In an effort to raise awarenessof the Arts in Hopewell Valleyand engage all three municipali-ties Hopewell Township,Hopewell Borough and Penning-ton Borough in a community-building project, Hopewell resi-dent Betsey Ackerman presented

a Public Arts initiative atHopewell Townships committeemeeting on Jan. 28.

Recent surveys from ourschool district reveal the need forextra curricular opportunities inthe performing, visual and musi-cal arts, Ackerman said. As weall know, our students have beenthe beneficiaries of a great recre-ation and athletics program. Ourgoal is to bring that same kind ofenthusiasm and financial back-ing to an arts initiative.

Ackerman, who was also co-chair of the MarshallsCorner/Pennytown Taskforce,explained how the initiative is agrassroots effort to encourage

and increase the participation inthe Arts while also showcasingthe range of talent Hopewell hasin the Arts community.

The mission of the HopewellValley Public Arts initiative is toadvance the levels of arts andartists and building community,and to find programs and commu-nity space that support the visual,performing and musical arts,

she said.Ackerman further detailed the

goals of the initiative, which in-clude creating a Hopewell ValleyArts Council, involving all threemunicipalities within HopewellValley in the process, engaging adiverse number of participants(schools, businesses, seniors,teens, and other nonprofit organi-zations), and staging a variety ofevents that showcase the artsover the next 18 to 24 months.

Just in time for ValentinesDay, the Hopewell-Keroka Al-liance (HKA) proudly invites theHopewell Valley community to at-tend its Fifth Anniversary GalaCelebration To Kenya withLove at Hopewell Valley Vine-yards on Saturday, Feb. 9 from 6p.m. to 9 p.m.

Bring your valentine and cele-brate a great cause in the warmthof the vineyards tasting roomswith delicious Italian and Kenyanfoods, local wines and live enter-tainment.

The evening will feature a fullnorthern Italian dinner (includ-

ing four of the vineyards ownwines), a sampling of Kenyanfoods (donut-like maandazi, por-ridge-like ugali, stewed kale andchai tea), silent and live auctions

(the latter featuring a surprisetwist), door prizes and favors, andlive entertainment by talentedyoung performers from Penning-tons own Hopewell Valley Cen-tral High School (HVCHS). Netproceeds from the gala eveningwill benefit ongoing HKA infra-structure-improvement projectsfor residents of the Keroka areaof western Kenya in easternAfrica.

Founded in 2008 and jointlybased in both Pennington andKeroka, HKA New Jersey hasraised more than $75,000 in itsfirst five years. It is a tax-exempt,

non-profit, all-volunteer, charita-ble organization, whose goals areto build an ongoing humanitari-an and cultural bridge betweenthe Hopewell Valley and Kerokan

communities and to improve thehealth, education and infrastruc-ture for the Kerokan people overtime.

In 2007, two local teachers David Angwenyi (whose homevillage of Nyanchonori lies with-in the greater Keroka area) andDr. Lillian Rankel led the firstHVCHS Model WHO (WorldHealth Organization) student tripto Kenya. The trip was life-chang-ing for the trip participants; andthe need for action, made clear.

Following that trip, HKA wasformed on Feb. 13, 2008, by par-ents and trip participants who ei-

New Jersey is about one year

away from making history.

For the first time, the Super

Bowl will be played in an open air sta-

dium in a region that is, in early Feb-

ruary, cold. Really cold.

The 2014 Super Bowl is set for Feb. 2

at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford.

Its home to both the Jets and the Gi-

ants, so, in theory, and perhaps only in

theory, they could meet up for the big

game.

Area football fans have obvious rea-

sons to be excited. The trip up the

Turnpike, for example, is a lot easier to

make than one to Florida or New Or-

leans. Theres just something about

having the big game played in ones

back yard that also gets the blood to

pumping a little faster.

But even if you dont know Eli Man-

ning from Eli Whitney, you should care

about this game. The benefits to the

state are huge.

Most tangible will be the economic

impact. The 2014 host committee esti-

mates that about $550 million will be

pumped into the local economy from

tourism and other game-related activi-

ties. That number could fluctuate a bit

depending on which teams make it.

Local teams might not bring in as

many tourists.

Fans are going to stay at hotels, eat

at restaurants and frequent local busi-

nesses. That not only helps the local

businesses, it also generates tax rev-

enue.

Theres also something to be said for

the positive national, and even interna-

tional, attention the game brings to the

region. It can make New Jersey more

attractive, for example, to large con-

ventions and other events that can

bring thousands of people to the state

to stay and spend money.

