It took two years for chef Elliott Moss and chef and restaurateur Meherwan Irani to make Buxton Hall Barbecue happen. It was a slow process, just like their slow-cooking style of barbecue. The long-awaited Buxton Hall Barbecue opened Aug. 28 at 32 Banks Ave., sharing the same building with Catawba Brewing Company and Vortex Doughnuts.

North Carolinians love barbecue, whether it’s the Lexington style of pulled pork shoulder with tomato-based sauce or the Eastern style of barbecue, using the whole hog and vinegar base.

Moss, a native of Florence, South Carolina, said that while working up North, he missed the flavors of the South — especially the whole-hog barbecue of his youth. It’s a slow-cooking style used in many barbecue pits throughout the Eastern part of North Carolina and in South Carolina. He refers to it as “Eastern Carolina style.”

What makes Buxton Hall different than the other area barbecue options is the whole-hog tradition, mixed with Moss’ artistic cooking and recipes.

Moss uses pasture-raised hogs of heritage breeds to give “a good melt-down.”

“I can’t over-emphasize the pigs,” said Irani.

“We cook them low and slow,” Moss said. “They are so juicy.”Buxton Hall has two pits for whole hogs, which are cooked for at least 12

hours, over red and white oak, with a touch of hickory. The wood is sourced from trees already cut down.

Vinegar sauce used for the cooking base is Moss’ recipe, which he’s not ready to disclose. The restaurant serves several sauces to go with the barbecue, including the tomato-based sauce popular in Western North Carolina and the mustard-based sauce loved in South Carolina.

“I recommend people try the barbecue without any sauce on top of it first,” Moss said.

Yes, the barbecue melts in your mouth. Moss has been delighting people with his barbecue this summer — getting folks revved up for Buxton’s opening with a successful collaboration series at Catawba Brewing, Buxton’s South Slope neighbor.

Using all parts of the pig “nose to tail” is also important to Moss.Irani recalled the first time he tasted Moss’ barbecue.“Elliott was so excited that all of the pig was being used,” Irani said. “So he

brought me the tail on a sheet of butcher paper.”

For its most recent critical issues luncheon Leadership Asheville Forum invited Mayor Esther Manheimer, and chairman of the Buncombe County Board of Commissioners, David Gantt, to address the state of the city and county respectively.

The mayor, who spoke first, addressed budget, city/county collaboration, and announced an important legislative update.

She gave a detailed breakdown of from where the city’s revenue comes. Last year legislature took away the ability for cities to collect privilege taxes, but the state still receives them.

“That’s about one and a half million dollars for Asheville, or 1.5 percent of our general fund,” Manheimer said. “We did have to raise property taxes this year by 1.5 cents.” This she said is approximately equivalent to what the city lost in the sale of privilege licenses.

In evidence that the city and county collaborate well where possible, Manheimer said the first joint city/county meeting since she has served on city council went “swimmingly.” She said the city and the county get along especially well in matters of economic development. The state legislature is another matter. North Carolina has an 80/20 formula whereby 80 percent of the local sales tax is captured locally, and 20 percent to be redistributed across the state.

90-year-old Jeanne Jeffrey was born in Hagerstown, Maryland, the eldest of seven children. Her father, an automobile mechanic who had been forced to leave school after the third or fourth grade to support his family, was an episodic alcoholic. Nevertheless, when asked which of her parents had the best influence on her, Jeffrey amends her first impulse to credit her mother, and says instead that her father taught her early on to share with her brothers and sisters.

“I’ve always been a sharer,” she said.Keenly active, Jeanne lives in the fully outfitted ground floor of the

Biltmore Lake home of her daughter Cindy and her son-in-law Mike Krimmelbein. Jeanne loves to cook and eat. She has her garden on one side of the property, Cindy’s is on the other. She attends yoga classes weekly and practices at home. Mystery novels are a favorite diversion. So is learning ikebana—Japanese flower arranging.

Action and kindness are evident themes. Jeanne went into nursing during WWII. After three years of “old school” training, she worked pediatrics at Baltimore City Hospital until Cindy’s birth. Stints in private and industrial nursing followed. At twenty-two she had married her husband, Jeff, when he left the service, and they lived most of their lives in Baltimore, raising three kids, “all of whom married wonderful spouses.”

Jeff worked in the ground services division of Capital Airlines and later in the freight division of United Airlines after the companies merged. The Jeffreys made the most of the airlines’ employee flight privileges, traveling often and far. Jeanne chuckles over her tale of a red-eye trip to Disneyland and Knott’s Berry Farm in Southern California when Cindy was seven. “One night, one day, and one night. The kids had a blast!”

