the value of goodcharacter and strong work ethic to develop into thoughtfuland determined citizens. The graduates of Friends’ Centraland their impact on the world are proof that Quaker Works.

Minas Kicks Off Darlington’s Coffee House Concert SeriesSaturday, October 25 at Darlington Arts Center

Stephen Pressman, the producer of the Emmy-nominatedfilm, “50 Children,” will be at Adath Israel on Sunday, Nov -

ember 2, 2014 where he will show his film in commemora-tion of Kristallnacht. Pressman will lead a discussion afterthe conclusion of the film which is approximately 60 min-utes long.“50 Children” is a heart-wrenching story about a Philadel -

phia couple, Gilbert and Eleanor Kraus, who traveled to Vienna,Austria in 1939 in order to save 50 children from deporta-tion to Nazi extermination camps. Despite the tight restric-tions on immigration to the United States at that time, theKrauses succeeded in securing 50 visas from the U.S. gov-ernment and 50 passports from the Nazis who would soonclose the door to Jewish emigration. The children sailed toNew York with the Krauses aboard the USS Harding. Upontheir arrival in the United States, they were settled with rel-

atives or foster families. Gilbert and Eleanor Kraus rarely spoke of their heroic act

in transporting the largest group of children to the UnitedStates from Nazi-occupied Europe. However, Eleanor Krauskept a journal discovered by her granddaughter, Liz Perle,which serves as the backdrop for “50 Children.” StephenPressman, Liz’s husband, was so intrigued by the story thathe tracked down some of the children through the UnitedStates Holocaust Memorial Museum and interviewed them.The children, now in their 80s, remember the voyage vivid-ly and recount their experiences in the film. The screening is open to the public and will take place on

Sunday, November 2, 2014 at 7 p.m. The cost is $10 per per -son and light refreshments will be served. Doors open at 6:30p.m. For info, call 610-934-1919 or visit www.adathisrael.org.

St. Christopher’s Hospital for Children to Host Child AbusePrevention Conference and Celebrate 10 Years

Penn Vet’s Ryan Hospital is hosting the 7th annual National Service Dog Eye Exam eventsponsored by the American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists (ACVO) and Merial.

On May 6, 8, 12-16 and 21, Penn Vet’s Dr. Gustavo Aguirre, professor of ophthalmology;Dr. William Crumley, staff ophthalmologist; and Dr. Stephen Gross, staff ophthalmologist,will join 190 ACVO board-certified ophthalmologists conducting eye examinations across thecountry.

The ACVO/Merial National Service Dog Eye Exam is a philanthropic effort generously pro -vided to the public by the board-certified Diplomates of the American College of VeterinaryOphthalmologists, who donate their time and services to provide free ocular exams to quali -fied service animals.

As a way to serve dogs who dedicate their lives to serving us, these exams are free to reg-istered service dogs across the United States and Canada. Through these efforts, service doghealth can be improved and potential disease averted.

How to Make an AppointmentTo qualify, animals must be “active working animals” that were certified by a formal train-

ing program or organization or currently enrolled in a formal training program. The certi-fying organization can be national, regional, or local in nature.

1. Owners/agents for the animal(s) must FIRST register the animal via an online registra-tion form at www.ACVOeyeexam.org. Registration ends April 30.

2. Once registered online, the owners/agents will receive a registration number and willbe allowed access to a list of participating ophthalmologists in their area.

3. Owners/agents may then contact Ryan Hospital’s appointment desk (215-746-8387) toschedule an appointment

What Veterinary Ophthalmologists Look for During the ExamDuring the complete ocular exam, veterinary specialists look for problems including red-

ness, squinting, cloudy corneas, retinal disease, early cataracts, and other serious abnor-malities. Early detection and treatment are vital to these working animals.

The American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists® is an approved veterinary special -ty organization of the American Board of Veterinary Specialties, and is recognized by theAmerican Veterinary Medical Association. Its mission is “to advance the quality of veterinarymedicine through certification of veterinarians who demonstrate excellence as special istsin veterinary ophthalmology.” To become board certified, a candidate must complete a Doctorof Veterinary Medicine degree, a one-year internship, a three-year approved residency, andpass a series of credentials and examinations.

What did it mean to our

grandparents? What will it

mean to our grandchildren?

