Schools' district. Orange County Schools, comprised of 13 schools, includes seven elementary
schools, three middle schools, three high schools and an alternative school all located in

School Arts Program
Cedar Ridge High School offers Art, Band, Theatre, and Chorus to students.
Within Orange County Schools, elementary students participate in Art and Music as part of their
special area classes, and middle school students can participate in Music, Art or Band.
Proposed Use of Grant Funds
On April 27, 2017 Cedar Ridge High School will host Cultural Explosion, an Orange County
SchooisLdistrict-wide-eventfor students and families-within-the-Orange County-Schools'-district—
Cultural Explosion will bring together all schools –elementary through high - in Orange County
and the surrounding communities to celebrate diverse cultures from around the world and
recognize their impact on education. This event is comprised of student performances,
interactive culturally-themed booths and demonstrations, community organizations and food
vendors with an international flair. With more than 1,000 students and their families expected to
attend, the event provide multiple opportunities for learning about a variety of cultures across
the globe in one venue. This year's theme is Celebrating the Beauty of Earth and Its Inhabitants,
which encourages cultural understanding, as well as respect for the world in which we live. Each
school is assigned a different continent and/or geographic area to study, and they will then
create a booth to host at Cultural Explosion as a way to share the information they learned in a
hands-on way. Classroom teachers and special area teachers are very involved in the process,
several of which who serve on the planning committee, so this is a true collaborative effort.
There is also a poster contest for students, a multicultural mask-making activity and continental
beading activity.
Funding from the Orange County Arts Commission will support two artistic pieces of Cultural
DocuSign Envelope ID: EC417424-B3E6-4014-A465-9859A57DDD04
Explosion that will serve as anchors at the event -the Scrap Exchange and the Bluegrass
Experience band. The Scrap Exchange is a nonprofit organization with a mission to promote
creativity, environmental awareness, and community through reuse. Founded in 1991 by a small
group of people who were seeking to establish a sustainable supply of high-quality, low-cost
materials for artists, educators, parents, and other creative people, the Scrap Exchange has
7 grown into a magical place for children and adults to create. During Cultural Explosion, their
workshop leaders will help students and families transform clean, reusable industrial discards
into inventions for science, hats and costumes for plays, games and toys for fun, and much
more. During the event, the Scrap Exchange will be housed in the library, and students and
families can flow in and out of the space. Participants will use creative and higher order thinking
skills to create pieces of artwork and functional objects from recycled materials. This not only
connects with the Visual Arts curriculum standards across grade levels (creating using a variety
of tools, media and processes; enhancing creative and critical thinking skills; understanding the
global context of the visual arts), but also Science (the inquiry-based design process) and Social
Studies (environmental awareness, etc.)
In addition, the Bluegrass Experience band will perform at Cultural Explosion to provide
attendees with yet another cultural educational experience. The Bluegrass Experience is a trio
with multi-instrumentalists (featuring guitar, banjo, acoustic bass and mandolin). Lead musician
Tommy Edwards—a teacher, musician and performer—will create a unique learning experience
for those in attendance and tie in the cultural aspect of bluegrass music. This performance will
tie in directly with the Music curriculum standards, including interpreting, creating and
responding to music and understanding the global connections with music. In addition, as part
of the social studies curriculum, students will be exposed to diverse cultures through watching
and engaging in the unique cultural art form of bluegrass music as it relates to the history of
North Carolina. Edwards is a retired public school teacher/administrator and consistently
integrates curriculum into his performances.
Cultural Explosion as a whole allows students and families to explore diverse cultures on a very
deep level through hands-on experiences while building connections within the community. This
directly links with the Social Studies standards across all grade levels and helps foster an
understanding of all people in our community and world. Furthermore, many students and
families share their own cultures at the event, which helps them feel connected and understood.
While-there are-many cultural resources avail able to families-in-the-ar-ea tnder-served-students
often times do not experience them because of the cost. Offering this event at no cost creates a
high level of accessibility so all students and families are included.