In any event, were excited about

New Jersey making a splash on such a

prominent stage. It means many good

things for the state.

in our opinion

One year, and countingA year from now, we will be having a Super time

Kicking off

In about a year, the NFLs biggest gamewill take place in New Jersey. Whilethats great news for football fans, itsalso enough to get non-fans excited.The economic benefits associated withhosting such a big event can have afar-reaching positive impact.

Keroka. Since then, HVCHS students andstaff members and Hopewell Valley com-munity residents have visited Kenya multi-ple times (with another student tripplanned this coming summer).

each at the Patron level; or $150 each at theAngel level). Seating is limited, and pre-registration is required.

Along with the several dozenmaps on display, The Gallery atMCCC also coordinated two lec-tures in conjunction with the ex-hibit.

The first lecture, entitledPlanning and EngineeringToday, was held on Thursday,

Jan. 31, and featured director ofMercer Countys Planning Divi-sion Donna Lewis and HopewellTownship's Administrator/Engi-neer Paul Pogorzelski.

Pogorzelski made a short, butdetailed presentation on howplanning was conducted over adecade ago compared to how itsdone today. He showed a varietyof maps, including aerial shotsand older maps that marked hous-es according to the farmersnames.

He also documented how muchthings have changed, planning-and engineering-wise, since then.

I was quite surprised to seethese photographs because, backin the 1930s, I wonder how theygot such good quality, he said.

While detailing all of thechanges between maps from theearly 1900s to maps of today,Pogorzelski also described howmuch easier it makes the plan-ning and engineering process.

Its awesome, he said. Its soinstant.The second talk, which is to be

held on Wednesday, Feb. 13 atnoon, will feature Ph.D. MaxineLurie and editor and cartograph-er of the book Mapping New Jer-sey: An Evolving LandscapeMichael Siegel. They will discuss

their book and the power of mapsin telling a complex story.

permanently located in publicspaces.

In her PowerPoint presenta-tion, Ackerman displayed an as-sortment of examples of othertowns themed sculptures and de-tailed the entire process behindcompleting the project, whichwill take between 18 and 24months.

First, a Steering Committeeneeds to be formed, which will

provide all administrative frame-work and volunteers needed.After that framework is built, thecommittee will put a call out toartists and financial sponsors.

These sponsors purchasewhatever sculpture it is that wewould choose would be symbolicof our valley-wide history some

suggestions have been a cow, billygoat or peacock, Ackerman said.

The goal is to include profes-sional and student artists becausethe committee wants to engageeach of the schools as well so itstruly a community-wide effort.

While reaching out to findartists, the committee will also becollecting sponsorships fromlocal businesses, nonprofits, fami-lies and corporations simultane-ously.

The goal is to have a showing ofall the potential artists in Septem-ber, and then, at the end of 2013,showcase their renderings onpaper to show the sponsors, who

will then each choose an artistthey would like to sponsor andwork with on the design.

Once the artists have been

sponsored, they go off and startdoing their painting, and theyneed a good six to nine months toget done, Ackerman said. In themeantime, while all this is hap-pening, well be having all kindsof events [fundraisers] to raiseawareness, she said.

After all of this groundwork iscompleted sometime in 2014, Ack-erman explained how the initia-tive will culminate with an Auc-tion Gala, where the committee

will make the true money ofthe fundraiser because all of theworks of art are gathered togeth-er to be auctioned off to anybodywishing to bid.

She noted how some of theMiles for Mules sculptures aspart of the New Hope, Pa., PublicArts initiative, sold for anywhere

between $3,000 and $150,000 each.These are tried, tested means

of fundraising and raising aware-ness of the Arts, Ackerman said.

The funds raised from the Auc-tion Gala will be used to createthe Hopewell Valley Arts Councilinitially, and then be used to fundprograms and community spacefor the Arts.

Ackerman added how the Com-mittee received its first donationof three sculptures from J. Se-

ward Johnson, a local philanthro-pist.After hearing Ackermans de-

tailed presentation, committeemembers and residents were ex-

cited and supportive of the proj-ect.

Junior at Hopewell Valley Cen-tral High School and Chair of the

Youth Advisory Board Sean Gun-ther also commented on how its agreat thing to bring the youthand adults together.

We have this whole initiativewith sports and that kind of iso-lates some people parents andgrandparents but, I think Artsis more encompassing for all ofthe people in the township and Icertainly think that individualgroups of youth that participatein this project will get them more

involved in local government andcommunity projects, he said.Ackerman is also going to pres-

ent this initiative to HopewellBorough and Pennington.
