BY THE NUMBERS

HALLOWINNING

The top 10 most popular Halloween costumes of 2019 Horror movies and the 1980s are all the rage this year when it comes to Halloween costumes. But there are also quite a few timeless treasures on this year’s list of mostsearched-for Halloween costumes, according to Google Trends. Locally, Lydia Latham, the owner of Costume Curio, a year-round costume shop that supplies many of the costumes for area theaters and has a vast stock of the coolest getups that can be accessorized with wigs, jewelry and top-of-the-line makeup, said that she’s selling more 1980s costumes than ever before. “The ’80s are a big period of time right now — neon stuff, gloves, fishnets, real 1980s prom dresses, polyester tuxedos with ruffled shirts and bow ties, the Don Johnson look — the ’80s are coming back,” Latham explained.

1Pennywise The super-creepy clown from "It" is guaranteed to roam neighborhoods this Halloween.

5 Descendants Another pop-culture reference makes this year’s list of top costumes.

9 1980s Bring on the leg warmers, jelly shoes, big hair, and blue eyeshadow. The 80s are back.

2 Witch The witch never gets old. Spice it up with a wig and green makeup.

6 Clown No specification on what kind of clown this is on the Google Trends list.

10 Unicorn Like superheroes, unicorns are always Halloween favorites.

n story by KRISTINA HERNANDEZ

She also said that if there is prize money involved in costume contests, people coming to her shop will often put together a classic look. “Pirate costumes are always a hit, with feathers, leather boots, wigs, the works,” she said. “But costume mashups are our favorites — when people wear a Hershey’s Kiss costume and put on a Grim Reaper costume so they are the Kiss of Death. When they make an effort and use thought when putting it together, those are always good.” Costume rental prices vary. To rent a pirate costume with all the accessories, for example, plan to spend around $65-$70 at Costume Curio. Package costumes run from $30-$75. High-end makeup, like the kind that produces effects on the skin, is also in demand, Latham said.

4 Dinosaur

Superheroes are always trendy, a sales associate from Halloween Express on Woodruff Road said.

The T-Rex running down the street, with its head bouncing along, and seemingly unbalanced two-step is always hilarious.

GREENVILLE-BASED PODCASTS TAKE IN THE LOCAL LANDSCAPE n story by VINCENT HARRIS | photos PROVIDED

This story began as a piece about local podcasts and the people who host them. We reached out to the creators and hosts of five different Upstate-based podcasts, namely “Murder, Etc.,” “The Bearded Ones,” “Tech After Five,” “The Grey Zone,” and “Podmetto Politics.” But as we started putting the story together, we discovered a larger narrative that connects all of these podcasts. We’ve talked a lot about the way our city has grown and changed over the years, and each of these podcasts, whether they’re fueled by the arts, sports, technology, politics or, in the case of “Murder, Etc.,” our own checkered past, reflect a bit of Greenville’s character in their DNA. Left: Brad Willis, Murder, Etc. | photo by WILL CROOKS

THE PAST MURDER, ETC.

Brad Willis’ “Murder, Etc.,” is probably the most popular podcast on the list. An award-winning, old-school reporter, Willis broke a story in 2001 about Charles Wakefield Jr., who was going to be released on parole after serving 26 years in prison. Wakefield had been convicted of killing two men: Lt. Rufus Frank Looper III, head of the Greenville County narcotics squad and Looper’s father. After the story aired on WYFF, where Willis worked, Wakefield’s parole was rescinded. He spent another nine years in prison. Willis says he was proud of his scoop and his reporting. But after Wakefield’s attorney brought Willis a massive file that included all of the information surrounding the conviction, Willis began to question his story and Wakefield’s guilt. “I realized that there’s a really good chance that this guy didn’t do this,” Willis says. He realized the story wasn’t just about Wakefield. “It was going to be a hisare torical narepisodes of a program raavailable on the Internet.