Jeff retired in 1984, and they moved to an apartment in Asheville. Jeanne had taken early retirement, burnt out after nine years of cancer/chemo therapy nursing, a tough, demanding job. Treatment then, as now, was often a brutal, toxic assault on the body. She thinks that today “care has gotten much more sophisticated. And I think the patient, in so many places now, is the center rather than on the periphery. Doctors and nurses realize what [patients] are going through and the support that they need. It took them a long time to come to that consideration.” In the end, cancer took Jeff. “He was sick for several years after we came to Asheville, and CarePartners was very good for him.” Now Jeanne volunteers, helping organize estate sales that benefit the activities of CarePartners.org, particularly their hospice program.

Lessons from living long? “I think everybody’s pretty special. I really do. I think young people today are much more savvy—in a good way—than when we were teenagers. I think the digital age has changed everything. There’s something good that happens all the time, and I think it’s balanced by the evil that’s also taking place.”

Balance. Kindness. Action. A recipe for a good life.

Due to its continued growth, leading local real estate office, Carolina Mountain Sales recently relocated its operation to 10 Brook Street, Suite 235 in Biltmore Village, Asheville, from its previous location at 1555 Hendersonville Road.

ON THE TOWN

In an effort to ensure that everyone has a place to experience the upcoming Jewish High Holy Days, The Chabad House is expanding its synagogue services and programs for the Jewish community of Western North Carolina.

Rosh Hashanah services will be held Sept. 13-15, and Yom Kippur services will be held Sept. 22-23. Each service includes English and Hebrew prayers and songs, an insightful sermon, and a simultaneous children’s and teen program. Services are followed by a holiday luncheon. High Holiday services will be refreshing and easy to follow.

In preparation for Rosh Hashanah, round Challahs and honey cakes can be ordered for pickup by calling the office at 828-505-0746. Lulav and Etrog sets can also be ordered in preparation for the Sukkot holiday. Chabad is now taking

names and Yahrtzeit dates of loved ones who have passed, to be included in Chabad’s Yizkor Memorial book, which will be read during Yizkor prayer services on Yom Kippur.

The period of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur is a time when the Jewish people take on New Year’s resolutions, work to improve their ways, and ask G-d’s blessing for a happy, healthy, and sweet New Year. These actions are completed through prayer in the synagogue, blowing the shofar — a ram’s horn that reminds followers to repent and resolve — and by eating sweet foods such as apple dipped in honey and honey cake, to symbolize a sweet New Year.

“According to tradition, the doors of heaven are open to all at the onset of the New Year,” explains Rabbi Shaya Susskind, Executive Director of the Chabad House. “Chabad’s doors

are open, as well, to the entire community. Regardless of synagogue membership, people’s level of observance, affiliations, knowledge, and background, Chabad will be a home for every Jew during the High Holidays.”

Advanced reservations are necessary. For more information or to reserve a seat, please call the Chabad House at 828-505-0746 or reserve online by visiting www.chabadasheville.org.

The Chabad House of Asheville is dedicated to serving the population of Asheville and Western North Carolina with Ahavat Yisrael — an unconditional love and concern for every individual, regardless of background or affiliation. Its multiple programs provide education and opportunities to promote Jewish awareness, knowledge, and practice, and to experience a shared Jewish heritage.

The restaurant’s sides include mac and cheese, baked beans and seasonal foods using fresh produce — all crafted with Moss’ culinary creativity. Influenced by his Southern roots, Moss makes a pimento cheese log, which he said is a throwback to his mother’s cheese ball.

Moss, the well-known former chef of The Admiral in West Asheville, has developed a large following in the area with his artistic culinary style.

Irani is the owner of the groundbreaking Chai Pani and MG Road in downtown Asheville, as well as restaurants in Georgia. Both men have been nominated for the James Beard Foundation Best Chef Southeast award.

“Elliott and I had run into each other on the cooking circuit,” Irani said. “I had a lot of respect for Elliott when he was chef at The Admiral.”

Moss tried to get a barbeque venture named Buxton Hill going, but when it didn’t go though, Irani contacted Moss.

“Meherwan said, ‘Do you want to come to my Atlanta restaurant and cook for me?,’” Moss recalls.

The men took a road trip and the idea of Buxton Hall Barbecue was born.

It took two years to get to opening day. But, the preview party held Aug. 25 showed that both chefs have a great following in Asheville. Moss fed and delighted 400 people at the party, in two shifts, with two hogs.

