Journalist Nancy Smith on Emmy-winning Dallas & Hollywood Legends City of Allen - ACTV 2024-06-17 | During the 1980s, the Dallas landscape was vibrant. Streets were blocked while episodes of the popular television series Dallas were filmed, and the Dallas Arts District was booming. The Adolphus Hotel was being revitalized while high-rise office buildings were popping up around it. Plus, Collin County was experiencing a massive housing boom. The scenery was transformed with lightning speed, and Nancy Smith was reporting on it. If you wanted to know where the stars were—like where Larry Hagman and Victoria Principal were dining—all you needed to do was check Nancy’s columns. “This is the generation that made Dallas an international city,” Smith says, explaining why she chose to write about this decade over any other. “I feel like I’m kind of a cheerleader for the whole generation.”Nancy is the author of Dallas International with J.R. Ewing: History of Real Dallasites in the Spotlight of “Dallas,” Southfork and the 1980’s Gold Rush.In addition to recollections about the ‘Dallas” cast, her interviews with Audrey Hepburn, Robert Goulet, Patricia Neal, Margaret Truman, and Eartha Kitt were mentioned.=============== Download the ACTV App:Roku tinyurl.com/3zf4jv7fAppleTV tinyurl.com/3k8tyc6nAmazon Fire TV tinyurl.com/brnfsuz4CITY INFO =============== City News and Events: http://www.AllenNews.orgWatch ACTV online 24/7: https://ACTV.org Like us: facebook.com/CityofAllen Follow us: instagram.com/cityofallentx Tweet us: twitter.com/CityofAllenTX

Pompeo Coppini’s legacy looms over Texas City of Allen - ACTV 2024-06-10 | From the Alamo to Dallas’s Fair Park, Pompeo Coppini left his monuments across Texas. Discover more about this amazing artist from Dr. Richard B. McCaslin at the Allen Public Library.Born in 1870, Pompeo Coppini grew up in Florence, Italy, where he studied at the Academia di Belle Arte. In 1896, he immigrated to the United States, arriving in New York with $40 in his pocket and no knowledge of English. Coppini found a modicum of success working as an apprentice to established French and American sculptors, but when the artist got wind of an opportunity in Texas, he packed his bags.Coppini arrived in San Antonio just after Thanksgiving in 1901. Dr. McCaslin declares, “a 32-year-old Italian immigrant named Pompeo Coppini arrived in Texas to make a single statue. During the next fifty years, he completed more than two hundred works, dozens of which were public monuments that greatly influenced the way Texans viewed many different people and events in their past.”Coppini later established studios in Chicago and New York, but he ultimately made San Antonio his permanent home, living there until his death in 1957.Former chair of the History Department at the University of North Texas, Dr. McCaslin is the author of “Pompeo Coppini: Defining the Historical Landscape in Texas,” which appeared in The Art of Texas: 250 Years, ed. Ron Tyler (Texas Christian University, 2019). This book won a Publication Award, Center for the Advancement and Study of Early Texas Art, and an Honorable Mention, Non-Fiction Category, Texas Philosophical Society.The library is located at 300 N.

Spanish Textile Artist Teresa Lanceta City of Allen - ACTV 2024-06-04 | Widely recognized for her large-scale and intricately designed tapestries, Teresa Lanceta was recently awarded the Spanish National Prize for Fine Arts, Spain’s highest honor for visual artists. With a Ph.D. in art history, Lanceta has drawn inspiration from Roman and Moroccan weavers, but there are also links to modern abstract art.Lanceta traveled extensively throughout Spain and Morocco to study diverse weaving traditions. She engages with the history of fabrics and domestic labor while also questioning the boundary between “art” and “craft.”Two works titled La Orden de la Banda (The Order of the Band) that are currently at the Meadows may remind many here of Navajo rugs, except that Lanceta’s are more boldly asymmetrical and brilliantly colored than most.Comprising only nine works, two of them pencil-on-paper designs for others, this is the Meadows’ first show devoted to a textile artist. It’s part of an ongoing collaboration with Fundación ARCO, a leading promoter of contemporary Spanish art.Cristina Aldrich is the 2023-2024 Center for Spain in America (CSA) Curatorial Fellow at the Meadows Museum in Dallas, Texas. Her research explores various aspects of Spanish art, including collection history, materials and techniques in the Middle Ages, and the nineteenth-century reception of Islamic Spain (the subject of her forthcoming exhibition). Her dissertation focuses on how polychrome wooden sculptures of the Virgin and Child in Castile and Leon shaped both individual and communal identity in lay and monastic contexts during the twelfth and thirteenth centuries.=============== Download the ACTV App:Roku tinyurl.com/3zf4jv7fAppleTV tinyurl.com/3k8tyc6nAmazon Fire TV tinyurl.com/brnfsuz4CITY INFO =============== City News and Events: http://www.AllenNews.orgWatch ACTV online 24/7: https://ACTV.org Like us: facebook.com/CityofAllen Follow us: instagram.com/cityofallentx Tweet us: twitter.com/CityofAllenTX