GREENVILLEJOURNAL.COM // OCTOBER 18

I realized that there was a greater story about Greenville and its history that was very important.” -Brad Willis, Murder, Etc. tive of Greenville and corruption and the issues that surrounded everything about justice in the 1970s,” he says. That’s the story that Willis tells with his “Murder, Etc.” podcast, which began in February. Willis weaves his dark narration with interviews and a film-noir-style soundtrack. The riveting tales of witness coaching, corruption, criminal gangs and jailhouse confessions feel like fiction. But Willis tells the stories of real people from Greenville’s past. If it sounds like “Murder, Etc.” should be a book, that’s because it was supposed to be. Willis says he abandoned that idea because he didn’t have an ending for it. Meanwhile, a friend and his wife convinced him to turn the work into a podcast. Despite the dramatic tone, Willis remains ambivalent about the idea of “Murder, Etc.” being part of the wildly popular true-crime podcast genre. “I don’t think tragedy should ever be entertainment,” he says. Still, Willis wants his story heard. “I don’t think the majority of people living in Greenville realize the kind of place it was 40 years ago.”

POLITICS PODMETTO POLITICS

If “Murder, Etc.” dives into the past, then “Podmetto Politics” takes a deep dive into the present and future of our city and state. The local-politics-focused podcast was created by Chris Fedalei, self-described “political nerd,” attorney, and former Democratic Congressional candidate; Jarrod Wiggins, who works at Slant Media creative agency and has been a campaign staffer; and Jake Erwin, attorney, podcast producer and technical director. “We’ve noticed that even local and regional television stations really focus on national politics,” Wiggins says. “We wanted to make sure that people know about what’s happening on the state and local level.” The trio strives to explain where local tax dollars go, Wiggins says, “as opposed to the 24/7 news cycle of ‘What did Trump say?’”

We like to think of ways to engage the Gen Z and Millennial audience.” -Jarrod Wiggins, Podmetto Politics “Podmetto Politics,” which kicked off in May of 2018, has explored topics such as reproductive rights, domestic violence, education and civil-asset forfeiture, Wiggins says. “We cover (issues) at a pretty casual, basic level. We make it as entertaining as possible; we want … folks to feel like they learned stuff about local government.” Wiggins says “Podmetto Politics” is geared toward engaging millennials and Gen Zers, who vote infrequently and may not tune into the political process because they don’t understand the nuances of how legislation is proposed and enacted.

TECH TECH AFTER FIVE

Phil Yanov is concerned with engagement as well, engagement in the IT industry. Yanov worked in IT for years before launching Tech After Five, which creates after-hours networking opportunities for tech professionals. His podcast of the same name grew from his career, his business, and a stint as co-host of “Your Day” on South Carolina’s NPR radio. Yanov describes himself as a “super-wellfunctioning introvert.” “I knew that it was hard to find people who think like I do,” he says. He believes tech

communities need to interact. “They’re great people … but there’s a sense of competition.” As Tech After Five ballooned (with events from South Carolina to India), Yanov realized his much-loved “Your Day” didn’t cover tech issues. So he reached out. “I think they decided I wasn’t a crazy person,” he says. By the time “Your Day” ended, he was on-air for an hour every other week. Yanov’s “Tech After Five” podcast started in July 2018 and has addressed topics from parenting in the digital age to raising capital to bringing women into the IT field.

THE ARTS THE BEARDED ONES

Having a good time is what “The Bearded Ones” podcast is all about. Veteran Upstate actors Evan Harris and Jason Underwood riff on movies or their daily lives, and sometimes they create contests like “Which Sitcom Character Would Make the Best Superhero?” – all in the name of amusing themselves and their listeners. The first time Harris heard a podcast, he didn’t know what it was. “I had an office job, and they thankfully let us listen to our smartphones, and I stumbled across Kevin Smith (writer/director/ actor) talking about Conan The Barbarian,”

When we started it was way more formatted than it is now.” -Evan Harris, The Bearded Ones says Harris, who also hosts the “The Lucky 10,000” podcast. “Jason and I were (already) hanging out, free-form chatting, making each other laugh,” Harris says. They expanded the idea, and it became a podcast. Harris and Underwood keep things loose on “The Bearded Ones.” They follow a tan-

SPORTS THE GREY ZONE

To Grey Thompson, whose “The Grey Zone” podcast launched in August, entertainment means college football – mostly Clemson football, and he talks about it with dedication, knowledge and zeal. Fans would be forgiven for believing that Thompson bleeds orange. “I have a passion about it,” he says. “I love talking about it.” Thompson’s style is as freewheeling as “The Bearded Ones.” The podcast might be 90 minutes or 30 minutes, depending on his energy.

gent wherever it leads – using performance and improv skills they honed in the theater.

