Fifth Annual Soup For Seniors In recognition of the Martin Luther King Day of Service, JABA will again hold “Soup for Seniors,” a canned food drive benefiting local, low-income older adults. This marks the fifth time the nonprofit agency has hosted the drive, which will run from Monday, January 6 through Martin Luther King Day on Monday, January 20, 2014. “The winter months can be particularly challenging for those who have difficulty getting around,” says Leanne Probst, Volunteer Coordinator at JABA. “A cupboard stocked with nutritious ready-to-serve canned or packaged foods can be a true life saver. We hold this drive each year to help provide emergency food stores

for the older and at risk population in Charlottesville and throughout the five surrounding counties. It’s remarkable, the need in our own community.” Especially needed are canned meat products such as stew, chicken or ham; shelf-stable milk; no-sugar added canned fruits; dried fruits; lower salt soups and vegetables, and. Monetary donations are always welcome. “We also need volunteers to drop off the collection boxes, distribute flyers and pick up donations at sites in Charlottesville and Albemarle during the drive. There is an opportunity to volunteer sorting the food on Martin Luther King Day of Service, as well.” Donations may be dropped off at specially marked collection boxes at the following locations: • JABA, 674 Hillsdale Drive, Charlottesville • Care Advantage Plus • Branchlands • The Colonnades • The Independence • Jefferson Heights • Our Lady of Peace • Martha Jefferson House • Park View @ South Pantops • The Senior Center, Inc. • Twice Is Nice • Westminster-Canterbury • Woods Edge • Walmart Distribution Center in Zions Crossroads Other sites to be added. Contact JABA’s Volunteer Services for a complete list. All food donations go to the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank’s Charlottesville branch, which supports JABA’s Food Bag program. Monetary donation to support JABA’s Food Bag Program should be made out to JABA, Inc. Mail checks to Soup for Seniors c/o JABA, 674 Hillsdale, Charlottesville, VA 22901.For more information contact Leanne Probst, 434-817-5272, lprobst@ jabacares.org.

PCA Receives Bama Works Fund Grant Piedmont Council for the Arts (PCA) has received a grant from The Bama Works Fund of Dave Matthews Band in the Charlottesville Area Community Foundation (CACF) for a pilot project to provide the Charlottesville/Albemarle community with an interactive and searchable website and mobile-friendly resource for First Fridays events. First Fridays is an informal happening that takes place on the first Friday of each month. Art galleries on Charlottesville’s historic Downtown Mall may choose to host opening receptions for their monthly exhibits on this evening, often staying open late and offering refreshments to the public. However, there is currently no organizing entity

for First Fridays branding or marketing and no centralized source of information about the gallery openings. Thanks to this generous grant, PCA will develop and launch a centralized marketing and information resource for Charlottesville’s monthly First Fridays gallery event in accordance with recommendations made by focus groups and task forces in Create Charlottesville: A Cultural Plan for Charlottesville/Albemarle. This resource will function as a standalone website as well as a mobilefriendly site that will feature an interactive map with all local galleries and businesses involved in First Fridays. By creating a centralized marketing and information website for First Fridays, PCA will provide more visibility and marketing for local galleries and exhibiting artists as well as downtown businesses and restaurants that also benefit from the influx of visitors for the monthly event. For more details about the pilot project, please email sarah@charlottesvillearts.org. To learn more about CreCONTINUED ON PAGE 11

2014 Expected to be a Good Year for

Commercial Real Estate By Celeste M. sMuCker, PhD

a variety of different kinds of commercial properties. “retail is also doing extremely well,” howard said. There is very little retail space available downtown, he continued, and with a few exceptions not much available anywhere else. some good examples of the vibrancy of our local retail market are the num-

The year 2013 was a good one for commercial real estate, one in which the market “picked up tremendously,” said Bill howard with real estate III Commercial Properties. while this was good news, 2014 is expected to be even better as real estate investors are becoming increasingly confident about the marketplace. a recent article in the National Real Estate Investor reports that “commercial real estate investors continue to be bullish.” This is based on results from an annual survey in which 72 percent of respondents said they believed commercial real estate offered favorable returns compared to other investment options. Locally, agents report that the phones are ringing again and business is looking up with activity in all parts of town.

