 Hiplet Ballerinas on Good Morning America Beginning Feb. 28, Chicago Multicultural Dance Center’s select Hiplet Ballerina Company will visit the Quad Cities for a week in residence through Quad City Arts’ 2021-2022 Visiting Artist Series. Hiplet Ballerinas first found fame in 2016 when their videos went viral on BuzzFeed, Good Morning America, and The Huffington Post. Since then, they’ve traveled the world performing in Paris Fashion Week, at half-time shows for the NBA, in Hong Kong’s Chinese New Year’s Day Parade, and more.  Hiplet Ballerinas on America's Got Talent Hiplet fuses classical pointe technique with African, Latin, hip-hop and urban dance styles that are rooted in communities of color. It was specifically designed to make ballet accessible to all, by mixing it with current popular songs that will be familiar to audiences who don’t normally attend ballet performances. Performances may incorporate the rhythms of African drums with Tchaikovsky, arabesques and beat-boxing or even Tango en pointe - all while showcasing audiences will recognize from Black Violin to Beyonce. After features on Good Morning America, Buzzfeed, and The Huffington Post the new art form went viral in spring 2016 and has now amassed over a billion views. During their residence Feb. 28 through March 5, Hiplet will visit 10 elementary schools, a junior high, and a high school, bringing Hiplet's trademark sass, hip movements, and struts against popular music to Quad City school audiences. This educational residency of Hiplet Ballet is sponsored by David and Peg Iglehart.  Their full-length public performance will be 7:30 p.m. Saturday, March 5, Galvin Fine Arts Center at St. Ambrose University, 518 Locust St., Davenport, IA 52803. This must-see show fuses classical pointe technique with urban dance, fueled by inclusivity, modern movement, and Instagram-ready style. Come see the company everyone is talking about during this special one night engagement. Tickets for Hiplet Ballerinas are $20 for adults, $15 for seniors/faculty, $10 for children, and can be purchased online at https://www.showtix4u.com/event-details/60268 or at the door.

