Hello, Charlottesville! Thank you for reading C-VILLE Weekly. Any time of year is a good time for drinks, but in the summer you can really spread out. Grab a glass of wine and swirl it on the porch. Sip a beer in the backyard on a hot day. Enjoy a fruity cider with some live music at Carter Mountain Orchard (I did that last week). Or wind down the day with an evening cocktail at your favorite local bar.

We’ve got a plethora of drink choices in Charlottesville, and this year’s Drink Issue (p. 21) is a celebration of summery local flavors. Carrie Meslar checked in with area bartenders to learn what they like to drink when they’re off the clock (p. 23). (Turns out, they generally like to keep things simple for their fellow mixologists.) And Paul Ting asked winemakers what beers they enjoy—or at least which ones will keep their dad bods in check (p.24). In between, we’ve got some splashy photos of classic cocktails that you can still sample all around town.

My first C-VILLE cover story was for last year’s Drink Issue. The article charged me, a Charlottesville newbie, with trying different mixed drinks at some of the best bars in town. For a few days, I’d get off work and down two cocktails, notepad at the ready. It was practically set up as a joke, too: “The editor of C-VILLE walks into a bar…” But I had a lot of fun with it, and met some lovely people along the way. Richard

NEWS

IN BRIEF

Barking mad

In an anonymous statement released July 10, staff at the Charlottesville Albemarle SPCA brought forward new concerns about the shelter’s treatment of employees and animals. The letter alleges that interim leaders Sue Friedman and Darcy Furr have “taken notes from former ED Angie Gunter and are bullying and manipulating staff who have remained through the last 7 tumultuous months.” The staffers also allege that the mass dismissal of volunteers and the reduction of adoption hours has impacted animal welfare at the CASPCA, noting “euthanasias are occurring at an alarming rate compared to the past.”

ACC honors Hoos

On July 7, a record 568 Cavaliers were named to the ACC honor roll. To qualify, studentathletes must play a varsity sport and maintain a 3.0 GPA or higher for the entire academic year. Among the UVA honorees were players of the year Kate Douglass in women’s swimming, Owayne Owens in indoor men’s track and field, Chris Rodesch in men’s tennis, Connor Shellenberger in men’s lacrosse, and Ethan Dabbs in outdoor men’s track and field, with a record 363 Cavaliers also named to ACC All-Academic teams.

Don’t delay

In an attempt to stop congressional efforts to change slot and perimeter rules at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, Sens. Tim Kaine and Mark Warner joined their Maryland colleagues and airline officials for a press conference on July 10. The Virginia representatives urged against altering the flight capacity of the airport, claiming it would upset the balance between Reagan National, Dulles International, and BaltimoreWashington International Marshall airports, and could result in major delays at Reagan.

Reach for the Starrs

On July 10, Starr Hill Pathways kicked off its third annual summer session with a pep rally at John Paul Jones Arena.

Run by the Virginia Equity Center, Starr Hill Pathways is a supplementary education program designed to “provide the social, technical, and research infrastructure to redress educational inequities that persist in the CharlottesvilleAlbemarle region,” according to its website. To achieve this, SHP provides rising seventh to 12th grade students free, year-round educational resources to create admissions pathways toward postsecondary education.

After receiving a $6,000,000 strategic investment grant in 2021, the program started as a pilot the same summer before fully launching in 2022. To qualify for SHP, students must attend school at either an Albemarle County or Charlottesville public school, and have permission to participate from their family. While any student meeting these criteria can apply for the program, SHP prioritizes “BIPOC youth and students of low and middle incomes.”

This year, SHP has 175 participants for the three-week summer session, with roughly 75 students returning. “I think it went great,” says SHP youth counselor Jamie Shelton about the opening pep rally. “The kids seemed really happy to be

there. Considering that it happened at 9:30am, it was high energy.”

“I was very nervous going into it and I was very surprised with how easy it was to engage with these kids,” says Shelton. “I’ve met so many funny characters, and I really enjoyed myself today, and found it easy to just connect with them and level with them and understand where they’re coming from.”

During the summer session, students are exposed to several potential career

paths, including environmental science, health and medical sciences, creative and visual arts/graphic design, urban farming/horticulture, culinary arts, education and human development, business and entrepreneurship, civic engagement and social justice, architecture, and multimedia arts (journalism and broadcasting). Each path is connected to a community partner in the area, and is supported by youth counselors.

After 125 years, Albemarle County Commonwealth’s Attorney Jim Hingeley has filed a motion to dismiss the posthumous indictment of lynching victim John Henry James.

