he arts are a cause for celebration in our community, and we have much to celebrate in 2019. The Paradise Center for the Arts is grateful for the ongoing support of so many businesses and individuals in our community that allow us to continue to offer a variety of arts programming for our community and region. Through MN State Arts Board and SEMAC grants, we were able to expand our programming in 2018 and will be continuing to expand programming in 2019. We are adding more family-friendly programs, as well as working to make our space more accessible. In 2018 we finished some important renovations, including repairing and installing a new HVAC system and remodeling the basement. These updates will continue to enhance the experience of our guests and patrons, and also make our space more usable for community groups. We are so thankful to the Schmidt Family Foundation, the MN State Arts Board, and the generosity of local community members who are helping to make these updates possible. As we look to 2019, I am struck by a quote from novelist Sarah Dessen: “Music is the great uniter. An incredible force. Something people who differ on everything and anything else can have in common.” I think we could easily insert “Art” as the opening to that quote. Art is the great uniter...art has the power to bring people together, whether it is taking a pottery class that morphs into a weekly pottery group, attending a live children’s theatre performance and cheering those young actors on, listening to music at work and realizing everyone in the office is singing along, going to book club with friends, or sitting in a movie theatre laughing with strangers, art is a part of our daily lives. Art connects us to each other. It helps us see and experience our world and community differently, and it celebrates the creative in all of us. The Paradise Center for the Arts 2019 line-up is overflowing with opportunities to connect, experience and create. It is overflowing with opportunities to unite us! From local favorites to Grammywinning musicians, from student artists to Broadway-style musicals, the Paradise continues to strive to engage our community through the arts. To paraphrase the great Stevie Wonder: Art gives us memories. The longer art exists in our lives, the more memories we get to make. Our 2019 Season is full of memory-making opportunities. Turn the pages to find yours!

The Shaun Johnson Big Band Experience is a rare newcomer to traditional pop... fusing a big band spirit with an inventive edge...at once more risky than Michael Bublé, more modern than Sinatra. Shaun, an Independent Grammy and Emmy award-winning crooner (and lead singer of the internationally known vocal group, Tonic Sol-fa) indelibly stamps vocal jazz and swing with a contemporary punch to the delight of both traditionalists and newcomers - emerging as an original voice in the continuing tradition of the American singer.