Radio is sacred to me. I've always had a passion for it, and a podcast for me is an extension of that.” -Grey Thompson, The Grey Zone “With college football, I can kind of jump from one thing to the next, because there’s always something going on,” Thompson says. He does deep dives on matchups, especially Clemson and Alabama. “I’ll look at their opponents each week and figure out who’s going to be going against what.”

Thompson grew up in Cincinnati and loved sports radio. “Radio is sacred to me,” he says. “A podcast was an extension of that.” He wants to expand “The Grey Zone” by inviting players from the Greenville Drive, the Swamp Rabbits and Furman University. “I love talking about college football, but I really love talking to leaders,” he says. “And sports are full of leaders.”

CAN Talks event seeks to change the public’s perception of those with disabilities

n story by VINCENT HARRIS | photos PROVIDED

Chris Sparrow loves photography. He loves his dog, Moose. He hopes to one day live on a farm where he can rescue even more dogs. And he loves the work he does with ABLE-SC, a non-profit center for independent living with the goal to help individuals with disabilities live happy, productive, independent lives. He has been in a wheelchair for seven years since a rare neurological event left him paralyzed below the waist.

ries, talk about their lives, and perhaps do a little to change the general public’s perception of them and others like them. This first edition of the CAN Talks event is an extension of Greenville CAN (Collaborative Action Network), a collective of selfadvocates, service providers, families, caregivers and professionals dedicated to increasing employment and other opportunities for individuals with disabilities. Greenville CAN was created in (Collaborative Action Network) 2013 by a grant from The Barbara a collective of advocates dedicated to Stone Foundation, a non-profit increasing employment and other opportunities dedicated to supporting creative programs for individuals with disabilities. for those with disabilities. “The Barbara Stone Foundation raises Callie Sharon works in finance.

We're all trying to put a different spin on our disabilities and get people thinking differently.” -Callie Sharon, CAN Talks speaker with disabilities. That’s the main theme of what we’re doing here: broadening the perspective to show that people are more than their disabilities, that they can do a lot of different things and be successful in so many areas of life.” Like Sparrow, Callie Sharon plans for her talk to be about who she is as a whole, touching on how she deals with epilepsy, but covering a lot more ground than just that. “My talk doesn’t just address having epilepsy, but my specific journey,” she says. “We’re all trying to put a different spin on our disabilities and get people thinking differently. I guess the takeaway is that there isn’t one particular version of ‘normal.’ Our ‘normals’ are our own.” Teachey says that he hopes that those who come to the CAN Talks event will leave with a changed perspective. “My hope is for the people who see the talks to think, ‘Maybe I’ve been looking at this all wrong. Maybe I should think twice about the assumptions I make about someone with a disability,’” he says. “It’s’ a huge differentiation to define someone through the lens of their disability, instead of seeing a person with a disability.”

Now under local ownership, Swamp Rabbits HOP into community n story by JESSICA MULLEN | photos PROVIDED

Local minor-league hockey team the Swamp Rabbits have a new owner this year, who is also now a local. Steve Donner led the formation of the multi-member ownership group, South Carolina Pro Hockey LLC, in order to purchase the Greenville Swamp Rabbits on Jan. 3, 2018. He has since relocated to Greenville from Daytona Beach, Florida, to become president of the franchise. In March 2019, Doug Heinzer joined the ownership team as well. Heinzer knows what it’s like to become a hockey fan later in life. His family was living in Colorado when his sons picked up the sport, and he became a “hockey dad.” As he learned the game, he became an NHL fan and even played in a recreational beer league. Last year, Heinzer was looking to invest in two businesses in the Carolinas. Between business calls, he took in a Swamp Rabbits game and was immediately impressed with the rink at the Bon Secours Wellness Arena. Sitting in the stands, he says he Googled the organization and looked into getting involved. Donner, the owner, answered the email, and in March, Heinzer officially relocated from Texas to Greenville. Today he is CEO of the Swamp Rabbits. Heinzer says he believes that local ownership improves the mutually beneficial relationship between the team and the community.

Our goal with outreach is being present and making home a better place to live. We're excited to enrich the community that way.” -Dough Heinzer, president of Swamp Rabbit franchise “We want to become one with the community, and we think it will raise our profile as well,” he explained. He says he was immediately impressed with Greenville when he visited, from the Peace Center to Town Hall, and he admired

Greenville is the SECOND-BEST minor league market in the U.S. how the city had grown and yet maintained its sense of community. Heinzer recounts supporting other philanthropic causes, but becoming “entrenched” in a community where he lives and plays is much easier than a long-distance, finance-focused relationship. “It’s easy to do when you live here and can appreciate it,” he says.