What Drives Commercial Development The residential market has a big impact on commercial activity, and of course, the news there has been very positive lately. The mid-year market report showed both sales and median prices up compared to the same time last year. More people buying homes means increased demand for commercial services impacting everything from office space to retail. a stronger economy means more jobs, which in turn means more money to pay for commercial goods and services. The result has been a growing number of businesses coming in to lease spaces vacated by others that were either forced to down size or go under during the recent recession. another good sign, said hock hockensmith with roy wheeler realty Company, is that we are seeing more startups than we were a year ago, which have been helped along by the easing of financing in recent months. a big consideration for commercial investors is the number of major employers in a particular area since this is an indication of economic stability and a continuing supply of jobs. For example, the north end of town has ngIC, ge and the companies at UVa research Park. These, plus the many other commercial establishments in that area, generate as much as 50 percent of albemarle’s total tax revenues,

which is very attractive to companies looking to locate there, said United Land’s wendell wood. stores like Kohls and the recently opened gander Mountain are examples of businesses locating in this commercially active part of town. wood is negotiating with several other major companies that he expects will soon be joining them.

Commercial Markets Active Across the Board some more good news is that the increased activity in commercial development it is not limited to one sector. Multi-family has been strong for a time and it continues to “lead the come back.” hockensmith said. he explained that a combination of stricter standards in the mortgage market and people losing homes to foreclosure have created an increased demand for rental properties, driving rents up and making multi-family projects enticing to investors. The market for office space has been slower, hockensmith continued, but it too is coming back. downtown is especially active, said howard, and potential tenants will have a tough time finding space to lease. he described the five-story office building near down-

Some good examples of the vibrancy of our local retail market are the number of national chains that continue to move in. town where he has his office. In spite of its size, there is currently no vacancy. More good news is that investors are also starting to buy office space as well as lease it, howard said. he referenced an office building on Linden that he sold recently. hockensmith also has a sale in the works, a downtown location that is a combination retail/office space. although the identity of the tenant is still a closely guarded secret, he explained that this transaction is a good indication that investors are now considering

ber of national chains that continue to move in. For example, Lane Bryant joined dsw, steinmart and homegoods at shoppers world, and new stores continue to open at stonefield, which will soon include Costco. howard said that approvals for Costco are done and plans are moving along. Local news sources reported in september that the Board of supervisors approved plans for Costco to move into phase two of stonefield. soon after that the Planning Commission voted to allow a Costco gas station. wegmans, an upscale grocery chain, is another example of a major retailer moving to our area. Plans for its new home at Fifth street station are still on track, howard said. In Fortune magazine’s 2013 survey of the top100 companies to work for, wegmans ranked fifth, and it is also known for giving back to its community. “we’ve all had a good year here,” howard said about commercial sales in 2013. From all indications, this time next year he’ll be saying 2014 was even n better. Celeste Smucker is a writer, blogger and author. She lives near Charlottesville.

Charlottesville Musicians Band Together For Haiti In time for the holidays, local musicians are coming together to support Project Haiti, and they’re doing it in an innovative way. By releasing one song a day over the course of 9 days, beginning December 20th, bands like Chamomile and Whiskey, Beako, and seven others will put out a free compilation album on County Wide’s website. All they’re asking is for interested listeners to give to Project Haiti, which is an initiative of the United States Green Building Council (USGBC). Project Haiti is building the first LEED certified orphanage in Haiti, replacing an older orphanage that was destroyed in the devastating earthquake of 2010. “We’ve created a morphing compilation titled Make It Be in which artists involved with County Wide will donate a song to support nonprofits every two years” says Founder of County Wide Records, Brian Overby. “As County Wide grows and changes so will the Make It

Be Compilation. For our first venture we’ve chosen to help Project Haiti. They’re in it for the long haul, and so are we. We want to help them do a lot of good.” The innovation in this is that these artists aren’t fundraising in a traditional way. Instead, County Wide is using the Bubuti button, designed by local startup, Bubuti, to help them help Haiti. In the words of Bubuti’s founder, Whit Faulconer, “We think it should be easier for influential people on the Internet to help non-profits, so we’re trying to address that issue. What we hope is that people see the button on County Wide’s site and in supporting Project Haiti, learn that they too can help the nonprofits they care about by incorporating Bubuti into their everyday work.” In the end, the bands just want to use their music to help others. As Koda Kerl from Chamomile and Whiskey remarks, “We’ve put this record together in the hopes that you will donate to this great cause. Though, of course, you can always have it for free.” Got News?

t’s a booze-free blast, an alcohol-free, low-cost community celebration ushering in the new year by partying out the old. The 32nd First Night Virginia takes place on Charlottesville’s Downtown Mall Tuesday, December 31, with nine hours worth of entertainment for the whole family. More than 45,00 people enjoyed First Night last year. This year’s attendees can catch music and magic, theater and dance, comedy and acrobatics – 73 separate performances and activities.

