ou’ve had your shots, and you’ve had enough. Enough doom and Zoom, enough quarantine pods and pandemic therapy baking. Country and Commonwealth are opening back up, and the rising cost of gas is more than offset by the money you’ve saved buying so little of it for 15 months. Where to go? “I’m happy to be here this evening,” runs the old joke. “At my age, I’m happy to be anywhere!” After a long season of travel bans and closures, a trip to France is an affordable feast (cost of wine not included), but even a day trip ‘round the great state of Virginia is a mouth-
watering meal. Think foie gras, sure—but think ham biscuits first. The State Fair of Virginia (September 24 through October 3 in Doswell), where the downhome food is always a draw, is still a ways off. But our part of the state has a fair number of other events and attractions in the meantime. What follows is a tempting sampler.

Tickets are now on sale for the Shenandoah Music Festival on the grounds of the Shrine Mont retreat center in Orkney Springs. Nine weekend concerts will run from late July through early September.

Woodlawn’s Historic Homes: One Mansion and One Curiosity History lovers and architecture aficionados flock to the one hundred and twenty-six bucolic acres in Alexandria to see two iconic properties: the early 19th century Woodlawn Mansion, commissioned by George Washington, and the Pope-Leighey House, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in 1940. Also on site is a working, sustainable agriculture farm. Originally part of Washington’s own estate, Woodlawn Mansion was built as a wedding gift for Washington’s stepgranddaughter, Nelly Parke Custis, and her husband Lawrence Lewis. The couple operated the then 2,000-acre estate as a plantation, worked by approximately

90 enslaved women, men, and children. Nelly inherited 155 enslaved people as wedding gifts from her grandmother and mother’s estates after their deaths. Woodlawn is currently investigating the history of slavery on the property, uncovering and sharing stories of the people who helped build and maintain it. During the 1930s, Frank Lloyd Wright began designing simple, stylish residences affordable to the middle-class. Wright built more than 100 of these modest homes, which he referred to as Usonian—for “the United States of North America”—between 1936 and his death in 1959. A Falls Church journalist named Loren Pope commissioned a Usonian house in 1939 and sold it to Robert and Marjorie Leighey in 1946. When the expansion of Highway 66 put the home in

Richmond’s historic Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden covers more than 50 acres of spectacular gardens, dining, and shopping. Its dozen-plus themed plots include a Children’s Garden, Rose Garden, Asian Valley and Cherry Tree Walk.
Its classical domed Conservatory is the only one of its kind in the mid-Atlantic. With its world-class botanical displays and attractions for all ages and interests, Ginter is a family-friendly oasis, and perfect place to learn more about plants and horticulture, or just relax and marvel at nature. All that marveling takes energy. The Robins Tea House replenishes get-upand-go with sandwiches like grilled salmon, grilled chicken caprese, and Green Goddess chickpea mash, along with other yummies. Lewis Ginter offers classes for every skill level, from basic how-to instruction to refresher tips for more experienced students. Most classes are currently conducted via Zoom. One such class is Monarch Butterfly: Biology and Conservation on Monday, June 21 from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m., which addresses the challenge posed by the decline of Monarch population levels over the last 20 years. Instructor Oberhauser, Director of the University of WisconsinMadison Arboretum, will talk about the biology of migratory monarchs, and how citizens and scientists are documenting monarch numbers across their migratory cycle, and working to preserve this charismatic insect for generations to come. Participants in the Naturalistic Design class, on the Ginter’s grounds Saturday, June 19 from 9:00 to 10:30 a.m. will learn how to create cheery, naturalistic designs to brighten their homes inside or out. All floral materials will be provided. This will be a socially distanced outdoors

