We are honored that this program is under the direction of Callanwolde’s Director of Recording Phil Tan, a three-time Grammy Award-winning sound engineer, who has generously donated his time and resources to help create this new endeavor at Callanwolde. Atlanta is one of the top ten music recording cities in the nation, yet there has been a lack of music and recording educational programs and studios – until now. Callanwolde’s Music Recording Program is a curriculum of classes designed by Phil Tan to provide lowcost training that will be a great start to those interested in learning the art of recording. The Phil Tan curriculum includes Introduction to Music Technology, a three-part course. Upon completion of all three parts with a passing grade, students will earn the Phil Tan Music Recording Certificate which can be an aid for students to gain acceptance into college music recording programs and in some cases, earn college credit or get professional studio internships. This is a great opportunity for people of all ages – including teens – who are interested in learning about recording and mixing and possibly aspire to work in the music business. Currently housed our music building, we have workstations for up eight students in each class, affording everyone personal attention from our expert faculty, coordinated by Phil Tan. Please see our website for faculty biographies. Phil Tan Phil Tan, soft-spoken and the measure of calm, is one of the most respected and highly-awarded professionals in his field. Phil began his career at the age of 18, when, with little music experience (just some childhood piano lessons), he decided to focus on music post-high school. He was accepted to the prestigious Berklee School of Music in Boston, MA but he could not afford it. Instead, he chose Full Sail University in Florida and upon graduation, landed an internship here in Atlanta, which eventually led him to recording and mixing work with JD (Jermaine Dupri), a friendship and close working relationship that continues to this day. Phil Tan is a 3-time Grammy award recipient whose credits include bestsellers by Rihanna, Mariah Carey, Ne-Yo, Ludacris, Usher, Katy Perry, Janelle Monae and more. Phil’s work over the past 23 plus years accounts for over 300 million albums and singles sold here in the United States with an economic impact of well over a billion dollars. We are excited and honored to have Phil Tan join the Callanwolde team to bring this new program to Metro Atlanta.

Beginning/Intermediate Jewelry & Metalsmithing Staci Fortes, Jewelry Student I moved to Georgia in 1995 to pursue an education in fashion design, but after I obtained my degree, I accepted a full time job outside of my field to support myself. Thirteen years later, I found myself in a rut. I realized my passion had become a dream rather than reality. I knew at that point I had to make a life changing decision. Coincidently, my department was relocating to another state, so I saw this as the opportunity to pursue my passion and start my own jewelry business. I began making beaded jewelry using prefabricated materials. I looked into jewelry making courses to improve my technique, and I discovered that Callanwolde offered silversmithing classes. From my very first session with jewelry teacher/artist Priscilla Fritsch, I knew I had found my niche. I began investing my time and resources into learning the skills necessary to create my own custom jewelry designs. A year and half later, I am well on my way to establishing myself as a jewelry designer/metalsmith, and am owner of Kno-mi Designs Inc. —Staci Fortes This course offers the basics in jewelry design and fabrication.

Disseminate: Paintings by Kellie Romany March 13 – May 8, 2015 Opening reception: Friday, March 13, 7-9 PM Free for Callanwolde members General admission: $5 Gallery Hours Monday - Friday, 10 AM - 8 PM Saturday 10 AM - 3 PM www.kellieromany.com KELLIE ROMANY is a painter. Her works are elemental, corporal, and free from artificiality in both color and form. The auras, color, bleeds, clots, rings, and rippling waveforms in her work recall bodily forms, natural phenomena, and race. Passage Oil on Canvas 46” X 46”, 2014 Romany’s approach to painting is as physical and bare as her work: she manipulates the tint with her hands, watching for rather than forcing reactions. When working on a large scale she rushes from one end of the canvas to the next, catching and re-distributing the movement and placement of color to build layers over time. Fragments of thought from her family, news that engages femininity, and sincere curiosity about how to comprehend all the inherent contradictions of her experience inform Romany’s painting. Romany received a Masters of Fine Arts in Painting from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2011 and a Bachelors of Fine Arts from the Maryland Institute College of Art in 2008. Romany has exhibited both nationally and internationally, including Stan McCollum Gallery in Atlanta, Sullivan Galleries in Chicago, Parade Ground Gallery in New York, Amel Bourouina Gallery in Berlin, Germany, and Minninger Gallery in Cologne, Germany.