The Quad City Arts team is growing and we are happy to welcome to our group a new Events Coordinator, Ben Gougeon! Ben has had a very decorated acting career but at the root of his passion is creating theatrical experiences for the public to enjoy. We can't wait to see him add flare to all of our events. Get to know a little bit about Ben and his incredible roles! Are you a Quad Cities native? What brought you to the Quad Cities? I actually grew up in northern Michigan, but did go to grad school at Western Illinois University in Macomb. After spending 11 years living and working in NYC as an actor, I relocated to the QCA in 2019 to raise a family with my amazing partner Liz, who was born and raised in the area. What is your biggest achievement/goal/moment of success to date – personal or professional? Oh gosh. I mean, the most recognizable would certainly be some of the TV acting work I’ve done. One of my favorites there was getting to be on The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. I love that show! I got to do a scene with Alex Borstein, who plays Susie. She won an Emmy for that season, so I like to think I hold a tiny, tiny part of that…ha! Also, getting to work with Maggie Gyllenhaal on The Deuce was incredible. To work with someone of her stature, and seeing the excellence, professionalism, and grace with which she goes about her business was amazing to witness firsthand. Personally though, it’s hands down the birth of my son. He’s 18 months old and just the most incredible little fellow. Video clip from Golden Globes Nominated film "The Deuce" (2019)
How did you first learn about Quad City Arts? We live in the Broadway District in Rock Island, so frequently walk through the downtown area. I knew it was there, but my first real ‘experience’ with the organization was attending last year’s Chalk Art Festival. We brought the kids down, watched the artists at work, danced to some great music, and had a wonderful time! But as I’ve learned more about the organization, it’s truly amazing all the work and programs that Quad City Arts plays a role in: MetroArts, Riverssance, Festival of Trees, Visiting Artists and the Performing Arts Signature Series, among others. They have such an incredible reach into so many facets of our community. What are you most excited for in your role at Quad City Arts? Getting the chance to see and meet all the incredible artists that Quad City Arts works with, both locally and those they bring into our community. One of the things I really miss about New York is the sheer amount of cultural events, performances, and experiences that are at your fingertips, and it’s great to see an organization that’s dedicated to supporting and promoting artists in so many mediums. What is your favorite arts experience in the Quad Cities? That’s a tough question to answer, as I moved here just a few months before the COVID struck and the world shut down, and with our little guy, we’ve been very selective with what sort of public experiences we’ve engaged in. But I really love the Figge, and saw a wonderful production of The Goat; or Who Is Sylvia? by the QC Theatre Workshop. Also, the QCSO is phenomenal!
What is your favorite arts experience outside of the Quad Cities? One that really sticks out is The Hypocrites production of Marie Irene Fornes’ Mudin Chicago in 2007. Also, I was travelling in Poland in 2012, and stumbled upon a production of Stanislaw Witkiewicz’s Anonymous Work by Teatre Witkacy in Zakopane. It was all in Polish, and I didn’t understand more than a handful of words, but the work was so specific and impassioned that it didn’t matter. Both were incredible examples of alive, immediate theatre. Art-wise, seeing Jackson Pollack’s One: Number 31, 1950 in person at MoMA was pretty overwhelming. Who is your favorite artist? (This can be any artist – visual, performing, etc.) Visually, I love Picasso. The lens through which he paints is so unique and insightful, even today. His work always jumps off the wall for me. Seeing Guernica in person is on my bucket list; that piece is incredible. What is one thing that might surprise people about you? I’m an avid Detroit sports fan, especially the Tigers and Pistons. I love fantasy sports, especially basketball, and consider myself a bit of an NBA junkie. Also, I’m amazingly good at Candyland.  Ben answering tough questions on the 2017 film "The Price" This wouldn't be a true questionnaire without throwing a few questions in from our Seven With Kevin Series! What are you currently watching on Netflix or TV? We just finished watching the first half of Ozark’s final season, and I absolutely love that show. Also, Somebody Somewhere on HBO has very quickly leapt into my pantheon of favorite series, which includes Transparent, I Love Dick, and Breaking Bad. Star Wars or Star Trek? Star Wars all day. I was born in 1977, so it’s in my DNA. Part of the reason I wanted to be an actor was because I wanted to be the next Harrison Ford. I’ve ended up shooting for Sean Astin or Stephen Root, but hey, genetics (and a love of cookies)! Where is the best pizza in the Quad Cities (or where you are from)? Well, I’ve not had Harris Pizza yet, which I’ve heard great things about, but we’re partial to Happy Joe’s and Papa Murphy’s. However, Monarch is hands down the best meal I’ve had in town, and Red Band’s Egg and Chorizo Sandwich is addictive! What is your favorite book? I’m a big LOTR fan, any Samuel Beckett, and House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski. That book blew my mind with its construction. Phillip Roth’s American Pastoral is also really high on the list. Where is your go-to place for inspiration? Nothing is more exciting than an empty space. Walking in and imagining what might fill it. Anything from store fronts to warehouses to homes. I’m always looking for a place to create a theatrical event. What profession other than your own would you like to attempt? So many!! I grew up wanting to be a marine biologist or oceanographer, and then realized it wasn’t the right fit the first time I got into open water. But I’d love to swim with and study and photograph blue whales. The sheer majesty and scale of them makes you realize your place in this enormous world. Maybe I’ll settle for being a crew member with Sea Shepherd. If you could have a drink with any artist living or dead who would it be? Samuel Beckett. His writing hits me in such a visceral way that, to me, always speaks to the hope in humanity that we need to continue to cultivate. When you see Ben around, make sure to welcome him to the Quad Cities! He is currently hitting the ground running and planning our summer events, as well as helping out with the Visiting Artist Series. We're lucky to have such a cool new team member!  Two public concerts have been announced in conjunction with the February artists in residence from Quad City Arts’ 2021-2022 Visiting Artist Series. Classical crossover string trio Time For Three will conclude their three-day Quad City residency with a public concert at 7 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 17, at Bettendorf Performing Arts Center, 3333 18th St., Bettendorf.

Time For Three’s residency will be Feb. 15-17 and will serve six schools in the greater Quad City area.  On Saturday, Feb. 26, visiting artist and accomplished pianist/composer Barron Ryan will team up with his Steinway-sponsored father for a performance by Ryan & Ryan of their “Going Gershwin” program 7 p.m. at the Concert Hall at Geneseo High School, Geneseo, Ill.