COMMUNITY INTEGRATION In 2019, the Swamp Rabbits launched an initiative called “30 Days of Hope.” The organization gave back to the community every day in the month leading up to the home opener. Stomper, the Swamp Rabbits’ mascot, visited seniors at Providence Care and played with kids at Swamp Rabbit Cafe. The organization participated in a clean-up with Friends of the Reedy River, donated to Safe Harbor, and gave season tickets to families with infants in the neonatal intensive care unit at Prisma Health Children’s Hospital. “Our goal with outreach is being present and making home a better place to live,” Heinzer says. “We’re excited to enrich the community in that way.”

AFFILIATES The team is strengthening its relationships on and off the ice. In June, the Swamp Rabbits formed the Carolina Hockey Alliance, in which the team became the ECHL affiliate of the Carolina Hurricanes. The Raleigh, North Carolina-based Hurricanes are part of the National Hockey League. The Swamp Rabbits are also affiliated

Source: SportsBusinessDaily.com with the Charlotte Checkers, the Carolina American Hockey League team. Both affiliates are within a two-hour drive of Greenville, which allows for a strong relationship between the organizations. The Swamp Rabbits’ ownership team says they anticipate the relationship bringing greater talent to the team. The coaching staff is also returning for its second season, promising needed stability. The Swamp Rabbits’ average attendance for home games is on a five-year growth streak, despite a losing record each season. This year, as the team is expected to heat things up on the ice, numbers should continue to rise.

HOCKEY The Southeast is not a traditional market for hockey. Heinzer doesn’t seem bothered by the challenge. When asked what he might say to someone who’s never been to a hockey game, he quips, “We’re the coolest game in town.” The Swamp Rabbits intentionally take to the ice with a tough, honest style of gameplay tailored to entertain Greenville fans. With low ticket prices and high energy at every game, Heinzer says the Swamp Rabbits offer an entertainment value for every demographic: families, young professionals, and retirees. This year marks the Swamp Rabbits’ 10th season. The anniversary is a milestone. “We’ve surprised people, but I think maybe they shouldn’t be surprised. It’s going to be a breakout season for us,” Heinzer says.

OPINION

The “All In” approach to workforce development Hubbell Lighting pledged $25,000 to the Greenville Technical College Foundation for a new advanced manufacturing and engineering-related endowed scholarship fund. n story by MICHAEL MCCULLOUGH, PR director, Greenville-based Hubbell Lighting | photo by WILL CROOKS

Hubbell Lighting recently announced a $25,000 pledge to the Greenville Technical College Foundation for a new advanced manufacturing and engineering-related endowed scholarship fund at the college. The announcement provides us with an opportunity to take stock of the progress the Greenville community has made inspiring the next generation of engineers. But there’s still work to be done. For example, it’s great that Hubbell Lighting and Greenville Tech have this program in place. But who is going to take us up on the offer? If we demonstrate a commitment to both the young people and those looking to make a career change in this region, we believe they will take notice of the opportunities and deliver on the skills they need to be a part of our collective success. The Hubbell Lighting Scholarship Fund is another example of how the leading em-

ployers in this region aren’t sitting back and taking a passive approach to workforce development. As the popular saying goes around here, and with all due respect to USC fans, we’re “all in.” As one of the largest lighting manufacturers in North America, skilled labor is key to our success at Hubbell Lighting. The Hubbell Lighting Scholarship Fund at Greenville Tech will benefit students enrolled in programs within the college’s School of Advanced Manufacturing and Engineering Technology including mechatronics technology and computer numerical control programming and operations. We are currently in discussions with Greenville Tech to develop an apprenticeship program and lighting-specific curriculum. This is an example of how we are channeling our inner marksman and creating scholarship and grant funding programs

that will be immediately transferable to careers at Hubbell Lighting. Students graduating from this program will be ideal candidates to work with us as we produce indoor and outdoor lighting products for commercial, industrial, institutional and residential markets. With the pace of innovation in the lighting industry continuing to accelerate, access to a talent pool of skilled labor is a big part of our business and critical to our success. We’re confident in this program because we’re building on the established success of our Hubbell Foundation Engineering Scholarship Endowment at Clemson University. This need-based scholarship, which is reserved for juniors majoring in engineering disciplines in the College of Engineering, Computing and Applied Sciences, has already paid mutually-beneficial dividends for the student and us.

