PROJECT HOST IS NOT YOUR AVERAGE SOUP KITCHEN
A week before the 10th annual Project Host barbecue fundraiser April 26-27, executive director Sally Green was busy tracking down enough cotton candy for the weekend’s festivities. “We used to make it, and it always rained, or the children who were making it would end up wearing it,” she says. She ran around from BI-LO to Ingles before finding a wholesale location that could sell the premade version to them cheaply. “So we can make some money,” she says. As an executive director of a nonprofit that relies on donations to feed as many as 650 food-insecure adults and children a day, the making-money part of the equation is a priority, and no task required of her to accomplish that is too menial. And it’s a good thing. Project Host, 525 S. Academy St., Greenville, encompasses an active soup kitchen and evening meal program, the CC Pearce Culinary School, garden and greenhouse, bakery, Cooking for Kids, various other food outreach partnerships, and just this week added a fully operational food truck that will serve as a mobile soup

kitchen and revenue generator. All of those separate programs are achieved with three full-time staff members (including Green), four part-time staff, and dozens of volunteers. “Anything and everything and what somebody else doesn’t want to do,” Green says of her daily tasks. “It’s very much a team effort.” She breaks it down: Associate director Savannah Porter writes the grants; director of culinary operations Tobin Simpson fulfills the grants; garden manager and volunteer David Hull starts the seeds and plants the produce; and the soup kitchen volunteer coordinators make sure the kitchen is staffed. It’s an enormous undertaking – they served nearly 145,000 meals last year – that wouldn’t be possible without continued fundraisers, grants, and corporate donations. “Funding is changing in Greenville,” Green says. “Everybody wants to fund some sexy new project. It’s the maintenance and the operations of things [for which] nobody wants to give you money.”

THE GARDEN Executive director Sally Green has spent years caring for the neighborhood children and adults, using food as the main avenue, while leading Project Host’s many initiatives.
‘COMING HOME’
Almost four decades old, the Project Host soup kitchen began in 1981 as an extension of St. Andrew’s Church. At the invitation of a friend, Green volunteered in that first year and met her now-husband. A decade later, Green began volunteering regularly. By 1994, the kitchen was feeding more people than it could accommodate and moved to the current location in Greenville’s West End. A schoolteacher, Green was in between teaching and volunteered to step in as director in 1996 when the organization needed to fill the full-time position. She landed there permanently when the interview process confirmed she was the one for the job. “It was a great job for me,” she says. “It was like coming home.” The Project Host soup kitchen volunteers, mostly retirees, quickly became family, as well, with one common goal – to alleviate food insecurity for anyone within their reach. Porter, who’s been with Project Host as associate director for about two years, says if she could pick one job in the organization, it would be working in the soup kitchen. “Archie brings in his own garden produce. Ron and Ken make Friday hilarious,” she

says, explaining the dynamic of the regulars. It’s obvious that they and the half-dozen volunteers on a recent Thursday take their service seriously. Medium-rare roast beef is not normally on a soup kitchen menu, but these folks show up to cook real, restaurantquality food – not just open cans – for the 125 or so lunch diners who would come through the line. “It’s a personal connection you’re making with people over food,” Porter says.
MEETING NEEDS
Just how all of the Project Host programs happened was in response to a wide variety of needs, all of which stemmed from the need for food. The garden program was started in 1998 to subsidize the soup kitchen, to teach neighborhood children about growing their own food, and later to provide the majority of the produce for the Cooking for Kids program launched in 2007. The culinary school program was developed in 2003 to meet multiple needs – provide employment training and also prepare food for needy children off-site. The backbone of the operation, the soup kitchen, continues to meet the community’s changing needs. The kitchen used to

feed about 250 people, six days a week. With the surrounding neighborhood in flux, that number has dropped to 125-150 but has stabilized, Green says. Green says about half of those who frequent the kitchen are working poor, likely holding down minimum-wage jobs that don’t provide enough income to consistently buy enough food. The other 50 percent is composed of the elderly living on a fixed income and people who are homeless and often suffering from mental illness. Most of those meal recipients on-site are
adults. The on-site culinary school, led by Simpson for nine years, provides meals for more than 400 children off-site in Greenville County every day through the Cooking for Kids initiative. Students entering the culinary program are offered six free weeks of culinary training, during which they are preparing meals that will be delive