danger, Mrs. Leighey gave the property to the National Trust, which relocated it to nearby Woodlawn and granted her lifetime tenancy. Mrs. Leighey occupied the house at Woodlawn until her death in 1983. Only 1,200 square feet in total, the Pope-Leighey house seems much larger, with distinct features characteristic of Wright’s unique vision and style, including cantilevered roofs, and windows that open out rather than in, allowing in plenty of sunlight, and creating a feeling of spaciousness and a strong sense of interaction with the surrounding landscape. Also on site, Arcadia Farm for Sustainable Agriculture aims to create a more equitable and sustainable local food system. Visitors will find both activities and trails “for learning, wellbeing, respite, and enjoyment of the natural environment and its history.” Pope-Leighey House Outside-In Tours must be purchased online through June. Woodlawn is scheduled to reopen in July.
Frontier Culture Museum
CAAR REAL ESTATE WEEKLY WWW.CAAR.COM
FEATURE
Frontier Museum Staunton’s Frontier Culture Museum of Virginia tells the story of thousands of America’s first pioneers—men, women and children who migrated here in the 1600 and 1700s from communities in the hinterlands of England, Germany, Ireland, and West Africa. Many were farmers and rural craftsmen fleeing difficult circumstances and trying conditions and drawn by the hope of a better life. Others were brought as captives to work on farms and plantations. Regardless of the how they arrived, their work contributed to the success of the colonies and the country. The Frontier Culture Museum is open seven days a week. Self-guided tours down walking paths and trails allow guests to visit the 11 permanent exhibits covering both the Old World and the New. Costumed interpreters present “living history” along the way. The Museum recommends allowing 3-4 hours to see everything by foot. On June 19 the museum will celebrate Juneteenth. On July 4 it will observe Independence Day. Bluegrass and other roots music will be heard each Saturday in August. Looking ahead, the weather should be cooler for German Heritage Weekend, October 2-3 and Native American Heritage Weekend, November 6-7. Virtual visitors can explore this educational and entertaining museum via videos touching on everything from daily life to music and traditional foodways. The podcast, Banjo Strings and Drinking Gourds, investigates “How American Culture Came to Be.”
Paramount Theater Flat screens the size of 64-wheelers may suffice during a pandemic, but they’re no substitute for the grandeur and history of Charlottesville’s 90-yearold, 1,100-seat Paramount Theater on the once again lively Downtown Mall. Paramount at the Movies presents Quentin Tarantino’s Pulp Fiction [R] starring Samuel L. Jackson on the afternoon and evening of Wednesday, June 9. Jonathan Demme’s Stop Making Sense will have Talking Heads fans and ordinary civilian music lovers dancing in their seats (and probably the aisles) when it’s shown on Friday, June 11. Recorded in

Staunton Music Festival Every August the Staunton Music Festival offers an immersive classical music experience traversing more than 600 years of music over the course of 10 days and nights. Over 80 of the world’s most acclaimed chamber musicians come to town for the Festival each summer, drawn by the adventurous repertoire, the friendly and knowledgeable audience, and the inspired leadership of conductor Carsten Schmidt. These artists are invited for their expertise in historic performance traditions, commitment to newer repertoires, professional excellence, and ability to collaborate with new partners in creating dynamic, live performances. While SMF’s slogan “Rethink Classical” signals its commitment to programming past masterworks along with world premieres, it’s also proud of and rightly celebrated for its historically informed performances enriched by the subtlety and color of period instruments. This year’s Festival runs from August 13 through 22 and includes thirteen full-
length concerts and five ticketed but free, hour-long daytime performances. It will open with a free noon concert on Friday, August 13 at noon in Trinity Episcopal Church. Entitled Serenades at Noon, the concert will feature English madrigals, an oboe sonata by Mozart, and chamber works by bandoneon composer and virtuoso J. P. Jofre. For Musica Transalpina, Saturday, August 14 at noon in First Presbyterian Church, the hills come alive with tunes by J. S. Bach, Rore and Pergolesi, carrying concertgoers between central Germany and the northern foothills of Italy. That same evening at 7:30 p.m. in Trinity Episcopal Church, Musica Transatlantica celebrates music by composers who, at one time in their careers, crossed the Atlantic. Expect Strauss waltzes, Piazzolla’s tangos, and a string quartet by Dvorak. Also on the program are Renaissance vocal music and recent works by British composer Anna Clyne. Classical music is hardly serious all the time. The heartfelt and the humorous sometimes coincide in life—and in works by Mozart, Haydn, Ravel and others. Trinity Episcopal hosts (Non) Sense and Sensibility, Thursday, August 19 at 7:30 p.m.
The Festival’s percussionists take center stage as both performers and composers in Love and Repercussions at Trinity Episcopal, Wednesday, August 18 at 7:30 p.m. Works will be heard by Brahms and Handel, Gesualdo and Crumb, and more.
The American Shakespeare Center Staunton’s 300-seat Blackfriars Playhouse, opened in 2001, is a faithful recreation of Shakespeare’s own indoor theatre, constructed in London in 1596. Theater lovers from around the world are enthralled by the handsome and historically accurate performance space as well as the high-spirited, authentic, and highly engaging productions served up by its home company, The American Shakespeare Center. This summer the troupe is presenting three classic Shakespeare works in rotation: the tragedy Macbeth, the history play Henry IV, and the comedy All’s Well That Ends Well. From pop tunes to classical masterworks, from frontier culture to stylish 20th century commissions—if you’ve missed it, gas up and go get it. Quarantine is over. Good riddance! Let’s hit the road!
