"Thank you for DogStarNYC, in general. The site speaks to so many kinds of interests; it discerns which qualities will appeal to many different tastes in a tremendous number of activities. I love how it encourages young people to pay attention to the unusual.

In New York we let so many teens walk around the periphery, mildly shell-shocked by life, while the information that they need to make sense of their world sits in the center of the room. DogStarNYC welcomes them into the middle of the room; the blog tells them how to walk there." - Stacy L.

FREE! Take a photo journey through the life of jazz legend John Coltrane


Ascension: The Journey of John Coltrane

Thursday, January 14, 2010 through Tuesday, March 2, 2010
FREE!



The Harlem School of the Arts (HSA) and its Visual Arts Department presents Hank Paper’s Ascension: The Journey of John Coltrane, Thursday, January 14, 2010 through Tuesday, March 2, 2010.
The opening reception takes place Thursday, January 21st from 6pm-8pm in the HSA Gathering Space (G-Space).


More than thirty years after Coltrane’s death, Mr. Paper began the task of tracking the musician’s life from birth in North Carolina, through the beginnings of his career in Philadelphia, to his success in New York City. Ascension takes the viewer on a “photographic jazz evocation of a life.”


During Black History Month, Mr. Paper will also host a Saturdays at Noon discussion about his travels documenting Mr. Coltrane’s life and the subsequent exhibition on February 6th.