Moss had looked at the space at 32 Banks Avenue before. It was an old skating rink, with not much light.

“Every now and then you see a space and have a feeling,” Moss said. “I could see a beautiful, old glorious restaurant here. I had the vision of the Viking halls of old, with meat roasting on the spit.”

The space preserves the feeling of the old skating rink, but has an open kitchen to give guests a direct view of the cooking process. Buxton’s brand manager, Michael Files helped design the space to have “a homey feeling, but very current.” All the details — from T-shirts to the outside sign, with its vintage RC Cola logos — were selected to “help capture a feeling,” Files said.

Buxton Hall Barbecue has a full bar, 10 taps for beer and a slushy machine (which is said to be Irani’s brainchild), making alcoholic beverages such as piña coladas. Kyle Gray Beach, bar manager for Irani’s MG Road, lends creativity to a menu of “non-fussy” drinks. The beer taps will serve Western North Carolina’s craft beer, of course, but there will always be one for old standards, like Miller High Life. Irani wants locals and visitors to find beverages to their taste, even if they haven’t gotten into Asheville’s craft beer scene.

Meherwan and his wife, Molly Irani, are running front-of-the-house operations at Buxton Hall and Moss is using his artistry in the kitchen. Moss plans to add house-made sausages to the food offerings and, possibly, ribs down the line. Carry-out will not start for a few months, while the Iranis and Moss monitor kitchen capacity.

Hours of operation will be 11:30 a.m to 3 p.m., with 5:30 to 10 p.m. added, Tuesday to Sunday; closed Mondays. Call 828-254-4003, ‘Like’ Buxton Hall on Facebook or visit www.buxtonhall.com.

“We look at every customer who walks through the door as a friend,” Meherwan said.

Judging by the enthusiastic guests at the preview party, Buxton Hall Barbecue will have a lot of friends.

“What this legislature proposed, particularly Senator Brown, is to flip that on its head so that 80 percent of the sales tax we generate right here would be redistributed across the state.” She said that would be devastating to Asheville and Buncombe County because we would lose millions in tax dollars generated by tourism. The Asheville Buncombe County Chamber of Commerce has spearheaded a statewide initiative to oppose this legislation.

Short-term rentals are legal in the county, but not the city. Manheimer said she is concerned that if they were made legal it would contribute to the loss of long-term rental housing in Asheville. She said 47.5 percent of our collective housing is already rental property.

Gantt said that in the last five years the county has created over 6,000 new well-paying jobs, with an investment of one billion dollars. “These are people coming in and either expanding or creating new businesses. It’s a boon we probably haven’t seen here since the 1920s when Asheville with its clean water and clean air was the place to go for tubercular patients,” he said.

Gantt listed the services counties are required to provide including minimal public health services, social services, jails & court security, funding for K-12 public school & community college facilities, watershed protection, and solid waste disposal, etc. He then listed what the county elects to provide including libraries, parks & recreational facilities, museums, auditoriums, a civic center, animal control services, zoning, building code enforcement, fire protection, EMS, patrol & investigative services, economic development, and floodplain management. “There are some counties that don’t do any of these things. We believe it’s important, and we should have done them 50 years ago.”

Gantt said 87 percent of the county’s budget is spent on core services, with 34.24 percent on human services, 27.39 on education, and 25.86 on public safety. Buncombe’s tax rate of 60.4 cents, one of the state’s lowest. “As long as we’re doing what we should do that’s fine. At the end of the day, you’ve got to have good schools, good courthouses, and facilities. I think you’ve got to provide what people need and deserve for paying taxes.”

During the Great recession Buncombe County was awarded a AAA bond rating, the highest possible. “That allows us to borrow money at between two and four percent. It helps us get more value when we do go out and borrow money,” he said.

“We’re going to have in Buncombe County the best Family Justice Center in the United States of America. We did it right, and here’s how. The best practice is to put everybody in the same room. Have the district attorney, next to Helpmate (the county’s primary provider of crisis-level services designed specifically for, and offered exclusively to, victims of domestic violence and their children), Mission Health’s testing facility, counselors, and the sheriff all in one room so victims don’t have to repeat themselves so many times,” Gantt said.

“You’ve probably heard how the mental health system in North Carolina is really in a shambles. Were going to have one place for people with mental disabilities and ailments that will direct them to where they can get the level of care they need without overburdening the emergency rooms or some of our mental health facilities,” Gantt said. “That will also open next year.”