On July 11, 1898, James was arrested on suspicion of the sexual assault of Julia Hotopp, a white woman. While being transported to court for his indictment the next day, James was pulled off of a train by a crowd of white men and lynched in Albemarle County. Despite public knowledge of his death, James’ indictment continued, with the jury voting to indict him posthumously.

No one was ever charged in the lynching.

The hearing to dismiss James’ postmortem indictment is at 4pm on July 12 in the Albemarle County Circuit Court. The Albemarle County Board of Supervisors has proclaimed July 12, 2023, John Henry James Day.

The dismissal of James’ indictment is part of the county’s Community Remembrance Project, which aims “to memorialize documented victims of racial violence and foster meaningful dialogue on race and justice.”

“He’s a super-athletic backstop who has the chance to stick behind the plate with an arm that’s easily plus.”

Starr Hill Pathways, which kicked off its summer session on July 10, gives rising seventh to 12th graders free, year-round educational resources.

A hearing to dismiss the posthumous indictment of Albemarle County lynching victim John Henry James is scheduled for July 12.

Nora Neus’ new book shares the community’s story of A12

By Catie Ratliff reporter@c-ville.com

On July 18, former Charlottesville reporter Nora Neus will release her first solo book, 24 Hours in Charlottesville: An Oral History of the Stand Against White Supremacy. While countless accounts of the Unite the Right rally have been published since 2017, Neus’ book stands out for its assemblage of survivor and witness-led accounts of the events.

After graduating from the University of Virginia in 2016, Neus worked at local station NBC29 for a year and a half before leaving to report for CNN. Shortly after starting at CNN, Neus returned to Charlottesville to cover the Unite the Right rally for Anderson Cooper.

“I had my first idea of an oral history of August 12, 2017, on about August 18, 2017,” says Neus. “I pitched a story to CNN to do an oral history. ... I had just left my job, and there was this incredible backstory of the day, behind the scenes of how the local journalists were covering it in a way that I thought would be really interesting as an oral history. The pitch didn’t get accepted, I never wrote that piece, but I always had that in the back of my head.”

Despite an abundance of coverage of Charlottesville’s summer of hate, widespread misinformation and misconceptions persist, according to Neus. “Six years after the events of August 12 and that weekend and the whole summer of hate, there still is such a misconception about what actually happened,” she says. “It got really frustrating to have to try to explain over and over again that this was not something that came out of nowhere. … There was a very serious, concerted effort to try to warn policymakers and leaders at all levels of government and public life that this was going to happen. There was going to be a white nationalist riot, and it would be violent, and they would try to kill people.”

While Neus had considered collecting an oral history of the build up to and events of the Unite the Right rally for years, it was the Sines v. Kessler lawsuit that prompted the journalist to start writing her book. “I was still at CNN at the time, and just felt like there needed to be an account of what happened,” she says. “And when I went to go look for one that was very thorough, I didn’t feel like there was one thorough account yet.”

Neus collected accounts from numerous people in and around Charlottesville on August 11 and 12, 2017. While she felt the project was important, recounting the experience was still hard for Neus and the survivors and

witnesses. “I thought it was going to be really emotionally taxing and difficult to write, so I prepared myself for that, and then it was way worse than I thought it would be. I mean, just on a very personal level, my nightmares about August 11th and 12th came back,” says Neus. “There’s a big responsibility I feel in honoring those stories.”

She says she also has regrets about what she didn’t do that weekend. “I said that to

someone I was interviewing, that I really regretted not doing more. I don’t know even what that would have looked like, but just that I wish I had done more. And [they were] like, ‘We don’t need your regret, we need you to work moving forward.’ And I hope this book is part of that work.”

To ensure that her book supports the community, Neus compensated activists and community members for their responses, and a portion of the book’s profits will go to survivors.

While 24 Hours in Charlottesville can be emotionally taxing to read, Neus stresses that the accounts shared remain painfully relevant today. “I think the main reason that people should read the book, even though it is a hard read … is that this is not over. This fight is very much just beginning. There is already a rise in fascist activity in the U.S., and it is going to be groups of citizens that have the best shot of combating that hate,” she says.

“Six years after the events of August 12 and that weekend and the whole summer of hate, there still is such a misconception about what actually happened.” NORA NEUS

Paving the way

Long-closed lane near YMCA set to welcome traffic again soon

By Catie Ratliff reporter@c-ville.com

After being closed for several years, the lane near the Brooks Family YMCA is scheduled to reopen late this fall.

While many Charlottesville residents link the lane closure with the YMCA, the project is actually associated with the Virginia Department of Transportation and the Charlottesville Department of Parks & Recreation, due to its ties to McIntire Park. The construction runs alongside the 250 bypass interchange at the transition of Rugby Avenue and McIntire Park Drive, so the lane closure significantly narrows the road in an area of high traffic.

