Taking place July 13-15 (with a special pre- festival kickoff party on July 12), this year’s Harry Dean Stanton Fest will bear a special sense of nostalgia as it pays tribute to the Kentucky-born actor who passed away in September 2017 at the age of 91.

A Neighborhood Place with Local Flavor!

Harry Dean Stanton Fest July 13-15 • Various venues, including The Farish Theater, Kentucky Theatre and The Burl www.harrydeanstantonfest.org This annual tribute to beloved Kentucky-born actor Harry Dean Stanton brings together actors, musicians, directors and others in the film and music industry for a weekend of film screenings and music performances honoring Stanton in some way. Organized by local film buff Lucy Jones, the annual festival has been taking place since 2011; this year’s event will have a special dose of nostalgia, however, being the first installment of the event following Stanton’s death at age 91 last year.

Festivities will kick off with a special “pre-party” on July 12 at The Green Lantern (497 W. Third St.), featuring live music from Mandeville, a new band featuring Jamie James (The Harry Dean Stanton Band, The Kingbees, Steppenwolf, Dennis Quaid and the Sharks). The band will perform a special set inspired by decades of making music with Stanton, performed in the way that he most loved to perform them: in three-part harmony.

BBQ COWBOY BEANS

RECIPE BY HOGFATHERS BBQ INTRO AND PHOTO

BY THERESA STANLEY

HogFathers’ BBQ Cowboy Beans will be available at the Bluegrass BBQ FEST June 8-9.

HogFathers’ BBQ Cowboy Beans • 2 quarts basic baked beans (recipe below) • 1 cup spicy barbecue sauce • 1/4 cup HogFathers Magic Dust (recipe below) or pork butt rub To baked beans, add barbecue sauce and Magic Dust. Mix well and place on smoker (oak), heated to 225 degrees. Cook for one hour, stirring twice during smoking. Yields 8 servings.

Basic Baked Beans • 6 slices of thick-cut bacon, coarsely chopped • 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped • 60 ounces canned pork and beans • 1/3 cup ketchup • 1/3 cup molasses • 2/3 cup light brown sugar • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar • 2 teaspoon dry mustard In a stock pot, fry bacon over medium heat until fat is rendered.

Remove bacon. Add onion and sauté over medium-low heat until translucent. Add bacon back to pot and add remaining ingredients. Mix well.

Every plate of barbecue should be accompanied by a spoonful of beans. A variation on the classic baked beans – the sweet and saucy sort, with straightforward mustard and vinegar notes – Cowboy Beans include a poetic two-step method. Pitmasters at Nicholasville’s HogFathers BBQ take basic baked beans and turn up the heat with spice and oak, slow smoking the beans to infuse the oak flavor and provide a depth of flavor that only the smoke can deliver.

HogFathers’ Magic Dust • 1/4 cup paprika • 2 tablespoons kosher salt • 2 tablespoons white sugar • 2 tablespoons hot chili powder • 1 tablespoon cumin • 2 tablespoons granulated garlic • 1 tablespoon dry mustard powder • 2 tablespoons coarse black pepper cc

What Forest Knows

All the King’s Men

by George Ella Lyon, illustrated by August Hall

by Robert Penn Warren

Former Kentucky poet laureate George Ella Lyon’s “What Forest Knows” depicts a serene yet ever-changing forest that poetically portrays all four seasons. Broken down into seasonal cycles highlighting a variety of woodland creatures found in Kentucky forests, as well as their plans for food and resting nooks, the book’s beautiful illustrations – taken from etchings by August Hall – and lyrical language mimic a sensory walk in the woods and bring nature and animal curiosity to life at the turn of each page. Often hazy, just beyond the edge of realistic, the words and illustrations give the impression there’s still more to be explored. The forest knows everything belongs, and the pages of this book invite readers to belong, too.

Seventy years after it won the Pulitzer Prize for fiction, “All the King’s Men” is as timely as ever. In this story of greed, lust and disillusionment in America’s corrupt political system, backcountry lawyer Willie Stark rises to power through shrewdness and skill, then bullies and blackmails others once he gets into office. Author Robert Penn Warren, a Kentuckian, argues that all Americans continue to suffer from our slave history because we refuse to confess and redress, and in the end, Willie Stark’s sins catch up with him.