Gantt said the county’s program of buying land to preserve it has resulted in the permanent protection of 17 percent of Buncombe County. “That’s between the forests, cities, and conservation easements,” he said. “We can’t buy the land, but what we can do is buy the development rights, so a lot of the farms, ridge tops

and steep slopes will look the same for your great grandchildren as they look right now,” he said.

Hall Fletcher Elementary School principal Dr. Gordon Grant was given LAF’s 2015 Circle of Excellence Award by Jack Anderson for his genuinely outstanding leadership. Grant instituted the MusicWorks program for after school classical music education. “Art and music brings meaning, meaning brings engagement, engagement brings results,” Grant said. “What we have seen already in the 65 kids that are involved is that all of them are reading at grade level.”

The Preservation Society of Asheville and Buncombe County (PSABC) presents an illustrated lecture on western North Carolina’s first highway: the Drovers’ Roads of the early to mid-1800s.

Local historian John Turk will cover a lot of territory and a raucous, messy period of regional history during this September program at Pack Memorial Library.

Soon after the western Carolinas were settled, farming pioneers needed a way to transport livestock eastward to more populated markets. Men, called Drovers, would drive herds of livestock down rough roads from Kentucky and Tennessee via Buncombe County to South Carolina and Georgia.

For decades during

Preservation Society to Host Talk on Trailblazing Turnpikesautumn months, multitudes of hogs, cattle, horses, mules, ducks and turkeys made the journey right through downtown Asheville, which concurrently led to the growth and development of the city and region.

John Turk is professor emeritus at Youngstown State University, Vice President of the Western North Carolina Historical Association, and curator of the Asheville History Center’s exhibit on Drovers’ Roads and the Buncombe Turnpike. This exhibit won a Griffin Award from the PSABC. “At Pack Square today, there’s a bronze pig and turkey on Asheville’s Urban Trail,” said Kieta Osteen-Cochrane, Education Committee Chair. “The real story is of 150,000 hogs traipsing through town

every fall … very messy street scene.” This lecture is scheduled Sept. 26, from 1:30 to 4 p.m., at Lord Auditorium in Pack Memorial Library on Haywood Street.

Generous sponsors include Terry and Ted Van Duyn. PSABC members and all area residents are invited. A $10 donation is suggested.

The North Carolina Arboretum’s widely-popular Savage Gardens traveling exhibit will conclude this Labor Day weekend on September 7, 2015. Over the past three months, nearly 100,000 local residents and out-of-town visitors have explored the nationally-known exhibit and discovered the many wonders of carnivorous plants, including how they lure, catch, kill and digest insects as part of their feeding process. The seasonal exhibit, developed and created by Franklin Park Conservatory and Botanical Gardens and Tork, Inc. offers both real and interpretive plant examples, such as a giant-size sculpture of the Tropical Pitcher Plant (Nepenthes) and the infamous Venus flytrap (Dionaea muscipula).

“We have been extremely pleased with the strong interest and turnout during our Savage Gardens exhibit,” said George Briggs, executive director of The North Carolina Arboretum. “Due to Savage Gardens’ unique educational and interactive elements, it has helped us reach a different group of people who may not have a great knowledge about plants and horticulture but are curious about carnivorous plants like Venus flytraps.”

Savage Gardens is well suited for children and adults and combines science, botany and hands-on activity to demonstrate carnivorous plants’ unique feeding habits. The American Pitcher Plant, for example, offers a narcotic nectar causing intoxicated patrons to take a clumsy tumble into a pool of digestive enzymes. The similar approach of some larger varieties of the Tropical Pitcher Plant has been known to even capture small mammals.

“Carnivorous plants may seem exotic, however, many of them, such as the Venus flytrap, are native to North America, explained Briggs. “Unfortunately, more than 95 percent of the original carnivorous plant habitats along the coastal plain have been destroyed. We hope that Savage Gardens will educate visitors about carnivorous plants and inspire them to help contribute towards their conservation and protection.”

As an addition to the traveling exhibit, the Arboretum has live carnivorous plants on-site in its Baker Exhibit Center Greenhouse. Venus flytrap plants will also be available for purchase at the Arboretum’s Connections Gallery gift shop. The indoor exhibit is open daily from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. inside the Arboretum’s Baker Exhibit Center and its outdoor components are located on the upper-level grounds outside of the Exhibit Center during regular visiting hours. For more information, visit www.ncarboretum.org.

It’s a diverse and highly entertaining line-up with something for everyone.

Admission is free and a 3 oz. sample of beer will be $1.50; 12 oz. beer will be $6. Attendees should bring their government issued ID. No ID means no beer.Bring low chairs or blankets — or lounge on the grass.