Smoke Short Film Screening : May 28 - 7 p.m. City of Allen - ACTV 2024-05-17 | Smoke, a short film drama revealing the story of a firefighter returning home after the most arduous shift of his life, will be screened at the Allen Public Library at 7 p.m. Tuesday, May 28. Allen Fire Chief and executive co-producer Jonathan Boyd will introduce the film and be available for questions after the viewing. The 2023 film was directed Joshua Gallas whose professional work has taken him to Turkey, Nepal, Uganda, Brazil, and Kyrgyzstan. Firefighters confront traumatic events, physical demands, and a challenging work-life balance. Retrieving a deceased victim can lead to PTSD, intense smoke and heat can result in long-term health issues, and lengthy hours and irregular shifts can strain family relationships. Chief Boyd explains, “Smoke encapsulates the balance between the demanding responsibilities of first responders and the difficulties of reconciling the emotional dichotomy between work and the complexities of family life. This portrayal underscores the challenge of empathy bridging the gap between these two worlds, offering a glimpse into the struggle when those who handle crises need help themselves, and the profound impact it has on those we love.” Division Chief Williams who leads the Allen Fire Department’s mental health outreach will also explain the ongoing efforts to improve the resilience of our first responders.Due to licensing restrictions, the program will not be broadcast virtually. Sponsored by the Allen Public Library and Allen Fire Department, this program is free. The library is located at 300 N.

Restored w/ Author Cindy Brinker Simmons City of Allen - ACTV 2024-05-01 | Cindy Brinker Simmons has dedicated her life to serving others. With an emphasis on fighting cancer, she has devoted countless hours providing emotional support to those families impacted by the disease. Cindy will share her story and discuss her new book Restored: Reconnecting Life's Broken Pieces at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, May 9, at the Allen Public Library. The daughter of famed restauranteur and Brinker International founder Norman Brinker and Maureen “Little Mo” Connally Brinker, Cindy has personally confronted loss and grief on multiple occasions. At age 12, her mother died of ovarian cancer. In 1953, Maureen was the first woman to achieve a Grand Slam—winning all four major tournaments (Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon, and US Open) in the same calendar year. In 2019, the Postal Service honored “Little Mo” with a stamp, citing that she was an American treasure and historic sports figure. In 1973, at age 15, Cindy played the world-famous Chris Evert at a tournament named for her mother. She lettered on the University of Virginia’s women’s varsity tennis team and served as captain her senior year. Cindy then transitioned from the tennis courts to the world of public relations, founding her own company, Brinker Communications.In 1980, Cindy established Wipe Out Kids’ Cancer (WOKC), an organization that funds innovative and novel pediatric cancer research projects nationwide.Cindy and her husband Bob Simmons had one son, William. Tragedy struck Cindy’s life again when Bob died of cancer in 2005 when William was only nine years old. Cindy did now allow this heartbreak to hold her mission back and she has molded it into a compassion and empathy for others that is straight from the heart. Can’t be there in person?

Civil War Diary of Captain Francis Asbury Vaughan City of Allen - ACTV 2024-03-21 | During the Civil War, Texans’ opinions about their state seceding from the Union and joining the Confederacy led to deep divisions. This was especially true when Collin County voted against secession. So when Texas seceded to join the Confederacy, Francis Asbury Vaughan from Seguin, Texas, and eleven of his compatriots, elected as a matter of conscience to fight on the side of the Union.Vaughan maintained a detailed diary that documented his perilous journey across Texas, into and through Mexico, by boat to New Orleans, then traveling to Fort Jackson to enlist in the Union Army, and his pursuits during the war. Departing on July 4, 1862, and finally locating the Union Army on October 22, 1862, Vaughan spent the Civil War fighting in Company A, Texas 1st Cavalry Regiment. He was mustered out of the army as a captain in San Antonio on November 4, 1865.
