SUMMARY:Lesson: Balboa Taster with Dance Champs Minn Vo & Lily Matini
DESCRIPTION:[Due to weather\, this event has been relocated to the Art Deco Welcome Center\, 1001 Ocean Drive]\nGet a taster and history of Balboa with Dance Champions Minn Vo & Lily Matini!\nNo partner required!\nABOUT YOUR TEACHERS \n\n\n\n \nMINN VO \n\n\n \nLILY MATINI \n\n\n\n\nABOUT THE DANCE STYLE \nBalboa\, also known as “Bal” is a swing dance that originated in Southern California during the 1920s and enjoyed huge popularity during the 1930s and 1940s. An 8-count danced in closed position\, the earliest form (often called “Pure Balboa”) evolved in the mostly conservative dance halls of southern California where space was limited and strict codes of conduct were enforced. These dance halls usually prohibited the wild kicks of the Charleston and Lindy Hop. Pure Balboa is characterized by an upright posture with partners standing chest to chest. Step variations generally play with the rhythm or look and feel (style) from below the knee downwards and deal with changes in direction. Balboa is frequently danced to fast jazz (usually anything from 180 to 320 BPM)\, though many like a slower (170-190 BPM) tempo. While most dancers differentiate between pure Balboa and Bal-Swing\, both are considered to be a part of the dance. Bal-Swing evolved from Balboa when original Balboa dancers experimented with fancier variations of the dance which forced the chest to chest connection to be broken. In this form of Balboa a variety of spins\, turns\, dips\, tricks\, and even air steps are introduced.1\n[1 Wikipedia] \n \n\n* In addition to this class\, don’t miss the mini-lessons and entertainment between jazz band breaks! \n\nThe lesson will be held at the Jazz Age Stage on Lummus Park & 12th Street from 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm

SUMMARY:From The Industrial Revolution to Art Deco—Connecting The Dots
DESCRIPTION:Featured Speaker: Joel Levine \nThe Industrial Revolution caused significant social changes to information processing and worker housing\, creating a need for new types of buildings. These needs were met by the new technologies of industrialization\, steel\, and reinforced concrete. Architects experimenting with these materials went on to create Art Deco and other innovative styles of architecture. \nThis presentation will explain the link between the disruptive social changes of the Industrial Revolution\, the technology provided by the Industrial Revolution\, and the creation of the Art Deco style. \nJoel Levine has collected radios for several decades\, focusing on the moderne styles of the 1930s and MiMo-inspired designs of the 1950s.  He has been an MDPL tour guide for ten years and has presented lectures at MDPL\, Art Deco Week in Napier New Zealand\, the African Association in Mauritius\, the Tel Aviv Art Deco Center\, Art Deco Society of the Palm Beaches\, and several condominium associations. He has served on the Board of Directors of MDPL since 2017 in various capacities and is the current Chair of the Board.