HOW TO HELP If you would like to help Project Host, visit their website at www.projecthost.org or call them at (864) 235-3403.
One answer, for now, is the food truck Project Host rolled out last week. Three days a week, it will operate as a normal food truck, parking at breweries, taprooms, and office parks for customers to buy soups, sandwiches, salads, and whatever else Simpson adds to the menu, which he says will be a sort of homage to the soup kitchen but elevated. The other three days, it will serve as a free mobile soup kitchen to reach those in need who can’t get to brick-and-mortar. Simpson, whose background is in fine dining, joined Project Host to make a difference. “I enjoy making pretty, expensive food,” he says. And he still does get to do that to an extent for catering events, wine tastings at The Community Tap, regular community meals, and the Campfire Social fundraising event each fall at Greenbrier
Farms. But that’s not his main purpose. “Feeding children? That’s a no-brainer,” he says of the career move. Teaching his culinary students career and life skills while also providing them a chance to help others is an added benefit. Two of the most recent culinary graduates will be staying on with Project Host part-time on the food truck and in the bakery, which will make baked goods for all of the various branches. The growth of Project Host’s programs relies on sponsorships and donations. Rain during the April 26-27 barbecue fundraiser could deter enough paying guests that it affects Project Host’s entire fiscal year. Because of that, developing more revenue streams is always on Green’s mind. “We need to be bringing something in to make it sustainable,” she says.

ADVOCATING FOR HOPE Local criminal justice reform advocate offers hope for returning citizens n story by MELODY CUENCA | photo by WILL CROOKS
n the Woodside community of West Greenville, 5-year-old Jerry Blassingame sat watching television as his mother was shot and killed in her bedroom by an abusive boyfriend. “That kind of put me on a trajectory that I had no understanding of,” he says. “Nobody ever talked to me about what happened to my mother or what I was going through.” Blassingame, along with his four siblings and grandparents, moved across town to an inner-city apartment complex infested with drugs and alcohol. He had no idea what would happen many years later. Triumph would grow from his trauma. Now, Blassingame is a husband, father, and founder of Soteria Community Development Corp. Soteria trains previously incarcerated men and women to lead successful, healthy lifestyles as they reenter society. Since Blassingame started the corporation 20 years ago, Soteria has built low-income housing in Greenville, and even owns six houses on the street where his mother was murdered. Soteria also owns a transitional housing facility and a deconstruction and reclamation business where residents learn job skills and financial literacy to become productive citizens. “I had no idea, at 5 or 10 or 15 years old, that I would be doing this work,” he says. In the last five years, Soteria’s recidivism rate is only 4 percent. Once an incarcerated man serving time on a 20-year sentence for drug charges, Blassingame saw an opportunity to help himself and others. “While I was there, I decided I was going to change my life, so I became a Christian,” he says. And with that, Blassingame started planning for
his life after prison to ensure he wouldn’t return to his cell. “I would pray and read and write, and I started to pen Soteria,” he says. “People thought I was crazy.” Noticing a common story among those he met, Blassingame saw individuals with no place to go after prison. “And [it was the] same story — ‘I couldn’t find a job when I got out last time so I had to go back to doing the same thing,’” he says. Blassingame found that obtaining a job, a house, and an education was seemingly impossible for previously incarcerated individuals. “The list goes on and on of the collateral consequences that people with criminal backgrounds face,” he says.
IN THE LAST FIVE YEARS, SOTERIA’S RECIDIVISM RATE IS ONLY 4%. Released on parole three and a half years later, Blassingame and his wife began to implement the vision of Soteria and apply community development principles. “You can’t just do one thing and help somebody to get out of prison — it has to be a holistic approach,” he says. “We’ve been able to take a holistic approach to criminal justice reform to help end mass incarceration.” Understanding that incarcerated people often carry traumatic experiences with them, Blassingame strives to provide them with hope outside prison. “I found my purpose because of the pain and the trauma that I went through,” he says. “I found my purpose sitting in a prison cell.”
Blassingame founded Soteria Community Development Corporation to train previously incarcerated men and women to lead successful, healthy lifestyles as they reenter society.

Home Tips While most people are concerned with air pollution from the outdoors, they typically fail to consider what goes on inside their home. Humidity levels, which should be around 45%, are one factor to pay attention to. If levels are over 50%, moisture is too high and can contribute to mold growth in your house. To decrease humidity, open the windows, turn on a fan or air conditioner, or use a dehumidifier. This will help keep your indoor air livable and enjoyable.

Nearly half of all SC 4-year-olds now attend statefunded pre-K programs n story by ARIEL GILREATH
In the last 16 years, South Carolina has gone from less than a third of its 4-yearolds attending state-funded preschool programs to nearly half — a 59% increase.

