AmeriCamera with Billy Cioffi and T.R. Hummer at OTCA

By Sedona.biz Staff
Wednesday, October 10th, 2012

Billy Cioffi and T.R. Hummer bring AmeriCamera to OTCA Stage

Old Town Center for the ArtsCottonwood AZ (October 10, 2012) – AmeriCamera is the brainchild of musician Billy Cioffi and poet T.R. Hummer. Their first album “High Minded”, released in October 2011, is an American conversation that blends poetry and ‘Americana’ with rock and roll. Billy, T.R., and surprise guests bring the high energy ‘AmeriCamera’ to Old Town Center for the Arts on Friday, October 19th at 7:30 pm.

Landscape and soundscape collide in words and music on ‘High Minded’, volume one from AmeriCamera. The album is a project that puts the music of Billy Cioffi with the words of T.R. Hummer, a thirty-five year scholastic citizen who has made a career as an essayist, poet and teacher. A chance meeting in 2009 hatched a thought bubble that took form and eased itself into a musical endeavor that beds poetry down on an Americana sound blanket. Casting existing poetry to fit with the music beds was not always an exact match with “Mississippi More or Less” taking four separate poems to create a whole song. The musical backing for the album comes courtesy of The Monte Carlos. Read More→

Arizona Center For Afterschool Excellence Awards 9 Stem Grants Supporting Creative Afterschool Programs Statewide

Phoenix AZ (October 9, 2012) – Nine afterschool programs around the state will each receive a $1500 STEM grant from the Arizona Center for Afterschool Excellence and Cox Communications to support creative efforts to incorporate Science, Technology, Engineering and Math into today’s curriculum.

“At a time of shrinking funding in schools across the state, these grants emphasize the critical importance of using an informal STEM approach to curriculum in afterschool and out-of-school-time programs because they remain one of the few opportunities for youth to engage in projects incorporating science, technology, engineering and math,” said Melanie McClintock, Executive Director, Arizona Center for Afterschool Excellence. “The quality of the proposals we received from around the state made the decisions incredibly difficult, but also pointed to the remarkable quality of afterschool programs developed and operating across the state.” Read More→
