WINDOWS ON WALDORF: An Interactive Open House at Charlottesville Waldorf School Come experience Waldorf education for yourself!

Please join us for this interactive Open House! Come play in our Kindergarten, be a part of a math circle in the 2nd grade, or a science experiment in the middle school, and much, much more.

Master teachers will guide groups through the artistry of a Waldorf lesson, and you can experience what our students experience every day. Children are welcome and encouraged to attend.

This is a structured event so pre-registration is recommended.

To reserve your space go to: http:// www.cwaldorf.org/visiting.html Date: Saturday, January 13, 2018 Time: 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

Location: Charlottesville Waldorf School The Charlottesville Waldorf School is located at 120 Waldorf School Road, off Rio Road across from Pen Park in Charlottesville, Virginia. CWS offers a curriculum rich in academic, artistic, practical & physical activities in an inclusive & diverse environment. Our educational philosophy, based on Rudolf Steiner’s understanding of child development, cultivates the imagination, intellectual curiosity and social responsibilities of our students.

In 2007, CWS moved onto our LEED compliant fifteen acre campus. CWS reflects our dedication to environmental

awareness, from the designated green spaces to the holding ponds for storm water collection. CWS serves a vibrant student body ages 2 to 8th grade.

VFH Announces Major Funding for “Changing the Narrative” Project, A Multi-Program Initiative to Address Racism and Racial Bias in Virginia Virginia Foundation for the Humanities (VFH) at the University of Virginia has been awarded $899,435 from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation for “Changing the Narrative.” The two-year project aims to broaden and reframe narratives of Virginia’s past by engaging local communities and youth in addressing the present-day challenges of racism and bias. It is part of the Kellogg Foundation’s Truth, Racial Healing & Transformation (TRHT) effort.

“Changing the Narrative” will use the humanities-based tools of story and storytelling to help Virginians create bridges between the past, present, and future to advance racial healing in six key locales: Norfolk, Richmond, Arlington, Harrisonburg, Roanoke, and Charlottesville. These sites span the state’s urban geographical diversity, and several have large populations of schoolaged children meeting requirements for free or reduced meals in school.

Through sharing and exploring diverse stories of Virginia, VFH programs are designed to help Virginians learn about each other, honoring differences, connecting through commonalities, and affirming the humanity we all share.

“Changing the Narrative” will focus this

process on racial healing in particular, through a variety of award-winning VFH programs including the Virginia Center for the Book, BackStory, Encyclopedia Virginia, With Good Reason, and African American Programs. Additionally, VFH will use $100,000 of the funding to provide large grants to local or regional nonprofits in Virginia addressing the topic of racial healing in innovative ways.

Key elements of “Changing the Narrative” include: • Twenty-four author residencies coordinated by the Virginia Center for the Book to bring diverse-background authors to middle-grade and youngadult student audiences in the six designated communities; • Six BackStory podcasts to contextualize contemporary issues of race and representation through the lens of American history, reaching hundreds of thousands of listeners; • Fifteen classroom visits, in three of the designated communities, in which Encyclopedia Virginia will present and explore Google Expeditions and other digital tools for place-based storytelling; • Two summer institutes for up to sixty teachers, selected from the six designated communities, resulting in narrative-changing, community-specific lesson plans for K-12 students; • Up to six VFH grant-funded programs in two cycles of grant giving, in at least three of the designated communities.

• Two workshops and one or more presentations about the project at the 2018 National Humanities Conference in New Orleans, using the K–12 humanities consortium to facilitate similar work by other state humanities councils across the nation.

“Since its founding in 1974, Virginia Foundation for the Humanities has sought to tell more democratized narratives about the history and culture of Virginia,” said VFH executive director Matthew Gibson. “This grant marks a watershed moment in that longstanding commitment, providing robust funding for a multi-year, multi-program, multi-community, and multimedia approach to one of the Commonwealth’s most pressing contemporary challenges.”

“The grant from the Kellogg Foundation will be revolutionary for VFH and the Commonwealth, making great strides in addressing the challenges of racism and bringing healing in Virginia.

There is a significant need in the communities identified and across Virginia to engage audiences in local discussions about race and bias,” said Tucker Lemon, VFH Board chairman. “We plan to leverage this great opportunity by en-

couraging diverse involvement and additional investment in programming like ‘Changing the Narrative’ from our many stakeholders in the years ahead.”

