FROM THE EDITOR

I

met Jim Hammond on Valentine’s Day. It was at a holiday party thrown by a bank vice president in her condo overlooking the Intracoastal in Fort Lauderdale. At such gatherings, I dread the question, “So what do you do for a living?” Most people don’t know what a magazine editor does, and explaining it bores even me. (Don’t get me wrong, I love my job. But telling others about it isn’t fun. Try it yourself: Sum up your career in three sentences. Does it really do your life justice?) Eventually, I sat down at the dining room table next to a grinning bespectacled man with wild blond hair. A woman across the table was in the process of asking him, “So what do you do?” He grinned wider and blurted, “I make puppets!” Silence. “Oh.” More silence. “What kind of puppets?” “All kinds!” he declared before turning the question. “What do you do?” The woman mumbled something and ended the conversation

PUPPETS AND PROFITS YOU DON’T NEED TO STARVE TO BE AN ARTIST

moments later. Which was understandable. What normal career can compete with puppetry? I yearned to ask the question I’m sure the woman wanted to but couldn’t – because it might offend this large and wild-looking baby-faced man: “Can you really make a living making puppets?” The short answer is yes. Jim Hammond is not a starving artist. You can find the long answer on page 32. A few weeks later, I attended a Broward Alliance mixer at Gallery One, a Fort Lauderdale hotel on the Intracoastal not too far from the bank VP’s condo. I met Kimberly Miller, Gallery One’s director of sales and marketing. She had recruited artists to paint

JULY 2013 | LIFESTYLEMAGAZINEGROUP.COM

during the mixer. I was surprised to learn she curates an art gallery in the hotel – and her guests, especially those from other countries, regularly buy the works. You can read more about Miller’s commitment to the arts – and her business – on page 42. But these two chance encounters made me realize what a misconception I’ve been carrying around since college. Namely, that successful artists have somehow sold out. I have yet to delve deep enough into my psyche to understand where that concept comes from. But I’m sure society is to blame. It’s certainly to blame for the special issue you’re now reading. Welcome to Lifestyle Media’s first (and I hope annual) Arts Issue, where we’ll dispel such silly myths and propel deserving artists every summer. Between now and then, we’re going to cover the arts more intensely, so email me at Michael@lmgfl.com with any intriguing and artistic ideas.

STUDENTS ON STAGE A play from 1958, Leading Ladies, was the big winner at the 2012-13 Cappies – short for the Critics’ Awards Program – at the Broward Center in May.

BROWARD CENTER

FOR THE EXPANDING ARTS

I

n its first two decades, the Broward Center for the Performing Arts remained unchanged while the downtown Fort Lauderdale arts and restaurant district evolved around it. Now it’s in the midst of its first major overhaul, and it’s a big one. One of the Top 10 arts venues in the country as measured by ticket sales, the Broward Center will be unrecognizable to patrons who first stepped inside the dual-theater facility in 1991. Phase 1 was finished last summer, and it added new seats, sound and lighting systems, and a new VIP club level to the main theater. “It’s a beautiful lounge where we’re really offering a new experience,” says Jan Goodheart, the center’s vice president of external affairs. “You arrive one hour earlier than curtain, and there’s a beautiful buffet and open bar. In its first year, it’s been very successful.” Phase 2 isn’t about renovation but construction. The ambitious plans include the addition of the two-story Huizenga Pavilion on the New River, with a bistro on the first floor and a ballroom on the second. It’ll open next spring. Then there’s the Rose Miniaci Arts Education Center on the west side of the building, with a 2,100-square-foot main education space and 3,000 square feet of classroom, coaching, and administrative space. It opens next summer. Best of all, the $55 million renovation has raised $30 million in private donations, Goodheart says. She can’t say this, but we can: Miami-Dade could learn a few things about renovating public spaces from the Broward Center. And Goodheart says the fundraising isn’t over yet, whether it’s “people who might want to put their name on something or people who want to give $10.” Anyone who donates receives a pin in the shape of an exclamation point. For details, call Goodheart at (954) 765-5814.

The comedy scored big for J.P. Taravella High School, raking in eight awards, including Best Play. It was most for the year. Overall, theater students from 14 public and private high schools in Broward and Palm Beach counties won awards. Winners were determined by votes from fellow students and through a weighted peer review voting process. Here’s a list of the winners: Boca Raton Community Comic Actor in a Musical: High School Patrick Boyle (Anything Goes) Female Dancer: Laura Sky Herman Best Song: “Anything Goes” Stage Crew: Kelley Cunningham and Pompano Beach High School Crew (As You Like It) Special Effects/Technology: Male Vocalist: Nicholas Guinta Senior and Co.

HOW TO HAVE A CLASSICAL SUMMER

W

hile Broward County is becoming a year-round place to live and play, it’s still sadly true that much of its culture is seasonal. But for the past 22 years, the Symphony of the Americas – Broward’s only professional orchestra – has hosted Summerfest. It’s an ambitious effort, bringing a different world-renowned European orchestra to South Florida to play nearly a dozen shows in just a few weeks. The 23rd annual Summerfest, sponsored by American Airlines, begins this month and welcomes the I Musici Estensi Chamber Orchestra from Milan, Italy. Select members of the Symphony of the Americas will join in to play the music of Dvorak, Telemann, Purcell, Verdi, and the legendary Argentine composer Piazzolla. There’s also a world premiere by Italian composer and soloist Lorenzo Turchi-Floris, Summerfest’s composer in residence. Tickets range from $25 to $60 depending on the venue and location. For exact prices, check out the websites below. Here’s a list of all the concerts in Broward in July and August:

THE ART OF WAR T he Coral Springs Museum of Art is one of 1,800 museums across America now offering free admission to all active duty military personnel and their families. The offer runs through Labor Day (Sept. 2). It’s part of a collaboration called Blue Star Museums, with support from the National Endowment for the Arts, Blue Star Families, and the Department of Defense. “As we build partnerships and collaborations within our community, we need to remember our active service members, and their families, by inviting them to participate in

our creative world here at home,” says Bryan W. Knicely, the museum’s executive director. “We can offer them a place and activities to take their minds off of their duty in order to connect with their families in our greater community.” The museum is also offering a contemporary Israeli art exhibit through Aug. 24. It features the work of David Schluss, an Israeli artist with a studio in Coral Springs. Schluss brought together 10 other Israeli artists who are sculptors and painters. www.csmart.org

B

e honest. When you hear someone say, “Let’s go to a museum,” you’re probably not thinking, “That’s the most exciting entertainment option I’ve heard today!” But Broward County has museums that are good for more than just field trips for the kids. And even the children’s museums have enough verve to keep parents interested. Here are our Top 5...