The Cow Who Wouldn’t Come Down

by Paul Brett Johnson The first published book by late Lexington-based children’s book author Paul Brett Johnson, “The Cow Who Wouldn’t Come Down” has long been a favorite in my family. When old Miss Rosemary’s cow Gertrude “took to flying,” Miss Rosemary tries getting her cow to come down, first with the most obvious methods, involving a fishing pole, a lasso and finally, a rooftop climb – all with disastrous results for Miss Rosemary. Paul Brett Johnson’s vibrant, playful illustrations and silly story captivates readers of all ages, including the child in my own family who typically doesn’t like books.

In his hilarious 1985 memoir, Lexington’s own Ed “Captain Kentucky” McClanahan chronicles the time he spent on the West Coast with the notorious band of Merry Pranksters, including counterculture icons Ken Kesey and Tom Wolfe. Alongside fellow Prankster (and fellow Kentucky “Fab Five” writer) Gurney Norman, McClanahan makes his way from Kentucky to Stanford University in California, stopping along the way to meet and document a variety of fun folks and unforgettable places.

The Birds of Opulence

by Crystal Wilkinson Diving into this book is like taking a summer trip to a Kentucky homeplace – one that is powerfully and evocatively developed as a place of love and heartbreak. Wilkinson’s first novel is set in the fictional black township of Opulence, but her description of the land and those connected to it – people, plants, birds and other wildlife – makes the setting feel authentic and recognizable. Exploring the relationships among four generations of women in two families, the award-winning novel – which won the Ernest J. Gaines Award for Literary Excellence and the Weatherford Award for Fiction – is rooted in nature, both human and environmental.

hen Jenny Rice, associate professor of writing, rhetoric and digital media, arrived in Lexington in 2011, she was already carrying a small torch for live storytelling. While pursuing her PhD in Austin, Texas, she regularly attended a monthly event where people spoke, played music or demonstrated something – whatever they longed to share with the crowd. It wasn’t limited to storytelling, and participants were excited to share something that they knew with others. Like many, Rice was also a fan of The Moth, the national organization that produces a popular radio show and podcast in addition to live events focused on storytelling.

As she got to know her new home, Rice often thought Lexington would be the perfect place for a storytelling community and hoped someone else would get the ball rolling.

STRAIGHT FROM THE HORSE’S MOUTH Monthly storytelling event gives a bigger platform to everyday moments STORY BY TANZI MERRITT PHOTOS BY REGGIE BEEHNER

“I was so busy with a new job in a new city and with my family that I didn’t have the time but eventually found a group of people who were interested, and we finally decided to give it a go,” Rice explained.

During the summer of 2016, the informal group met up at coffee shops, sharing ideas for themes, locations and an event title. They settled on The Horse’s Mouth Storytelling Night as the name, booked their first event at the north Lexington gallery and event space Parachute Factory, and in September 2016, they hosted their first storytelling event, with an apt theme: “The First Time.”

And a night of firsts it was, indeed.

That evening, storyteller Rian Davis stood up and told her first live story about some of her personal firsts, and everyone – organizers, audience and storyteller alike – was hooked.

Participants have reported finding the act of sharing stories with an audience often filled with strangers to be cathartic and comforting.

PHOTOS BY REGGIE BEEHNER

“Everyone in the room had tears in their eyes,” Rice said. “It was a really ordinary story told by a woman who hadn’t had her first kiss or her first date until later than most of her peers, and the way she told it was both funny and painful. I think we were all shocked by how moved we felt, but something about the story reached everyone listening. It was a powerful moment.”

Since that night, Davis has become a regular at The Horse’s Mouth. Recalling her first experience sharing, she says that what made her story so powerful was its honesty.

“We like the themes to be clear-cut enough that they lead people to specific story ideas but general enough that they can be open to interpretation,” Rice said, adding that it’s “fine when people interpret the theme very loosely.”

“When you are very honest about a topic that is uncomfortable to be honest about, people feel something – they can identify in some way,” Davis said.

Outside of the time limit, there are few rules.

While the event is not specifically limited to adults, it’s not guaranteed to be childfriendly.

After a few months of hosting the event at the Parachute Factory, followed by a short run at the Burl, the event has found a new home in the Taproom at West Sixth Brewing. The event is usually held on the last Sunday of each month.

“We only request that storytellers try to make their stories ‘radio friendly’ – if your story is something you would hear on NPR, it’s fine for this event,” she explained. “We don’t often have children in the audience, so while we ask that stories not contain gratuitous content, we don’t require stories to shy away from adult subjects.”