APRIL 26 // GREENVILLEJOURNAL.COM
The data on early education comes from a new report by the National Institute for Early Education Research (NIEER) at Rutgers University called “The State of Preschool 2018.” The report ranks each state on its early education access and funding, and it also takes a look at the quality of preschool programs. Steve Barnett, senior co-director and founder at NIEER, said there’s a big difference between high-quality preschool programs and those that amount to babysitting services. “Preschool is a vast wasteland at too many places,” Barnett said during a webinar news conference on the report. Only three states met all 10 of NIEER’s quality benchmarks — Alabama, Michigan, and Rhode Island. South Carolina met seven of the 10 standards. Ryan Brown, chief communications officer with the South Carolina Department of Education, said the state has focused all of its preschool efforts on 4-year-olds who qualify for Medicaid or those living 185% below the federal poverty line through the Child Early Reading Development and Education Program (CERDEP). Local districts
have a limited number of seats for their preK programs that target 4-year-olds living in poverty, but most districts will open their programs to 4-year-olds outside that criteria if all of the seats aren’t filled. The number of 3-year-olds in state-funded programs has dropped to less than 1% in 2018, according to the report, primarily because there is no state-funded program for 3-yearolds. Brown said some local school districts have 3-year-old programs, but they don’t receive state funding for it. Parents who want to send their 3-year-olds to preschool programs often must look at private programs or the federally funded Head Start program. “We don’t have every single student that meets that [poverty] threshold in a 4-yearold program,” Brown said. “Before we can expand it, we need to be doing a better job of capturing all of the students that are eligible and getting them enrolled.” Along with the state Department of Education, South Carolina also has a publicprivate partnership for 4-year-old preschool programs with First Steps, a nonprofit created in 1999 by the state’s General Assembly. The report from NIEER ranked each state on its access to preschool programs for 3and 4-year-olds and the resources allocated to early education programs based on state spending and all reported spending. It also highlighted the number of quality standards each state implemented out of a total of 10. South Carolina ranked 11th for access to programs for 4-year-olds, 29th for access for 3-year-olds, 37th for resources based on state spending, and 41st for resources based
on all spending. Of the 10 quality standard benchmarks, South Carolina had seven in practice — early learning standards, curriculum supports, teacher specialized training, staff professional development, maximum class sizes of 20 students, a staff-child ratio of 10:1, and a continuous quality improvement system. The three standards the state didn’t meet were: requiring private preschool teachers to have a bachelor’s degree; requiring assistant preschool teachers to have the equivalent of a child development associate degree (CDA); and offering vision, hearing, and health screenings for preschool students. Brown said the state department requires its preschool teachers to have bachelor’s degrees, but it has no control over the private preschools that South Carolina First Steps partners with. State funding for preschool programs has increased overall in the last 16 years, although it went down from $3,072 per child in 2017 to $2,819 per child in 2018. “Based on the funding we have, we’re still getting more kids in, and we’re still doing pretty well in the access that is available,” Brown said.

TUITION RAISE
Greenville Tech raises tuition for 2019-20 year n story by ARIEL GILREATH | photo by WILL CROOKS
Greenville Technical College’s tuition will increase 2.5% next year after unanimous approval from the school’s area commission. The tuition increase amounts to an additional $54 a semester for Greenville County students taking 12 credit hours, $59 more per semester for other South Carolina residents with the same credit hours, and $111 more per semester for out-ofstate students with the same credit hours. The commission debated for about half an hour before approving the increase, which Vice President for Finance Jacqui DiMaggio said comes after continued drops in enrollment at Greenville Tech. In five years, enrollment has dropped almost 14% at the school — in fall 2014, 12,586 students were enrolled; in fall 2016, there were 11,930 students; and this past fall, 10,885. Each year for the past five years, tuition has increased between 1.8 and 4%. The decline in enrollment isn’t unique to Greenville Tech. In a 2017 report on declining enrollment, the American Association of Community Colleges (AACC) documented the trend nationwide. The report said that in 2010, enrollment at community colleges peaked after the Great Recession because of their affordability compared with four-year institutions and high unemployment rates. Since then, enrollment has declined nationwide at two-year schools, along with the unemployment rate. The Bureau of Labor and Statistics estimated South Carolina’s unemployment rate has remained at 3.2% for months — the rate has declined since February 2010 when it peaked at 11.7%. The AACC projects the decline in enrollment will continue but eventually plateau and potentially reverse because of increased dual-enrollment participation, more local free tuition programs, an increasing demand for workers with postsecondary skills, and the increasing edge community colleges have in affordability over four-year schools. DiMaggio said the 2.5% increase is just below the Higher
Education Price Index of 2.8% for 2018, which measures inflation in tuition for colleges and universities. Although enrollment and revenue are down at the school, expenditures are also down — partly because about 30 employees retired from the school last summer once the Teacher and Employment Retention Incentive program ended. The program allowed retired employees to continue working without the state-mandated $10,000 salary cap. But DiMaggio said increasing tuition is the school’s only recourse to keep up with the mandates coming out of the Statehouse. “We usually try to stay right around the Higher Education Price Index, but we’ve also had some challenges with the state because we’ve had to pay an extra percent — three years ago it was 2%, in the past two years it has been 1% — in additional funds to the state pension fund,” DiMaggio said. “This past year, it was about $500,000 to the pension increase, yet the state gave us $270,000. Unfortunately, we’re dealing with some pretty significant external pressures that we really just don’t have any control over as a state agency.” The South Carolina House of Representatives, the state Senate, and Gov. Henry McMaster’s office have all proposed increased funding for colleges to help combat ris-

