| Editor Michael C. Hansen, Producer Paul Larson, and Director of Photography Daniel McCullum celebrate the NYSBA win of Arts in Exile. |
The New York State Broadcasters Association has honored
Arts in Exile: Tibetan Treasures in Small Town America with an award in
the "Outstanding Documentary" category. Arts producer Paul Larson
produced and wrote the program, with Michael Hansen as editor and Daniel
McCullum as director of photography. The show celebrates Tibetan
culture in the North Country by focusing on a Tibetan arts festival held
in Plattsburgh, New York.
The documentary is one component of the 2015 Festival of Tibetan Arts
& Culture of the Adirondack Coast. The festival, organized in part
by restaurant owners Tenzin and Yangchen Dorjee and SUNY Anthropology
Professor Amy Mountcastle, included performances by the Adirondack Youth
Orchestra, an exhibition at SUNY Plattsburgh, and the creation of a
tile mural led by artist Sue Burdick Young and the Plattsburgh Renewal
Project with support from the Strand Center for the Arts. This festival
was funded, in part, by the New York State Council on the Arts with the
support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature.
