‘Eureka! The Art of Being’ debuts at Crystal Bridges By Alana Cook
Citizen.Editor.Eureka@gmail.com
Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art in Bentonville will host a special screening of the film “Eureka! The Art of Being” at 7 p.m. Wednesday, May 27, in the Great Hall. Opening the event is a special live performance by Grammy-nominated Native American flute player John Two-Hawks, who provided much of the film’s score and a showcase of works by Eureka Springs artists featured in the film. A panel discussion with the filmmakers and artists will take place after the screening. Since moving to Eureka Springs five years ago, Kai Robert has lent a hand to independent filmmakers working in the region. He was a boom operator for “Valley Inn,” a fish-out-of-water story set in Hindsville. He was a sound intern on “Greater: The Brandon Burlsworth Story,” about the Razorback football player from Harrison who went from walk-on to All-American. Robert was an assistant production coordinator for “So This is Christmas,” a Tulsa-based film starring Eric Roberts and Vivica Fox. He even helped make a hillbilly slasher film, “Madison County.” Along the way, Robert has kept his own project rolling — a feature-length documentary depicting the creative spirit of Eureka Springs. Titled “Eureka! The Art of Being,” it debuts on the big screen on Saturday, June 7, in the Auditorium. Robert directed the film and conducted interviews with the artists who appear in the film or are quoted in it. But you won’t hear his voice or see him on screen. “I wanted it to be through the artists’ own words,” Robert said. Robert didn’t know any local artists personally when he proposed the idea for the documentary to Bob Harris a few years ago. Harris, who has a media production company in Jonesboro, had worked with Robert on projects and talked to him about doing one of their own. With the idea for “Eureka,” they formed a production team with Sally Pace Smith, editor and sound mixer. The goal: to describe the creative spirit that flows through the Eu-
reka Springs community, which has more than 300 artists in a population of 2,000. The film also explores why artists come here and why they stay. “Not to disparage Arkansas — I was born here — but I look at Eureka as a unique oasis within Arkansas,” Robert said. Born in Walnut Ridge, near Jonesboro, Robert grew up in Grand Forks, N.D., and in Houston. But he always returned to Arkansas to spend summers with his paternal grandmother in Walnut Ridge. Movies were a passion when he was growing up, Robert said. He remembers seeing “Raiders of the Lost Ark” and being intrigued with the idea of the flawed hero. He attended high school in Swifton, Ark., where his father was a school counselor. After graduating in 1988, Robert majored in business at Arkansas State University, then worked for Premiere Video as a regional manager and buyer. The job entailed attending industry conferences in Las Vegas that featured appearances by Hollywood legends, including Lauren Bacall and Mickey Rooney, and rising stars like Scarlett Johansson. “I have a funny story about meeting Tony Bennett,” Robert said. He also met his future wife, Angela, through his job — a mutual friend introduced them in a video store in Jonesboro. They were married in 1997 and about a year later, started visiting Eureka Springs. Liking the Ozark landscape and local culture, they started talking about moving to Eureka Springs from Jonesboro. It was pipe dream, Robert said, until the day they were driving to Eureka Springs and decided they “might take a look at real estate,” with the idea of buying something in a year or two. “The first weekend we looked, we found a house,” Robert said. They bought the house and commuted for a year and half, then moved to Eureka Springs, where Robert set up his company, Quiet Center Films. The first artists he spoke to about doing a documentary on Eureka Springs were Gary Eagan and
Steve Beacham, who encouraged him to pursue it. Eagan, a potter, appears in the documentary, but has since passed away, as has street musician Roger Johnson, who was filmed playing his violin. The musical score produced by Two-Hawks includes music by guitarist Charles Hammer, who passed away in 2004. The producers decided to fund the project themselves, Robert said, working around other projects. Over a two-year period, they shot 30 hours of footage. To depict the diversity of artists living in Eureka Springs, Robert interviewed painters, sculptors, potters, a woodworker, musicians, poets and writers. He also wanted to show the respect and support the artists have for each other. “They may have different underlying views, but are truly willing to help each other,” Robert said. “One artist inspires another.” Robert said he learns something from each film project he works on and
Like us on Facebook
learned something from each artist he interviewed for the documentary. What Eagan said that stuck with him: that art should elicit a response, evoke an emotion, whether it’s positive or negative. It’s something he takes with him whenever he goes into a gallery or museum, he said. His main hope for the documentary: that it elicits a response from the audience, good or bad. “I was kidding with my wife that if they don’t care for the film, they’ll throw organic tomatoes,” Robert said. The Eureka Springs Arts Council presents the premiere of “Eureka! The Art of Being,” at the Auditorium on Saturday, June 7. The free event starts at 7 p.m. with an introduction by the producers. The feature-length film will be shown on a high-definition Christy projection system provided by the Arkansas Motion Picture Institute and the Arkansas Production Alliance. The event is free but seating is limited.