The event format is the same from month to

34

month: Six storytellers speak for 10 minutes or less, each telling a story that relates to the month’s theme. Theme ideas come from many places, including suggestions from storytellers and attendees, as well as from things that are going on in the world, such as holidays or current events.

Storytellers are also asked not to tell stories that single out any individuals or groups in a way that makes them uncomfortable. And, most importantly, the story must be true.

For experienced storyteller, Anna Ross, participating in the storytelling sessions is a practice in being open, honest and authentic, “and also accountable,” she said.

“When I tell a story, I have to tell the whole truth, even if it’s uncomfortable,” said Ross, adding that most of her stories are about being in recovery. “I told a story about being admitted to the hospital many years ago, which is something people do not talk about.

I did not realize the gravity of saying it, I guess, but multiple people approached me after and shared similar experiences. They were awestruck that I’d said it out loud.”

While many experienced storytellers find the act to be both cathartic and comforting, the experience can be frightening for the first-time performer. Prior to telling her first story this April, Mary Ann Miranda described herself as “intimidated but determined.”

JUNE 2018 || CHEVYCHASER.COM

5/25/18 5:56 PM

Miranda said she ultimately found the act to be very liberating.

“While it was a silly story of an embarrassing moment, I’ve carried the weight and mild horror of the events that I related for 15 years,” she said. “That room full of people picked it up and helped me carry it for the time it took me to tell the story. As I sat down after my turn at the microphone, I had an amazing sense of mutual gratitude with the people around me – because they listened and because I gave them a personal story to consider.”

While planning each storytelling night, Rice strives to line up stories from both seasoned storytellers as well as new ones.

One goal she has for the series is to help grow it over time, eventually adding storytelling events for children and teens and storytelling workshops for all ages.

“As humans, we are storytelling animals… We already have those skills built into us,” she said.

“Children tell stories all of the time, naturally.”

Her advice for those interested in telling their first story at the Horse’s Mouth is, first and foremost, to come and listen.

Horse’s Mouth Storytelling Hour June 24, 7-8 p.m.

West Sixth Taproom, 501 W. Sixth St. This month’s storytelling hour features the theme of “Lost and Found.”

Anyone interested in participating should email Jenny Rice at jenny.rice @uky.edu.

“You’ll get a good idea of what makes a live story work – it’s just a matter of knowing how to begin, how to unfold the tale, and how to wrap it up,” she said.

“Some of the best stories are the ones that aren’t about a big dramatic event or an exciting adventure story,” she added.

“What really works is when you talk about a moment – it may be a life-changing moment, but it’s also a small moment that has a greater meaning.” cc

Storyteller Anna Ross (left) said that for her, the act of storytelling is a practice in being accountable. She and other participants pictured here told stories on the theme of “faking it” in April.

THE HARD SELL

As they prepare to put Lexington’s only remaining locally owned hardware store up for sale, Chevy Chase Hardware owners Bill and Carol Edwards reflect on more than four decades in a family-owned hardware store business STORY BY ROBIN ROENKER PHOTOS BY HATTIE QUIK

C

hevy Chase Hardware owners Bill and Carol Edwards know most of their customers on a first-name basis. Their two adult children, Avery Garner and Will Edwards – who also work in the store – do as well.

Their High Street shop is not the type of home improvement store where you have to hunt down an employee or call on an intercom for help. As Lexington’s last remaining locally owned hardware store, Chevy Chase Hardware – which opened in 1946 – harkens to a bygone era where customer service is priority No. 1.

This is a place where customers receive help with whatever they need. Will Edwards has been known to open the lids on stuck pickle jars for neighborhood ladies – on a regular basis. Recently, Garner was helping a customer tighten the screws on his glasses.

“The majority of our customers are regulars,” she said. “We know them, and they know us. That’s part of the fun.”

Carol and Bill Edwards, pictured above, bought Chevy Chase Hardware in 2000. The couple is ready to retire and seeking new ownership of the one-stop neighborhood shop.

5/25/18 5:56 PM

On at least two occasions, Bill Edwards and team have helped save lives. Once, a dad came in needing help cutting a zip tie that had become fastened around the neck of his small son.

Another time, a frantic mom drove into the store’s parking lot, screaming for help to free her child from a seatbelt that had become wrapped around his neck.

