This Educator Guide accompanies Spark video "Anna Halprin: Dance and Performance Arts" produced by KQED. Dance legend Anna Halprin, now in her eighties, has spent more than 50 years challenging the conventions of modern dance. A visionary in the field, she continues to teach, choreograph and perform. In January 2006, she brought a group of dancers to the Jewish Community Center of San Francisco to perform some of her work, including the two well-known pieces "Parades and Changes" and "Intensive Care." Spark follows Halprin as she prepares for the performances and talks about her lifetime as artist, teacher, health advocate and innovator.

This Educator Guide accompanies the KQED Spark segment, "3 for All: Improvisational Theater." In the KQED Spark video segment " 3 for All: Improvisational Theater, " Spark follows 3 For All, taking you into the art of spur-of-the-moment improvisation. The three actors, along with the musical and lighting improvisers, work together to twist audience suggestions into narratives that last anywhere from a few minutes to over an hour. Whereas most actors spend countless hours getting into character, 3 For All live in the "adrenaline shots" of spontaneity. Nothing is rehearsed, nothing is discussed before or during shows, nothing is held over or reworked in future shows -- nothing but pure improvisation.

This Educator Guide accompanies "Making Stencils with Mike Shine" and "In the Studio with Mike Shine" produced by KQED. Mike Shine's interests range from surfing to carnivals, and his dynamic approach to art making manifests as immersive installations, which he's created throughout the Bay Area at local museums, galleries, and even at his home in Bolinas, "The Shine Shack." His artwork is inspired by carnival aesthetics and his own narrative about Dr. Flotsam, a clown character who represents the darker aspects of life, and was inspired by the legend of Faust and the fictional demon, Mephistopheles. Shine has recently been working on large-scale, multi-layered stencils to create murals in the Tenderloin. We paid a visit to the Shine Shack and asked him to give us a primer on stencil-making, and tell us more about his style, and his history of working with stencils, which are one of the most accessible tools for creating a message and spreading it (or spray painting it) widely. When introducing stenciling to students, it's important to initiate a discussion about graffiti, vandalism, and private property. Mike Shine's murals in the Tenderloin neighborhood and in Clarion Alley are commissioned; the owners of the buildings gave permission for him to paint on their walls. While stencils are an important tool for street artists, students need to understand the legality of various forms of street art, and should be reminded to never paint on buildings or in the streets without permission. As with any art form, it is also important to take proper precautions when using materials such as spray paint.

This Educator Guide accompanies the video "In the Gallery with Stephanie Syjcuo" from KQED. In celebration of the Golden Gate Bridgeʹs 75th anniversary, local artist Stephanie Syjuco built an expansive shop in a monochrome palette: the memorable orange hue of the Golden Gate Bridge. Working with the same paint used to keep the bridge looking fresh, Syjucoʹs installation for the International Orange exhibition at Fort Point features all things reddish‐orange: teacups, jewelry, postcards, and tchotchkes. Introduce your students to Stephanie and her project in our video, "In the Studio with Stephanie Syjuco"