Originally closed during the construction of a railroad bridge, the lane has remained closed because of construction on the bridge supporting the 250 bypass. While the infrastructure update to the bridge was completed two months ago, the road has remained closed for additional project considerations, according to park planner Chris Gensic.

As a result, the lane continues to be blocked despite a lack of current construction.

During the construction of the railroad bridge in 2017, VDOT granted funds to ensure safe pedestrian and bicycle routes through the interchange area. To accomplish this, the city will build a “shared use paved trail from Westwood Drive to the new railroad bridge,” says Gensic. With the support of city engineering and traffic staff,

Gensic is serving as both the grant and project manager for the trail.

“The original project was to just convert the sidewalk to a 10-foot trail into the park from the neighborhood,” says Gensic. “When the lane closure was done for the bridge project, the city was asked to explore an option where all vehicle traffic could remain on the one side and the trail might be widened and include more green space and trees.”

While the city considered closing the lane permanently, the plan to widen the trail using the lane was scrapped due to utility issues and public preference for the original traffic pattern. “The trail project is going to bid for construction next month and should be complete by Thanksgiving,” says Gensic. “Once it’s complete the barriers will be removed and [the] traffic pattern restored.”

However, more construction on the road may come in the future.

“The neighborhood also asked to add some intersection improvements, including a four-way stop to help control traffic speed and the road curves in the interchange area as cars pass,” says Gensic. With no design plan or funding allocated yet, the timeline for this construction is still unknown.

On top of the potential road change, the city hopes “to extend [the] trail over to the YMCA and then west to Meadowbrook Heights to join the 250 bypass trail to Route 29,” according to Gensic.

For now, Gensic says the road will return to its original traffic pattern, with the barriers blocking the lane to be removed this fall or winter.

Originally closed for an infrastructure project, this lane near the YMCA has remained shut due to a trail tied to McIntire Park.

Taller towers?

County considers changes to rules on cell coverage structures

By Sean Tubbs

Albemarle County has long had policies in place that put a high priority on rural preservation. Since 2000, approval of cell towers depends on if towers and antennas are hidden from the landscape.

About half of the county is in an avoidance area of some kind or another, including historic districts. Public hearings are held for those that might have visual impacts.

“These barriers are counterproductive to providing the level of service we want in the county, and these suggested changes make it financially viable for wireless providers to make needed investments,” says Lori Schweller, an attorney with the firm Williams Mullen, who frequently represents wireless providers seeking to erect more towers.

Some on the Board of Supervisors agree, and have been calling for an update on the policy. CityScape Consultants has completed a long-anticipated study that has made suggestions about how the county could change its rules to increase coverage.

“This code really does keep the visibility of the tower down significantly,” CityScape’s Susan Rabold said at a recent Planning Commission meeting. “The challenge … is that propagation patterns cannot travel as far. The higher you go, though you would gain more coverage, you would have more visibility.”

One suggestion is to allow expansion of existing towers to 130 feet, which would boost signal coverage. Another is to allow larger equipment at the tops of towers.

John Foster lives near the Batesville Historic District, and he called for the county to retain rules that say towers can be no higher than 10 feet above the nearest tree, and that they must be screened by trees. He

also wants the county to continue prohibiting towers from being within 1,000 feet of a historic area.

“While I understand the desire for improved cell coverage, the current level of coverage does not constitute a public safety concern,” Foster says.

Commissioner Lonnie Murray urged the county to continue putting a premium on rural preservation. “Part of the deal of living in a rural area is that you have less service and I’m okay with that,” Murray says. “It’s just like when I go hiking in the wilderness, I don’t expect my cell phone to work.”

But Commissioner Nathan Moore says the county’s existing restrictions are too constraining, and he would be in favor of loosening regulations.

“So when you go hiking in the wilderness and when you go hiking on a nice trail, and your kid gets a sting or you have an allergic reaction or you fall and break your ankle, how are you going to get the word out?” Moore asked. “That’s the kind of reason why I’m very in favor of broader, better coverage of cell service.”

Commissioner Julian Bivins says he is tired of historic properties being protected from having to see cell towers. He added that denying cell service to the rural area penalizes people with low incomes who live there.

“There’s a whole host of people there that are just plain old working people,” Bivins says. “There’s a whole bunch of tradespeople over there that use their cell phones to get work, to do work, and to tell whoever is in their lives that they’re going to be late.”

A community open house will be held sometime this month, followed by public hearings before the Planning Commission and the Board of Supervisors in the fall.

...favorite brews, and raised a toast to the time-honored drinks we’ve featured over the years

For this year’s Drink Issue, we asked local bartenders what wets their whistles at the end of a shift, queried winemakers on their...