WHAT WAS IT LIKE FOR OUR

ancestors to say goodbye to the shtetl, to set

out to discover new lives for themselves, along

with all of the liberties the free world had to

offer? At the dawn of the enlightenment,

how did our parents adapt their Judaism

to the developments of a modern age?

And what can we learn from their

struggles, in order to connect

more deeply with our own

Jewish identities?

The Friends Free Library at Germantown

Friends School celebrated National Library

Week by asking library visitors (students, em -

ployees, parents and community members) to

share how libraries have changed their lives.

“It has been so much fun to hear all of the

different stories,” says library assistant Kath -

ryn Murphy. People wrote on a dry-erase sign

and shared a “selfie” photo to the nationwide

hashtag campaign #NLW14 #LivesChange.

The stories included a high-school student

recalling memorizing her library card number

before she knew her phone number, a pre school -

er writing that reading books about dinosaurs

makes him feel like he is “living with the dino -

saurs” and a community patron sharing his dream

of one day becoming a librarian. “Dreams are

discovered in libraries and libraries provide a

path for those dreams to come true,” says Murphy.

Kackie St. Clair, head of the Friends Free Library,

says, “Libraries are a place to connect your

knowledge and your curiosity to the worlds be -

yond the library walls; and a much-needed place

for some peace

and quiet.”

At the FFL, the

staff assists com -

munity mem-

bers with com-

puter skills, writ -

ing resumes and

filling out job

applications.

The also get to

know and help every student. “These connections may be small but they are significant in

building a sense of community and belonging,” says Murphy. “Libraries provide endless

resources and support—for FREE! That is a beautiful thing.”

Two months into her sophomore year as head of Germantown Friends School, Dana Weeksis brimming with plans and ideas about innovative approaches to education, technology,

scholarship funds and the many opportunities for the school’s historic Germantown cam-pus.According to Weeks, one of the most exciting changes this year is the launch of a January

Term for Upper School students. For a month, students and faculty will step outside thebounds of the usual curriculum. “It allows the teachers to play to their strengths and devel-op new, creative curricula, and for the students to explore the breadth of knowledge andlearning available to them,” explains Weeks.Students will have access to 80 new courses, including neurobiology (which Weeks is teach -

ing), three-hour long art classes, 3D printing, number theory, magazine writing and mind-fulness through yoga and meditation. “January Term allows all of us to step away from thedaily pressure, use our time differently and explore new subject areas,” says Weeks. “As aschool that values simplicity, this is a way to support that testimony and approach to living.”Weeks is impressed by the faculty’s willingness to “think differently about teaching and

learning,” and is excited to be working with the “new and energized leadership across divi-sions,” which includes new heads of the Lower, Middle and Upper Schools, as well as thenewly-appointed heads of curriculum and instruction in the Lower and Middle Schools andthe new Associate Head of School Rita Goldman. Weeks has also announced a Faculty Technology Initiative. “This allows teachers to apply

for funds that they need to purchase devices or software to best support the students andkeep them on the cutting edge of what is happening in the world,” explains Weeks. However, when it comes to technology and students, Weeks says with a smile, “Our chil-

dren know more about technology then we do, generally speaking. They are nimble and agilewhen it comes to understanding and finding new ways to use it, so quite frankly, I think thatwe should follow their lead instead of trying to thrust our understanding of technology onthem.”Weeks is not a believer in one size-fits-all technology use, such as putting an iPad in the

hands of every Kindergartener, an approach she finds “too standard.” “It’s about finding whatever tool is necessary to tap into a child’s potential,” she says. “If

a device is the best tool to use to access their creativity then it should be available.”Germantown Friends School is marking the 50th year of its Community Scholars Program

and Weeks is in awe of its history and impact. “I really admire that it was founded in responseto what happened in [civil rights era] Birmingham in 1963 and that response has had a last-ing impact on our community. “Fifty years later, CSP still helps us live our mission of being a school that is available to

students from a variety of walks of life, life experiences and family structures,” she shares.The program has provided a model and inspiration for the GFS community to continue

reaching out. “My very first meeting with a student last year was with a young man whocame to me and said, ‘Why don’t we have a scholarship fund for Latino or Hispanic stu-dents?’” Weeks’ response was, “I don’t know. Why not? Let’s get one.” As a result, the schoolis now working to endow this new fund.GFS is also nearing the end of a facilities audit that has examined all of the buildings,

infrastructures and uses of space on campus. Weeks sees endless potential for the historicbuildings and urban campus, and is eager to see the community-building impact of the audit’srecommendations. “If we create spaces where students and teachers of all divisions over-lap, we will end up with more opportunities for natural collaboration, which will lead to moreinnovation and creativity.”Weeks, who is a Philadelphia native, is thrilled to be back in her hometown after spend-

ing years in New York City. “When I left Philadelphia, it was not nearly the vibrant city thatit is today,” she says. “It is all so hip and young and exciting now.” As head of GFS, she has hit the ground running (a fitting start for this marathon runner).