Four rescued from Kings River
Carroll County Special Operations Rescue Team rescued four people last Saturday who were stranded on a remote stretch of Kings River in northern Carroll County. A caller to the sheriff’s office last Saturday night said she heard voices in the darkness calling for help. Deputies were dispatched to the location and the county SORT was put on alert. The deputies confirmed that road access to the eastern bank of the river was possible
on CR 409 but the river conditions were dangerous and the victims were on the opposite bank. The SORT water rescue team drove their command vehicle and Zodiac rescue boat to the incident site. Four people had set out to float from the Grand View area but darkness and lack of familiarity with the river caused them to find a landing spot on the western side of the river. Although they were only two miles by road north of Grand View, they

had traveled five river miles and had no idea where to go for help. Swift water rescue specialists from SORT ferried the four victims across the flooding river while downstream spotters were ready with lights and throw ropes to catch anyone who needed help. SORT team members completed the rescue without incident and the four victims, a female adult, two teenage females and a male juvenile, were able to walk to the road vehicles for transport back to their point of origin. Jennifer Feltmann, SORT coordinator, expressed appreciation for the good sense of the lost people, remaining where they were instead of attempting a self-rescue. “They were in no condition to travel overland, having bare feet and swimsuits, and attempting to cross the river in those conditions would have been extremely hazardous,” she said. SORT is a volunteer group of local people who meet monthly for training in water, ropes, cave and wilderness search and rescue.

Kanouff will be missed, friends say By Alana Cook Citizen.Editor.Eureka@gmail.com
Michael James Kanouff, longtime resident of Eureka Springs and author of “Letters from the Edge,” passed away May 8 in Hawaii. Kanouff was also a freelance photographer who decided to move to Eureka Springs in the 1970s after studying at the Kansas City Art Institute. He spent time in Eureka Springs playing in a band alongside Vernon Tucker. “He came to Eureka in the ’70s and was a photographer,” Tucker said. “I was in a band called Greasy Greens and Michael joined us as a roadie, publicist and photographer and we had fun playing in the Governor’s Mansion, all over the South and in New Orleans. He will be missed by all members of the band.” Jacqueline Froelich, senior news producer for KUAF radio, has fond memories of Kanouff. “Michael James was exceedingly tall, handsome and gregarious‚ and a prolific New Age thinker,” she said. “We dated for a brief time in the early ’90s, before becoming close friends. I flew to Hawaii, after Michael’s accident in 1994, to spend time with him in the hospital. His resolve to pursue a vivid life‚ despite being fully crippled‚ was as strong as ever. Over the next few years, I assisted Michael in composing the first draft of his autobiography, ‘Letters From the Edge.’ He would dictate his notes to me over the phone, from his Maui home, seated in his wheelchair. I would email him typed chapters. The book was and is a chronicle of survival and spirituality. His beloved spouse, Kimberly later helped him bring his book to fruition, and to live a long and fulfilled life.” Kanouff became the photographer for American Heritage Magazine and, through his travels, befriended Jacques Cousteau, Russian cosmonauts and American astronauts. Mayor Butch Berry recalled working with Kanouff on several projects. “He was also one of the photographers who first documented many of our historic buildings and put them in the national lime-

light. He also helped me to photograph the building for the first survey for the Arkansas Preservation Program that was done in 1979,” Berry said. Kanouff, born the fifth of six siblings in Omaha, Neb., knew no boundaries and always had his own idea of how things should be done. At 8 years old, he insisted on learning to waterski barefoot and only later acquiesced to one and then two skis on his feet. He sought truth and beauty in his explorations of the world, becoming captivated with photography. During his studies at the Kansas City Art Institute, he discovered the community of Eureka Springs, quit school, and immediately moved there. Kanouff was living the dream of an avid, successful freelance photographer on the islands of Hawaii when his life was forever changed by a diving accident, and he began his second life as a quadriplegic at the age of 40. Kanouff was a special soul who battled challenges every day from paralysis with incredible wit, charm and tears for what others were doing for him, while also counseling See Kanouff, page 21