ing tuition, but most of the funding would go to individual four-year schools — the House proposal has the South Carolina Technical College System receiving $6 million among its 16 schools. A new report from the State Higher Education Executive Officers Association shows state funding for institutions started stabilizing in 2018 but still hasn’t caught up to funding levels prior to the Great Recession. The report shows South Carolina colleges received $7,917 per full-time student in 2008, prior to the recession. That number dropped to $4,914 per student in 2013, and in 2018, the report shows state appropriations at $6,053 per student. Commissioners with Greenville Tech asked the school’s administration to show them the potential impact of making smaller increases to tuition next year and even maintaining tuition at its new rate amid increasing cost mandates coming from the Legislature. Ray Lattimore, a member of the area commission, voted for the increase but said the college needs to look at keeping tuition affordable for students who can’t afford to go to college. “Most of the students can’t afford to go off to college — this is the only hope that they have. We’ve got to be very sensitive to that,” Lattimore said.
In five years, enrollment at Greenville Tech has dropped by almost 14%, but it isn't unique to the school — the American Association of Community Colleges has reported declining enrollment at community colleges since the Great Recession. *Numbers indicated are enrolled students each semester.

NEW EQUIPMENT EQUALS SAVED TIME Parking gets faster in city garage
n story by CINDY LANDRUM | photo by WILL CROOKS
There’s good news for motorists who park in Greenville’s Spring Street parking garage — high-tech equipment the city installed Feb. 20 has cut the time it takes to enter and exit the facility. And the good news for those who park in the city’s 10 garages is the equipment will be installed in those, too, beginning with the Poinsett and Commons garages this summer. Since the equipment was installed, the average time it takes daily parkers to leave the garage fell from 32.1 seconds to 14.1 seconds, according to Brittany Moore, the city’s assistant general manager for
parking services. Monthly parkers were able to exit in less than one second, going from an average of 4.7 seconds to 0.9 seconds, she said. The new equipment has reduced backups at 5 p.m. when there’s a rush of people trying to exit at the same time. The city has not had to raise the gates to clear the garages, Moore said. The city has included $2.7 million to buy the equipment for all of its garages in its capital improvement plan, which should be approved in June. Once the equipment is installed in more garages, the city
is expected to unveil an app that would allow drivers to search for available parking spaces based on location and price. Drivers could reserve and pay for a space in advance. Parking services general man-
ager Bill Foster has said the equipment would allow the city to sell more monthly parking spaces in high-demand garages since it will provide better data on when and how often the garages are used.
The new system could allow the city to use dynamic pricing. For example, the city could charge less for monthly rooftop parking, something that could help those who work in the service industry downtown.

THE POWER OF BOOKS and why GLA wants your old ones
by GREENVILLE LITERACY ASSOCIATION Find out more about GLA and how you can become involved at GreenvilleLiteracy.org.
DONATE your gently used books or DVDs year-round at
McAlister Square or at any of our book donation sites. Better yet, drop by our Greenville Learning Center for a tour and we’ll take them off your hands right then and there.
VOLUNTEER as a tutor at any of our three learning centers and see the aforementioned books in action!
ATTEND or volunteer at our events, especially the upcoming 18th Annual Really Good, Really Big, Really Cheap Book Sale (August 9-11 at McAlister Square).
GIVE a financial gift to support the fight against illiteracy and poverty.
The storyteller Garrison Keillor said, “a book is a gift you can open again and again”. Nowhere does that statement ring more true than at Greenville Literacy Association. Books are where our mission begins and ends. First, though, a bit of background: Through three learning centers, GLA offers adult education services to anyone over the age of 18 in Greenville County. These services include GED preparation, English as a Second Language, and career readiness help. We take a multi-tiered approach to ensure that adults in the Upstate can achieve financial independence and rely less on costly public assistance. Take, for instance, Frances*, who’s been employed since leaving the 10th grade with a local manufacturing facility where advancing technology means fewer labor-based positions. She’s laid off, and without a high school credential, her job prospects (and bank account) rapidly dwindle as she inches closer to a welfare dependency. What options does she have? Enter Greenville Literacy Association. Through three conveniently located learning centers (Greenville, Greer, Simpsonville) accompanied by an accommodating class schedule and nominal fee plus available scholarships, Frances can attend classes that work with her schedule at a cost that won’t further jeopardize her financial standing. Since GLA tests each student upon enroll-
ment, Frances will be immediately placed on a track that best fits her level of comprehension. We’ll help improve her technology competence and deepen her understanding of the soft skills required to thrive in the modern workplace. She’ll be scheduled for placement testing, signed up for classes, and paired with a program manager equipped as a practical guide for the long haul. We do address traditional illiteracy, but the majority of our population comes to us with a comprehension level that falls somewhere between fourth and eighth grade. Many times, we see advanced students enrolling to quickly achieve a GED, and that’s where our recently-launched 90% success-rated GED Bootcamp comes in. For each GED graduate GLA sends back out into the Upstate, the community sees an annual return of over $16,000. Okay, back to the books. If you’ve ever been to one of our 17 Really Good, Really Big, Really Cheap Book Sales, you’ve seen the, uh, passion (read: chaos) that ensues when our community is exposed to a great deal on reads. If you’ve ever donated a book to GLA’s learning centers or book drives, you’ve bolstered an essential funding stream that keeps our mission alive. If you’ve made a direct gift to our mission, you’ve no doubt helped stock our centers with GED preparation guides, literary volumes, ESL textbooks, and more.

