The Altadena ARTBreak 2010 Community Arts Festival, sponsored by the Altadena Arts Council (TAAC), with support from Los Angeles County Parks and Recreation Department, is in its countdown phase for a Saturday, June 12 opening at Farnsworth Park.

promises to showcase an impressive menu of visual and performing arts talent
representing public, private and charter schools.
The event will offer a full day of entertainment consisting of a wide array of creative young talent, including five of the area’s top jazz bands, representing such schools John Muir High School, Pasadena High School, Eliot Middle School and South Pasadena High School, as well as the ARTBreak All-Star Band and The TRACS, an exciting young rock band of 11-14 year olds that already has appearances at a number of highly regarded music festivals, including the Eagle Rock Music Festival, under their belts. Then, there is the John Muir High School Choir, Altadena Children’s Choir, the Pasadena Rosebud Academy Poets, Sue Bee Dance Ensemble, Mexica Folklorico, Odyssey Charter School Dramatists, guitarist Kareem Ali, vocalist Brittany Anderson, classical pianist and ACT-SO Gold Medalist Quran Shaheed, pianist Mia Barinaga, and the Aveson Music Club Marimbas and Harmonicas.
All of this will be complimented by a great concert by longtime supporters of ARTBreak, the Crown City Chamber Orchestra performing works by Von Suppe and Rossini; a terrific selection of artworks from the School District’s “No Boundaries” Exhibit; dance; drama; numerous workshops, hands-on/take home projects; the Magic of Maseo; food and refreshments; prizes and more.