We’ve also launched a similar scholarship with the University of South Carolina Upstate. Through Clemson University, Greenville Tech and USC Upstate. We’re doing our part to present students and those looking to make a career change with a clear path to opportunity. The future of South Carolina is dependent upon a steady, homegrown workforce. We look forward to being part of the conversation as we work toward solutions to bridge the skills gap and build a South Carolina workforce of the future.

Neighborhood Watch: Becoming an HOA watchdog n story by KELLY WESSEL

Homeowners Associations can be both a blessing and a curse. On the one hand, they give structure to a community and help set and monitor community standards to protect property values, safety and security of everyone. On the other hand, they can be overreaching in exercising authority like what color your shutters can be and even what flowers you can plant. In a few situations, they can be defrauding homeowners. HOAs are not

monitored by the state and are not legally required to provide financial statements to their membership.

GREENVILLEJOURNAL.COM // OCTOBER 18

By-laws, rules and covenants: Make sure you have a copy of the rules and covenants that govern your community. Under law, you are entitled to this. If you don’t have it request a copy from your HOA or management company. Read them. Make sure that all changes are incorporated in the version you have been provided. (HOAs can make changes to the rules and if you don’t attend your homeowner association meetings, you might not know about them). Ask for a copy of the HOA agreement with the management company. Know your financials: The by-laws should require that the HOA board (or management company) provide the homeowners with financial statements annually. Most non-accountants don’t know how to interpret the information in these reports. But there is information in these statements that can either ease your mind or raise questions. Look at the revenue line on the income statement, starting with the dues. You know what you pay. Multiply that by the number of homes in your subdivision. If they are significantly different, talk to a board member. Do the expenses look reasonable? If they don’t, talk to a board member. If the net income shows a loss, talk to a board member

HOLDING YOUR HOA ACCOUNTABLE: • Get involved with your HOA, run for a board spot. • If your HOA has had the same management company for more than five years, it may be time to make a change. • A more serious step would be requesting supporting records from your management company or calling for an outside internal audit. Although it rarely happens, evidence of fraud should be reported to the police, as in the Simpsonville case. While your community may rid itself of a problem, another community may be victimized by the same company.

That was the first piece she made and sold — and the beginning of Vintage Dreams. “I got a (macrame) kit for Christmas and I just looked up how to tie a knot and started making plant hangers and wall hangings,” she says. “I feel like I’ve always loved creating and it was just new.” Celia says she is constantly making things with her hands: plant hangers, baby teethers, wall hangings, keychains, dog leashes, mirror charms, essential oil holders, dog toys, tote bags and more. “I don’t use patterns,” she says. “I just make it up as I go for the most part. I just get a picture in my head of what it should look like.” Her favorite products to make are plant hangers and baby teethers. She says the plant hangers and wall hangings are the most popular items among customers. The time it takes to make each handmade piece varies, but a plant hanger takes about 10–15 minutes for Celia to complete. It’s a feat that her mother, Lauren, says would take others much longer. Being homeschooled allows Celia more flexibility to make products and manage Vintage Dreams, as well as work parttime for a local florist. She also enjoys

Vintage Dreams also does custom orders by request. Follow Vintage Dreams on Instagram: @vintage_dreams_by_celia.

THEATER

‘The Games Afoot’ brings Sherlock to stage in who-dun-it mystery, comedy n story by MELODY CUENCA | photos by WILL CROOKS

“When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth,” fictional character Sherlock Holmes said. Holmes’ deductive methods have helped him discover the culprit behind every case he’s taken on. But, will actor William Gillette’s “Sherlock skills” suffice to solve the case of his almost murder in Greenville Theatre’s “The Game’s Afoot”? A combination of mystery, suspense, comedy, love story and drama, “The Game’s Afoot” is a play within a play that spotlights the stage lives and

“real” lives of a troupe of actors in the fast-paced whodunit. Gillette, who plays the role of Sherlock Holmes within the show, hosts a Christmas Eve party to reveal which one of his fellow castmates shot him. “It’s like Agatha Christie, Noël Coward and The Three Stooges combined at different points in the play,” actor Blake Sims says. Sims, who portrays Gillette in “The Game’s Afoot,” says the story is about love, heartbreak, friendship, betrayal, life and death as the actors try to find their way in the world.

