Hit summer in style It can’t be endless, so make it the best ever

BY RYAN MILLER mericans have been celebrating summer in style for generations.

That smoke you smell in your nostalgic nosrils is probably wafting in from a ’50s barbecue, fired up for a Kissthe-Cook round of all-beef hamburger patties scarfed down before everybody piles into the car and cruises to the beach for a bonfire.

It doesn’t matter if you’re a greatgrandparent or were born just about yesterday, the summer you’re about to experience is built on the foundation of decades of summers past. Every dripping ice cream cone, every crack of the bat preceding a roar from the crowd, every Technicolor flash of light followed a fraction of a second later by a neighborhood-rattling boom is an echo of once-enjoyed Memorial Day weekends, Fourth of July holidays, and Labor Day picnics, as well as the genesis of memories to be treasured for years to come.

Adults, think back to the summers of your childhood. Was there ever a time in your life when skies were as blue?

Afternoons as long? Teeth-chattering pool or lake water as inviting?

Children, just keep doing what you’re doing. Summer is your season.

This year, New Times is celebrating the timeless and paradoxically fleeting dream of summer with a super-stuffed guide to local activities for people of all ages.

Calendar Editor Trever Dias hand-picked some events to highlight for May [28], June [31], July [32], and August [34], then threw everything he could find into a compendium of hundreds of activities [37].

Also, find a spotlight on the Paso ARTSFEST by Arts Editor Erin C. Messer [61].

Be sure to take pictures of your hotweather shenanigans, but also make an effort to put the camera (or phone) down and just enjoy whatever it is you’re doing.

A digital image, after all, can’t preserve everything, and your own memories are what you’ll be revisiting most often, especially when you’re back to school, back to work, and bundled up against wind and chill come winter. ∆ Executive Editor Ryan Miller likes it hot, as do some.

Thorn in the S.L.O.

You don’t have to wait until climate change turns SLO into a desert to see a nice variety of cacti—just check out the Central Coast Cactus and Succulent Society’s eighth annual show and sale on May 24 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and May 25 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The show will be held at the Ludwick Community Center in SLO and will include rare and unusual specimens as well as more common varietals, such as the fockea crispa seen here—which kind of looks like a headless frog with a tree growing out of its neck. The Ludwick Community Center is located at 864 Santa Rosa St. For more info, go to centralcoastcactus.org.

—Trever Dias

You could check out George Asdel’s exhibit, Paintings, Poems & Whimsy, on a whim, or you can totally plan it out well in advance, if you’re into that sort of thing. The exhibit will run through May 29 at Gallery at Marina Square in Morro Bay. Also, if I were the cat in the drawing “Crows Teasing a Cat” (pictured), I would just eat the crows and have the fish for dessert. Gallery at Marina Square is located at 601 Embarcadero, Suite 10 and can be reached at 772-3883.

Sew your wild quilts

Blankets are the best. They keep you warm, you can have a picnic on them, you can even throw them over a small fire to put it out. Making them requires artistry and skill, and that should be celebrated, which you can do at SEW SLO—a three-day celebration of modern quilting, fabric, and sewing, May 30 through June 1, at Picking Daisies in SLO. The event will be held from 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on May 30 and 31, and from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on June 1. There will be multiple giveaways of sewing supplies, including an Elna Experience 540 sewing machine. Picking Daisies is located at 570 Higuera St., No. 120, and can be reached at 783-2434. For further details, go to sewslo.com.

There are plenty of Fourth of July celebrations to choose from in SLO County, but not all of them have a good old-fashioned pie eating contest like the one at Shamel Park in Cambria. Some of you may find that to be gluttonous and grotesque, but the guy in the photo really seems to enjoy it. In addition to the pie eating contest, the celebration will feature live music, food, raffles, relay races, and more.

It begins at 11 a.m. and ends with a fireworks show at 9 p.m. For more info, visit cambriachamber.org.

—Trever Dias

To be there

Add a little theater to your midsummer schedule by including the Central Coast Shakespeare Festival on your list of things to do. The festival will be held from July 10 to Aug. 2 at Filipponi Ranch in SLO, and this year’s productions will be The Taming of the Shrew and A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Tickets are $12 to $20, and are available at the door a half hour before the show or at centralcoastshakespeare.org. There will also be a “pay what you can” performance of The Taming of the Shrew on July 24, and one for A Midsummer Night’s Dream on July 31. Filipponi Ranch is located at 1850 Calle Joaquin Rd. —T.D.

Oil may not mix with water, but it mixes with a whole bunch of other stuff—like ice cream, for example.