Follow the Red Brick Road First Night Virginia performances begin at 3:00 p.m., but the revelry kicks into higher gear at 5:30 p.m., as merrymakers of all ages parade down the bricks from the nTelos Wireless Pavilion to the Omni in the annual Processional on the Mall.

Magic and Comedy Hypnotist James Munsey and clean comedian Nick Arnette will alternate shows at the Paramount Theater beginning mid-afternoon. Munsey’s fastpaced, high energy show gets him invit-

Music Veteran bebop pianist Hod O’Brien and his vocalist wife Stephanie Nakasian live here but play all over the world. For First Night the couple will be joined by bassist Peter Matthews and drummer Jim Howe plus their “secret weapon,” 19-year-old daughter Veronica, who sings as well. “It will be a fun night,” Nakasian promises. “We’re excited to be doing First Night again after 15 years.” Expect selections from the Great American Songbook, including standards by Gershwin and Porter, plus “a smattering of swinging seasonal tunes.” The swing begins at First United Methodist Church at 7:30 and again at 8:45 p.m. Charlottesville singer-songwriter Blue O’Connell is a Certified Music Practitioner who plays therapeutic music in nursing homes and at the bedsides of UVA hospital patients. Originally from Chicago, O’Connell has been a part of the local acoustic music scene since coming to town in

1989, and was a folk radio announcer for 20 years at WTJU. But what makes her unique is that she’s profoundly deaf, able to hear only because of her cochlear implant and hearing aid. “I was a regular performer at First Night Virginia for seven years beginning in 1989,” O’Connell says. “I am a storyteller and my performances for First Night are geared for the whole family. I encourage the audience to sing along or participate in some way if they wish to.” O’Connell will play a new First Night venue, Old Metropolitan Hall at 101 E Main St, at 6:40 p.m. “Some guys go out and buy fancy cars, some guys play poker,” says Paul Olko of the Beatles cover band Abbey Road. “We play Beatles music together.” A sixth grader when the Fab Four hit the American pop charts in 1964, Olko pleaded with his parents to let him restart the guitar lessons he’d been slacking on. “It was the Beatles that kept my drive, kept me practicing every day,” he says today. When Olko and his friends did learn how to play, it was Beatle songs they played most of all. More than three decades later, Olko realized a lifelong dream when he formed Abbey Road, originally named

#9 Dream, for a Charlottesville Waldorf School fundraiser. Not a look-alike band, though they cultivate a Liverpool vibe, the local lads who play John, Paul, George and Ringo for fans all over the Commonwealth take pride in their musical fidelity. “Our goal was always to do the music really well,” Olko says. “We studied to the point of fanaticism exactly how the record is done. As best we can in a live setting, we try to reproduce that sound.” Today the group’s repertoire spans “Please, Please Me” through “Let It Be,” but on First Night they’ll concentrate on the early catalog, what Olko calls “the dancing Beatles” – the raucous tunes by the lean and hungry Beatles who tore up Hamburg bars and Liverpool’s storied Cavern Club. “People forget that they were a gritty pub band,” Olko says, a band that mixed now classic originals with covers like “Twist and Shout,” “Money,” and “Roll Over Beethoven.” Abbey Road will rock the Omni Ballroom at 10:00 and 11:15 p.m. The screams are up to us. High school students Meg Foster and Cazzie Olko (son of Abbey Road’s Paul Olko) are mature beyond their musical years, reaching back into the past to cover soul, blues, and jazz tunes by everyone from the Beatles to Louis Armstrong, as well as their near contemporary, the late Amy Winehouse. In other words, they have taste. Calling themselves The Broken Glass Conspirators, the duo will play the Christ Church sanctuary at 6:15 and 7:30 p.m. Charlottesville musicians Andy Rowland, Darrell Rose, Greg Howard and William “Whit” Whitten believe that music is the universal language. They’ll come together as World Beat to bring hope, healing, and irresistible rhythm to The Haven Sanctuary at 8:45 and 10:00 pm. The nine Deanes – actually four Deanes, two Kites, and three civilians in the current lineup – have been playing and singing bluegrass gospel music for about 20 years. Larry and Eddie Deane have been picking together since 1983. Central Virginia favorites known for their many benefit performances, they’ll bring mandolin, banjo, dobro, steel guitar and upright bass to the sanctuary of Christ Church at 8:45 and 10:00 p.m.

Notorious Charlottesville Mayor Sam McCue and town miser John Yeargin are two of the suspect subjects of the Albemarle County Historical Society’s popular 30-minute neighborhood tour known as the Spirit Walk. First Night Spirit Walks will commence at 6:30, 7:00, 7:30, and 8:00 p.m. at the Albemarle County Court House.