HONORING GREENVILLE WOMEN
Greenville Women Giving expands SHEro Campaign to build endowment BY BOB MORRIS president, Community Foundation of Greenville
As we approach Mother’s Day weekend, I want to preview a major milestone for the Community Foundation of Greenville (CFG) and Greenville Women Giving (GWG). With its annual awards on May 14th, GWG will have distributed over $6,000,000 in grants to more than 80 local nonprofit agencies. This remarkable group of women established Greenville Women Giving as a Special Initiative of the Community Foundation of Greenville in 2006. GWG is transforming our county. It is connecting an army of informed, compassionate, and generous women. These members experience philanthropy as a personal commitment of high purpose and demonstrated impact. It is remarkable to think that some mothers and grandmothers of current members did not have the right to vote or the opportunity to attend college. Greenville Women Giving strives to increase its membership, leverage its
14

grants, and focus on its organizing principle of “one woman, one vote”. At the same time it is moving forward towards long-term sustainability by establishing an Endowment Fund at the Community Foundation. Several supporters have included the GWG Endowment Fund as a beneficiary of their estates. Planned gifts such as IRA account designations, gifts by will or trust, and gifts of appreciated stock are being made to ensure the growth of its endowment. An easy and meaningful way to seed the GWG Endowment Fund is to make a gift in honor of a SHEro in your life. A SHEro can be a mother, sister, grandmother, aunt, or daughter—it can be any woman who has encouraged and inspired you. I have chosen to honor my daughter, Dr. Gwendolyn B. Morris, by making a gift the past two years as part of the SHEro campaign. Wynne graduated from Clemson University and the Medical University of South Carolina and is a first- year resident
in Psychiatry at the University of North Carolina Health System. Wynne comes from a long line of accomplished women. Her great grandmother Bettie Stephens Lide was a Baptist missionary in China. She earned a Master’s Degree from the University of Oklahoma in 1922. My mother, Dr. Mary Lide Morris, was one of three women in her medical school class. She was a Radiologist, raised four sons, and served as a Trustee of Wake Forest University. My daughter, like so many other girls and women in 2019, stands on the shoulders of many people who fought to make sure that the fabric of our country is stronger and brighter by being inclusive. The successes of Greenville Women Giving and the Community Foundation of Greenville have been underwritten by generous gifts and bequests from men and women alike who believe philanthropy can create the community we envision. One donor who brings this full circle is
Jean Harris Knight. In the early years of GWG, the Community Foundation used a portion of an unrestricted bequest from Mrs. Knight to provide matching grants to support membership growth. Her impact has been multiplied many times over by members who have taken full advantage of the matching gifts and today GWG is a large, energized, and successful collection of women philanthropists. Please join me in honoring the SHEro in your life by making a gift to support the GWG Endowment Fund. To learn more, visit greenvillewomengiving.com.