The Edwardses are also able to regularly save the day with runof-the-mill do-it-yourself dilemmas. After nearly 18 years of stocking the 20,000 items in his 4,400-square-foot store, Bill can tell customers the precise location of whatever they’re looking

for, whether it’s fertilizer, spray paint, a piece of PVC piping or a specific size drill bit.

“Even my employees are sometimes amazed when people come in asking for something, and I’ll say, ‘Go four feet eight inches down aisle 17, and it’s on the second shelf,’” said Bill, a decorated Vietnam War veteran who grew up in Middlesboro, Kentucky.

That’s almost 43 years of hardware sales “know-how” — a career that will leave big shoes to fill when the Edwardses look to sell Chevy Chase Hardware this year. Approaching 70, Bill’s ankles and feet are worn out, he said, after decades of 10-hour days on concrete floors. He’s open to working in the store part-time, though, once they find a new owner.

The Edwardses have owned and operated Chevy Chase Hardware since October 2000, but they’ve been in the hardware business since September 1975, when they opened their first store, Lexington Hardware, on Richmond Road.

“I don’t see me just sitting around. I thoroughly enjoy waiting on people and being the smarty pants that knows everything,” Bill said jokingly, his trademark sense of humor coming through.

But after years of working six and sometimes seven days a week, the couple is ready for a little R&R. “I’ve been working since I was 13 years old,” said Carol, who had a career as an elementary school teacher before the couple opened their hardware business. “I’m tired.”

Both Carol and Bill hope a new buyer will be able to keep the store open.

“No one wants to see it close,” Bill said. “It would destroy the neighborhood if people had to leave and head to a big box store for every little item that we sell.

We want it to stay.”

With inventory ranging from house paint to garden supplies, Chevy Chase Hardware is a popular and convenient stop for Chevy Chase neighbors, many of whom store employees know by name. Owners Bill and Carol Edwards hope that a new owner will be able to keep the store open when they retire.

Under the Edwards’ ownership, Chevy Chase Hardware has cut its prices by 20 percent and increased inventory by 30-40 percent, but what many customers value the most is the store’s flagship personal service.

‘This is where we were meant to be’ When Home Depot and Lowe’s both moved onto Richmond Road within six months of one another, the Edwardses lost $300,000 in sales at their original store, they said.

They could have declared bankruptcy. But, as Carol put it, “We just don’t do that.”

The couple dug in, and, in Bill’s words, “worked longer and harder to make it work. We weren’t going to quit.” They sold Lexington Hardware and bought Chevy Chase Hardware, closing one store on the same day the other opened. Bill took on a full-time job as a hardware salesman with

wholesale distributor House Hassan Hardware, logging 16hour days, while Carol ran the Chevy Chase store somewhat on her own for the first three years they owned it, until they’d pulled themselves out of debt.

Under the Edwardses’ management, Chevy Chase hardware cut prices by 20 percent and increased inventory by 30-40 percent, Bill said. Those moves have gained the shop a dedicated local clientele who often marvel at the small store’s ability to offer items at prices that match, or even beat, bigger competitors.

“We’ve had people come in with their receipts and compare our prices to other places,” Bill said. “One guy recently said if

he’d bought his items with us, it would’ve been $14 cheaper.”

That’s because Bill’s a hawk about constantly checking competitors’ rates and tweaking his own margins. In the days before item prices were readily available on other stores’ websites, he’d roam the isles at big-box stores, calling Carol on his cell phone to report the going price of a tube of caulk or can of spackling. “Every time I stock a new item I check [competitors’ prices],” Bill said. “There are a few specific products where we can’t match them – because we just don’t sell enough of that inventory – but for the most part, we can.”

Thanks to its convenience, cus-

tomer service and competitive pricing, Chevy Chase residents have fully embraced the Edwardses’ hardware store – so much so that Bill says they do close to twice the national average in sales for a shop its size.

The loyal customers in Chevy Chase – folks who walk the walk when it comes to buying local first – have made the Edwardses feel their location on East High Street is where they were meant to be doing business all along.

“I was surprised at the volume [of sales] that the store did when we came here,” Bill said. “When we got here, we felt like this is where we were meant to be.