WE'LL HAVE WHAT THEY 'RE HAVING

Negroni from The Alley Light

This tried-and-true bittersweet aperitif is right at home in the dusky vibes of downtown’s secret spot.

.38 Special from The Local

The

spicy-sweet old-fashioned gets amped up with Bulleit Bourbon, local honey, Canton Ginger Liqueur, bitters, and muddled cherry and orange.

Where the pros go Drinking with friends after a long shift

Bartending shifts are long, physically demanding, and often psychologically draining. So it makes sense that there is a deep camaraderie that develops between co-workers and across the industry. Going out for a drink is both an opportunity to relax and a chance to swap stories and connect with bartenders at other spots. So where do some of your favorite bartenders head when not delighting you with their latest concoctions?

“My favorite place to drink after a bar shift, or on a day off, is anywhere where the crowds have cleared out and you can walk in and be a breath of fresh air for a colleague who’s just been through the weeds,” says Drew Kuechler, who spreads his time behind the stick working at Smyrna and consulting at the newly opened Crozet rooftop spot, Bar Botanical.

Andrea Rouillard, assistant bar manager at The Alley Light, doesn’t venture out with the same frequency as she did in years past, but when the mood to hit the town strikes, she has some favorites. “I like to pop by Lost Saint and see a whole bunch of my friends,” she says. “Nicky and Niko there usually have some playful cocktails with good puns or jokes that make me giggle.”

In a state where drink programs are often limited by brands and ingredients, it can feel more difficult to be innovative, so it’s not uncommon for bartenders to swap advice on fixes for impossible to stock products or share specs on a rediscovered classic. Having recently returned to the Charlottesville bar scene to take the helm as bar manager and assistant general manager at Café Frank, John Higginbotham is viewing things with a fresh perspective. After spending the last

two years digging into San Diego’s cocktail culture, Higginbothom is eager to put his learnings to work. “I got to work with some of the absolute best in the business, working in and around incredible bar programs and having access to ideas, techniques, and ingredients I hadn’t experienced previously,” says Higginbotham.

He also finds himself in an era of life where nightly bar outings are a thing of the past. “I don’t go out nearly as much as I used to, but when I do make it out I really dig sitting at the bar at Oakhart chatting with the staff, or the patio at Guajiros, anywhere that has a solid daiquiri and mojito on the menu is calling my name.”

Often when their evenings have been spent crafting the perfect cocktails for thirsty patrons, asking for the same experience from another in the trenches isn’t the look, rather bartenders keep it quick and simple when patronizing other spots. Kuechler says the best part of a post-shift drink—or any drink on a day off—is just chatting with whoever is behind the bar, and “a beer and a shot of fernet, or a rail bourbon, depending on the day” hits the spot.

Rouillard agrees. “I’m a huge fan of all the Miller’s bartenders. And a place that serves me shots of tequila or fernet (depending on the night I’ve had), cold Coors Light, and chicken tenders or pretzel bites until 1am is sure to find a way into my heart. And I have a soft spot for Dex over at Brightside, with his Miami Vices and pimento dip.”

As the long days of summer set in, and much of the Charlottesville service industry sees the pace slow, look for your favorite bartender on the other side of the bar, enjoying a cold drink, whatever their go-to may be.—Carrie Meslar

“A place that serves me shots of tequila or fernet (depending on the night I’ve had), cold coors Light, and chicken tenders or pretzel bites until 1am is sure to find a way into my heart ”

ANDREA

ROUILLARD, ASSISTANT BAR MANAGER AT THE ALLEY LIGHT

Murano from Maya

Take it onto the patio: Some natural light helps illuminate the stained glass effect of this sweet update on the cosmo.

B. Moss from Bang!

Made with just three ingredients, this refreshing and crisp cocktail is served in a frosted martini glass.

TRISTAN WILLIAMS

Miller’s serves food and liquor into the wee hours, which makes it a favorite after-work spot for area bartenders.

Original WJ Moonshine Punch from The Whiskey Jar

The once-illegal moonshine gets dressed up with a mix of seasonal fruit and citrus, plus some dashes of orange and angostura bitters.

Espresso Martiki from Vitae Spirits

A modern favorite gets an infusion of coconut plus the distillery’s own coffee liqueur, a local collaboration with Mudhouse Coffee Roasters.

Beer before wine Local winemakers share their brewery favorites

“It takes a lot of beer to make good wine” is oft repeated among winemakers, though the saying’s origin remains unknown. After a hot and tiring day working in the vineyard, a cold refreshing beer is often the beverage of choice. Curious as to what local brews area winemakers are enjoying, we asked for their recommendations.