01. MUSEUM OF ART FORT LAUDERDALE How has the Internet changed art museums? They’re no longer just for standing in front of two-dimension paintings. Inside this venerable downtown Fort Lauderdale edifice, you can attend wine and food events (our favorite title: “Homage to Fromage”) and sign the kids up for intensive two-week summer arts programs. And you can see art that isn’t what you might expect. Recent exhibits have included works from Andy Warhol and some scary-looking sculptures from New Guinea and Peru. One of the most popular past exhibits featured Princess Diana’s dresses. www.moafl.org

02. MUSEUM OF Discovery & Science Good children’s museums are like good children’s movies: There’s something thrown in for the adults, even if the target audience doesn’t get it. If you’ve ever attended any of the live animal shows or science presentations, you know what we mean. Also fascinating for the older folks: the playful otters and the creepy spiders. Then, of course, there’s the 3D IMAX theater, which shows major-release hits like Man of Steel as well as documentaries about oceans and butterflies. www.mods.org

to understand that.) The museum is cleverly split into four “scape” sections, from Greenscapes to Culturescapes. All are interactive. For instance, Artscapes allows you to paint on a cave wall and draw your own Victorian-era self-portrait. www. youngatartmuseum.org

04. CORAL SPRINGS Museum of Art The problem with Broward musuems is their location. Most are east. This one is only a teenager – 16 years old – but it’s literally carved out a niche for itself. The sculpture garden is the big draw here, from Zimbabwe black granite to colorful metal by Romero Britto. www.csmart.org

05. ART & CULTURE Center of Hollywood The smallest museum on this list is also the most eccentric. Located in a former funeral home – the main gallery is where the chapel was – the center has featured everything from a Lego sculpture exhibit to shadowpuppet shows. This is a museum you can feel comfortable visiting in jeans and a T-shirt. www. artandculturecenter.org

must HEAR LOCAL MUSIC ACTS

DAN SWEENEY

W

hen Dan Sweeney began covering local music, it was 2000, and the South Florida scene was for teenagers and twentysomethings. Now, the award-winning critic is 36 years old with two children – and last year, some of his stories were obituaries for local musicians (Dan Hosker of The Holy Terrors and Bobby Johnston of Load). You know you’ve been doing something for a long time when your interview subjects start dying. So Lifestyle asked Sweeney to list five bands that local adults would enjoy hearing live. Here are his Top 5, in no particular order...

22

01. JOEL DASILVA and the Midnight Howl Even after a couple of years with his own band, the Midnight Howl, DaSilva probably remains more well-known for his previous group, the Hep Cat Boo Daddies, with which he played for just over a decade. But where that band trafficked mainly in swinging rockabilly-style rave ups – the name sort of gives away the genre – DaSilva’s work with his new band is much more bluesbased. In fact, the group has already become a leading light of the South Florida blues scene. DaSilva and company reached the semifinals – just one round out from the final competition – of the International Blues Challenge, a nationwide battle of the blues bands held in Memphis. And at a showcase of blues guitar work put on by the South Florida Blues Society on May 26, DaSilva’s group served as the backing band for all the featured guitarists.

02. ALBERT Castiglia

Speaking of blues guitarists, Albert Castiglia has been playing guitar and singing in South Florida since the early 1990s, and served as guitarist for the great harmonica player Junior Wells’ touring band. Now, he occasionally embarks on national tours, and will tour Europe next April, but when he’s not doing all of that, you can catch him at any number of local joints, keeping his hands dirty by playing out like any other band. In fact, June sees the guitarist playing a bunch of gigs from Key West to Boca Raton before leaving South Florida to run around the country throughout the summer festival season. So, catch him this month, or wait until the Legendary Rhythm and Blues Cruise pulls out of Fort Lauderdale in October.

JULY 2013 | LIFESTYLEMAGAZINEGROUP.COM

03. CRAZY Fingers

Relive the misspent days of your youth by hitting up South Florida’s own Grateful Dead cover band. It seems every major metropolitan area has at least one tribute act keeping the dream alive; there’s even a site, GratefulDeadTributeBands. com, that attempts to catalog every act in the trade. Crazy Fingers is better than most, to the point that if old Deadheads close their eyes at the group’s regular gigs on Sundays at Boston’s on the Beach in Delray or Thursdays at the Funky Biscuit in Boca, they can almost fool themselves into thinking it’s the boys themselves, circa late 1980s or early 1990s.

04. SPAM Allstars

Combining Latin and electronic influences, the Spam Allstars provide a soundtrack to Miami better than any other band in the area. The group, led by DJ Le Spam, includes nine members and has had a regular Thursday gig at the Miami club Hoy Como Ayer since 2001. If you feel the need to move, these Thursday night free-for-alls are the place to be, attracting hip-shaking fans from around the area.

05. CAT Shell

Singer/songwriter Cat Shell has been a force in local music for about half a decade, since the release of her first album, 2007’s Cat’s Outta the Bag. She blends some modern R&B and pop sensibilities with a strong influence from the female jazz crooners of half a century ago, folks like Nina Simone and Etta James, as well as more-modern jazz-inflected singers like Norah Jones and Diana Krall. Her songs share themes with those other chanteuses as well – finding love, losing it, regrets, and hopes.

