    The Straube Center in Pen-nington is featuring a collectionof more than 30 works of art fromdifferent artists from the Centerfor Creative Works throughMarch 15.

    The Center for Creative Works,formerly known as the LowerMerion Vocational Training Cen-ter, is a Wynnewood, Pa.-basedcreative day service program

    with a focus on arts and arts-based skill-building, education,in-house generated vocational op-portunities and community in-volvement for people with devel-opmental and/or intellectual dis-abilities, according to DirectorLori Bartol.

    Bartol explained how the pro-gram the Center offers is volun-tary for people with disabilitieswho have a strong interest in art.

    All of our staff members areartists, and the people that workhere are really great and openand look for whatever creative av-enue somebody may be interestedin and then give them coachingand guidance, she said. Iftheres some interest or skill theycan hone that can be a potentialvocational skill for them [partici-pants], then we focus on that.

    Bartol detailed how the Centerhas a range of professional sta-tions, including a six-color screen

    press, a ceramic shop with a largekiln, a painting and drawing stu-dio, a music program and a mediaprogram, so participants have thechoice of working with a varietyof different media.

    The adults [participants] getto work with professional materi-als and learn various techniques;theyre working with some prettyhigh quality stuff, she said. Wetry to build a professional art set-

    ting here.The program, which has been

    around for 30 years, used to be atraditional, sheltered workshopprogram, where people with dis-abilities would get contracts fromorganizations who needed helpwith bulk mailing, labeling jars,things put into bags, and jobs ofthose natures, according to Bar-tol.

    However, around three-and-a-half years ago, Bartol explainedhow the program transformed

    into an arts-based program.Now, our focus, as far as the

    ideology goes, is to have a newlook at people with disabilitiesand the fact that they can be val-ued in our society, she said.Theres a very high degree ofcreativity with the people wework with, so our interest here isto get that creativity out there

    Hopewell Elementary studentsmade blankets for the cold, feed-ers for birds, and notes for U.S.servicemen and women on a re-cent day full of fun and fulfillingservice projects.

    On Jan. 18, the students ob-served Martin Luther Kingsbirthday by taking part in theschools third annual ServiceLearning Day. They started themorning with an assembly wherethey learned about Trentons An-chor House, which serves the

    needs of children in crisis in theMercer County area. The stu-dents then returned to their class-rooms, where they took part inprojects with various local non-profits and charities.

    At Hopewell Elementary, ourstudents, staff and parents re-main committed to service learn-ing which integrates meaningfulcommunity service with instruc-tion, Principal David Friedrich

    said. We thank everyone whomade our third annual Day ofService such a success.

    The daylong event, which wasorganized by PTO volunteersLeslie Kuchinski and CatherineSilva, along with Hopewell Ele-mentary teachers, created proj-ects for each grade level in theschool. Some of these projects in-cluded making pinecone birdfeed-ers under the direction of theStony Brook Millstone WatershedAssociation; crafting fleece blan-

    kets for the East Trenton Center,which provides food, supplies andshelter to those in need; and writ-ing messages to a U.S. troopabroad, pasted on the back of aflag design, to be delivered by theUnited Service Organization(USO).

    Fourth graders made blanketsand get well cards for ColinsKids, a group that will deliverthem to children who are cardiac

    patients at Childrens Hospital ofPhiladelphia and New York Pres-byterian Hospital. Third gradersmade nature boards with the Wa-tershed Association. The boardswill be placed outdoors at the Wa-tershed where animals and plantswill make the boards part of theirhabitat. Students will then go andobserve the boards and theecosystems they have created.

    Finally, fifth graders decoratedbaskets and other crafts to be soldfor the House of Hope in Toms

    River, with proceeds benefittingthose affected by HurricaneSandy.

    Marsh has been nominated for awardsin the following categories TopIndie/Pop/Rock EP/Single, Top Female Vo-calist, Top New Female Act, TopIndie/Pop/Rock Act and Top Female Lis-tening Room Act and is competingagainst more than 10 artists in each catego-ry.

    A 2010 graduate of Hopewell Valley Cen-

    tral High School who is majoring in popu-lar music studies at William Paterson Uni-versity, Marsh has been writing and per-forming since she was 14.

    Hopewell Valley Regional School Dis-tricts programs really allowed me to try

    out music in different senses, she said. Inthe choir at school, I started learning pianothrough my teacher Greg Federico[Hopewell resident]. Then in eighth grade,I got into the School of Rock in Hamilton,where I attended for five years and studied

    musicians like Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelinand The Rolling Stones and started gettinginto different genres of music.

