Cartoon figures peak their heads above windows, ride bicycles and grin unabashedly. But some real-life students haven't been so sunny about the project. Since opening last week, the shelter has been tagged with crass language and doodles drawn with permanent marker. One butterfly, painted by an Arts Kids student named Lucy, has been bent and nearly dislodged from its welded perch. Illustrator Bob Commander designed and created the shelter for kids to paint. "We need to get troubled kids more involved," Command said. "If we came up with a project for the older kids who thought this was stupid, we could turn a negative into a positive." Now, some educators are trying to put just such a positive spin on the discouraging news. Kathy Hunter of the Park City Summit County Arts Council is spearheading a task force to expand exposure and enrollment in art classes The theme for the show is The Ceremony of Weaving, and with featured weaver Elizabeth Clah. Clah is a master weaver known for her creative designs depicting ceremonial themes as well as her use of inventive colors. More than 700 rugs will be displayed and available for sale at the show. In attendance are twenty-five Elders and their families who participate in a variety of popular events including demonstrations of Navajo weaving and culture, special programs for school children, The annual Shiyazi Princess Pageant.

Educators have been disheartened by vandalism at the newly decorated structure. for kids. "We'd love to do whatever we can to prevent [vandalism] from happening," Hunter said. Part of that effort has been to bring artists, educators, nonprofit organizations and advocacy group to the table. Group members are the Kimball Art Center, the Park City Education Foundation, the Park City Museum and Historical Society, Spiro Arts, Arts Kids, the Park City Conservatory and the school district. Organizers are already starting to see results. An after-school pilot arts program that runs for two hours after the final bell rings at McPolin has been wellattended, organizers said, and will be offered for the rest of the school year. The task force plans to pull together a portfolio of arts organizations, internships and pathway programs available for kids from kindergarten to grade 12. More college scholarships and internships are the goal, Hunter said.

STOFKO Of the Record staff Adopt-A-Native-Elder Program 19th Annual Rug Show and Sale DAVID RYDER / PARK RECORD There's been some murmuring on the grapevine for the last few weeks about what was happening with the private club, Celsius. If you've heard actor Danny Masterson bought it and is the new owner of the space, you'd be partially correct - there are actually two more owners. Ryan Heil, one of the managing partners, said Masterson is involved, but can't say much more than that without clearing it with Masterson first. Downstairs, appropriately named for its location, won't officially open to the public until Nov. 21, Heil said. In the meantime, it's hosting posting private parties and preview nights on Fridays and Saturdays. The preview nights aren't closed to the public, Heil said, but the events taking places are usually parties built around some hosted event. Heil said he encourages people to come check it out now, but also to look forward to the grand opening to the public. For now, the downtime gives them time to work out the kinks and train staff members. Also, it allows people to "discover the place on a slower, more organic level," Heil said, as opposed to "everyone trying to file in on one single opening night. For more information about private parties the general manager can be contacted at (435) 729-9049. When designing Downstairs, Heil said they "shied away from a lot of the conventional motifs and design elements that you'll find on Main Street." Instead, they opted to bring an old, classic Hollywood or lounge feel to the space, but still modern and high-end. "We created a space that will be warm, friendly and inviting," Heil said, "but also serve multiple purposes." Of those purposes, live music is high on the list. Heil said Downstairs has the second largest stage on Main Street (Harry O's claims first place) and worldclass sound and lighting systems. He said they wanted to bring entertainment from their resources to the local level for Park City residents to enjoy. Heil said Downstairs is going bring a wide, diverse variation of national and local bands and DJs performing live. He said there are also plans to monthly activities, such as dedicated jazz nights showcasing best talent in Utah. Another idea is to create a rock and roll karaoke night with a rock and roll cover band performing live. Heil said locals will actually be the lead singer of the band and singPlease see Downstairs, C-5 it GRAPHICS COURTESY OF RYAN HEIIL Computer-rendered concept drawings of Downstairs on Main Street. 2FOR1 BILL WHITE RESTAURANT GROUP FALL TO WINTER TRANSITION HOURS* ENTREE CERTIFICATE* 00 WAHSO CLOSED OCTOBER 26TH - DECEMBER 4TH RE-OPENS FRIDAY, DECEMBER 5TH CHIMAYO CLOSES NOVEMBER 9TH - DECEMBER4TH RE-OPENS FRIDAY, DECEMBER 5TH Make your dining easy right after voting on Election Day, Tuesday, Nov 4th at Ghidotti's or Chimayo fN GRAPPA CLOSES NOVEMBER 9TH - DECEMBER 4TH RE-OPENS FRIDAY, DECEMBER 5TH GHIDOTTI'S CLOSES NOVEMBER 27TH - DECEMBER 4TH RE-OPENS FRIDAY, DECEMBER 5TH 'DATES A N D HOURS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE OFFER VALID* AT GHIDOTTI'S, GRAPPA, AND CHIMAYO Saturday -Tuesday, Nov 1 st - 4th, 2008 2 FOR 1 ENTREE* •RECEIVE A COMPLIMENTARY ENTREE WHEN YOU PURCHASE ANOTHER ENTREE OF EQUAL OR GREATER VALUE.