Looking at music in a new way How a lazy eye and a clever dad have given country rocker Tommy Dalton his shot at the big time BY BY YE EMILY EMILY MI M ILY YB BLOCH BLOCH LOCH LO CH

28

JULY 2013 | LIFESTYLEMAGAZINEGROUP.COM

Tommy Dalton’s childhood dream was to be a Major League baseball player. The Hollywood native grew up watching the New York Yankees on TV. And in person. “The Yankees did spring training here, so I was always going there and hounding them, getting autographs,” Dalton says. He also played catcher in Hollywood Hills Baseball Little League at Rotary Park. But when he was 15, Dalton literally had trouble keeping his eye on the ball. His doctor told him he had degenerative amblyopia, commonly known as “lazy eye.” It meant his left eye was slightly impaired – and there was no cure. It wouldn’t be noticeable to anyone looking at him, but it would definitely hurt his ability to hit a Major League pitch or field a pop fly. Dalton vividly recalls that conversation with his doctor: “I remember him saying that if I was ever to get hit and lose vision in my good eye, I’d be legally blind and not be able to do certain things – like drive a car. I wanted to be a professional baseball player my whole life, since I was four years old. Then it was like, ‘Wow, what am I going to do now?’” His father, Todd Trombetta, tried cheering up his son by distracting him. He took him to a Goo Goo Dolls concert. “He was really getting into it,” says Trombetta, who stood with his son in the fifth row of the Pompano Beach Amphitheater. Dalton caught a guitar pick tossed into the crowd by frontman Johnny Rzeznik. “I still have that pick,” Dalton says. After the concert, he asked his father for guitar lessons. Trombetta bought him an Ibanez acoustic guitar, and Dalton still has that, too. Now Dalton is poised for his shot at success. This summer, he’s touring in support of his independently released self-titled album, and its first single, “Sweet.” His father is his manager, and he’s doing a few things differently than most aspiring local acts.

1. GO TO SCHOOL Three weeks after giving his teenaged son that guitar, Trombetta booked him his first performances – in middle and elementary schools.

Richie supa and tommy dalton

“It was just me and an acoustic guitar,” Dalton says. “I did career days and talked about drug awareness.” As he gained experience, Dalton graduated to playing shows at the Hollywood Beach Bandshell, Sunfest, and Footy’s Wing Ding. The gigs got bigger and the audiences got older, but the music didn’t change much. “I’ve always liked country,” Dalton says. “I always listened to country. I was always writing the same songs back then as now – very story-type songs, and that’s a lot of what country’s about.” Lesson: Too many musicians play too many nightclubs. Explore every opportunity to play to an audience.

But like his father, Dalton thought differently. He met everyone he could in Nashville, whether they were country artists or not. And that’s where he began collaborating with Richard “Richie” Supa, a songwriter and guitarist recognized for his work with Aerosmith, Pink, and Ozzy Osbourne, among others. Supa was immediately impressed. “He’s an up-and-coming singer, and I thought he was really talented,” he says. “He’s got a great sound and a great look – all the pieces you need to make it in this business.” Supa has written several songs with

2. GET OUT OF TOWN

“I always listened to country. I was always writing the same songs back then as now – very story-type songs, and that’s a lot of what country’s about.”

If you play country music, you eventually have to head to Nashville. It’s almost a law. So in 2009, Dalton moved to the country music capital of the world. He did what many new musical arrivals do. He played on street corners for tips. “Being there, it’s like putting yourself in a fishbowl,” Dalton says. “So many people there are in the music business. It pushes you to be competitive.” Dalton ended up working with award-winning country artists such as Grammy-winning guitarist Brent Mason (who co-produced his album) and singer Jake Owen (who he opened for last year).

Dalton, even lending him a tune he originally intended for Aerosmith lead singer Steven Tyler. It’s called “Oxygen.” “I wrote that with my buddy Brett James, who has written a ton of hits for Kenny Chesney,” Supa says. “We wrote ‘Oxygen’ for Steven back when he was talking about coming to Nashville and

doing a country-bluesy solo album outside of Aerosmith, but it never did happen. So I played it for Tommy, and he loved it. It clicked.� Lesson: Don’t just network with those in your immediate circle. Meet everyone you possibly can.

3. PAY ATTENTION TO EXPENSES Coincidentally, Supa has a house in Plantation, and Dalton sees his mentor whenever he returns to Broward County – which is often, because Dalton records here. In fact, his father bought into a recording studio just so he wouldn’t have to keep paying for studio time. Eight years ago, Trombetta became half-owner of Sunower Studios in downtown Hollywood. It was money well spent, he says. “Tommy was able to come in here and work whenever he wanted,â€? Trombetta says. “He was here all the time, recording and learning the process how to engineer songs.â€? That meant taking his time to polish each song, instead of looking at the clock. It’s quickly paid for itself. “We were spending a good amount of money recording,â€? Trombetta says, “and I made the decision, ‘Hey we need to be in a situation where we could work at our leisure and not have to pay.’â€? Lesson: Owning is sometimes better than renting.

4. SELL THE SONGS Dalton has an endorsement deal with True Religion brand jeans – because a couple years ago, Trombetta says, “He wrote a song about their jeans called ‘Damn Jeans.’� The song – available on YouTube, just search “Dalton Damn Jeans� – even played on Sirius XM Radio’s Nashville Channel. Emboldened by the True Religion deal, Dalton is attempting something similar with his new single, “Sweet.� “We’re actually gonna try and secure a major ice tea company like Arizona who has a peach tea,� Tromebtta says. “That’s one of the things I feel Tommy has at his advantage. I feel he’s very marketable.� Lesson: Don’t be afraid to sell what you got.

“We’ve done as much as we can on our own,� Trombetta says. “We’re putting out our own record. We’re putting it on the radio. We’ve done it all ourselves, and we’re hoping one of two things happen: Either we make enough noise in Nashville independently and a major label picks him up, or we make enough noise where a South Florida investor will see what we’ve done and come aboard and we can just continue on with our own label.� And if that’s not enough, Trombetta has no apologies or regrets. “I’m dad,� he says fondly. “A lot of parents put a lot of pressure on their kids to follow a certain path, but I’ve always been the kind of dad who’s kind of their best friend and lets them do whatever it is they’d like to do. “I believe in his talent, I believe in his abilities. I’m very supportive.� Lesson: Always lean on family. www.tommydalton.com

Puppet Master

Jim Hammond builds puppets from $10 to $10,000. So is he an artist or a businessman? The answer is yes. By Ryan Cortes P hotos by Downtownphoto/Fort Lauderdale LIFESTYLEMAGAZINEGROUP.COM | JULY 2013

33

This puppet, called Tiki Man, isn’t for sale. But you can rent him (and Jim Hammond and other puppets) for a 45-minute show. The cost? Up to $4,000.