SUMMARY:Flooding in Florida: The Bellwether of Climate Change
DESCRIPTION:The goals of historic preservation are often at odds with efforts to protect properties from climate change. While preservation encourages maintaining a property’s historic appearance\, climate change adaptation often requires change\, sometimes radical change\, to maintain the safety of a building and its occupants. \nAs the impacts of flooding and intense storms are increasing in prevalence\, property owners and communities are trying to balance their desire to increase resiliency in their communities\, while maintaining their historic character and sense of place. Property owners seek options to improve resilience in response to parcel vulnerability. At a community level\, municipalities are developing policies\, programs\, and requirements to address vulnerability on a larger scale\, often without considering the impacts on historic resources. \nTo specifically address the impacts of severe storms on the state’s historic resources\, Florida’s Division of Historical Resources\, the SHPO\, sought to prepare three guidance documents to address the impacts of severe storms. Going beyond a regulatory review\, the guidance relied heavily on information gained through site visits in in-person interviews with eighteen small to mid-sized communities across the state. The site visits provided a first-hand opportunity to document prior storm damage\, recovery efforts\, and vulnerability as well as the implementation of community-wide and property specific resiliency measures. The information gained during the site visits was compiled to serve as a reference for similar communities. The resulting guidance documents provide a holistic approach for three separate audiences: property owners\, municipalities\, and state agencies. They described flood and wind mitigation vulnerability and resiliency measures for historic buildings and archaeological sites\, and include an analysis of severe storms on tourism\, a key state industry. \nThe presentation will review the challenges of addressing flood and wind vulnerability across a wide geographic area. It will include a breakdown of the roles\, responsibilities\, and regulatory requirements of the owner\, federal\, state\, and local governments when addressing the mitigation of historic properties. \n  \nAbout the Speakers \nDominique M. Hawkins\, the founding principal of Preservation Design Partnership [PDP]\, was one of two individuals to complete dual Master’s Degrees in Architecture and Historic Preservation at the University of Pennsylvania. After completing her degrees in 1992\, she apprenticed with two of the most respected preservation firms in the Mid-Atlantic Region and served as a Preservation Specialist with the New Jersey Historic Preservation Office. In 1995\, Dominique established Preservation Design Partnership [PDP] as a planning and design practice focusing exclusively on offering high-quality professional services for clients with nationally – significant historic sites and buildings. \nDominique’s nationally recognized and pioneering work in the understanding of the regulatory review process has been the foundation for preparing Design Guidelines for historic communities and districts throughout the country. Some examples are the 19 Historic Districts of New Orleans\, including the Vieux Carre [a.k.a. the French Quarter]\, a National Historic Landmark; Newton\, Massachusetts\, containing over thirty National Historic Districts; Oak Park\, Illinois\, listed on the National Register of Historic Places\, and Ft. Lauderdale\, Florida\, to name a few. Through this work\, Dominique has developed unique collaborative and public education skills in working with client groups\, stakeholders\, community leaders\, and the public in shaping projects\, achieving consensus\, and reaching conclusions in an effective manner. \nShe has authored the Flood Mitigation Guide: Maryland’s Historic Properties; Flood Mitigation Guide for Historic Properties and Elevation Design Guidelines for Historic Properties for the NJ Historic Preservation Office and the Historic Preservation Master Plan and Flood Mitigation Guidance for the City of St. Augustine\, Florida. She recently completed the Storm Guidance resource for Florida’s Division of Historical Resources which developed flood and storm mitigation guidance for property owners\, local governments\, and state entities. She is currently working with the community in Charleston to identify equitable resilience strategies. Her work has been recognized with several preservation and design awards. \nJennifer M. Wolfe\, AICP is a Preservation Planning Specialist with Preservation Design Partnership\, a heritage planning and architectural firm based in Philadelphia. Her previous work as the Historic Preservation Officer in St. Augustine included confronting the impacts of hurricanes and nuisance flooding with vulnerability studies and adaptation analysis. With PDP\, she worked on a statewide storm guidance document for all audiences and continues to engage other communities in similar challenges. Jennifer is Past President of the Board for the Florida Trust for Historic Preservation and a graduate of the University of Florida’s architectural preservation program.

SUMMARY:What in the World?! How Walt Created Disney World
DESCRIPTION:When Walt Disney realized cheap tourist traps were enveloping Disneyland\, he began a nationwide search for enough land to hold every dream he could imagine. What happened next would require a heightened degree of CIA-level secrecy for Disney’s undercover team\, which launched a misinformation campaign that included dummy corporations and secret transactions. However\, when a keen-eyed reporter cracked the code\, Disney was forced to show his hand. Audiences will be amazed to learn of subterfuge\, monumental innovations and engineering feats required to create a whole new world. \n  \nAbout the Speaker \nGary McKechnie is a member of the Florida Humanities Speakers Bureau\, with presentations including this talk as well as ‘Sunshine State Soundtrack’ (a round-up of famous Florida-born musicians). McKechnie is a former stand-up comedian improv actor\, and author of the nation’s best-selling motorcycle guidebook\, Great American Motorcycle Tours\, and a two-time National Geographic author (USA 101 and Ten Best of Everything: National Parks). \nMcKechnie has written for Walt Disney World\, Fodor’s travel guides\, Rand McNally\, AOL\, People\, National Geographic Traveler\, the Washington Post\, Harley-Davidson\, Orlando magazine\, Florida magazine\, Chicago Tribune\, Atlanta Constitution\, Orlando Sentinel\, Miami Herald\, and United Airlines’ Hemispheres. \nAdditionally\, he is a two-time winner of the Lowell Thomas Travel Journalism Award\, a member of the Society of America Travel Writers\, and covered back road destinations throughout the state as Visit Florida’s ‘Off the Beaten Path’ Insider. In 2014 he was selected by the Motorcycle Industry Council to appear as on-camera talent and chronicle the Cannon Ball Centennial Ride\, a 3\,450-mile cross-country motorcycle expedition. \nTogether with his wife\, Nancy Howell\, he owned and operated Mount Dora’s Coconut Cottage Inn from 2000-2018 and also teamed up to write ‘A Brief History of Mount Dora’ for the History Press. At sea\, he lectures on American travel\, culture\, and music aboard the Queen Mary 2\, Queen Victoria\, Queen Elizabeth\, and the ships of Seabourn and Silversea. As a community activist\, he initiated the drive to renovate the Mount Dora Community Building and created a 501(c)3 non-profit Mount Dora Community Building Foundation to aid in its operation. He also formed the non-profit Mabel Norris Reese Tribute Fund\, Inc. which was successful in crowd-sourcing the funds to create a monument to the courageous editor of the Mount Dora Topic who faced repeated death threats for her defense of civil rights during the 1950s. \nIn 2018 he ran as the Democratic candidate for Florida State Senate\, District 12. Most recently\, he initiated the successful drive to honor Desi Arnaz with a Florida Historic Marker which is scheduled to be unveiled in late 2023.