It's like Agatha Christie, Noël Coward and The Three Stooges combined at different points in the play.” -Black Sims, actor

“They’re a troupe of actors that have been working together for maybe 15-20 years — so they’re a family,” Sims says. “They do have love interests in real life. There’s also betrayal in real life and some with extreme circumstances, because some of it does involve murder.” The premise of the show is based on the true story of Gillette asking Holmes creator Sir Arthur Conan Doyle for permission to write a play about Sherlock Holmes. After the show became a success, Gillette used his earnings to build a castle in Connecticut which still stands today. Set in Gillette Castle, “The Game’s Afoot” shows tidbits of Gillette’s admiration for Sherlock in the castle’s rotating walls, twoway mirrors and secret passages. “Gillette actually kind of was Sherlock towards the end,” Sims says. The iconic deerstalker hat and curved pipe originated from Gillette’s stage version of the character. Playing the role of ingénue and love interest Aggie Wheel-

I know what’s happening now.’ And there’s another twist.” “The Game’s Afoot” offers devoted Holmes fans lots of character-related jokes as well as comedic moments anyone can enjoy. “I really feel like it’s a show that has a little something for everyone,” Street says.

Bill Bryson is deeply concerned about your body. We’ve been given a wonderous gift — a body — and most of us cheerfully neglect it. “We should all be grateful for the miracle of life,” said Bryson, the author of “A Walk in the Woods” and other best-selling books. “Every human life doesn’t last very long, and we do take that for granted.” Bryson, 67, is coming to the Peace Center to talk about his body — and yours — at 7:30 p.m., Tuesday, Oct. 22. He’s touring the country in support of his just-published “The Body: A Guide for Occupants,” a rapturous account of the human anatomy. Bryson explores the body’s marvels in detail and with unstinting amazement. Did you know that tooth enamel is the hardest substance in the human body? That your heart over your lifetime does the equivalent work of lifting a ton of weight 150 miles into the air? That articulate speech requires a mind-boggling array of coordinated actions? Bryson talks about this and a great deal more in 450 pages.

Bryson wrote the book because, he said, many people don’t really understand the body — nor did he at the beginning. “We all occupy this space we call our bodies for our whole lifetimes. It’s the most intimate thing we know, our own bodies,” he said. “But most of us don’t know how we’re put together or how it keeps us alive.” Bryson came to the project with an abundance of questions: Why, for instance, do we yawn? Why do we spend a third of our lives, as he put it, “passed out”? “In prehistoric times, there must have been a huge amount of risk involved in sleeping,” Bryson said. “If you

BILL BRYSON PRESENTS “THE BODY: A GUIDE FOR OCCUPANTS” TUESDAY, OCT. 22 | 7:30PM PEACE CENTER $45 PEACECENTER.ORG were lying there unconscious, someone could bang you on the head or an animal could eat you.”

LIFESPAN IN PERIL?

At his Peace Center appearance, Bryson will discuss the book and take questions from the audience. He’s quick with a canny observation or pointed quip. Life expectancy, he said, improved as much in the 20th century as in the previous 8,000 years, but there’s an important concern. “It’s entirely possible that because we’re so inactive and getting fatter that all the gains we’ve made in lifespan will level off or reverse,” Bryson said. Bryson is sounding the alarm about our unhealthy lifestyles, but most of all he hopes the book will inspire people to appreciate the wonder of life itself. In his book, Bryson also levels a few criticisms at both the American and British health care systems. “The real problem in the United States, as we all know, is cost,” he said. “America spends more on health care than any other country in the developed world but doesn’t get the best outcomes. Britain spends too little and has terrible outcomes as well.”

The show, called “Jazz Classics & More,” is the first in a series of shows created by the Peace Center’s president & CEO Megan Riegel and Steve Watson, the Fine Arts Center’s director of jazz studies. The shows are the newest fruits of a long collaboration between two of the Upstate’s arts-and-music standard bearers. “We’ve always had a great friendship and partnership with the Fine Arts Center, and Steve Watson, who is an amazing musician himself, is also a phenomenal musical educator,” Riegel says. “He’s done such an amazing job to develop young talent, and over the years, we’ve talked about what else we might do together.” Riegel and Watson hit upon the idea of having students from the Fine Arts Center perform a ticketed show at Genevieve’s that will give them one of their first experiences as paid musicians. “Some of these kids are going to pursue careers in music, and we wanted to give them a leg up by giving them a resume-building, professional opportunity,” Riegel says. “Best of the best” means that not all of Watson’s Jazz Studies students will get an opportunity to play; the nine-piece group was selected from a student body of 60 based on their skills, something that Watson says was not an easy process. “Megan was adamant that everybody doesn’t get a trophy, and I’m all about that,”