34

Jim Hammond sits alone in his Fort Lauderdale studio, with the lights off save for one lamp on his desk. But he’s not a depressed artist. He’s a savvy businessman. It’s a Saturday night in late May, and he’s part of Art Walk, a monthly open house for the artists who rent space in FAT Village. The unfortunate acronym stands for Flagler Arts & Technology, a four-block artists’ community in downtown Fort Lauderdale, bordered by railroad tracks and Maguires Hill 16, a popular Irish pub. The Art Walks are intended to attract locals to check out struggling artists, who sell their work out of former warehouses now carved into small galleries. But by the time you read this, Hammond will have shuttered his FAT Village studio. He didn’t fail. He succeeded too much. On this summer evening, two couples stroll in – one pushing a stroller. As they gaze at the puppets literally hanging around the studio, the baby starts wailing. Without a pause, Hammond whips around with a puppet called “Tiki Man,” his twofoot creation with bulging eyes, long white teeth, and blue hair.

JULY 2013 | LIFESTYLEMAGAZINEGROUP.COM

“You doing all right?” he asks the baby. Well, the puppet is asking. “Dude, it’s so trippy being a baby. Imagine if I was a set of keys being jingled.” He jerks the puppet back and forth. “Jingle, jingle, jingle.” The baby stops crying. The parents are impressed. But they don’t buy Tiki Man. He costs up to $4,000 for a 45-minute outdoor show and he isn’t for sale — he’s only for rent. Hammond custombuilds his creations for companies and commercials. And they’re usually not children’s toys. In fact, Hammond says… “Puppetry has never been just for kids. Give any adult a puppet, and they do one

Jim builds and thinks about it for a staff of people – and he hires people. He has a certain synergy, and it’s rare.” Rare enough that Hammond is the only business of his kind in South Florida. He’s sold and rented puppets since 2009, and he says he’s made money every year – even during this “challenging economy.” “From a financial standpoint, helping people fabricate their work is a better business plan than creating your own work,” he says. “He is the only person that I’ve ever met that does what he specifically does,” says Chuck Loose, owner of a FAT Village screen-

Hammond has many hands helping him, from the president of the South Florida Puppet Guild (top right), to people who just strolled into his studio... of two things: Either the puppets beat each other up or they make out. It’s the core of what we don’t want to talk about – sex and violence.”

This isn’t child’s play Hammond’s puppets have appeared as characters in TV commercials and as props in the Lion King Broadway show. He sells them and even rents them. But he doesn’t do what most people think a puppeteer does: Host a low-rent Muppet-like show for kids all by himself in an elementary school. “A lot of puppeteers, they’ll build a show, book a show, and perform the show. Jim is different,” says Dave Goboff, the president for the last decade of the South Florida Puppet Guild, a group of puppeteers and puppet lovers who meet monthly. “He has a bigger scope, so whereas I might build a show for myself and perform it,

printing company called Iron Forge Press. “I’ve met a few puppeteers, but none of them have a studio or a solid business foundation like Jim.” Last month, Hammond left his 800-square-foot studio in FAT Village for a 8,000-square-foot warehouse in Wilton Manors, where he plans to expand both the size of his business and the size of his puppets. Some of his creations take four people to maneuver. “We’re bursting at the seams,” he told the two couples that night of the last Art Walk as he sat in his old studio. Hammond also needs more room for his employees. He currently has 4-5 parttimers helping him fabricate his creations in any given week. They also help him brainstorm. “I’m a collaborator,” he says. “I don’t want to be a

solo act.” But becoming a puppet businessman is different than being a puppet artist, Hammond learned. “When you first start off, you’re just excited that someone’s buying your product, that someone wants to have your vision as part of their life experience,” he says. “As you move deeper into your career, you realize, ‘Oh man, there’s some hard costs that are involved in the creation of this puppet.’ A $5,000 puppet or $10,000 puppet typically will cost me 40 percent of that in materials and transportation and labor costs.” Hammond admits he gets strange looks when he tells people what he does for a living – and stranger looks when they hear the prices. “It’s not a matter of respect, it’s a matter of surprise, because this is so specific,” Hammond says. “With the mission we have – an entertainment firm that is focused primarily on puppet theatre, puppet fabrication, and puppet design – we’re it in South Florida.” Hammond’s wife, Shelly Bradshaw, doesn’t get the same kinds of questions, because her job – while also in the business of culture – is much easier to grasp. She’s vice president of operations at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts in downtown Fort Lauderdale. But when she attends business functions or parties with her husband, she hears him asked the same couple of questions: “Is that a job? People do that?” It wasn’t always a job. But he did always do it.

Everything is a puppet Growing up in a small town in southern New York called Hoosick Falls, Hammond didn’t play with toys the way other kids did. A Matchbox car was alive – the headlights were the eyes, the grill was the mouth, and soon enough, the car wasn’t just a car. When he was 8, Hammond began performing puppet shows in his backyard for neighbors, for family, for fun. His puppets were sometimes sticks with rocks for eyeballs. “An object was never an object to me,” he recalls. “I would never walk through the woods and just see trees.” When Hammond was 11, his father was diagnosed with cancer. Tumors at the base of his brain rendered him a quadriplegic. “I remember he had these open wounds at his neck,” Hammond says. “We’d occasionally see the bandages pulled away, and he just had these big holes where they pulled out the tumors.” Hammond’s father died two years later — he was 41. Hammond is now 43.

JULY 2013 | LIFESTYLEMAGAZINEGROUP.COM

The puppets on the left? They cost $10,000. The one above? $10. The animated chairs appeared on a local T V commercial for Boca Bargoons, a South Florida fabric company. The creation above, held by Rodriguez and Gerstel, was put together with nothing but items from a dollar store.

“I think it’s complicated for any child to watch a parent suffer,” says his sister Vicky, an administrator for a health foundation in Washington, DC. “And I think his art was an early creative outlet to express himself.” Hammond agrees: “It was tough, but I wouldn’t be the person I am today if I hadn’t gone through it. It was probably therapeutic. I could create little worlds where I could have control and the outcomes could be pretty and the end of the fairy tales could be good.” They were about to get really good.

From Burger King to the Lion King After his father died, the family moved an hour away to Saratoga Springs, where the 16-year-old Hammond worked in a Burger King before landing a job at a nearby amusement park called The Great Escape. It had a puppet theater, and he was a puppeteer. Within a year, he was the puppet theater manager.