Emily Hodson Veritas Vineyards and Winery

Hodson names the Baby Bask from Basic City Beer Co. as her current favorite. She finds the New England-style IPA to be “a balanced IPA with great freshness and citrus quality.”

Ben Jordan Common Wealth Crush Co. Jordan also includes a Basic City beer among his favorites. The Te Reo, which the brewery describes as a “New Zealand pilsner,” is a distinct lager, dry-hopped with hops sourced from New Zealand. (Jordan’s recently established winery is located immediately adjacent to Basic City in Waynesboro.)

Stephen Barnard Delfosse Vineyards and Winery Barnard, who recently took over winemaking at Delfosse after leaving Keswick Vineyards, points to the Home Run Hefe from Patch Brewing Co. as his current favorite. Barnard describes the beer as “cloudy, fruity, and full of that yeasty character” that he loves.

AJ Greely Hark Vineyards

A self-proclaimed “sucker for Belgian-style Tripels,” Greely appreciates complexity not just in wine but also in her beer. She finds the Tripel Note from Starr Hill Brewery to be a great example of the style, specifically appreciating the “hints of fruit and spice” that it brings.

Kirsty Harmon Blenheim Vineyards

Harmon favors the Helles Lager from Fine Creek Brewing Company, located in nearby Powhatan. She describes it as a “light and crisp, no-nonsense beer that is refreshing and perfect in hot, humid weather.” Harmon has sampled numerous Fine Creek brews thanks to an ongoing professional collaboration between Blenheim and Fine Creek.

Rachel Stinson Vrooman Stinson Vineyards

The Raspberries on Acid from Blue Mountain Brewery currently sits at the top of Vrooman’s list. Although she

clarifies that she isn’t seeking this flavor profile in her wine, she finds a “high alcohol sour beer so refreshing in the summer.” She also applauds the fact the beer is aged in used barrels from Michael Shaps Wineworks.

Michael Shaps Michael Shaps Wineworks

Speaking of Wineworks, Shaps offers two recommendations. For everyday consumption, he likes the Three Notch’d 40 Mile IPA due to its “slightly richer style,” and notes the West Coast-style IPA has just enough hop character. However, during harvest, he opts for a light-

er, thirst-quenching beer and favors the Hardywood Park Craft Brewery Pils, a classic German-style Pilsner.

Matthieu Finot King Family Vineyards

“I was drinking a lot of IPA 10 or 15 years ago, but I have to say with my old age that I am not drinking as much … I need to watch my dad bod!” This is how Finot humorously explains his preference for beers that are, in his words, “everything that is not trendy.” Finot proffers the “light, crisp, and refreshing” Vienna Lager from Devils Backbone Brewing Company as a great example that aligns with his tastes.—Paul Ting

THE HOW TO’S

MAKE THE MOST OF THESE SEVEN DELICIOUS DAYS!

The very first C-VILLE Restaurant Week had foodies buzzing and tables filling up faster than a top chef can slice a ripe tomato. Ditto for this one in summer 2023. Getting in on the fun is easy–but it requires a little planning. Here’s how.

STEP 1:

Mark your calendar for Monday, July 17thSunday, July 23rd

STEP 2:

Peruse the menus from the participating restaurants to decide which ones suit your fancy. With so many participating, you can’t visit one every night!

STEP 3:

Call each restaurant directly to make your reservation, and mention that you’re coming in specifically for Restaurant Week. Reservations are first-come, first-served and chefs report that interest has been running high, so don’t tarry.

STEP 4:

Show up on time, and make sure you’re dressed to make your mama proud, since some of the participating establishments have dress codes.

STEP 5:

Make sure you order off the special “Restaurant Week” menu, as some of the participating restaurants will also offer their regular—i.e. more expensive— menu. (Everyone will be dismayed, and you might end up washing dishes, if you order the $65 flaming surf and turf that’s not part of the special prix fixe menu.)

STEP 6:

Savor your meal, and when paying your bill, please remember that drinks, tax and tips are not included.

1ST COURSE pick an appetizer

2ND COURSE pick a salad

Caesar romaine, garlic croutons, shaved parmesan, caesar dressing

CULTURE THE WORKS

Surveying the lands

The Fralin examines Indigenous peoples’ territories through its own collection

By Sarah Sargent arts@c-ville.com

Apair of shows on view at The Fralin Museum of Art at the University of Virginia shine a spotlight on arts, culture, and the very existence of two groups of Indigenous people in North and Central America. “N’Dakinna Landscapes Acknowledged” and “Look Three Ways: Maya Painted Pottery,” curated by Adriana Greci Green, The Fralin’s curator of Indigenous Arts of the Americas and Dorie Reents-Budet, research associate at the National Museum of Natural History, center on work drawn from the museum’s collection.