Asheville Eye Associates will host the Third Annual Run the Forest 5K and 1 Mile Walk on Saturday, Sept. 26 at 9 a.m. to raise awareness for the importance of organ donation.

Proceeds will benefit LifeShare of the Carolinas, a nonprofit organization that provides organs and tissues for transplantation and helps communities and hospitals through educational and support services in 22 counties in southwestern North Carolina.

Eric Mills, a transplant recipient, understands firsthand the importance of tissue donations. Mills was diagnosed with Fuchs’ corneal dystrophy eight years ago and over time developed a cloudy film over his eye that prevented him from seeing clearly.

Fuchs’ corneal dystrophy cannot be corrected by glasses or contacts; corneal transplant surgery is the only way to restore vision. Mills was able to undergo a transplant at Asheville Eye Associates thanks to a corneal donor, and his eyesight no longer interferes with his ability to perform daily tasks.

Corneas are one of many tissues that can be donated. Most deaths can be considered for potential tissue donation, and one tissue donor can help up to 50 people. An additional eight lives can be saved through organ donation, which becomes possible when a person suffers brain death, an irreversible loss of blood flow to the brain.

But what about the families of organ and tissue donors? When Jeff Atkins lost his daughter in 2008, he and his wife made the decision to donate their daughter’s organs, which saved more than five lives.

In Atkins’ words, “The hope that [this process gave us] has been very helpful in our grieving process, knowing that others have joy in their lives and have their loved ones with them.”

The walk portion of the event, to take place following the 5K run, will honor transplant recipients, donor families, friends and supporters, all of whom are invited to join. Dr. Edward Isbey, III of Asheville Eye Associates is looking forward to this portion of the event, stating, “It is a very humbling experience… Not only do we get to meet the recipient, but we also meet the donor family, who now knows that part of their loved one is being used to help someone else.”

The event will benefit LifeShare public education projects, such as volunteer training or advertising at the DMV, which will help increase organ and tissue donations. Currently 18 people die on a daily basis due to lack of organ donors, and 3,500 people in North Carolina alone are awaiting an organ transplant.

“There’s not enough organ donors out there… to help everybody that needs it… Our medical technology can save so many more people if they have the organs to be able to help these people, ” said Atkins.

Debbie Gibbs, Public Relations Manager at LifeShare of the Carolinas, encourages people to register to donate by visiting www.donatelifenc.org. “

At this website, donors can designate which organs and tissues they would like to donate. Designating your wishes while you are living alleviates the stress your family may experience when deciding whether to donate your organs and tissues after you pass away.”

For more information on how to become an organ donor, call 1-800-932-GIVE(4483) or visit www.lifesharecarolinas.org. Both events start at Carolina Day School, located at 1345 Hendersonville Road. The 5K is USTFA-certified, and prizes will be awarded for each age bracket.

Many people suffer from a vein disorder of the legs that could include varicose veins, skin ulcers, and swelling, itching, aching and cramping of the legs. But according to Toby Cole, MD, interventional radiologist at The Vein Specialists of Carolina Vascular, there could be relief for many. Dr. Cole says you’re a good candidate for vein surgery if:

You have a condition for which a vein procedure is medically necessary—or you’re willing to pay out of pocket for a cosmetic vein procedure. Approximately 80 percent of patients with vein conditions have a form of varicose veins or venous insufficiency that is serious enough to require medical intervention. Procedures include endovenous laser treatment, which uses laser or radiofrequency technology to create beneficial scarring in the veins, sclerotherapy (a chemical injection) and microphlebectomy, a treatment that removes varicose veins through tiny incisions. If you have spider veins that are of cosmetic concern only, be aware that your insurance may not cover a corrective procedure.

You’re willing to follow doctor’s orders. In order to have your procedure covered by insurance, you’ll need to first undergo three months of conservative treatment measures. These include wearing medical-grade compression hose, elevating your feet, getting exercise, avoiding sitting or standing for long periods of time, keeping legs out of hot water and taking an over-the-counter pain reliever. Once you do undergo a vein procedure, you must follow physician instructions

regarding recovery. In particular, you must commit to walking regularly (including the day of your procedure) to prevent blood clots. Overall, however, recovery is simple and most people who undergo a vein procedure are back at work within a couple of days.