For four years, Hammond managed or performed 21 shows a day. It helped pay for college, where he studied performance and production design at SUNY. He got his graduate degree from the University of Connecticut – in puppeteering. It’s a major offered by less than a dozen schools nationwide. Hammond met his wife Shelly in Connecticut, and they coincidentally both got job offers in South Florida, almost at the same time. Shelly became the technical director at the Broward Center, while her husband was hired by the Florida Grand Opera to help with props and production. They knew nothing about South Florida, and they didn’t care. “We were artists with four art degrees between the two of us,” Hammond says. “And it was important to find something so we wouldn’t default on our loans.” In 2003, the touring Broadway production of The Lion King was in town at the Broward Center, and Hammond

applied to work backstage. After that, “I was on the road,” he says. For six and a half years. Sometimes it was months before he saw Shelly again. He says it was “hellacious,” but his wife understood. “It was certainly an upsetting conversation to have,” Shelly says. “We hadn’t been married very long and I’m not sure I was quite prepared for him to take off, but I was thrilled that he was going to be able to pursue his dreams. It was the best way for him to hone his skills.”

The return home In 2009, he finally left The Lion King and returned to South Florida and Shelly. He opened his Puppet Network studio in FAT Village. His success might have surprised others, but not him. “I’m a pain in the ass, man. I’m going to work and work and work to make it happen,” he says with a laugh. Success meant more work than

His 26-year-old assistant Luiz Rodriguez says he can work 9 to 5 on “low-production days” – and 9 a.m. to midnight on “high-production days.” He doesn’t mind. “I have no problem coming in here,” he says. “I love it.” Like the other assistants, Rodriguez wasn’t hired from a Monster.com ad. “I literally just wandered into his shop, and I was like, ‘Wow,’” he says. It was during one of those Art Walks five years ago that Rodriguez

chatted with Hammond for an hour. They talked about an event that Hammond adores but makes him no money at all: The annual Day of the Dead, a parade of puppets that will wind through Fort Lauderdale in November. Hammond says the “community event” is inspired by a Mexican holiday of the same name. Rodriguez was born in Mexico and says, “I was weirded out because he was a white dude with long blonde hair trying to do a Mexican festival.” Skeptical, Rodriguez says, “I just had to make sure he knew what he was doing. The great thing is, he respects the religious and cultural aspects [of Mexico] and I was really blown away.” Now settled in his new studio, Hammond is already thinking about his next big project: Puppet Network on TV. “What I would love to do,” he says, “is actually create a television network that is focused entirely on puppet theater and puppetry.” Twenty-four hours of puppets and plays? “Sounds almost as crazy as someone wanting to put cartoons on all day,” he says smiling. “Doesn’t it?” Doubt him at your own peril.

Day of the Dead 2013 On Saturday, Nov. 3, Jim Hammond invites you to his fourth annual puppet parade in honor of the dead. The free event is an ode to Mexican culture. Hammond calls it a “memory for the dead, party for the living.” Last year, nearly 7,000 people showed up in the streets of FAT Village. Hammond expects closer to 10,000 people this year, and he’s expanding the route, which will weave through the downtown Riverwalk district.

Our families often wish they had called months sooner. “We all felt such a sense of relief as soon as we were in Hospice’s care. We had a team of medical experts who were always there for us. Their loving care gave my mother the encouragement to go forward. They gave her the sense that each day of her life was worthwhile. This restored her hope and gave her a wonderful sense of peace.�

RELAY RALLY By Regina Kaza

THE EVENT The first annual Relay Rally brings together 24 Relay for Life teams for one common goal: beating cancer. Relay teams from each city in Broward will meet at Blue Martini at the Galleria Mall to raise some last-minute money for the American Cancer Society. “We’ve been so focus-driven on money and numbers that only positive things can come out of this,” says Lindsay Mapica, Weston Rally’s fundraising chair and Relay Rally’s organizer. Weston Rally raised $238,695.58 last year, the most in its history. Relay for Life’s fundraising year ends the day after this event, and ticket sales will boost each city’s annual donation before the total count. Guests can choose which city to donate their ticket proceeds to, and they enjoy a drink ticket along with some light hors d’oeuvres inside. “It does get competitive,” Mapica says. “But imagine what all cities in Broward can do together.” Mapica is expecting around 150 people for a night filled with silent auctions, raffles, and various prizes to support those battling cancer across the world. THE CAUSE More than a million people in the United States are diagnosed with cancer each year. The American Cancer Society is the premier national nonprofit organization funding research towards finding a cure as well as patient facilities and support programs. Through events like Relay for Life, the Society has helped almost 14 million cancer survivors celebrate more birthdays. Every year, Relay for Life events held at local schools feature a survivors lap, inspirational ceremonies, and a candle-lit walk honoring those who lost their lives to cancer. Each Relay team organizes its own fundraiser to support cancer awareness and research. More than 4 million people in more than 20 countries have annually raised more than $400 million through the Relay For Life movement.

BUSINESS STYLE

CORPORATE & ARTISTIC MUSIC CAN SOOTHE THE SOUL, BUT CAN IT SELL EMPLOYEES ON A COMPANY’S MISSION? story and photos By Michael Koretzky

O

n the first Saturday of last month, 20 Hilton sales managers from around the country met at the Gallery One hotel along the Intracoastal in Fort Lauderdale. Over a lunch of mojo spiced pork loin and shrimp kabobs, they sculpted with Play Doh and wrote a song. And it was all business. These global sales managers flew in from Virginia, Dallas, New York, and Washington, D.C., so they could brainstorm better ways to sell the Hilton brand in Broward County. Kimberly Miller, Gallery One’s sales and marketing director, wined and dined them. But she also wanted to blow their minds. So Miller hired 43-year-old Jeff Jacob to lead a two-hour team-building exercise. He didn’t foist them into awkward role-playing skits or onto a nerve-wracking ropes course. Instead, the Nashville songwriter/guitarist taught these top salespeople how to pen a pop tune. And it was “awesome,” Miller says. “It helps bring different levels of team members together, striving for the same common cause,” Miler says. “A senior leader can learn so much about what their team feels and faces just from the clay-building step of the songwriting process – adults can easily revert to children when need to!” Miller met Jacob through Lois Marino, BBX Capital’s community relations manager in Fort Lauderdale. Marino is also the program manager for Art in the Workplace, which “fuses the arts into the business community by doing teambuilding exercises.” Marino says the idea came from her boss, BBX Capital’s president Jarett Levan. “He’s a big supporter of the arts,” Marino says, “and he’s made it a part of my job.” So Marino’s Art in the Workplace program has hooked up big Broward businesses like BGT Partners and the Stiles Corporation with workshops that include dancing interpretively and making tie-dye bags. “It really does work,” she says. “It takes employees out of their everyday world.” Marino joined the GalleryOne workshop and raved afterward, “That was so much fun! I had to write a song with people I barely knew. But by the end of it, I knew Hilton’s managers and its mission.” Those words are, quite literally, music to Jeff Jacob’s ears. He’s co-founder of The Song Team, a 3-year-old national training firm that uses music to “hit the mental reset button.” This year, he’s on pace to do 30 programs just like GalleryOne’s. The week before he visited Fort Lauderdale, Jacob and his team trained 300 employees at a credit union in Muscle Shoals, Alabama. And when he left Lauderdale, he headed to the University of Indianapolis – revisiting his very first client from January 2011. (Jacob adds with a grin, “We’re starting to get what every speaker needs: repeat business and spinoffs.”)