These public concerts reflect hosting partnerships that allow Quad City Arts to reach a different audience, expanding on our outreach efforts in new venues. These partnerships are aimed at activating new spaces and reaching more people.

 What would you create with $5,000? – Would you buy new equipment to take pictures of the beauties in the city? Would you paint a mural that touches the sky? Would you create your next masterpiece? Quad City Arts is offering a new grant to help local artists keep creating. Quad City Arts’ annual Arts Dollars Grant Program is back this year with several grants including a new Visual Artists Grant. This Visual Artists Grant, funded by an anonymous donor, offers $5,000 dollars to visual artists in support of their creative endeavors. The grant is open-ended and can be used however each recipient sees fit, up to 20% can go straight to the artist pocket as payment to them and the other 80% can be used for a number of things including buying supplies, studio rent, marketing, and ANYTHING that helps the artist continue to create. Each selected artist will also be required to attend two meetings in which are put in place to support the artist through the progression of the year.
Quad City Arts strived to support artists and help them continue to cultivate art here in the QC. With an accessible and uncomplicated application, this Visual Artist Grant is open to any and all visual artists in the area. The application asks for a short artist’s narrative, the artist's resume, and work samples. If you see yourself as a visual artist, apply! With a diverse community panel of judges making the decision, any artist could receive this grant.  Gabi Torres in her Clinton, Iowa studio. Previous Arts Dollars Grant recipient Gabi Torres shares what this opportunity meant for her, “I am really grateful for what the Quad City Arts has been doing in supporting local artist, it has been a game-changer for me personally…it felt wonderful and amazing [to be awarded]. This was the first grant I had received as an artist so it was very validating and so encouraging.” Through the grant, Torres is working to bring more modern art to the Clinton area. In doing that, she has begun working with the Sawmill Museum in Clinton where later this year she will have a free to the public, interactive exhibit displaying a collection of her abstract work.
Torres also shared her feelings towards the new Visual Artist Grant being offered this year, “It is a tremendous opportunity. In talking with lots of artists we’ve all agreed that the grants aimed to help support the buying of materials or a specific project are amazing and wonderful, but it is difficult for us because very few grants support the artist and their time and their actual labor this grant opportunity is different [since 20% can go straight to the artist pocket]. The Visual Artist Grant is a wonderful opportunity for artists in the whole Quad Cities greater area, it is trailblazing.”
Applications are due January 31, 2022 Recipients will be notified no later than March 15, 2022  Quad City Arts is pleased to announce Arts Dollars grants for the 2022 cycle.

The “official kick-off to the holiday season” happens later this month with the KwikStar Festival of Trees! There are many different reasons that people get excited for Festival of Trees, some like to see all the decorated trees, wreaths, stockings, ornaments, etc., others love our events like SugarPlum Ball or Celebrity Lunch, and for others, it is a family tradition. For me, I love it all, but there are two things that rise to the top for me.
The first will always be the impact that Festival of Trees has. I’m not even talking about the impact on a person attending Festival of Trees, studies show events like these reduce stress, increase creativity, and so much more. I’m talking about the impact that is created in the year AFTER the event. Festival of Trees raises money for Quad City Arts. This 10-day event helps put a Visiting Artist into the schools for students, provides funding to pay students to create art through the Metro Arts Youth Apprenticeship Program, helps provide gallery space for regional artists, and more. The second is the Holiday Parade. It is worth mentioning that I am not a parade person. I love that we have them, but I am not one to attend a parade! However, in 2019 I fell in love with our Holiday Parade (2019 was my first Festival of Trees with Quad City Arts). When you hear the marching bands play and see the helium balloons in the sky it is a truly magical feeling. The energy in Downtown Davenport cannot be replicated and it leaves you filled with JOY. Thanks to our community sponsors, not only is it FREE to see it is also televised on KWQC-TV6.
What's New this year?
We'll have new character balloons at the parade,
a brand new floor plan at the RiverCenter, and so much more!
It takes a village of over 2,000 volunteers to bring the magic of Festival to our community each year and we are thankful for all who donate their time to make it a success. Sign-up for a shift and receive FREE admission to come back and visit us again with family and friends.