Bertling’s works include oil paintings and fine drawings. Photo by Will Crooks.
Scroll, double-tap, scroll, “like,” scroll — that’s how much of our free time is spent. But, Greenville painter and draftsman Nathan Bertling gives his viewers a break from their virtual lives. “As fast as social media and technology have us moving, it seems like now more than ever still images can have a calming effect,” Bertling says. “They can slow us down and help us to pace ourselves and tune into what we’re missing around us.” With an affinity for communication and a deep appreciation for life, Bertling creatively reflects both in his portrait and landscape art. “When I slow down and make room for creating art in my own life, it feels healthy,” he says. “It feels like it’s enabling me not to be so self-absorbed.” Seeing the value of the people and places surrounding him, Bertling says art allows him to not take those entities for granted. “If a person or a scene moves me

in some way and I can make contact with that through my art and honor it,” he says, “then hopefully that can encourage other people to slow down and listen, as well, and make contact with what’s important.”
“When I slow down and make room for creating art in my own life, it feels healthy. It feels like it’s enabling me not to be so selfabsorbed.” NATHAN BERTLING
Therefore, people and places permeate Bertling’s portfolio. “I just find people fascinating,” he says. “I also like tuning into their personalities and then trying to capture that through drawings and paintings.” Having a different fascination with landscapes and interior spaces, Bertling enjoys the break from figurative work and the alone time. He looks for an interesting angle by tuning into the location’s mood. “Especially if it’s some combination of a natural environment with some human-built structure, I love that dialogue — an old building [with] its own history that’s obviously in some way a memorial to human presence there, but also interacting with the beauty of the nature around it.” While labeled a visual artist, Bertling considers himself a visual listener. Art allows him to mix up the senses and make contact with reality through his curiosity.

CRY IT OUT
at The Warehouse Theatre

Dirty diapers, crying babies, and messy houses plague new moms but also connect them with others who face similar struggles in parenthood. In The Warehouse Theatre’s “Cry It Out,” universal themes of compassion, patience, and acceptance permeate the comedy of raw truth. Set in a historically working-class neighborhood in Long Island, “Cry It Out” shows the interactions of three new moms and one new dad in their unique experiences. The comedy brings to stage the ways that class and status affect those experiences. Audiences will meet two suburban moms and a pair of mansion-living parents. “We get to … watch them try to relate

to each other, which is fascinating and full of missed connections and then also moments of real, shared ‘getting it,’” director Rebekah Suellau says. Although focused on motherhood, “Cry It Out” is meant to appeal to all adults. “The theme really digs into the fact that the grass is never greener,” Suellau says. “The grass is just never greener.” The all-too-common “mommy-shaming” comes from every angle in the comedy regardless of the characters’ choices. No one is safe from criticism. “So much of that mommy-shaming is not from somebody else,” Suellau says. Having high expectations and placing pressure on themselves, the parents struggle to portray perfection.
Suellau wants audiences to leave feeling a new compassion for themselves and others, recognizing that everyone is doing their best — which looks different for each individual. “It is deeply humanizing and so dry, and you will just cackle,” she says. “It’s really a delight to watch.” Playing the role of wealthy mom Adrian, Miranda Barnett says her character shows the working mom who wants to be successful in her career. “Adrian’s very clear about what she wants — she wants her career, she wants her life, and she wants her identity that she’s always had,” Barnett says. “Cry It Out” also addresses the differing expectations for moms and dads. Barnett says many women feel the need
to handle everything, and Adrian questions the partnership of parenting. “There is no one right way. And no matter what you do, it will not be perfect,” Barnett says of parenting. “We would do well to respect that in each other rather than to criticize or try to impress our point of view on what it means to be a parent.”

Paul Dabek, who will perform at the Peace Center on May 4 and 5 with “The Illusionists: Live From Broadway,” has an idea why people are enamored with magic. “I think it’s the sense of wonder,” he said during a phone interview. “I think people want to suspend their belief. It’s a form of escapism, I guess.” Dabek, dubbed “The Trickster” in the show, said his earliest memory of magic came when he was 3. He remembers grabbing a rug off the back of the couch and throwing it around his shoulders like a cape. He put three cups and a ball on the table and mixed them around before pulling the ball off the table and pretending to make
it disappear. “My mum and my grandmother would pretend to be impressed,” he said. The tricks and the costume got better. By the time he was in high school, he was performing a few times a week at local events. At first, he did the more traditional style of magic, top hat and all. But he remembered that somebody told him successful performers had to connect to their audiences. Dabek, who said one of his biggest influences was the late Robin Williams, decided to add comedy to his magic act. “Comedy helps with the connection,” said Dabek, who hosts “The Il-

