Funhouse: The Wayne-O-Rama Story - through Dec 31, 2023
Wayne-O-Rama is now
closed! It was open from Nov. 19, 2016 through Sept. 30, 2017.
Designed by Emmy-winning artist Wayne White, it's a funhouse of
Chattanooga history for all ages. Wayne-O-Rama is sponsored by See
Rock City, Inc. and presented by The Shaking Ray Levi Society at the
Tenn Arts space, with generous support from the Benwood Foundation,
the Footprint Foundation, the Lyndhurst Foundation and the McKenzie
Foundation.

The mission of the Shaking Ray Levi Society is to nurture and support
music, film, and performance art that is challenging, non-traditional,
and falls outside the mainstream, in order to help nourish the cultural
growth of Chattanooga.
This is done by sponsoring shows by artists recognized on a national and
international level, supporting original work by area musicians and
filmmakers, and engaging the community through workshops and educational
outreach programs.
"Only in our country are our children not receiving the benefits of the
dynamic energies taking place in our culture and in the heritage of our
culture and so, the work of the Shaking Ray Levi Society in my
opinion is very important because they are seeking to provide
an alternative to the marketplace dynamics." - composer, saxophonist and
MacArthur fellowship recipient Anthony Braxton (video)
"SRLS is a very sound organization that has made a strong contribution
to Chattanooga over the years" - Dr.
Thomas Wolf, WolfBrown

FILM
PRODUCTION INTERNSHIPS: |
| >outreach
SRLS is currently looking for
high school and college students who are interested in participating in
our Film Production Internship program--no prior experience required,
though experience is a plus. Interns will assist in the production of
a large-scale feature-length film that SRLS is set to begin producing
sometime before the end of the year (exact dates of production are not
yet set). This project is funded in part by an Arts Build Communities
Grant from the Tennessee
Arts Commission and Allied
Arts of Greater Chattanooga. Some interns will assist in the building
of sets, others will perform light production duties (such as grip, camera
assistant, etc.).
We are looking to fill approximately
10-15 internship positions for High School students, and perhaps 10 positions
for college students. Interviews of applicants are scheduled to begin
shortly. If you or someone you know might be interested in one of these
internships, please contact Jarrod Whaley via this
form, and be sure to include the word "internships" in the
subject line of your email.