ES School District to re-apply for afterschool program funding Eureka Springs School District is reapplying for a state grant to fund next year’s after school program and is calling for volunteers to work with children after school or local businesses or individuals who can contribute money to help keep the program going. Funding for the after school program comes from the 21st Century Community Learning Center program through the U.S. Department of Education to provide academic enrichment opportunities during nonschool hours for children, particularly students who attend high-poverty and low-performing schools. ESSD in the spring of 2009 partnered with Main Stage Creative Community Center for the first grant, which funded the program from 2009 to 2014. The district did not receive funding for this school year but school representatives are hoping that they qualify to receive funding for the next five years. ESSD would receive $150,000 for the first and second years and $120,000 for
years three through five. “It’s important that our community remains aware of this and will continue to lend support through partnerships with the schools,” fourth grade teacher Kamisha Watson said. Watson said if the district receives funding, parents will not have to pay the $3 daily fee for kids to attend the program and that community support and partnerships are vital to the program’s success. “We have to have partnerships and we have five so far. We need volunteers to work with the kids or anyone who could donate time and money to the program,” she said. The after school program will be open to students in kindergarten through eight grade who reside in the ESSD. The program will run from 3 to 5 p.m. Monday through Thursday. For more information or if you are interested in partnering with the schools, please call 479-253-8704.

Eureka Springs Fire & EMS responds to motel fire Eureka Springs Fire & EMS responded to a fire alarm Monday afternoon at Traveler’s Inn on East Van Buren Avenue. Fire Chief Randy Ates arrived first on the scene and responded At 3:02 p.m. Monday afternoon, a fire alarm went off at the Traveler’s Inn on East Van Buren Avenue. Fire Chief Randy Ates arrived first and found room 140, in the rear of the structure, full of smoke. The alert was re-broadcast to the fire department as a working structure fire. Captain Billy Summers along with firefighters Dillon Halper and Josh Beyler took a hose line from Engine 1151 and made a direct attack on the small fire inside room
140. Meanwhile a second crew forced entry into the room above to stop any fire spread. A ladder truck was staged on the street in front of the two-story building. Meanwhile, Engine 1154 prepared to lay a hose line from the hydrant across the street at Gaskins Switch shopping center. A total of fourteen personnel responded to the incident. The fire was contained to a small area on and under the room’s HVAC unit. The smoke was pushed from the room using a high-powered fan. The department’s fire marshal determined that the fire was started by smoldering incense left on top of the motel room’s heat and air unit.

A crew from Eureka Springs Fire & EMS responded to a report of a possible hazardous materials incident last Thursday on Potter Road.
ESFD responds to HAZMAT incident Eureka Springs Fire & EMS responded last Thursday to the report of a possible hazardous materials incident on Potter Road. Reports came in of a small controlled brush fire on the property that was near a 55-gallon drum with unknown contents. The drum toppled over onto its side and spilled contents onto and around the fire.
The fire was easily extinguished and an unknown oily substance was contained, according to Randy Ates, ESFD Fire Chief. Nick Samac, Office of Emergency Management director, responded to the scene and found that there was no threat to the environment or public. All personnel returned to service without incident.
Funeral comes to life in new play By Ann Hopkins The judge is dead but has unfinished business with his feuding family and a pompous preacher. “Lying in Judgement,” by local playwright Tom Gorsuch, a drama with a comically irreverent take on life, death, love, sex and religion, will be performed 3 p.m. Sunday, May 31 at the Eureka Unitarian Universalist Fellowship. Joe Watts will direct this staged reading featuring a cast of Eureka Springs residents including Carmen Caldwell, Teresa DeVito, Mary Diehl, Jim Holt, Bryan Manire, Jessie Rex, and Watts. Watts was very involved in Houston’s theatrical circle for over 35 years and has directed over 60 productions and acted in over 75. Most recently, Watts directed and acted in successful productions of A.H. Gurney’s “Love Letters” at Main Stage in Eureka Springs. “Lying in Judgement” is Gorsuch’s first play. It was developed at weekly gatherings of a local writing group at the Writers’ Colony at Dairy Hollow. Gorsuch and his wife Ann retired to Eureka Springs in 2007 and both have discovered a rich environment for aspiring writers. In addition to his weekly writing group, Gorsuch took a play writing class with Keith Scales through the
Village Writing School. Before moving to this area, he was a long-time board member of the experimental Red Eye Theater in Minneapolis, where he provided script critiques to the artistic director for nearly 100 submitted plays. The play centers around the death of Doug, a retired rural judge who died after a long battle with Alzheimer’s disease. His dysfunctional family members are no longer on speaking terms with each other, so they come to the funeral home individually to see him. Surreal conversations unfold during each visitation, followed by a lively confrontation with the officiating preacher. Family members confront their many conflicts at a trial with rapping, prancing bailiffs who comment on the proceedings. Tickets will be $5 cash at the door and doors open at 2:30 p.m. Seating is limited and reservations are recommended by email at ahop222@gmail.com or by calling 479-253-4008. Parking is limited at this venue. Onstreet parking is available along White Street and in the neighborhood surrounding 17 Elk Street. Extra parking is available at Ermilio’s Restaurant, 26 White Street.