You plan ahead. In summer when you’re wearing shorts and swimsuits, you may start noticing the varicose veins in your legs. Your natural instinct is to have them taken care of as soon as possible. According to Dr. Cole, however, you should be thinking about vein procedures well in advance of warm weather. “It takes about five months from the time you see us until you get treated,” he said. “That includes the three months of conservative therapy, and getting on the doctor’s schedule. In addition, when both legs need to be treated, we separate the procedures and perform them four to six weeks apart.” Even if you’re just getting a cosmetic treatment, you’ll be required to stay out of the sun for a period of time beforehand.

An Outpatient ProcedureThe vast majority of vein procedures are performed

in a doctor’s clinic with local anesthesia (numbing agent). A hospital visit requiring general anesthesia is only necessary in rare cases. In addition, recovery from a surgical vein procedure is usually quick, with some patients able to return to work the very next day.

For more information or to schedule an appointment, call The Vein Specialists of Carolina Vascular, an affiliate of Mission Health, at 828-670-8346.

Marthaler Jewelers and Worth New York are excited to present a Giving is Always in Fashion Trunk Show featuring the Fall 2015 Collection from Worth New York, on Tuesday, Sept. 8.

The Show is scheduled from 4-8 p.m. and will take place at Marthaler Jewelers’ store, located at Biltmore Park Town Square. Both businesses will be donating 10 percent of the proceeds generated during the Show to the Genesis Alliance whose mission is to provide a new beginning in breaking the cycle of domestic violence.

Marthaler Jewelers will be featuring a stylist from the popular Temple St. Clair jewelry line. Light food will be prepared by Colorful Palate and wine will be provided by Biltmore Park’s Joni Artisinal Wine. Sidney Powell, local founder of the Genesis Alliance will also be on hand to sell and inscribe copies of her true best-selling book “Licensed to Lie: Exposing Corruption in the Department of Justice,” with 10 percent of the proceeds benefitting the Alliance.

Worth New York has been providing intrinsic value through luxury clothing since 1991. The beautiful clothing is uniquely sold in stylists’ homes throughout the country and it’s these stylists who offer a range of styling options. In partnership with their stylists, Worth New York offers Every Woman Has Worth, a program which facilitates funding to causes targeting women and children throughout the country. Ann Goosmann has been selling Worth New York in Western North Carolina for two years, along with partner Jennifer Akers. Both love the win-win offered by the upcoming event.

Tonya Marthaler is the marketing force behind Marthaler Jewelers where her husband creates beautiful jewelry. They both made the commitment, when the ability to establish Marthaler Jewelers became a reality, to take every opportunity that they could to “pay it forward.” “When I was approached about the opportunity to partner with Worth New York to benefit Genesis Alliance it was an emphatic “yes.” “Selling jewelry is great but helping people will always be more important. The fact that the first can benefit the latter is even better.” Tonya embraces events that can help the community. She feels it makes great business sense and is thrilled that the show will help women who are caught in the terrible cycle of domestic violence.

Genesis Alliance has donated over $250,000 since its beginning in 2004 where it vowed to break the cycle of domestic violence, targeting women and their children.

Breakfast to Kick-off Apple Festival

At the hands of three generations of skillful printers, the presses at Stamperia d’Arte Busato have brought to life the work of scores of artists, producing etchings, engravings and lithographs for the ages. Today, in the northern Italian city of Vicenza, Giancarlo Busato carries on, using much of the same equipment as his father and grandfather, determined to preserve an art that is being displaced by modern technology.

In September and October, BlackBird Frame & Art will host an exhibition honoring the great printing tradition exemplified by Busato and his predecessors. Along with photographs of the print studio, the show will feature contemporary works by two of the talented artists who rely upon the Stamperia d’Arte Busato to produce their prints in this time-honored manner. Graziella Da Gioz and Vico Calabrò present very different styles, subjects and media, but both illustrate the magnificence of the print as art to be collected and enjoyed.

The beauty of a fine art print owes to an intimate collaboration between artist and printer, where the work is hand-produced in small editions, each piece subtly distinguished from the others. Frequently referred to as “original prints”, these are not reproductions but individual works printed from a plate or stone upon which the artist has created an

image. But the making of a fine art print continues with the printer’s mastery of his craft, knowledge of his equipment and materials, and collaboration with the artist to achieve the desired colors, shading and effects.

The two featured artists put a modern face on a traditional medium. Vico Calabrò, born in 1938, is renowned as a fresco artist, but he has worked with Stamperia d’Arte Busato since 1969, achieving an impressive refinement of his prints. His stone lithographs often depict joyful dreamlike figures with an engaging but mysterious narrative, playfully drawn from an Italian Renaissance heritage. Calabrò’s work is equally at home in traditional and contemporary settings, and can be framed in either style. His stone lithographs represent a medium not as commonly used as other printmaking methods, demanding particular skill on the part of both the artist and printer. Busato is one of the rare lithographers still using limestone plates from the Solnhofen quarries of southern Germany.