She brims with energy, creative ideas, innovation and a passion for what a GFS educationis and could become. She especially enjoys spending time with the students, whom shedescribes as open, honest and articulate.“When I am around them, I see a world of possibilities. It reminds me why I work in edu-

cation.”

The motto from the earliestdays of Lansdowne Friends

School has been “Serviceabove Self.” At LFS, servicetakes many forms. “At the most basic level,

students are expected to takepersonal responsibility for theschool,” said Head of SchoolJohn McKinstry. Older classeswork with the younger class-es as another form of service.“However, our service alsoconnects the outside worldto the curriculum and helpsbuild relationships among ourstudents and various commu-nity organization,” McKinstrysaid.On October 2 most of the

school spent the afternoon en -gaged in projects with theschool’s surrounding com-munity in mind.The school’s fifth and sixth

graders tended to street treesin Upper Darby, Lansdowneand East Lansdowne with mem -bers of the Darby Creek ValleyAssociation. Third and fourth graders cooked for the Life Center of Eastern Delaware County, part of Lansdowne FriendsSchool’s monthly commitment to help provide meals for those experiencing homelessness. First and second graderspicked up trash on the campus and the surrounding neighborhood.

“On a broader level, service requires collaboration, fosters empathy and a sense of civic and social responsibility,”McKinstry said. “Ultimately, we hope it will help students internalize a strong sense of purpose and will help then decidewhat they will do in their adult lives.”

a severe case of

Music and quite

an accomplished

violinist for his

young age.

Chanlan had a

deep passion for

music that was transparent and vibrant. He was involved

in not only solo performances, but chamber groups and

intensive summer camps. His hard work paid off when he

was the youngest soloist chosen to perform on the stage

at the Kimmel Center as a platinum winner of the NBS Golden

Key Competition. In addition to his heart for playing, he was

also dedicated to the scholarship program that supplement-

making her one of a select group

of Americans to have attained

that honor. A member of the

Broadcasting and Cable Hall of

Fame, Roberts also serves on

the boards of several non-prof-

Three Devon Prep students,Sixth Grader Stefan Jons -son of Wayne, Eighth

Grader Dylan Rasinski of Lans -dale, and Ninth Grader BenjaminKilroy of King of Prussia, wererecognized as 2014 High HonorsStudents by the Johns Hop -kins University Center for Talent -ed Youth (CTY).Every year tens of thousands

of outstanding students fromthe U.S. and abroad challengethemselves by taking an above-grade-level test as part of theJohns Hopkins University TalentSearch. The tests offered in -clude CTY’s School and Col -lege Ability Test (SCAT), andthe college entrance examsSAT and ACT. Johsson tookthe SCAT test as a fifth grad-er, Rasinski took the SAT as aseventh grader and Kilroy tookthe SAT as an eighth grader.Jonsson and Rasinski received

High Honors for their Verbal/Reading scores and Kilroy received High Honors for his Mathe -matics/Quantitative scores. These young men received “High Honors” because they achievedoutstanding results on their exams. Less than 30% of students who test earn such recog-nition. Considering that all students who enroll in the Talent Search are very bright, scor-ing at these top levels is a great achievement.Devon Prep is a private Catholic college preparatory school for young men in grades six

through 12 conducted by the Piarist Fathers and located on Philadelphia’s Main Line. DevonPrep students hail from Chester, Delaware, Montgomery and Bucks counties as well as partsof Philadelphia. For information contact Devon Prep at 610-688-7337 or visit www.devon-prep.com or www.facebook.com/devonprep.

Devon Prep students Stefan Jonsson, Dylan Rasinski andBenjamin Kilroy were recognized with High Honors by the

Johns Hopkins University Center for Talented Youth.