    Although she was first focused on be-coming a jazz vocal singer during her highschool years, Marshs style has trans-formed to jazz/pop/rock/Indie, as shecoins it.

    The first time I heard Adele, I felt thatmy music would have a place a jazzy feelwith pop influences, she said. Its got a

    jazz/pop/Indie feel, but its also pop/rock.It kind of transforms from song to song de-pending what it is, but I would say its

    mostly a pop/Indie style.Along with playing the piano and guitar,

    Marsh also incorporates another instru-ment into her music, the ukulele, whichshe has been playing since her first semes-ter in college.

    I love playing piano, but it has its downsides as far as transportation and I also re-ally wanted to learn a string instrumentlike guitar, she said. When I started ask-ing friends to show me how to play chordson the ukulele and borrow theirs to prac-

    tice, I don't think it was really in an effortto be different, but a way to find anotherroute of musical expression that I hadn'texplored before. It's so vastly different fromthe piano that it really can bring out awhole other side of song writing and inspi-ration.

    Playing the ukulele helps bring anIndie feel, she added.

    Throughout her musical career, Marshhas drawn inspiration from an assortmentof different artists, but her sound and feelhas been compared to some of the worldsmost talented artists such as Jewel, Sarah

    Bareilles and Adele.Her songs cover a variety of subjects,

    but all have one thing in common theyreextracted from Marshs personal experi-

    ences and intimate accounts.A lot of my music is about my

    life and perceptions, she said.Sometimes Ill be writing a songand I wont realize what its aboutin my life until its done its likeIm subconsciously writing.Other times, its about friendsand family emotions. When itcame to my genre, I wanted it to

    reflect my experiences.Although Marsh explainedhow shes written hundreds ofsongs throughout the years, lastMay, she started seriously work-ing on Ready for Takeoff withproducer Chris Badami, owner ofPortrait Recording Studios inPompton Plains.

    Chris really helped me withmy songs, she said. He pro-duced, mixed and engineeredReady for Takeoff.

    The four tracks included on

    Ready for Takeoff Danger-ous Love, Locked in Time,Mans Land and Home pres-ent a perfect snapshot of whatMarshs music is all about, and issomething shes incredibly proud

    of, especially now since shesbeen given the opportunity to

    share it with thousands of otherNew Jerseyans.

    I heard about the JAMAwards and I never thought Ideven get one nomination and tohear I got five was really crazy; itfeels out of this world, she said.Im super appreciative that they[JAM] recognize all of the workIve done and the time Ive takento make it high quality. The bestpart is having people be excitedfor me and knowing theyre excit-

    ed, as well as supporting me. Imso appreciative people even recog-nize what Im doing, but its bet-ter to have people there to cele-brate it with me.

    The 4th Annual JAM Awardswill be held on April 7 at the Jer-sey Shore Arts Center in OceanGrove.

    and teach the greater communityabout the value in our populationand what they do for communitythrough creativity.

    Cliff Ward, one of the teachersat the Center and sculptor atGrounds for Sculpture, securedthe space for the exhibit and ex-plained the importance behindgiving people with mental disabil-ities the chance to exhibit in a

    professional setting.I think it's truly from theheart, he said. They're not in-terested in sales, opinions orbeing in the elite artist group.

    Their art is raw and it's natural. Ithas a strong integrity and intensi-ty and I just think their art is sofull of life. There are no filters.

    They're not looking for fame ormoney or whatever goes alongwith professional art, so I thinkthat's the main gist of what theirart is about.

    It's a lot of color and personal-ity. But what really makes it inter-esting is when you know what thedisability is of each of the indi-viduals who's blind, has DownsSyndrome, is paralyzed, or any ofthose disabilities because Ithink it makes the actual art

    come alive even more so.Bartol echoed Wards com-ments and noted how the pro-gram gives the participants asense of self-advocacy and em-

    powerment, all which come fromexploring their creative outlets.

    Creating their own work andthen the experience of exhibiting

    it and being present at their exhi-bition and being seen as a personwith talent opposed to the label ofsomeone whos disabled is so im-portant, she said. Its a chancefor them to get rid of that labeland be seen as artists, which isan incredible experience forthem.

    The Straube Center is locatedat 1 Straube Center Blvd. in Pen-nington, and is open Mondaythrough Friday from 10 a.m. to 4