“N’Dakinna Landscapes Acknowledged” takes an innovative approach to presenting landscapes by members of the White Mountain School of painting, which flourished in New Hampshire during the 19th century. Similar to, though lesser known, than the Hudson River School, it shared some prominent Hudson River artists. Featured in this show are works by White Mountain painters Benjamin Champney, Samuel Lancaster Gerry, Samuel W. Griggs, and Sylvester Phelps Hodgdon.

As the robust American landscape painting tradition reveals, the land—its beauty and vastness—was a source of enormous inspiration and pride for newly arrived settlers. America’s great expanses represented a present-day Garden of Eden that was theirs to inhabit and tame into cultivation. This reverence was far-reaching, extending even to those who might never actually see these places in person. Champney’s paintings, for example, were often reproduced as chromolithographs that were widely distributed.

This perspective ignores the fact that the land had been inhabited for millennia by a whole host of Indigenous peoples who had very different ideas about the land and its stewardship. N’Dakinna (homeland) is the Abenaki’s (People of the Dawn Land) name for this area, which they have occupied for 13,000 years. The Fralin show asks us, when looking at these beautiful paintings, to consider the Abanaki and their relationship to the land.

As we navigate the choppy waters toward a more accurate understanding, the trick is to hold two different realities in one’s mind, acknowledging the experience of loss—of people, land, and culture, known as territory acknowledgment—and yet appreciate these paintings for what they are: beautiful landscapes that provide an incredibly valuable snapshot of what pre-industrial America looked liked.

Champney’s “Moat Mountains from Intervale” depicts a broad vista of cultivated valley before a backdrop of the dramatic geological formations known as the Ledges, with mountains beyond. The picture is surprisingly small given the grandiosity of the scene, but there’s an appealing intimacy to its size. The other works, oil on paper studies, provide charming pastoral vignettes, with Gerry’s view of a twisted tree against a blazing evening sky possessing a moodiness reminiscent of the almost contemporaneous German Romantic painters.

In addition to the paintings, two maps included in the exhibition speak to the Indigenous people’s relationship with the land. One, a topographical map Greci Green produced in collaboration with Chris Gist of UVA’s Scholars Lab, features the Abenaki and neighboring nations, the Haudenosaunee and Wabanaki, spelled out in a striking orange font across the map. The bold, flat writing effectively subverts the map’s imposed borders, proclaiming whose land it really was.

“My own work is very much focused on Indigenous Native sovereignty and treaties,” says Greci Green. “When I think about art and landscape, I see it through those lenses.”

The other map, made in 1852 by cartographer Franklin Leavitt, features superimposed reproductions of the paintings placed where they were made, as well as a vintage postcard and a stereographic photograph. These latter two, which feature Abanaki posing for the camera, are souvenirs of the tourist industry that emerged around them. “These pictures of Abenaki

basket makers at tourist spots highlight how these artists remain there in this landscape and are engaged with the local touristic economy,’’ says Greci Green.

“Look Three Ways: Maya Painted Pottery” explores the rich tradition that flourished on the Yucatan Peninsula during the first millennium. Included in the show are works from The Fralin’s impressive collection of this art form, dating from 250–900 CE. Over the years, certain of these pieces have been displayed in the museum’s study center for the benefit of students, but the collection has never been displayed in this fashion before.

The vessels vary from everyday uses to ceremonial objects important to feasts that could be celebratory in nature, or important political events between different groups. They share a similar palette of red, black, soft terracotta, and cream, and the shapes of the vessels are simple: rounded bowls of different sizes, their fubsy form derived from gourds, some footed, and tall cylindrical drinking vessels.

The title of the show alludes to the three ways the works are analyzed by scholars: interpreting the Maya hieroglyphic writing that decorates the vessels, the style of the pot—it’s size and shape—and finally, instrumental neutron activation analysis which can identify the place where the pot was made.

There is a poignancy to what is on view at The Fralin, an unmistakable sense of loss and displacement, of precious relics of obliterated human experience. But there is also a vibrancy in the artistry, a chance to sense what was so widely destroyed, and appreciate those who came before.

“My own work is very much focused on Indigenous Native sovereignty and treaties. When I think about art and landscape, I see it through those lenses.”

ADRIANA GRECI GREEN, THE FRALIN’S CURATOR OF INDIGENOUS ARTS OF THE AMERICAS

“Moat Mountains and Ledges from Intervale” is included in “N’Dakinna Landscapes Acknowledged,” an exhibition curated from The Fralin’s collection.

