Welcome Back from Jody Kielbasa

Energy. It’s everywhere you turn on the Betsy and John Casteen Arts Grounds. It’s in the remarkable work being done in the smallest studios and on the largest stages.

Jenny Wales's Inaugural Season at Heritage Theatre

As an actor, a director, and a producer who has worked on major stages in New York and around the country, Jenny Wales is no stranger to opening night jitters. Yet, standing in the UVA Drama Building lobby last June 22, waiting for the curtain to go up on A Chorus Line and on her tenure as Artistic Director of the Heritage Theatre Festival, she felt…at home.

Giving Spotlight: Joe Erdman of the Joseph and Robert Cornell Memorial Foundation

Georgia O’Keefe once said of an artist’s life: "It isn’t just talent… It’s mostly a lot of nerve, and a lot of very, very hard work." The truth is, no amount of talent or hard work survives in this world without the people whose passion and generosity nurture and support it. People like Joe Erdman.

Reflections: Native Art Across Generations

One might say that all art is in some way a product of the work and inspiration of the art, and the artists, that preceded it... But when it comes to the art of indigenous Native American people, the connective tissue is often more easily traced, and the relationships between past and present more interconnected.

Hoos for Art: Lisi Stoessel

I have always been inclined to pay attention to what interests me, and to follow those impulses and see where they lead, even if it is into entirely new territory. Given that I am a pretty curious person, this has led me to constantly evolve as an artist, and I generally haven’t operated exclusively in one discipline for too long.
