April 2020 THE BEACON Page 7A Local Guilford Resident is National YoungArts Finalist Meagan Hipsky is an accomplished musician and National YoungArts Foundation finalist. By Laura Keller “You must dream big and dream often. Take risks and see what happens.” This quote by Debasish Mridha reminds us that we will never know what may happen until we take a chance. For one Guilford resident, her dreams and risks have paid off. Meagan Hipsky, a seventeen-year-old senior from Guilford, was recently named a finalist by the National YoungArts Foundation in their 2020 national competition. A child’s interests often align with those of a parent or sibling, which holds true for Meagan. Her mother, Jennifer, earned a scholarship as a voice major at the College Conservatory of Music (CCM) at the University of Cincinnati. Jennifer believes that music is essential in early childhood development and that learning a stringed instrument can be started at a young age. Meagan’s love for music began at age four when she began playing the cello. She attended a Suzuki string program open house and selected the cello because she thought it looked interesting! The National YoungArts Foundation’s mission is to identify the most accomplished young artists in the visual, literary, and performing arts and provides them with creative and professional development opportunities throughout their careers. Each year, approximately seven thousand highly-qualified high school students apply for one of the ten different artistic categories. The process consists of an application and videos of each student performing several high-level pieces. Each submission is evaluated on its own merit in a blind adjudication process composed of several rounds of review. In each round, a national pool comprised of master artists within their respective specialties review and evaluate materials. YoungArts winners compete for cash prizes up to $10,000. They take master classes with notable artists – including Debbie Allen, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Frank Gehry, Wynton Marsalis, José Parlá, Salman Rushdie, Jeanine Tesori and Mickalene Thomas. They become eligible for nomination as a U.S. Presidential Scholar in the Arts. This year, one hundred fifty-three applicants were selected as finalists with only twenty-one applicants in classical music. Meagan was only one of two cellists chosen in the entire country. Finalists were flown to Miami, Florida, in January for an all-expenses-paid week sponsored by YoungArts Foundation. Throughout the week, they had an opportunity to participate in masters classes and workshops with internationally renowned leaders in their respective fields in addition to further adjudication during interviews and auditions for future awards. Each finalist is also given a once in a lifetime opportunity to perform at the New World Center in Miami, a concert hall that is home to the New World Symphony. After spending one week in Miami, Meagan was nominated by YoungArts as a U.S. Presidential Scholar of the Arts. Only sixty students are nominated each year for this prestigious honor. After further adjudication by the Commission on Presidential Scholars, only 20 U.S. Presidential Scholars in the Arts will be selected based on artistic achievement, personal characteristics, and leadership and service activities. Winners will be notified in May. Scholars are invited to Washington, D.C., for several days of recognition. They will meet with government officials, educators, authors, musicians, scientists, and other leaders. Scholars will also have the opportunity to visit museums and monuments in our nation’s capital and attend recitals, receptions, and ceremonies held in their honor. They also have an opportunity to showcase their work in an exhibition and performance at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. Meagan is no stranger to the limelight. She has won numerous local, regional and national competitions the past couple of years, including a silver medal at the Fischoff National Chamber competition in 2019 with her quartet “Eclatante.” Fischoff is the largest and most prestigious chamber music competition in the country. Only 24 groups in a division are selected to compete and go through multiple rounds of competition against accomplished groups from all over the United States. In addition, she has been a member of the Cincinnati Symphony Youth Orchestra Leadership in Law- Explore a Career The Leadership in Law summer internship is being offered June 22-26. The program gives high school students insight into careers in law, law enforcement, and government. During the one-week program, students gain hands-on experience with judges, attorneys, government leaders, and law enforcement professionals. They work with CSI crime scene technology and participate in a mock trial proceeding. The Leadership in Law program was created through the collaborative efforts of the offices of Judge Sally McLaughlin and the Prosecutor for Dearborn and Ohio Counties, Lynn Deddens. It is open to high school students who will be going into their sophomore, junior, or senior year of high school. Students experience firsthand how police officers and prosecutors handle criminal cases. Crime scene investigation is followed by hearings and a mock trial Interested students should contact their guidance office about the program or email Participants in the 2019 Leadership In Law Program in a mock trial.

Meagan’s sister Loxea is also an extremely talented musician. A sophomore at East Central High School, she serves as the principal violist for the CSYO. Meagan has spent the past three to four years studying with the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra (CSO) and University of Cincinnati College Conservatory of Music professor Alan Rafferty as well as Dr. Sarah Kim, a cello professor at Miami University in Oxford, OH. Meagan has also been selected as a member of the 2020 National Youth Orchestra U.S.A. (NYO-USA). She will spend this upcoming summer with the orchestra touring North America and performing concerts at many prestigious venues, including Carnegie Hall in New York City, with some of the top high school-aged classical musicians in the country. Unlike most musicians her age, Meagan’s parents are not professional musicians. But dreaming big and taking risks has paid dividends for Meagan, who plans to become a professional cellist and is currently auditioning with several of the top music conservatories in the United States.