This partnership is about fostering young talent.” -Megan Riegel, President & CEO, The Peace Center

WE HAVE THE SOLUTION! FAC JAZZ ALL STARS PRESENT “JAZZ CLASSICS & MORE” WEDNESDAY, OCT 23 | 7:00PM GENEVIEVE’S (PEACE CENTER) $20 PEACECENTER.ORG Watson says. “But it’s quite difficult to make a selection of people who can work together and create a product that would really stand out as the best of the best of the 2019-2020 school year.” Watson says that the “best of the best” approach will be a motivation tool for his students for the next two shows in the series, which will be in February and April of 2020. The Peace Center-Fine Arts Center partnership extends beyond just these three shows, though. The Peace Center often has visiting artists give pre-show master classes, and Fine Arts Center students have long been able to attend those classes for free. This year, along with the concert series, the Peace Center has created a pilot program for a songwriting class at the Fine Arts Center, sending singer/songwriter Maia Sharp, who often performs at the Peace Center and conducts songwriting workshops with South Carolina’s own Edwin McCain, to the Fine Arts Center to teach students from the Jazz Studies program about songwriting. “While Maia’s in town, she’ll be going to the Fine Arts Center and working with Steve to develop a songwriting program,” Riegel says. “This partnership is about fostering young talent. Let’s give these guys the tools, and let’s give them the platform.”

GREENVILLEJOURNAL.COM // OCTOBER 18

Local artist Doug Young’s figurative sculptures share stories and emotions of the past. Whether it be a fictional character or a real-life person, Young’s works of art invite viewers to reflect and learn. “There’s always a story,” he says. “There’s a story behind everything.” Known for his iconic bronze Shoeless Joe Jackson sculpture at the Greenville Drive stadium, the seasonal Nativity scene at Bob Jones University and his recent Water Blessing at Greenville Water System’s downtown campus, Young says he sculpts to contribute beauty and positivity in the world. “Art should be beautiful to me,” he says. “We’re called to create and I think that’s what we should be doing — either singing, acting, sculpting or something. We need to be giving something positive.” Shoeless Joe Jackson was Young’s first life-size piece, and now he’s created more than half a dozen in the area. He enjoys working on large-scale projects, adding the clay with his hands and removing it to reveal a masterpiece. Much patience and planning is required of Young when working on these sculptures. He creates 1- to 2-foot models before sculpting the final larger piece. “I start out small, then I make them large,” he says. “I carve the whole thing again and take it to the foundry.”

A life-size piece can take six months to be completed at the foundry, he says. There, the sculptures are cut into multiple pieces, and wax molds are made which are then dipped in porcelain, brazed and put back together as one piece. Some commissioned pieces require Young to work alongside city officials, art committees, historical societies, landscape architects and others. With each project being unique, he creates some sculptures by looking at photographs or costumes and others by using models or pure imagination. “The thing that’s so nice about sculpture is perspective is so different and lighting is so different,” Young says. The time of day as well as the height and age of viewers are a few factors weighing into how each sculpture is perceived. “Everybody is going to look at it differently with the things that they have in their background or the things that they bring to it,” he says. “But I just hope that everyone goes away thinking something.” In addition to sculpting, Young serves as an interpreter for the deaf at Greenville Technical College and directs a men’s chorus called The Pitch Hitters. Young’s works can be seen throughout the Upstate and at his studio at 3110 Wade Hampton Blvd., Greenville. Visit dougyoungstudios.com for more information.

where we're EATING

The 502 Falls St. Garage sits about half-way between the two locations.

LUNA ROSA GELATO CAFE & RESTAURANT Hillary Keane’s fiery red hair is part of her persona, so for a pre-show dinner, we suggest visiting another woman with some hair personality. Bar manager Jeni Blyth at Luna Rosa Gelato Cafe & Restaurant has rocked hot pink hair for years, while also rocking Greenville’s bar scene. You’ll find her behind Luna Rosa’s Bitter Bar at the restaurant’s new 123 S. Main St. location, mixing Italian-style cocktails and her own specialties. Pedestrians will notice the colorful gelato at the entrance but may not know the back two-thirds of the restaurant serves Italian fare, like “you wish your mother used to make,” as their tagline goes. We recommend sitting at the bar and letting Blyth and her staff serve you a full cocktail-to-dinner experience.