Leo

(July 23-Aug. 22): Early in her career, Leo actor Lisa Kudrow endured disappointments. She auditioned for the TV show “Saturday Night Live,” but wasn’t chosen. She was cast as a main character in the TV show “Frasier,” but was replaced during the filming of the pilot episode. A few months later, though, she landed a key role in the new TV show “Friends.” In retrospect, she was glad she got fired from “Frasier” so she could be available for “Friends.”

“Frasier” was popular, but “Friends” was a super hit. Kudrow won numerous awards for her work on the show and rode her fame to a successful film career. Will there be a “Frasier” moment for you in the coming months, dear Leo? That’s what I suspect. So keep the faith.

Virgo

(Aug. 23-Sept. 22): The coming weeks will be a good time to seek helpful clues and guidance from your nightly dreams. Take steps to remember them—maybe keep a pen and notebook next to your bed. Here are a few possible dream scenes and their meanings. 1. A dream of planting a tree means you’re primed to begin a project that will grow for years. 2. A dream of riding in a spaceship suggests you yearn to make your future come more alive in your life. 3. A dream of taking a long trip or standing on a mountaintop may signify you’re ready to come to new conclusions about your life story. (PS: Even if you don’t have these specific dreams, the interpretations I offered are still apt.)

Libra

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22): In reviewing the life work of neurologist and author Oliver Sacks, critic Patricia Holt said he marveled at how “average people not only adapt to injury and disease but also create something transcendent out of a condition others call disability.” Sacks specialized in collaborating with neurological patients who used their seeming debilitations “to uncover otherwise unknown resources and create lives of originality and innovation.” I bring this up, Libra, because I suspect that in the coming months, you will have extra power to turn your apparent weaknesses or liabilities into assets.

Scorpio

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21): It’s a mistake to believe we must ration our love as if we only have so much to offer. The fact is, the more love we give, the more we have available to give. As

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY Cancer

(June 21-July 22): “The Simpsons” animated show has been on TV for 34 seasons. Ten-year-old Bart Simpson is one of the stars. He is a mischievous rascal who’s ingenious in defying authority. Sometimes teachers catch him in his rebellious acts and punish him by making him write apologetic affirmations on the classroom blackboard. For example: “I will not strut around like I own the place. I will not obey the voices in my head. I will not express my feelings through chaos. I will not trade pants with others. I will not instigate revolution. I am not deliciously saucy. I cannot absolve sins. Hot dogs are not bookmarks.” In accordance with your unruly astrological omens, Cancerian, I authorize you to do things Bart said he wouldn’t do. You have a license to be deliciously saucy.

we tap into our deepest source of generosity, we discover we have greater reserves of it than we imagined. What I’ve just said is always true, but it’s especially apropos for you right now. You are in a phase when you can dramatically expand your understanding of how many blessings you have to dole out.

Sagittarius

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Home computers didn’t become common until the 1980s. During the previous decade, small start-up companies with adventurous experimenters did the grunt work that made the digital revolution possible. Many early adapters worked out of garages in the Silicon Valley area of northern California. They preferred to devote their modest resources to the actual work rather than to fancy labs. I suspect the coming months will invite you to do something similar, Sagittarius: to be discerning about how you allocate your resources as you plan and implement your vigorous transformations.

Capricorn

(Dec. 22-Jan. 19): I’m tempted to call this upcoming chapter of your life story “The Partial Conquest of Loneliness.” Other good titles might be “Restoration of Degraded Treasure” or “Turning a Confusing Triumph into a Gratifying One” or “Replacing a Mediocre Kind of Strength with the Right Kind.” Can you guess that I foresee an exciting and productive time for you in the coming weeks? To best prepare, drop as many expectations and assumptions as you can so you will be fully available for the novel and sometimes surprising opportunities. Life will offer you fresh perspectives.

Aquarius

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18): By 1582, the inexact old Julian calendar used by the Western world

for 13 centuries was out of whack because it had no leap years. The spring equinox was occurring too early, on March 10. Pope Gregory commissioned scientists who devised a more accurate way to account for the passage of time. The problem was that the new calendar needed a modification that required the day after October 4 to be October 15. Eleven days went missing—permanently. People were resentful and resistant, though eventually all of Europe made the conversion. In that spirit, Aquarius, I ask you to consider an adjustment that requires a shift in habits. It may be inconvenient at first, but will ultimately be good for you.

Pisces

(Feb. 19-March 20): Piscean novelist Peter De Vries wrote, “Sometimes I write drunk and revise sober, and sometimes I write sober and revise drunk. But you have to have both elements in creation—the Apollonian and the Dionysian, or spontaneity and restraint, emotion and discipline.” In the coming weeks, you Pisces folks will be skilled at weaving these modes as you practice what you love to do. You’ll be a master of cultivating dynamic balance; a wizard of blending creativity and organization; a productive change-maker who fosters both structure and morale.