Graziella Da Gioz, also an accomplished artist, works in pastels, oils and etchings. Her landscapes and marine subjects project a calm but complex place, much of the form derived from shadows and undulations in otherwise smooth surfaces, taking the viewer to a direct and intimate interaction with

the Earth. This exhibit comprises etchings produced at Stamperia d’Arte Busato employing aquatint, drypoint and soft-ground techniques. Graziella Da Gioz is a masterful printmaker whose work stirs an emotional response to the land not unfamiliar to residents of our own mountain region.

This show is as much about the printer/artisan as it is about the artists themselves, and will include photographs of Giancarlo’s printmaking studio, where since 1946 artists have found a dedicated partner. Its history is self-evident in the venerable presses, timeworn tools of the trade and even the walls, bejeweled with framed art from decades of labor. In his own words, “This is a real print house where we live on just this piece of paper. I live on every piece of paper that I lift every day from my printing press.”

Framed and unframed prints will be displayed and for sale throughout September and October. Refreshments - with an Italian flavor, of course — will be served at a casual opening during normal business hours on Saturday, Sept. 5.

BlackBird Frame & Art is a custom framing studio that features fine art prints. The shop is located at 365 Merrimon Ave, ¾ mile north of downtown Asheville. Call 828-225-3117 or visit blackbirdframe.com.

The start of the new school year brings a big sigh of relief for many parents that another summer vacation period has been survived. But the reality is that while the kids may be the ones going back to school, you also have school-related work to do to help ensure a successful school year.

Taking a few positive steps now can help increase the chances for a positive school experience for your children and help minimize the problems, stress and tension that school can sometimes bring, both for you and your kids.

One easy tension and chaos reducer is to institute a little organization into the usual morning, “Mom, I’m late again, I can’t find my shoes, where is my history paper and...!”

The key is to make that organizing happen the night before. Create designated spots where the next day’s school clothes, homework, lunch money, permission slips and whatever else will be needed. All must be gathered pre-bedtime, or there are consequences.

What kind of consequences? That’s part of the negotiation with your child. It might be missing a favorite TV show, or losing game-playing time on the computer, but the two of you should agree on the process and the consequences, and then enforce the penalty if the agreed to actions don’t take place. Remember that the goal isn’t to punish your child, but to teach a little organization to make life easer for the both of you.

This beginning of the school year is also the time to take action to make in-school activities run more smoothly. Get copies of the school calendar so you know when school breaks and vacations are happening. It’s much less stressful to find out now when the kids have off for that teacher training day, than it is to find out about it the night before your big work meeting with the boss.

This is also a great time to contact your school’s counselor. You don’t need to have a problem to talk to the counselor. Instead, schedule an appointment where you can meet him or her, can talk a bit about your child, and can learn what the counselor may have to offer during the school year. A good, early relationship with the school counselor can be a real stress reducer if problems arise (at school or at home) and some help is needed during the school year.

FLAT ROCK — The Flat Rock Playhouse 2015 season will continue with the critically acclaimed Fly, which will run Sept. 10 through Sept. 27 on the Clyde & Nina Allen Mainstage in the village of Flat Rock.

“Fly” is an important and stirring story about the experiences and challenges of the Tuskegee Airmen, the first African American flyers in the U.S. military during World War II. Hailing from Chicago, Harlem, rural Iowa, and the West Indies, each arrive at boot camp with a dream to serve their country as combat fighter pilots, overcoming many obstacles including prejudice along the way. This raw tale of courage and triumph is brought to life through a powerful combination of speech, multi-media, and tap dance as the “Red Tails” achieve great heights of distinguished service and forged brotherhood.

“The Tuskegee Airmen were highly successful as military aviators in World War II. Nearly 1000 young men flew over 1500 combat missions against a determined enemy, receiving praise and respect for their significant accomplishments,” said retired Brigadier General Frank Blazey of Hendersonville. “Despite our country’s attitude toward integration they should be remembered now for their distinguished service to our nation and to those believing that freedom is not free.”

Fly is presented by Mainstage Series Sponsor The Cliffs with BMW of Asheville serving as Opening Night Sponsor. The Executive Producer of Fly is Asheville Regional Airport. The Playhouse has also teamed up with HonorAir as Community Sponsor, the organization responsible for flying over 100,000 WWII veterans to the nation’s capitol to experience their memorial.