Other clients have included major corporations like DaVita (one of the nation’s largest kidney care companies) and Emdeon (a major healthcare system provider of revenue and payment management systems). “Healthcare is definitely a growing segment,” Jacob says. The reason is simple: Industries in upheaval, both for good or bad reasons, need to motivate their employees to think differently and quickly. “This is the equivalent of speed dating,” Jacob says. “We’re writing a song real fast.” Unlike traditional training exercises that can take an entire morning, afternoon, or even a day, Jacob wrapped his in two hours. But how does he compare on cost? Jacob doesn’t want to talk price, but he does say, “Our programs are very affordable for small and mid-sized organizations.” Bottom line, he says: Anyone who’s hired a traditional trainer can hire an artistic one. “If you can afford that,” he says. “You can afford this.”

CORPORATE MUSIC MAKING When the Gallery One hotel sought a corporate trainer last month, it hired a Nashville guitarist named Jeff Jacob. His company, The Song Team, leads team-building exercises that work like this...

THE HOOK Jacob speaks with his company contact about the goals of the exercise, working off a 12-question sheet he’s developed. From there, he writes the “hook” of a song, along with the chorus. For GalleryOne, that included, “Fort Lauderdale is more than you see/Each hotel is quite unique/We got shops and we got art/It’s really kinda tough to know where to start/When it comes to our Hilton family.”

THE INTRO

Kim miller

Jacob shows a five-minute video featuring The Beatles and Rolling Stones that ends with the revelation that few hit songs are the work of one person. Jacob told the GalleryOne group that in 2011, the biggest pop hits of that year had “an average of 4.1 songwriters.” Lesson: We all have to work together.

THE PLAY DOH Jacob has learned to mix his media. He divides the room into teams and gives them specific emotions to shape out of Play Doh in 15 minutes. Example: A Gallery One group had to sculpt how they feel on Sunday before having to go to work on Monday. The themes that emerge from those sculpture become the lyrics of the song.

THE WRITING This is the longest and “funnest” part, Jacob says. On a flipboard, the group assembles stanzas. The discussion focuses on the goals and fears of the group. In this case, Hilton sales managers expressed concerns about the lingering perception of Fort Lauderdale as “Fort Liquordale,” a spring break hangout unsuitable for an older and more affluent crowd. Jacob says his job was to help them brainstorm solutions while also writing lyrics. “I’m not trying to dictate,” he says. “I’m trying to collaborate.” For more information on artistic team-building, email Lois Marino at lmarino@bfabroward.org LIFESTYLEMAGAZINEGROUP.COM | JULY 2013

LIVING LONGER & LOOKING BETTER ANTI-AGING WELLNESS IS AN EXCITING NEW CONCEPT IN MEDICINE!

DR. FERN TAISENCHOY-BENT, MD FACOG DR. IVONNE REYNOLDS, DO FACOOG

Northwest Medical Center Women’s Services 2801 North State Rd 7 Margate, FL 33063 Free Physician Referral Line- 888-256-7720

This is being driven by baby boomers that are living longer and looking better than their parents’ generation ever did. This sizzling group of individuals is not willing to accept being 80 years old in a wheelchair with Alzheimer’s and all joints aching from arthritis. They are destined to make 60’s the new 40’s. Some important factors that impact Aging/Disease are genetic makeup, environment, nutrition, exercise/ activity, personal care products, physiologic aging, hormone deficiency and stress. Additionally, every day we get exposed to TOXINS and FREE RADICALS that are mostly unavoidable. These are environmentally driven such as pollution, air travel and pesticides. Our lifestyle exposes us to sunlight, smoking, and greasy & processed food. We experience a lack of nutrition & exercise and exposure to harmful cosmetic & personal care products. Did You Know that…. More chemicals enter our bodies through our skin than through what we eat? Studies have shown that more than 1/3 of all personal care products contain at least one ingredient that has been related to cancer. All

of these lead to accumulation of internal toxins! There are serious consequences of aging. There is the increased risk of obesity, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer, and Alzheimer’s/Dementia. This is not an acceptable option! THE HEART TRUTH® Most women do not know that heart disease is their own greatest health risk. Heart disease is largely preventable. Women can take action to protect their hearts. Heart disease is a “now” problem, “later” may be too late. There are many forms of heart disease, coronary artery disease, or coronary heart disease, which is most common. Heart disease develops over years and progresses when the heart doesn’t get enough nutrient-rich blood. WHY ME? WHY NOW? • Young women need to take steps to protect their heart health—since heart disease develops gradually and can start at a young age. • Risk rises in women ages 40 to 64 » Estrogen levels drop during menopause which may cause heart artery blockages » Many women develop one or more risk factors for heart disease during these years • Older women also need to take action against their risks—it is never too late for women to protect their heart health HEART DISEASE RISK FACTORS: • Beware of The Multiplier Effect

1. Risk Factor doubles your risk 2. Risk Factors quadruple your risk 3. 3 or more Risk Factors can increase your risk more than tenfold • By doing just 4 things – eating right, being physically active, not smoking, and keeping a healthy weight – you can lower your risk of heart disease by as much as 82 percent! HEALTHY AGING There are safe and natural alternatives with lifestyle modifications and traditional and natural medicine you can optimize healthy aging. • Get Active (Exercise) » Yoga • Eat Better (Take Supplements) » Berries (Especially Blue Berries) » Green Tea » Red Wine » Broccoli • Lose Weight • Stop Smoking • Sleep • Use Non Toxic Personal Care Products • Hormone Deficiency Replacement • Go for fiber and phytonutrients • Go for the good fats PREVENTION BEGINS WITH YOU Remember that 60’s is the New 40’s and our Anti-Aging solutions can take you there…

