<\/figure>\n\n\n\nBack in high school I was always interested in the arts and humanities, and I wanted to make sure that I continued to cultivate these passions of mine in college. Unfortunately, during registration day I found that the majority of courses that were interesting to me were already full. So, on a whim I decided to register for FAA 110, a course that not only completed one of my general education requirements but also was held just downstairs in my residential hall. Given only the description “Exploring Arts & Creativity”, I was unsure if I would enjoy this class mainly because I had no idea what it entailed. I had the premonition that FAA 110 would be another art history that was tolerable, but not particularly exciting; fortunately, I was incredibly mistaken. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
When I found out that the main curriculum of FAA 110 required us to watch performances and write about them, I was pleasantly surprised. As a student who was involved in music and theater, I have always enjoyed watching live performances and was extremely eager to see these events on a larger scale. My excitement was not unwarranted; in general, almost every event I went to for FAA 110 was memorable in some shape or form. Certain snapshots of plays or songs by musicians will always be remembered in my mind, along with the emotion that it evoked within me. Here are just a few of these special moments:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Buddy Guy<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Chris Botti <\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Home<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Jazz at Lincoln Center<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Nature of Forgetting<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n FACT Variety Show<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Cultural Night<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Into Her Closet: How to Make a Drag Queen<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Overall, this class gave me the opportunity to experience events that I would never even think of attending. It allowed me to expand my perception of the idea of performance and what constitutes as art. I loved each and every performance, and I can proudly say that through all the singing, dancing, and acting my passion in the arts has been revived. I will forever be grateful to have experienced all these memorable events especially with such a wonderful group of people. <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Written by Danielle Herrera A semester filled with music, dance, performances, and laughter has finally come to an end.
