BYU College of Fine Arts and Communications (CFAC) graduates Paul Winkelman and Caleb Chapman received Star Awards at the 9th annual “Evening of Stars Gala” at the SCERA Center for the Arts this year. This year, 10 awards were given to individuals or groups for their contributions and achievements in the arts. SCERA President and CEO Adam J. Robertson said that these awards go far beyond the SCERA Center itself. “We like having the opportunity to honor those who enrich our lives by their talents, their time, their support and their creativity,” Robertson said. Both Winkelman and Chapman currently work at Utah Valley University. Winkelman said that while it is nice to be recognized for his accomplishments, there is a greater purpose to his art. “The most important thing is that through the arts we touch and change lives, whether that be as an audience member or the performer,” Winkelman said. “I am so honored and touched to receive this award.” Winkelman received degrees in Theatre Arts Education and Theatre and Media Arts from the CFAC, and is best known for his choreography work on the 2002 Winter Olympics and in the movie “High School Musical 3.” Currently, he directs UVU’s Ballroom Dance Company. Chapman received a degree in music in 2002 and is currently the director of UVU’s Sonic Exchange, an ensemble that blends indie, soul and pop music. He is also a finalist for the first ever Grammy Music Educator Award, which will be presented later this year.