About TRHT: Launched in 2016 by the Kellogg Foundation, Truth, Racial Healing & Transformation (TRHT) is a comprehensive, national and community-based process to plan for and bring about transformational and sustainable change, and to address the historic and contemporary effects of racism. It seeks to unearth and jettison the deeply held, and often unconscious, beliefs created by racism – the main one being the belief in a hierarchy of human value. Learn more at http://HealOurCommunities.org.

About the W.K. Kellogg Foundation: The W.K. Kellogg Foundation (WKKF), founded in 1930 as an independent, private foundation by breakfast cereal pioneer, Will Keith Kellogg, is among the largest philanthropic foundations in the United States. Guided by the belief that all children should have an equal opportunity to thrive, WKKF works with communities to create conditions for vulnerable children so they can realize their full potential in school, work and life. The Kellogg Foundation is based in Battle Creek, Michigan, and works throughout the United States and internationally, as well as with sovereign tribes. Special emphasis is paid to priority places where there are high concentrations of poverty and where children face significant barriers to success.

WKKF priority places in the U.S. are in Michigan, Mississippi, New Mexico and New Orleans; and internationally, are in Mexico and Haiti. For more information, visit www.wkkf.org.

About VFH: The mission of Virginia Foundation for the Humanities (VFH) is to connect people and ideas to explore the human experience and inspire cultural engagement. VFH reaches an estimated annual audience of 23 million through community programs, websites and digital initiatives, grants and fellowships, radio programs and podcasts, the Virginia Folklife Program, and the Virginia Center for the Book.

New Year,

OLD TRADITION

CAAR REAL ESTATE WEEKLY WWW.CAAR.COM

FEATURE

BY KEN WILSON

I

t’s called First Night, but it’s really Last Evening meets First Morning, as we finish off the old year and greet the new one, sober but enthused, entertained and enchanted, and in the company of family and friends. The alcohol-free New Year’s Eve celebration, first held in Boston in 1975, is an international tradition now and has been

hip-hip-hooraying Charlottesville’s Downtown Mall since 1982.

The 36th First Night Virginia, featuring 22 acts and activities, begins at 4:00 p.m. and continues till the last skit is laughed at and the last step is danced—sometime in 2018. The annual First Night Processional, a come-asyou-are parade along the Mall, begins at the Paramount Theater at 6:15 p.m.

The parade ends near The Omni Hotel at a field of bubble wrap. Come ready to STOMP! Music and magic, come-

dy and kids’ activities—here’s a look at some of the fun and festivity First Nighters will enjoy this year.

Lucky Daredevil Thrillshow The Big Top comes to the Paramount at 4:00, 6:30 and 9:00 p.m., as silver-tongued devil Tyler Fyre and darling of danger Thrill Kill Jill of the Lucky Daredevil Thrillshow bring their “fast paced and funny, death-defying daredevil stunt spectacular with all the glitter, glamour, and gut-wrenching

thrills of a Vegas show.” The duo harks back to the early days of Barnum & Bailey on Coney Island when bearded ladies, snake charmers and other sideshow acts drew bathers and their money to the boardwalk.

“Though sideshows’ popularity waned after the early 20th century, a small but steady revival has been growing over the past decade,” Tyler and Jill say. “It started with pop culture’s renewed interest in burlesque (see: Von Teese, Dita) and expanded to include

a host of strange and dangerous acts (see: pretty much everyone on America’s Got Talent).”

thusiasm spurred me to play more solo.

“The events of this summer were particularly challenging for me, and for my friends and colleagues. One of the ways I have worked my way through things is with music. Susan Munson (playing from 9:00 to 9:30 p.m.) and I are old friends, and she has been encouraging me to play more of my songs out as a solo musician. I was really touched when she invited me to perform at First Night this year.”

Eric Jones, Magician Buckingham County native Eric Jones calls himself a “Prestidigitator Armed with Sleight-Of-Hand.” The six syllable P-word means “magician,” and Jones is such a good one that he once fooled Penn and Teller with a trick in which coins appear and vanish from a person’s hands without the magician ever coming near them.

Jones honed his craft in Charlottesville in his 20s, and has performed on The CW Network, Syfy and Comedy Central, at the World Famous Magic Castle in Hollywood, California and for Monday Night Magic, the longest running magic show in New York.