TURN BACK THE CLOCK IN MINUTES! “OFTEN A 1 TREATMENT WOW” …. THE DEEP, FRACTIONAL CO2 MICRO-ABLATIVE LASER The newest advances in Laser Technology have revolutionized “Gold Standard” CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing!! With another new technology Upgrade, we now offer “Multi-Pulse” a Deep CO2 Microablative laser that can safely and precisely remove outer layers of damaged skin and penetrate via millions of microthermal zones to reveal the underlying skin and create brand new skin which is softer, smoother and often dramatically, younger looking. It also stimulates the regeneration of healthy skin underneath (called “Laser Skin Renewal”), for a dramatically youthful and beautiful appearance! This superlative skin resurfacing – rejuvenation procedure will reverse years of sun damage, wrinkles, scars and many other skin imperfections in just minutes. When compared to other forms of laser treatment, the new “Deep” CO2 micro ablative is the new “Gold Standard” for rapid and optimal enhancement in as littleas 1 treatment! Our patients, ranging in age from 13 to 81 say that “The micro ablation removes sun damaged skin and makes it fresher looking; the second part called “bulk heating” improves collagen and elastic fibers deep down that improve deep to moderate wrinkles”. It’s also great for removing all types of scars, safe anywhere on the face, body or hands and we are even using it on stretch marks. By fractioning the laser beam into microscopic beams, a specific portion of the skin is left unharmed, which is more conducive to healing. This fractional method enables cells

to begin healing within 24 hours and the comfortable downtime can be adjusted to fit your busy schedule for 3 to 7 days – versus two months with the original CO2 laser. “The new “Non-Surgical Laser Facelift or Eye Lift” can take years off a person’s appearance and give them better looking skin than someone many years younger,” noted Dr. Aguilera. Our other popular cosmetic procedures include Botox, Dysport and Dermal fillers to replenish the volume of fat loss and bone loss on the face. Fillers take care of the volume and folds while the laser takes care of the skin’s texture, tone and elasticity. Dr. Shino Bay Aguilera is in fact, #1 in Sculptra Aesthetic Treatments in the entire USA!! No one treats more patients with Sculptra Aesthetic and is a Platinum level Top Injector and Physician Trainer for all the major injectables! Dr. Aguilera has trained thousands of physicians and is extremely knowledgeable about the concepts and applications of skin laser and cosmetic injectable technologies. His unique ability to provide patients with a dramatically younger, more energetic look makes him an in-demand cosmetic dermatologist - and as holder of two board certifications and a Fellowship in Dermatology from the American Osteopathic College of Dermatology, an Asst. Professor of Dermatology for 5 Universities and the Before Chief Medical Director

THE RIGHT FIT: HOW TO SELECT YOUR NEXT MARKETING FIRM TODD TEMPLIN

Boardroom Communications

1776 N Pine Island Road Suite 320 Fort Lauderdale, FL 33322 954.370.8999 www.BoardroomPR.com Whether you run a retail shop, a law or accounting firm, or a medical practice, interviewing and selecting a marketing firm can be an intimidating process. If you’ve never done it before, it can be a daunting task. You may call friends or post a status update to Facebook or LinkedIn seeking referrals. You could ask peers at your next networking breakfast. But in the end, it comes down to you, your team – and the marketing firms you eventually contact. How can you ensure a smooth selection process in finding a suitable marketing firm? Success can be condensed down to two words: Results and culture. Results prove they can do the work. Culture shows you can work together. Each is as vital as the other. In fact, when small companies hire vendors or contractors, how the two get along is essential to long-term success.

still can fail. Culture is something you’ll likely feel – deeply – from the first meeting. In a word, do the firms “Grok,” or intimately, profoundly or completely share your mindset or thinking? Truth be told, no one may. But look for the one that comes closest in this eye-to-eye point of view. It’s powerful – and irreplaceable.

service. You want a partner whose senior executives anticipate and are responsive to the needs of your organization. When you win, they win. When you come up short, they admit their role and commit to collaborating on improvement. PROVEN TRACK RECORD. Have the firms you’re interviewing worked in your field – and have the results to show for it? They’ll all talk the talk. Instead, ask for newspaper clips, social media links, print ads or other deliverables that prove – beyond their promises – that they’ve delivered. Tease out details about their network of connections in your industry. Do they know the people, the trends and the places they’ll need today to ensure your company’s success tomorrow? BROAD MARKETING ACUMEN – especially in social media. Being able to pitch a press release, build a tradeshow presence or create a display ad isn’t enough any longer. Today’s marketing campaigns require social media. This includes website development, blogging, social networking like a Facebook fan page, a robust LinkedIn presence or a Twitter feed – all seamlessly interwoven into a holistic marketing campaign. CULTURAL FIT. We’re not talking jeans versus suits here. These can co-exist – and the relationship

•

LIST OF REFERENCES. That a connection on LinkedIn or a trusted ally of 20 years made the referral isn’t enough. Ask each marketing firm for at least three to five references from clients in businesses not much different from your own. Then, call those references. Ask about the agency’s strengths and weaknesses, its power and shortcomings. If the reference has nothing but high regards for the firm, you may be left wondering if you’re getting an honest assessment.

In the end, your selection of a marketing partner should be just the first step in a productive, profitable and enduring relationship. It’s about creating The Right Fit.

DINING STYLE

LOOKS GOOD, TASTES GREAT BY REGINA KAZA

Grateful Palate Restaurant and Wine Bar

Fine dining is like fine art – you get what you pay for, and imitations are obvious. Broward County has many excellent restaurants serving sophisticated meals in stunning settings, so it’s impossible to list them all. But here are three of our favorites…

817 SE 17th Street Fort Lauderdale 954-467-1998 thegratefulpalate.net

Some local restaurants that focus on appearances – and one that doesn’t

Mojo 4140 N Federal Highway Fort Lauderdale 954-568-4443 www.facebook.com/mojofl Mojo’s decor is island-café-meets-modern-art-gallery, with each wall decked in floor-to-ceiling paintings on sale for $500 to $8,000. The artist? He’s also the executive chef and owner, Dominick Falcoine. The self-taught artist’s Modern American menu is just as artistic with Italian and Asian flair. “I love to cook, and I love to paint,” Falcoine says. “The concept was the art of food and the paintings. It’s just something I like to do.” He also likes striped booths and turquoise and orange accents that

62

give off a Key West vibe. His favorite and prettiest dish is the grilled duck breast with red sauerkraut and apples alongside a goat cheese puree ($26). And his favorite painting? An abstract piece of a jazz musician playing a bugle, priced at $3,000.