Aries

(March 21-April 19): Many astrologers enjoy meditating on the heavenly body Chiron. With an orbit between Saturn and Uranus, it is an anomalous object that has qualities of both a comet and a minor planet. Its name is derived from a character in ancient Greek myth: the wisest teacher and healer of all the centaurs. Chiron is now in the sign of Aries and will be there for a while. Let’s invoke its symbolic power to

inspire two quests in the coming months: 1. Seek a teacher who excites your love of life. 2. Seek a healer who alleviates any hurts that interfere with your love of life.

Taurus

(April 20-May 20): It’s high time for some high culture! You are in a phase to get rich benefits from reading Shakespeare, listening to Beethoven, and enjoying paintings by Matisse and Picasso. You’d also benefit lavishly from communing with the work of virtuosos like Mozart, Michelangelo, and novelist Haruki Murakami. However, I think you would garner even greater emotional treasures from reading Virginia Woolf, listening to Janelle Monáe’s music, and enjoying Georgia O’Keeffe’s paintings. For extra credit, get cozy with the books of Simone Weil, listen to Patti Smith’s music, and see Frida Kahlo’s art. If you read between the lines here, you understand I’m telling you that the most excellent thing to do for your mental and spiritual health is to commune with brilliant women artists, writers, and musicians.

Gemini

(May 21-June 20): The French phrase j’ajoute (translated as “I adjust”) is a chess term used when a player is about to adjust their pieces but does not yet intend to make a move. J’ajoute might be an apt motto for you to invoke in the coming days. You are not ready to make major shifts in the way you play the games you’re involved in. But it’s an excellent time to meditate on that prospect. You will gain clarity and refine your perspective if you tinker with and rearrange the overall look and feel of things.

Silent treatment

Silent treatment

When the curtain goes up at the opera, it’s easy to get swept up in the glamorous costumes, impressive sets, and sweeping high notes. Perhaps less noticeable, but equally worthy of attention, are the supernumeraries. They move silently throughout the production, playing important, non-speaking roles, filling out crowds, and adding to the grandeur of the opera’s constructed world. In Charlottesville Opera’s Tosca, supers play critical roles like the cardinal, the bishop, and Roberti the Torturer. Jay Yñiguez is one of these supers, and he dishes on his dream role, proudest accomplishment, and more. See Tosca July 14 and July 16. charlottesvilleopera.org

with my wife and daughter, a campfire with a dram of Colonel EH Taylor Single Barrel Bourbon.

What’s something about yourself that people would be surprised to learn: I gave the graduation speech at my college graduation.

If you could be reincarnated as a person or thing, what would you be: Apologies, but life doesn’t get much better than this. I’m so grateful for my family, friends and life experiences so far … Tosca is yet another cherry on top!

If you had three wishes, what would you wish for: A safe and happy life for my daughter, a long life for me and my wife, and a way to be united as a country again.

Do you have any pets: Two dogs, Rocco, the corgi mix, and Bruno, the dachshund … but we don’t talk about Bruno.

What is a supernumerary: A non-singing extra.

First role you ever played: This one … a bishop in Act I and a thug in Act 2.

Dream role to play: Col. Nathan R Jessup, A Few Good Men.

What role are you playing in Tosca: A bishop in Act I and a thug in Act 2, then a stage hand between Acts 2 and 3. I’m above no task.

Favorite thing about performing: Practicing … then getting it right the first time ;)

Favorite opera: Tosca … since that’s kinda the only one to which I’ve been exposed.

Favorite movie/show: Tombstone

Favorite book: Of Mice and Men

What are you listening to right now: “O-O-H child,” Lisa Loeb.

Go-to karaoke song: “Georgia on My Mind,” Ray Charles.

Who’d play you in a movie: Young me: Lou Diamond Phillips; Old me: Danny Trejo.

Celebrity crush: Liv Tyler.

Most used app on your phone: Hero Wars.

Last text you sent: Pics of my daughter and I in full costume … and me in my Tosca thug costume next to a GIF of Vincent Vega (Pulp Fiction).

Most used emoji: Glass of bourbon. Subject that causes you to rant: Entitlement.

Best journey you ever went on: Was handpicked by an alumni from my high school to be crew on a ’39 catamaran sailboat. Sailed 10 days from the Virgin Islands to Florida … didn’t get paid but didn’t pay for much either … still made out with a few core memories.

Next journey: Taking the Airstream to Cape Hatteras.

Favorite word: Sunuvah.

Hottest take: A solid/selfless work ethic is becoming more rare every day.

What have you forgotten today: That you can’t let your kid take reheated calamari for their summer camp lunch.
