| The 2008 year one program launched with a media event at the Port Chester Middle School including Westchester County Executive Andrew Spano, local government representatives, school officials and area artists. Special guests, award-winning actress Jane Alexander (BIO), former Chairman of the National Endowment for the Arts, and Academy Award-winning movie director Chris Wedge (BIO), creator of the animated films Ice Age and Robots, spoke about their support of NASD. Joining them for the day were 25 area artists. After the kick-off, the artists led special programs for students from grades K-12, and teachers incorporated the arts into academic courses. |