JULY 2013 | LIFESTYLEMAGAZINEGROUP.COM

Sometimes, art is on the inside. The Grateful Palate is on the end of a small shopping center – next door to a Subway, which is itself next door to a Dough Boys Pizzeria. The clean but nondescript sign on the outside doesn’t signal what’s past the front door: a 55-seat contemporary lounge style dining room with a wine cellar and an open kitchen. That’s because The Gourmet Palate got its start two decades ago as an upscale grocery store specializing in yacht provisions. In 2009, new owners gutted the place and added a living room-like area with couches and coffee tables. Other artsy touches: a decorative colored glass partition, a few granite-top tables, and a row of barstools facing the chef in the open kitchen. And when it comes to serving up artistic dishes, executive chef Hector Lopez favors the braised lamb shank ($29) or pan seared diver scallops ($30). “We treat every guest as a VIP,” he says. “If there’s a little grain of pepper on the plate, it won’t go out. People eat with their eyes first. If it doesn’t look good people won’t want to eat it.”

ARTISTIC MEALS DOWN SOUTH BY RANDI AILEEN PRESS, DINING DUCHESS

Sometimes, a good meal is worth a short drive. Since this is our annual arts issue, here are two of my favorite Miami restaurants that combine classic food with an artistic flair…

Wynwood Kitchen & Bar 2550 NW 2nd Avenue 305-722-8959 www.Wynwoodkitchenandbar.com

Market 17 1850 SE 17th St #109 Fort Lauderdale 954-835-5507 www.market17.net You want ambiance? Artwork? Plating? Pshaw. Market 17 wants to open your eyes to a new dining experience. It’s called Dining in the Dark. “You have dinner in complete darkness,” Executive Chef Lauren DeShields says. “Your senses heighten because of that, and it’s a really fun experience.” Market 17 admits cribbing the idea from Ctaste, an Amsterdam restaurant that invented the concept that’s been replicated around the world. But Market 17 is the only Broward restaurant offering the experience on a regular basis, which means the staff has gotten really good at it. There’s a dedicated “dark room” off the main dining room that seats two to 14. You greet your hostess in the light and discuss any food allergies and diet restrictions. But other than that, this is literally a blind tasting – you’ll be served a number of different tastes without knowing in advance what they are. Your sever will help you “locate and stabilize” your food and drink, and DeShields creates new dishes nightly just for the dark room. The four to eight courses ($75 per person) are filled with texture, are easy to eat, and available with blind wine pairings ($25).

Wynwood Kitchen and Bar (WKB) is Miami’s global-Latino dining destination, featuring graffiti art, “street art-inspired cocktails,” and live music. This is a big space – a warehouse environment with high ceilings covering 5,000 square feet, with 200 seats indoors and out. The interiors have an industrial feel, with dark oak tables surrounded by contemporary gun-metal chairs, comfortable taupe metallic leather banquettes in the dining room, and a leather-topped bar. An outdoor area features colorful chairs and tables surrounded by the murals of Wynwood Walls, a street art park featuring work by some of the world’s most esteemed graffiti artists. In May, WKB launched a series of chef/artist collaborative dinners, and the first one teamed executive chef Miguel Aguilar with Miami graffiti and street art scene artist Santiago Rubino. The weekly music series ranges from jazz quartets to singers/songwriters and DJs.

Barton G, The Restaurant 1427 West Avenue Miami Beach www.bartongtherestaurant.com Barton G. Weiss is Miami’s best-known events-and-culinary creator. His fans adore the creativity, his detractors loathe his excesses. But no one can deny his appeal. At his Miami restaurant – he has another in Los Angeles – your rare tuna might come to your table with a samurai sword stuck to a wooden slab. Your cocktail might have plumes of liquid nitrogen pouring over the edges. Your steak might be served with a 3-foot-long fork. Once you step inside “The Restaurant,” you’re in a lush tropical garden for al fresco dining. The interior cherry and zebra woods. The bar is made of onyx. But this isn’t shtick. The food tastes sublime, even if appearances can be cheerfully over the top. Don’t believe me? Try the “Big Top Cotton Candy” for dessert. LIFESTYLEMAGAZINEGROUP.COM | JULY 2013

STARRY NIGHTS

Markham Park in Sunrise is no secret. The sprawling county park has 10 miles of bike trails, 88 campground hookups, and even a 3.5acre dog park (affectionally known as Barkham Park). But few folks know about the Fox Observatory. It features, and we’re quoting from the South Florida Amateur Astronomers Association, which runs the observatory: “A pair of 16-inch and 14-inch Schmidt-Cassegrains, a Brandon refractor, three Dobson reflectors, and a 12-inch Newtonian.” If you don’t know what any of that means, show up any Saturday night at dusk for a free viewing through those telescopes and an astronomy lesson that’s better than any you’ll find in a book or video. www.sfaaa.com If you prefer to peruse the heavens without peering though a telescope, go to Broward College in Davie. In the middle of campus is the Buehler Planetarium, which boasts that its Zeiss M 1015 projector and its modern digital audiovisual equipment makes it “one of the most advanced planetariums in South Florida.” For $6, you can see amazing shows like “Cosmic Colors,” which dramatically shows you the night sky is more than black and white. www.iloveplanets.com

WARS AND CARS

It’s not a name that rolls off the tongue: The Naval Air Station Fort Lauderdale Museum. But it’s the only military museum in the county, and it features an anti-aircraft gun, bombs, uniforms, and models of ships and planes. Check out the “Broward Goes to War” exhibit through the month of August. www. nasflmuseum.com Speaking of WWII, the Fort Lauderdale Antique Car Museum features Packards from before the Big One. We’re talking a 1920 limo, a 1909 speedster, and a 1930 fire engine. Why Packard? Because as the museum staff will tell you, they’re “some of the finest automobiles in the world,” although they haven’t been made since 1958. Never heard of Packard? You should see one up close. www.antiquecarmuseum.org