LUNA ROSA OFFERS 24 FLAVORS OF GELATO MADE FRESH DAILY. THEY ALSO OFFER NON-DAIRY SORBETTO GELATO OPTIONS.

RECOMMENDED: Four layer lasagna ...................$16 mozzarella & ricotta, crumbled meatballs with “the family gravy”

Shrimp scampi ........................$22 jumbo butterflied shrimp, broiled in a garlic white wine sauce served on a bed of capellini

The “L” Cocktail .....................$12 house limoncello, prosecco, lemon sorbetto, mint sprig

what we're SEEING HILLARY KEANE AT EIGHTH STATE BREWING CO. Upstate singer/songwriter Hillary Keane’s gritty, bluesy howl of a voice is emotional, powerful, and surprisingly versatile, and she’s got the track record to prove the versatility part. Keane played extensively as a solo acoustic folk artist, but she also made music bordering on hard rock with the early iterations of her band, the Hillary Keane Project. The band now has a more spacious, laid back style of rock. Their newest song, “Lake Placid Blue” feels like a timeless tune that could be on the radio now, or ten years ago or back in the 1970’s, and it will be interesting to see where the Hillary Keane Project goes from here.

THE HILLARY KEANE PROJECT, LED BY HILLARY KEANE, WAS FOUNDED IN A BASEMENT IN THE SPRING OF 2015.

Upstate Coffee Alliance unites local brewers, baristas n story by JESSICA MULLEN | photos PROVIDED

Greenville’s coffee industry is brewing. This April, 14 local coffee shop owners and baristas attended the Specialty Coffee Expo in Boston with an eye on growing business. The yearly expo, a convention of the Specialty Coffee Association, is attended by roasters, producers, baristas and other coffee professionals nationwide. The expo hosted five main competitions: roasting, latte art, brewers cup, cup tasters, coffee and good spirits. Alex Medina, who owns Junto Coffee in

Taylors Mill, described the competitions as the “Iron Chef of coffee brewing.” Winners of the competition in Boston got to represent the United States in the world competition. Medina, who is one of the founders of the Upstate Coffee Alliance, hopes to grow the local coffee community through such events as brewing classes, meet and greets and professional development programs. The alliance held its first town hall in June to solicit ideas from local coffee-industry professionals. Thirteen representatives from across the Upstate attended and discussed some of the issues facing coffee professionals, Medina said.

SOME OF THE IDEAS FOR FUTURE CLASSES INCLUDED: • Sign language basics for baristas • Accounting classes for coffee shop owners • Meet and greets with coffee producers • Learning how to have a no-waste shop For these small businesses, competition is not as important as growing the coffee community, Medina said. Bridge City Coffee and Methodical Coffee have produced a blend together, and Junto Coffee and Methodical Coffee are planning a joint coffee throwdown. Medina recalled one coffee shop owner who distributed

disloyalty punch cards that awarded free bags of coffee to customers who visited a handful of other local shops and got their cards punched at each one. The reason for the promotion: Customers who fall in love with specialty coffee grow the industry as a whole — and that’s a win for every shop in town, Medina said.

LET'S GET ORGANIZED ON A BUDGET... A CHEAP BUDGET! I love for things to be in the right place so I know where to find items when I look for them. But, I had to give up all that organization when I got married and had a child. For years I struggled with getting (and then keeping) things organized, but finally I have found the solution. Baskets... yes, just open top baskets. I have a basket for everything, from medicine, to serving spoons, to cleaning supplies, to almost anything in between. And, it is SUPER simple to just drop whatever into its respective open top basket. So, when I started looking for baskets (lots of baskets) I realized they can actually be sort of expensive at certain stores, and then I found the perfect solution... The Dollar Tree. Yes, the "everything is really a dollar," Dollar Tree. They have a plethora of baskets, all sizes, shapes, colors, styles and even different materials. Some are even "2 for 1 dollar" cheap. I was able to purchase enough baskets to go EVERYWHERE and all of a sudden that organization I love is back! Thank you Dollar Tree!

Now, Greenville go get organized!