He was a semi-finalist in season 12 of America’s Got Talent. An author and a lecturer as well, Eric has shown some of his pet tricks to many magicians across the country, including those gathered at The World Magic Seminar in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Jones performs his brand of “closeup magic” with the help of a camera man, a projector, and a movie theatre-sized screen. “People can focus on the magic as they would if they were sitting right beside me on stage,” he says. “There is nowhere for the magician to hide anything, but miracles still happen.” He’ll demonstrate his artistry at the Paramount Theater at 5:15, 7:45 and 10:15 p.m.

MIRA Early Music Ensemble English and Flemish-style polyphony as heard in the 15th, 16th and 17th centuries, augmented by gems from the Medieval era, folk songs, and works by more recent, but historically informed composers such as Benjamin Britten—that’s the rich and rare repertoire of MIRA Early Music Ensemble, the Charlottesville-based group founded by Raven Hunter in 2005. MIRA has sung at historic Bruton Parish Church in Williamsburg, the Staunton Music Festival and for the Evensong service at the Washington National Cathedral.

They’ll warm hearts and lift spirits at 5:15 and 7:45 p.m. at First United Methodist Church.

CAAR REAL ESTATE WEEKLY WWW.CAAR.COM

Songwriters Galore It will be blues to bluegrass and everything in between at City Space from 7:00 to 11:00 p.m. as, one by one, eight local singer-songwriters take the stage.

Forrest Swope, who will play from 10:30 till 11:00 p.m., has been performing in and around Charlottesville since the ‘80s. As lead guitarist for The Jolly Llamas, he opened for both Phish and the Dave Matthews Band in the early ‘90s at Trax. More recently, he played in Crystal Rainbow Unicorn Puppies and sat in as a special guest with local favorites Mama Tried, The Cows, and Jam Thicket. As a singer-songwriter Forrest has recorded with Terri Allard, Andy Waldeck, and Kathryn Caine, and will be bringing popular favorites such as “POS Car” to the stage at City Space.

“While many of my friends have played in years past, I have not played First Night before, and I am really excited to be asked to this year,” Swope says. “I went to a musician’s camp this past summer in New York, hosted by the legendary Richard Thompson, along with Shaun Colvin, and came back re-focused on my craft.

Bring your dancin’ shoes for the joyful noise of Zuzu’s Hot 5 in the Omni Ballroom at 6:30, 9:00 and 11:30 p.m. With trumpet, trombone and upright bass, plus banjo, mandolin, guitar, ukulele and the vocal stylings of Susanna Rosen, aka “Zuzu,” the Charlottesville–based group plays New Orleans-style, Prohibition-Era jazz to warm a cold Virginia night: everything from stomps and Dixieland to 19001930 blues and pop. Expect numbers

by Fats Waller, Louis Armstrong, and Bessie Smith.

“We formed in 2012, inspired by the early jazz combos of Fats Waller and the Hot 5 and Hot 7 bands of Louis Armstrong,” Rosen says. “Later trad jazz bands, like The Firehouse 5, and contemporary ones like Tuba Skinny, and Meschiya Lake and the Little Big Horns influence us too.”

“My very first New Year’s Eve gig was on tenor sax, on December 31,1967,” says vocalist and guitar player Pete Vigour. “Sam Green, Brandon Rose, Doug Bethel and I met playing swing music. Everyone in the group plays several different types of music, but none of us had tried the New Orleans Dixieland band thing. So, when I wanted to give that a try, I asked all of these overqualified gents. They’ve been giving me goosebumps ever since. It’s absolutely incredible performing with them.”

“Sloan Manis Real Estate Partners wanted to sponsor this year because they enjoy being part of the community celebration at a time when we need more celebration in our community,” First Night president Drake Van de Castle says. “Aaron Manis and David Sloan both have deep local roots and they want to help add to the special fabric that makes our community so wonderful.”

“A large part of our support comes from the public,” Van de Castle notes.

“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.”

First Night Virginia saw a 10 percent increase in attendance last year and 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. Our first call to get wristbands this year was from a couple in Kansas City coming to the area to see relatives over the holidays who heard good things about our special community celebration.” And then there is

Prepare Now to Profit From 2018’s

Hot Real Estate Market

F

BY CELESTE M. SMUCKER

or home owners who have been waiting for the market to improve—or who have just learned there is a great job waiting in another city, or who have their eye on a terrific floor plan in a brand new subdivision—the good news is that 2018 looks like a great year to sell your house.