There are 7,526 students in the elementary, middle and high schools of Orange County
Schools, as well as 553 teachers. Of those, 52.5% are male, and 47.5% are female. Students in
elementary school are between 5 and 11 years old, middle 11 and 14 years old and high school
14-18 years old. The following is breakdown of race/ethnicity for Orange County Schools. Note:
Since Cultural Explosion is a district-wide event, the following demographic information is

Bluegrass Experience Bio
Tommy Edwards is a fixture in traditional music circles in North Carolina. He currently is the
guitarist, lead vocalist and emcee for one of North Carolina's longest lived bands, The Bluegrass
Experience which celebrated its forty-fifth anniversary in 2016. He was twice named World's
Champion Bluegrass Guitarist at the Union Grove, NC Fiddler's Convention and has recorded (,
four albums with The Experience as well as 6 solo projects, including "North Carolina: History,
Mystery, Lore and More" which was reviewed most favorably in The News and Observer as well
as Our State magazine which also featured him in an article about his musical journey
(www.ourstate.corn/tommy-edwards). An energetic performer and songwriter he currently
sings and performs on banjo, mandolin and guitar with several bands including The Leroy
Savage Group, The Bluegrass Experience, Carolina Lightnin', Tommy Edwards and Friends" as
well as in duos with LaNelle Davis and/or Andrew Marlin or with Jack Lawrence, the former I:<
performance partner of the legendary Doc Watson. He also frequently performs solo where he
features his original compositions. And each year Tommy visits the southern music classes of
Dr. William Ferris where he tells the story of bluegrass music in North Carolina as well as
performs with the bluegrass instruments for the class.
Stan Brown is a legendary North Carolina musician. Learning banjo and guitar as a teen in
Randolph County, Stan helped form the popular "New Grass" group The Wahoo Review while a
student at NCSU in the 1970's. The band was popular at festivals and other music venues
throughout the state and moved to Virginia to work at Busch Gardens where the group include
Grammy winning resonator guitarist, Gene Wooten from Franklinton, NC. After a year or so
Stan moved to Nashville,Tenn. where he had a storied career as a member of Bill Monroe's
Bluegrass Boys, played bass for Grammy winner "Skeeter" Davis, and appeared for five years on
The Grand Old Opry with pioneering female performer Wilma Lee Cooper and her band,The
Clinch Mountain Clan. His recordings with Wilma Lee are some of her best bluegrass efforts.
Tiring of the high pressure life in Nashville and the rigors of life on the road, Brown returned to
North Carolina in the 1990's and began playing banjo with some old friends and their folk band
Molasses Creek, based in Ocracoke.-When The Bluegrass Experience lost their longtime banjoist
Don Beane to cancer, Stan performed with the group at Mr. Beane's funeral and was hired on
the spot to replace him.That was over a decade ago. He has recorded two albums with the
band as well as one with a band in which he and his wife play, The Outliers.This is in addition to
many recordings with a host of singers and players including Grammy winner Jim
Lauderdale, Wilma Lee Cooper, Tommy Edwards and many others.
LaNelle Davis is almost legendary among Triangle area musicians and singers. Known for her
is
p ure country flavored vocals and her exp ert bass playing (she also plays guitar), she has
performed and/or recorded with some of the finest traditional musicians and groups of the past
3 decades. Most notably she was a pivotal member of The Tarheel Hotshots with Margaret
Martin and along with Joe Newberry,Jim Collier and Kenny Jackson was a founding member of
the band Big Medicine which recorded two incredibly well regarded old time music albums. In
demand as a vocal soloist and harmony singer she has graced several recent recording projects
including "Tunes from a Tarheel Town", "Heartbroke and Lonesome" and "The Shelbys". She is
DocuSign Envelope ID: EC417424-B3E6-4014-A465-9859A57DDD04
f?`
a talented writer as well as performer and in addition to her band and recording
accomplishments she is often called upon to sing or play in ensemble performances such as the
Songs from The Circle Album" group which does periodic performances at The ArtsCenter in
Carrboro and has appeared in the stage presentation of Lee Smith's "Devils's Dream".
These three performers are products of their small town roots (Siler City, Coleridge and
Goldsboro) and the folk process of listening and learning from their elders as well as from
recorded music. Their love of the music is undeniable and the enjoyment they have in
performing traditional music is both infectious and affecting.