Beating kitchen pots and pans with spoons as a child, Will Harris was born to be a drummer. “My mom likes to tell the story of when I was not even 1 year old, and I was in the car [with] music playing and I could hit the steady beat on my legs,” he says. Now, the Eastside High School senior will tour Europe this summer with the brightest young musicians in the nation. As part of the National Youth Orchestra of the United States of America, Harris will participate in a three-week residency at Purchase College, State University of New York, and a musical tour with concerts in New York, Great Britain, the Netherlands, and Germany. The 2019 tour is Harris’ second year

being accepted into the program. Last year, he toured Asia, performing in some of the world’s music capitals. The young virtuoso, who plays timpani and percussion, has been accepted into The Juilliard School, Eastman School of Music, Curtis Institute of Music, and Furman University. “A lot of percussion parts are kind of like a puzzle because there’s a lot of logistic issues you have to figure out,” Harris says. “So, I enjoy figuring out the puzzle and how to go around the instruments and solve the problems there in the piece.” Among percussion instruments, Harris says it’s difficult to pick a favorite since he plays them all.
“My favorite depends on the context of where I am. In an orchestra, timpani are probably my favorite to play,” Harris says. “But soloistically, or within a small chamber percussion ensemble, probably marimba is my favorite to play.” Harris learned how to make rhythms in a weekly snare drum class in elementary school. Continuing his music education, he later learned more of the details within percussion while attending The Fine Arts Center. “I see [music] as sort of like a language that you convey, but words don’t really convey the same emotions music can,” he says. “It’s a vital part of the lives we all live.” As part of Greenville County Youth
Orchestras’ most advanced ensemble, the Young Artist Orchestra, Harris rehearses weekly to perform full symphonies and concertos — much like a professional symphony. With plans to study percussion performance in college, Harris also finds the manufacturing of different sticks and instruments interesting. Along with his father and grandfather, Harris built a five-octave marimba from scratch. The three-year project remains in his room today. “It helps you play the instrument if you know how it’s built and how it works,” he says. Hear Harris perform as the featured soloist in the upcoming GCYO “Spring Fling” concert.

Just about every post that singer/guitarist Pam Taylor puts on her Facebook page begins with “Hey, frans!” — a down-home version of “Hello, friends!” that might kick off a passage about her next show, or an upcoming recording session, or it might just let her 10,000-plus followers know that she’s feeling a little down that day and could use some encouragement. There are musicians whose social media pages are well-oiled marketing machines without a hint of any personal voice at all. And there’s nothing wrong with that; but Pam just can’t do things that way. “When I started it, it was just my personal page because I wasn’t a full-time musician,” Taylor says, “and as I became more involved with music, it KEPT being personal. It’s just me sharing my daily life.” Well, it also helps that this small-town girl from Lancaster is one hell of a blues-rock singer, songwriter, and guitar player, and she’s got a lot of awards and chart positions to back that up. Taylor has taken home three consecutive Best Female Rock Artist wins from the Queen City Music Awards. She’s appeared on magazine covers next to Bonnie Raitt and Susan Tedeschi. And her 2015 debut album, “Hot Mess,” hit No. 3 on the chart for BB King’s SiriusXM satellite radio station, Bluesville. So if Taylor wanted to, she could presumably make her social media pages all about the merch and the albums, and to be fair, she does that from time to time. But to me, the coolest thing about her is her insistence on being herself, no matter what others say she SHOULD be doing. “I don’t really care about being famous,” she says. “I don’t WANT my life to change. I just want to play music and make enough money to pay my bills.” It’s a connection Taylor has felt since she was a little girl, watching her dad play saxophone in the church band. “That was my first experience with music,
was in church,” Taylor says. “But my dad had me listening to James Brown and Elvis and Wilson Pickett, too.” Taylor started out on piano, taking lessons for seven years. But she moved to guitar when she was 18 because it seemed like a lot more fun. “I was hanging out with some friends of mine who were playing and I asked them to teach me a chord or two,” she says. “And the next thing I knew I was writing songs on this little plastic guitar we had.” Taylor has spent the last 20-plus years writing great songs (on better guitars, of course) and rocking the stage, though there have been some ups and downs. And when the downs hit, Taylor’s Facebook fans are there for her. “It keeps me going,” she says. “When I wanted to give up, the love and support I get from people who reach out to me, that I don’t even know, people who tell me my song changed their life, things like that keep me going when I want to give up.” PAM TAYLOR WILL PERFORM MAY 2 AT RED ARROW STUDIO AS PART OF ITS RED ARROW CONCERT SERIES. THE PERFORMANCE WILL STREAM LIVE ON FACEBOOK.