After a very active 2017 (the best many agents have experienced in 10 years or more) inventories of homes for sale are depleted and buyers are lined up to see new listings as soon as they come on the market. All of this is great news for sellers, especially those living in popular neighborhoods where homes sell very quickly, some for more than the list price.

Even in a fast-paced market, however, sellers must carefully prepare their homes to get the best price. While this is good advice for any situation, it is especially critical for those selling in direct competition with new construction. Buyers active in the new construction price range appreciate the advantages of moving into a brand

new energy-efficient house, and owners of resale homes must be willing to update and price accordingly to compete effectively.

First Steps Selling your home starts with a careful look around, viewing it as the commodity it is and seeing it from a buyer’s eyes. Begin by walking through the house and noticing all the annoying little items you take for granted, but that will be very noticeable to buyer prospects.

For example, homes that are the most appealing are free of clutter.

Start at the entry and walk through each room removing anything that is not essential. Clear off kitchen counters, remove family photos, your children’s artwork and grocery lists from the refrigerator and organize your cupboards so anyone looking inside (and they will) is impressed by all the storage space. Give the same kind of attention to all of your closets.

As you walk through the house, make a list of small repairs like dings in the woodwork; areas where a child or your favorite cat scraped paint off

the wall; a doorbell that doesn’t work; a kitchen drawer that sticks; a dripping faucet; or bathroom tile that needs to be cleaned and caulked.

Also plan to clean the fingerprints off cabinet fronts and the dust from fan blades.

Your exterior is the buyers’ first impression so make sure it looks its best.

Are hoses neatly coiled and out of sight? Bikes, lawn equipment and trash cans put away? Do decks need power washing and resealing?

When weather permits, add colorful bedding plants to your landscaping and in pots on your deck. A tasteful flag or seasonally appropriate wreath can be nice touches, and, if it needs it, give your front door a new coat of paint.

Call Your Agent Before you do any major repairs— paint interior rooms, take up old carpet, or replace the roof—make an appointment with your agent. They can advise you on the repairs that are critical to complete and suggest staging ideas to make your home show its best.

Your agent will also do a CMA

(Comparative Market Analysis) and recommend the most appropriate list price based on the prices and conditions of your competition—those homes currently on the market—as well as those pending and awaiting closing and those that have sold and closed.

Their knowledge of the condition, amenities, and shortcomings of these other homes is critical and absolutely essential to help you make an informed decision about the right list price.

Ask your agent about the benefits of having your home pre-inspected.

Chances are your buyer will do their own inspection. However, especially if you suspect there could be something major that needs attention—the HVAC is dated, there is moisture under the house, or the roof looks questionable— learning about problems in advance allows you to get several estimates on the cost of repairs and have ample time to complete them. If you wait until after the buyers’ inspection you may be faced with getting the work done quickly under the pressure of meeting the contract closing date, which could end up costing a lot more.

Showings Light, bright and spacious homes look the best, so when agents schedule a showing prepare by opening the drapes, pulling back shower curtains, putting out clean towels and turning on lots of lights.

If your home is well insulated have copies of utility bills available along with your agent’s fliers highlighting the home’s amenities and upgrades (like the new roof or the energy-efficient AC, self-closing skylights or maintenance free siding or deck).

Plan to be away during showings and drop your dog at daycare or take him with you. Be especially sensitive to odors like doggy smell or cat litter.

Your agent can advise you on how to handle these challenges.

They will also suggest how neat and tidy your home should be. For example, Len Mailloux, Associate Broker with BHG Real Estate III, believes that when a home appears lived-in buyers will understand that it is loved while Scott Ward with A. Scott Ward Realty Inc. suggests you continue to live in your house, just “live neater.”

If you are ready to sell in 2018, call your agent today to learn how to get the quickest possible sale at the best price.

They will also help you buy your next one, and if you are moving out of the area, refer you to a top notch agent in the market where you are relocating. n Celeste Smucker is a writer and blogger who lives near Charlottesville.

A DREAM HOME IS GREAT, BUT THE RIGHT ONE IS BETTER. Let an agent who knows guide you.