‘Congratulations’
I just had to write and “congratulate” you on the fine job everyone did at getting your 2223 ordinance passed. There’s nothing quite like the feel of victory at getting your way; especially at the expense of two good citizens here we are supposed to treat with the love and respect you stressed was so important here in Eureka. Jesus would never have uncovered a person’s past publicly or spoke disrespectfully of others. I hope you’re proud of yourselves. J. BRITTON
Thanks for voting for equality Dear Conscious people of Eureka Springs, Thank you for leading by example in regards to equality for all people. As a tourist, I enjoy your history, art, and welcoming personality. Being the first Preserve America Commu-
nity in Arkansas, I commend your efforts to preserve equality for all as well. I look forward to visiting your friendly city once again. My time spent visiting with relatives living in Arkansas was enjoyable and I hope that doesn’t change to hate as my gay dollars will not support communities, or people, with bigoted views. My family, Nick and his four children, would not feel comfortable in a place with such outdated views. Our children should not be taught this unfair behavior from the experience of other people whose concept of God is less than perfect. I and many other gay people have been wounded by religion. I was healed by my faith which has shown me that God is not a bigot and neither should we be. Eckhart Tolle, author, reminds me of the people I’ve met in Eureka Springs when he describes love this way; “When another person recognizes you, that recognition draws the dimension of Being (Spirit) more fully into this world through both of you. That is the love that redeems the world.” Eckhart went on to say: “God is the one life in and beyond the countless forms of life. Love implies duality. Lover and Beloved. Subject and Ob-

ject. So love is then the recognition of oneness in the world of duality. This is the birth of God into the world of form. Love makes the world less worldly, less dense. Love allows for a more transparency to the Divine dimension, the light of consciousness itself.” Eureka Springs, please keep leading by example. We are not our religion. We are more than that. We are spirit. Our only purpose on earth is for us to remember who we are in our allowing of a oneness with God. All spiritual teachers have spoken the same message. “The things that I can do, you can do also.” Jesus added; “...you can do that, and more.” Heaven’s Joy to All, MICHAEL ANDERSON, author The Achilles Effect-Wounded by Religion.

Transition Clara Mae Haise, of Berryville passed away Monday, May 18, 2015 in Hollister, Mo., at the age of 77. She was born May 5, 1938 to Wesley and Thelma (Underwood) Johnson. She is preceded in death by her parents, Wesley and Thelma Johnson and one brother, Wetsel Hanes. She was of the Baptist Faith and she enjoyed knitting, singing, cooking, and visiting with family and friends. On May 2, 2000 she was united in marriage with Roger Haise who survives her of the home. She is also survived by five children, Donna Wyman
regarding parcels being offered. The catalog can be found on the Commissioner’s website at www.cosl.org, providing current information resources about each parcel. “Bidding begins at the amount of taxes and fees that are due,” Thurston said. “Owners of delinquent parcels should remember that they have only 10 business days to redeem their property if it sells at auction.” Delinquent property owners may call the office at 501-324-9422 to request a Petition to Redeem, or they may look up the delinquent parcel on the COSL website and print it from there.