POWERHOUSE BAND Soil will play tracks from two-decade career at The Firmament n story by VINCENT HARRIS | photo PROVIDED
Journal Print 1/4 pg Vive France.indd 1
P A U L’ S P I C K
VIVE LA FRANCE It’s hard to imagine a better summary of the Chicago alt-metal band Soil’s career than its recent anthology, “Scream: The Essentials.” The band’s 20-year career is summed up in 21 tracks, from hard-driving, modernrock radio hits like “Halo” to more obscure album cuts and some never-before-released gems. It’s a more-or-less definitive collection compiled by the band’s bassist and co-founder, Tim King. “So when we sat down to discuss it, we put down all of the singles, of course,” King says, “and then I whipped out the collection of alternate mixes and outtakes I had.” Some of those outtakes and alternative versions of songs were recorded with famous friends of the band who have since passed away. “There’s a version of ‘Give It Up’ [from the band’s 2006 album ‘True Self’] with vocals from Wayne Static of Static X,” King says. “It was never released to the public except for a few radio stations,” King says. It was relatively easy for King to gather all of the tracks from the band’s various sessions and from their six studio albums because he co-owns the band’s label, Pavement Entertainment. “I wanted Pavement to be a safe haven for new artists to develop and get their music shared,” King says. “I was lucky enough to be
36
APRIL 26 // GREENVILLEJOURNAL.COM
able to make a career of music, and I wanted to be able to pass that on to new artists.” But there’s another reason that King and Soil, who will perform Friday at The Firmament in Greenville, enjoy being on their own label; they’ve seen way too many bands end up financially strapped and having to tour constantly to survive. “We wanted to get to where we didn’t have to do it, but we wanted to do it,” he says. “We can choose when we tour and who we tour with; we don’t have to do it out of desperation, and it’s really worked well for us. Case in point, this is the first time we’ve played North Carolina and South Carolina in five years, which we’re really excited about.”

Orchestra’s all-French program takes on new meaning after Notre Dame tragedy n story by PAUL HYDE | photo PROVIDED

chestral cornerstones: Dukas’ “Sorcerer’s Apprentice,” Ravel’s “Bolero” and Berlioz’s “Symphonie Fantastique.”
WHY YOU SHOULD GO
The Greenville Symphony will add a special piece to its “Vive La France” concerts this Saturday and Sunday. A performance of the French National Anthem will honor the spirt of the French people, rocked by the recent devastating fire at Notre Dame Cathedral. It’s just a coincidence that the orchestra is performing a program of all-French music this weekend – it was planned more than a year ago – but it has taken on new meaning in aftermath of the blaze that ripped through Notre Dame. “I consider this program a tribute to France at a difficult time,” said Greenville Symphony music director Edvard Tchivzhel.
ORCHESTRAL CORNERSTONES
The concerts spotlight three or-
“We’re finishing our Masterworks’ season with three great jewels of the classical repertoire, works that reflect the brilliance, elegance and passion of French music,” Tchivzhel said. “Sorcerer’s Apprentice” will be familiar to generations of concertgoers thanks to Disney’s “Fantasia,”
THINGS TO SEE & DO
which features a hapless Mickey Mouse grappling with brooms that come to life and create havoc. Ravel’s “Bolero,” meanwhile, is the famously hypnotic piece in which a sinuous long-lined melody journeys throughout the orchestra toward a thunderous conclusion. “‘Bolero’ begins in a whisper and grows in a long, gradual crescendo to a roaring climax,” Tchivzhel said. “It’s like an unstoppable machine.” Concerto-goers may recall the seductive role of “Bolero” in the 1979 romantic comedy “10.”
| ARTS & CULTURE
“Symphonie Fantastique,” occupying the second half of the concerts, is the first programmatic symphony: an instrumental work with a story to tell. Berlioz’s 1830 symphony relates the gothic tale of a young man who, in an opium-induced stupor, dreams he has killed his beloved and witnesses his own execution at the guillotine, followed by a wild witches sabbath. “Symphonie Fantastique” rarely fails to make an impact. “It’s an emotional roller-coaster for the audience,” Tchivzhel said.

While physical therapy is commonly thought to address existing pain or the onset of an injury, it just may be the best kept secret to preventing pain or injury. We’re here to let this secret out, just in time for you to enjoy much-anticipated summertime activities! Injury prevention Whether you’re an avid athlete or a weekend warrior, knowing the right way to go through the motions of your preferred activity can play a big role in injury prevention. Same concept as knowing proper lifting mechanics so as not to injure your back, a physical therapist who understands your activity of choice can assess injury risk factors and make corrections as necessary. For example… • Do you experience soreness in your back or shoulders after a round of golf?

• Does it take some time to recover following a run around the neighborhood? Perhaps this is your body’s way of sending you a message. While you may experience muscle pain or soreness following activity after you’ve been dormant for a time period, you should not be experiencing it following activities that you perform on a regular basis. Reviewing your activity with a physical therapist will help them determine potential movement-related risk factors, which in turn can curb potential injury. Moreover, a physical therapist will make corrections to your movements which will help lessen risk factors later on down the road. This can include, but does not limit to... Performance Improvement Not only is physical therapy beneficial for injury prevention, but it’s also helpful for “healthy” individuals as well! Particularly targeted toward the athletic community looking to improve performance in a sport or activity, physical therapy can target strength, agility, flexibility, and coordination.