For Kids and Teens

Film and Theater The folks at Light House Studio are all about helping students express themselves through filmmaking. Light House films have been shown on CNN and honored with a Peabody Award, a Gold World Medal at the New York

International Film and TV Festival, and a CINE Golden Eagle Award. For First Night the studio will screen family friendly, award winning short films including animations, documentaries and music videos produced by students this past year. Showings take place at 121 East Water Street, at 6:15 and 7:30 p.m. The improv comedy troupe Bent Theatre has been busting guts throughout Virginia since 2004, making comedy on the spot from audience suggestions. “Our players have all trained in house and many of them have gone on to teach their own groups and classes,” says Bent Theatre director Andy Davis. “Nothing is scripted, nothing is planned, anything is possible, and everything is hilarious.” Bent Theatre will entertain at 8:45, 10:00, and 11:15 p.m. in Christ Church’s Meade Hall. Ward Hill Lamon was President Abraham Lincoln’s law partner, friend and self-appointed bodyguard. In the one-man play Lincoln’s Bodyguard, Civil War historian Bob O’Connor chronicles their relationship through Lincoln’s days on the 8th Judicial Circuit, the Republican National Convention, the train trip from Springfield to the inauguration in Washington, and the assassination Lamon might have prevented had Lincoln not sent him to Richmond on national business. Performances take place at 6:15 and 7:30 p.m. at Grace Covenant Church.

The ballet The Nutcracker was judged a failure when it premiered in Russia in 1892. Generations of American families have since disagreed. For First Night, the Charlottesville Ballet will present The Nutcracker Suite, a condensed, child-friendly version of the holiday classic, at 3:00 and 4:15 p.m. in Christ Church’s Meade Hall. Since singer-songwriter Paul Reisler founded Kid Pan Alley in 1999, it has inspired 35,000 school kids across the U.S. to write and perform over 2,500 songs. Delbert McClinton, Sissy Spacek, Amy Grant, and Corey Harris are just some of the big name artists who’ve recorded them. Reisler will coax more songs from more children 3:00 and 4:15 p.m. in Old Metropolitan Hall.

The Virginia Discovery Museum at the east end of the Mall is a hands-on children’s museum teaching kids about the arts, sciences, humanities, history, and nature. The museum will host First Night’s Creation Station from 3:00 until 5:00 p.m. Admission for Fist Night wristband holders is free. Charlottesville’s Party Masters hosts events all over Central Virginia. They’ll provide lights and a live DJ for a teen dance party 7:30 through 11:30 p.m. at the Herman Key, Jr. Rec Center.

First Night History and Tradition The first First Night was held in Boston in 1975. Charlottesville was the second city in the country to hold the celebration, in 1982, and will be one of about 70 cities with First Night festivities this year. Often mistaken for a City of Charlottesville event, First Night Virginia is actually a volunteer-driven non-profit that receives less than 2.5 percent of its budget from city coffers, depending upon local sponsors – 43 businesses, organizations and fellow non-profits this year – for the rest. “A large part of our support comes from the public,” First Night president Drake Van de Castle says. “I want to give to a big shout out by name to Cindy Adams. She’s been our treasurer and secretary, and she’s put out a tremendous effort in recent years to turn First Night around. And I certainly want to give a shout out to the City of Charlottesville. They provide police support and facilities – a tremendous amount of resources and manpower. Without their support it would not happen.”

Admission Through December 30, First Night admission wristbands are $15 for adults, $5 for children ages 6-15, and $35 for a family pack (two adult and two children). Children age 5 and younger are admitted free. Same day prices are only slightly higher. “A five dollar admission for a child is pretty hard to be beat for the number of hours,” Van de Castle says. And with a family pack, “If there’s a family of four, they basically get one of their children for free.” Wristbands may be purchased online through December 30, and picked up at First Night Virginia Headquarters in the Omni Hotel Atrium. On December 31, adult tickets are $18.00, children’s are $7.00, and family packs are $43. On the day of the event, wristbands may only be purchased at the Omni. Seats for the Paramount shows may be reserved and guaranteed at the Paramount box office for $5.

Diversity is working. Shouldn’t it also be living?

Parking and Transportation First Night patrons need only show their wristbands to get free parking in the Water Street Parking Garage, the Market Street Parking Garage, or the Water Street Lot on December 31.

First Night Virginia has become a tradition for folks across the Commonwealth and beyond. “We have people who have been every single year,” Van de Castle says. “A family from Philadelphia has been coming for eight straight years.” And then there is the couple that began their first date as First Night volunteers. When they returned to help the next year, they were engaged.