Triple GRAMMY-nominated artists Acoustic Alchemy have reached the broadest possible audience by pushing the potential of instrumental music to embrace a broad spectrum of styles without being limited to any specific genre. They feature a powerhouse rhythm section and shimmering keyboards, as well as acoustic guitar riffs ranging from straightahead jazz to folk to rock to world music and beyond. Adding to Acoustic Alchemy’s rich legacy is their extraordinary airplay, sales and critical reception that have earned them legions of die-hard fans the world over. They are responsible for some of the most seminal albums in jazz. From their debut, Red Dust and Spanish Lace, and continuing on with Early Alchemy and Art and finally to 2011 release, Rosewood, Acoustic Alchemy has a discography unparalleled in any genre.

Their pioneering sound of dueling acoustic guitars is currently in the hands of two musicians who are nothing short of masterful on their instruments: Greg Carmichael and Miles Gilderdale. Together, they explore elements of jazz, rock, country and reggae – all of which makes for a sound that is both eclectic and yet cohesive at the same time.

Summer Guide

Festival

BY ERIN C. MESSER

The biggest

little art show Paso ARTSFEST takes over Memorial Day weekend with its annual artstravaganza

W

ine and art have always had a strong affinity for one another, so it stands to reason that our local wine country would host a festival designed for creative types.

Paso ARTSFEST (all upper case) is the yearly jubilee brought to you by North County arts powerhouse Studios on the Park, taking place over Memorial Day weekend, May 23 through 26.

ARTSFEST opens on an appropriately grand note with the Hearst Castle Art Tour, showcasing William Randolph Hearst’s mania for collecting. Don’t expect to see anything modern—as prior visitors to the castle will recall, Mr. Hearst’s tastes trended toward the antique. The tour takes place May 23 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.; the $75 ticket price includes an exclusive tour of the castle and grounds as well as lunch on the terraces of La Casa del Mar, the largest of the hilltop’s guesthouses.

If you can’t make lunch, the State of the Art Dinner, Keynote, and Afterparty will take place at

PHOTO COURTESY OF STUDIOS ON THE PARK

ARTSFEST’s home base, in the Park Ballroom and at Studios on the Park, on May 23 from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. The speaker will be Quang Ho, an internationally recognized painter and teacher whose workshop on May 26 has already sold out.

The heart and soul—or, I should say, paint and canvas—of ARTSFEST is the main event, on May 24 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. in Paso Robles’ downtown City Park. This includes the Outdoor Fine Art Show and Sale and the Wet Painting Sale and Auction, as well as a number of art activities for all ages, food, and entertainment. The Monroe, Cuesta Ridge, and Todo Mundo will perform on the Pine Street Stage, and there will also be a Youth Stage with live music to be announced. Ditto the dance performances, which will take place every half hour.

looking a little barren? More than 60 artists are slated to take part in the Outdoor Fine Art Show and Sale.

You’re especially in luck if you dig landscapes—the Central Coast being approximately 98.5 percent landscape at last count—but alongside ARTSFEST veterans, voracious viewers will be treated to several new participants this year, including glass artist Claudia Ariss (fresh off a strong solo show at Big Sky Café in SLO), jewelry designer Ina Hohensee, photographer Andrew Butler, basketweaver and gourd artist Toni Best, abstract painter Mikel Naccarato, and photographer Hugo Martinez.

Martinez, a Santa Barbara-based photographer whose work was recently featured in National Geographic, will show his exquisitely composed food PHOTO COURTESY OF STUDIOS ON THE PARK

photographs. Simple and direct, they gain their raw power—literally— from the unflinching presentation of food products similar to the still life paintings of the Dutch masters, rendered even more strikingly accurate through the photographic lens.

Bad-boy art stars Jeff Claassen and Neal Breton’s Fiasco Gallery will be on hand with work from a group of Savages alumni that includes signmaker Ty Hjortland, artist and designer Alani Chavez (who stole our hearts at Savages with her Dueling Whiskers: Beardyman Series No. 1), Lisa Bukoswki, the beloved Lena Rushing, and Sendak-on-canvas Bret Brown. The freshness and levity of these young bloods perfectly suits the festival atmosphere; don’t miss them.

If you’re still not convinced, think of it this way: Where else can you keep your kids busy with something educational and creative (art is important!) while also drinking totally justifiable glasses of wine (Paso is the new Napa!)? That’s what I thought. See you at ARTSFEST! ∆ When Arts Editor Erin C. Messer isn’t out taking the plein air, she can be reached at emesser@newtimesslo.com.

The Paso ARTSFEST takes place May 23 through 26, with the main event on May 24 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the downtown City Park. Special events include the Hearst Castle Art Tour on May 23 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., the State of the Art Dinner, Keynote, and Afterparty on May 23 from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. The main event includes a fine art show and sale, a wet painting sale, live music, dance performances, arts activities for all ages, and sand sculpting.