The Natural Way Hair Health
T
he hair on top of our head is seen by everybody and often it is what folks base their first impression upon. Additionally, it does provide a protective function to our Jim Fain head and body. A good diet and proper supplementation can enhance hair health. We all know of male pattern baldness but many do not know that women often lose hair count or that the thickness of individual strands thins with age. In both men and women, hormones play a large role. The balance of testosterone and certain female hormones effects the amount and placement of hair on our bodies. Genetics, diet, prescribed drugs and stress play a large role in hair. Not much can be done about our gene pool but we can maximize our diet and reduce daily stress. A good rounded diet which includes plenty of water helps. If you happen to not be very good with eating well a good multi-vitamin with minerals and trace elements will go a long way. Be sure to have enough vitamin B-complex, and take in up to 1 mg. of biotin daily. B-complex also helps the body handle the effects of stress. Stress reduction in whatever form does as well. Up to four grams daily of MSM makes the hair stronger and improves skin and nails. Wild yam creme along with saw palmetto is used to help bring hair back to those receding or absent places. There are specialty formulas by private label and commercial which can be very beneficial. It helps to shampoo your hair every day to leave a little natural oil in place. Some people like to use a shampoo which does not have TEA-Laurel Sulfate or DEA in it, others don’t mind if it does. I like to use a gentle shampoo separate from a conditioner. This way I can add a small glop of conditioner rubbed between my palms. Hair health is surprisingly complicated. A consultation with your trusted and trained hair professional along with your health care provider is often very wise. Having your head displayed to the world in the way you want is a pleasure which enhances self-confidence.
Wisecrack Zodiac ARIES: The world is about to beat a path to your door. If you don’t want that much company, you can always move to another town, or just go mad scientist and develop a tasering doormat. That will bring even more people to you, but they’ll have to be sneakier about it. TAURUS: It takes dozens of muscles to smile, but only a few to slap you so hard, you’ll land where even Google can’t find you. Find your own common sense before your loved ones line up for a good smack. GEMINI: You can strive for excellence or waddle over to mediocrity. While ambition may land you in those skinny jeans, there is something to be said for the comfy, stained sweatpants of average. CANCER: Know your own mind and you won’t be swayed by the strong winds of others’ wild ideas, mainly because you’re following your own demented tumbleweeds across the desert. It’s so much better to invent your own crazy than to follow someone else’s brand. LEO: Did you just hear a pop? That’s your own butt muscles unclenching this week. Let them relax and flap in the breeze for a while, because emergency mode is done for now. Go ahead and pull that stick out of your tush while you’re at it. VIRGO: You may not have the right stuff, but you have a nicely weird assortment sure to gather a crowd at any flea market. Show off your awkward treasures, because handmade angst is so hot right now. LIBRA: Tuesday isn’t your beast of burden, it’s more like a Chihuahua in your Coach bag. Don’t depend on it to do the heavy lifting, just expect it to pop out and bark at hairy dudes in Starbucks. SCORPIO: You have a great plan, you just need a new angle. Don’t worry about finding the right angle, just take the first one that’s acute. SAGITTARIUS: Don’t worry

about that last failure. Every dog has its day, although every lizard gets about two weeks. Maybe you should spend some time laying in the sun and sticking out your tongue, so you have all the bases covered. CAPRICORN: Good news is coming your way, so remember to leave the key under the fake rock so it can get in and have some breakfast. If you don’t, it could end up on your neighbor’s couch, enjoying her muffins and you’ll never see it again.

AQUARIUS: Things are going your way, they’re just not going at the speed you want. Quit trying to find the Turbo button on that turtle and enjoy the achingly slow yet scenic ride. PISCES: You’ve sent a lot of energy out into the universe, and Karma has hot-glued it together into one bizarre sculpture. Appreciate your own cosmic art, and others will, too. Answers on page 21

those in need. His book, “Letters From The Edge,” published in 2004, details his life “through the looking glass of paralysis.” The book contains forwards by Dr. Wayne Dyer and Gerald Jampolksy, MD, both internationally renowned motivational speakers, and a review by F.D. Reeve, father of Christopher Reeve. Kanouff lost his beloved soulmate, Kimberly, one year ago and struggled to continue, leaving this world and “standing tall” on Friday, May 8, 2015.