“What better place can a World War II story be told than in Henderson County, home to the HonorAir organization,” says Dave Adams of HonorAir. “HonorAir spawned a nationwide consciousness to help WWII veterans get to visit their national memorial in Washington DC. The Tuskegee Airmen were part of the ‘Greatest Generation’ that HonorAir was dedicated to serve. And we know that Flat Rock Playhouse can tell the story.”

“We are so honored to have been one of the first regional theaters granted the rights to produce this exhilarating piece. We are further honored and very proud to have the support and partnership of Jeff Miller and Dave Adams of HonorAir, General Frank Blazey, Tyrone Brandyburg with his wealth of knowledge and experience at Tuskegee and of course our Executive Producers Asheville Regional Airport,” said Flat Rock Playhouse Artistic Director Lisa K. Bryant. “Fly soars to the heart of the pursuit of happiness and equality. Far more than a play about the conflicts of race in the 1940s American military, it is, more importantly, a true story about

Flat Rock Playhouse to present ‘Fly’

overcoming one’s greatest obstacles and challenges with determination, grit, grace, diligence, and team effort. Something to which we, the Playhouse, can certainly relate.”

Flat Rock Playhouse has also enlisted H. Tyrone Brandyburg, Superintendent for the Carl Sandburg Home National Historic Site, as a consultant for this production of Fly. With more than twenty-five years of experience in the National Park Service, Brandyburg’s past assignments include two stints at the Tuskegee Institute National Historic Site in Alabama. “This is an excellent opportunity to honor and education the public on the Tuskegee Airmen,” says Brandyburg. “Through these partnerships, this production of “Fly” at Flat Rock Playhouse will help tell the illustrious story of the men and women who help to make this country special.”

“Asheville Regional Airport is proud to be an executive producer of ‘F’ly,” said Lew Bleiweis, Executive Director of Asheville Regional Airport. “As a longtime partner of both Flat Rock Playhouse and HonorAir, we are pleased to present the history of the Tuskegee Airmen to the theatre-going patrons of Western North Carolina.”

Tickets are $15-40 and can be purchased by calling the Playhouse box office at 828-693-0731, toll-free at 866-732-8008 or online at www.flatrockplayhouse.org.

Christopher Tavernier & John Cobb will be performing their Third Annual World Masterwork Series at the Diana Wortham Theatre at 7 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 4

“A Night at the Opera” is a very rare two-piano fantasy, and is a benefit concert for the Mission Foundation, “Ladies Night Out.”

Emceeing the Benefit Concert is Darcel Grimes, news anchor for WLOS.Ladies Night Out provides free mammograms and health screenings to uninsured and underinsured

women in our community to fight against women’s breast cancer. The last two benefit concerts were a complete sellout. All proceeds from ticket sales are paid directly to the Mission Foundation, “Ladies Night Out”

Operas are stories sung and told with music. Operatic fantasies present the stories condensed and on the piano, but with all the emotions intact. The visuals projected onto suspended screens present elements of the story that belong with the music being played. And for those who like to watch pianists’ hands, there is also a screen over each piano showing the pianist’s hands from above.

Franz Liszt created only two fantasies on popular operas to be played on two pianos. They are lush, beautiful, exciting works, yet they are rarely played, and as far as we know they have never been performed together in public, one right after the other.

That makes this performance an opportunity of a lifetime.Our fantasy begins as Liszt creates the dreams of floating, falling and sweet intoxication. From piano

music, to sacred choral and orchestral music, he leads us into the realm of the two greatest opera fantasies for two pianos ever created. So let the dreams begin. Savor each sensation, and let your darker side give in to the power of the music of “A Night at the Opera.”

Our two pianists have been studying and playing these works in various venues for several years. They have enhanced their knowledge of Liszt’s style and compositional methods by listening, with the scores, to all of Liszt’s 60-plus operatic fantasies written for one piano.

That helps to explain the unique authority and panache that John Cobb and Christopher Tavernier bring to this great music.

To set the stage for operatic opulence, the pianists will start the program by presenting a prelude of flavors, weaving together some of Liszt’s most beautiful and powerful solo piano pieces. They will alternate in memorable performances of keynote works that made Liszt the most famous pianist in the world, ending with the notorious Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2, arranged exclusively for two pianos.

The show will take place at Diana Wortham Theatre, 2 South Pack Square in Asheville. Tickets cost $9.50 and can be purchased by calling 828-257-4530 or visiting http://www.dwtheatre.com/performances/calendar/2015-16-rentals/world-masterwork-series-3rd-annual-benefit-concert.