We shouldn’t have been anywhere else.” cc

STORY BY MICHELLE AIELLO PHOTOS BY ESTILL ROBINSON

W

ithin the past decade or so, aerial fitness has become a fast-growing trend. Thrill seekers and fitness fans alike are slipping into silk slings and hoops and creating beautiful, strengthbuilding compositions with their bodies while suspended in mid-air.

Lexington’s Jessica Johnson (who goes by the stage name Jessica Jay) took her first aerial class shortly after graduating from college and says she was “immediately hooked.” She now owns Sora Aerial Arts, Lexington’s only aerial arts studio, and its sister company, Sora Contemporary Circus, which focuses on aerial theater production. Johnson spends her days teaching classes at Sora, running her studio and performing and choreographing aerial pieces for a wide variety of events and theatrical productions.

JOHNSON

Currently located in a warehouse on National Avenue with plans to relocated to a larger space this summer, Sora Aerial Arts is both a fitness facility and a training studio for youth and adult students interested in learning aerial arts – or for those just looking for a fun fitness alternative. The studio offers a wide variety of fitness classes, such as yoga and Pilates, and also offers numerous performance-based classes, from ballet to contortion, pole dancing to hand balancing, partner acrobatics, juggling and, of course, its flagship aerial arts: an acrobatics fitness and art form where participants are suspended in the air using aerial silks that hang from the ceiling.

Jessica Johnson (who also uses the stage name Jessica Jay) has quickly grown her business, Sora Aerial Arts. Prepping for expansion, the company recently launched an campaign called Curcus Takes Lex.

CHEVYCHASER.COM || JUNE 2018

40-45 sora.indd 43

5/25/18 6:05 PM

While some of these classes might sound intimidating at first, Johnson encourages interested parties to give it a shot, even if they’ve never tried anything like it.

“Everyone who walks through these doors is a beginner, she explained, “because until we opened, this type of art form didn’t exist in Lexington.” She added that many people got their first exposure to aerial arts through Cirque du Soliel in the ’90s, and studios have been popping up ever since.

A native of Illinois, Johnson has studied aerial movement all over the country, including several years in Cincinnati, where she took classes at aerial classes at a fitness facility called Bella Forza in the evenings while working as a special education teacher.

When she moved to Lexington in 2013, she hung a few silks at a local gymnastics facility and began working there as the sole aerial arts instructor, and when Bella Forza’s Lexington location, on National Avenue, was closing, the owner, with whom Johnson had become close, allowed her to retain the name when Johnson opened her own studio in its former location in 2014. Eventually, Johnson explained, her own studio became more centered on the performing arts aspect, whereas Bella Forza was more fitness-oriented. That’s when she decided to change the name to Sora, which according to the website, indi-

44

cates “the space or void within one’s spirit, thought and creative energy; one’s potential power, spontaneity and creativity.” Today, the studio features 30 instructors and dozens of classes each week, geared toward all ages and skill levels.

Johnson founded the Sora Contemporary Circus with the goal of providing cirque-style entertainment and aerial theatre productions. The troupe’s first original show, “Utopia,” debuted in June 2017 to a sold-out audience at the Black Box Theater in the Pam Miller Downtown Arts Center, validating that there was, indeed, a strong local audience for this unique performance form.

“When you think of traditional circus, there’s the ring and ringmaster and tricks and ‘ta-da!’” Johnson said. “With contemporary circus, there is more of a theme and a plot.” A major theme in “Utopia” dealt with balancing two opposing forces to find balance in the human psyche.

In addition to presenting shows that feature professional dancers, acrobats and other more experienced performers, Sora also produces yearly student shows to showcase the work of newer students. Both productions are held at the Black Box Theater and both showcase the skills the students have learned

in their classes, with past shows having included “Matilda,” “The Wizard of Oz” and “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.”

After several years of steady growth, Sora is currently gearing up for another big expansion. This summer, the facility will relocate to a larger, more inclusive space that will hold classes and possibly even live performances. To help fund the expansion, Johnson has launched a multi-faceted fundraising campaign, titled “Circus Takes Lexington.”

One of her biggest challenges, she said, has been finding the ideal building to support the aerial arts and the studio’s growth. She has enlisted the help of local real estate agents, structural engineers, steel erectors and rigging designers to ensure that the overhead anchoring structure exceeds industry standards for acrobatic performance and training. The campaign will also help fund the company’s community outreach program, which provides resources for community members who may not have access to transportation or the budget to learn or watch the art of circus.

The campaign includes an online crowdfunded campaign on Kickstarter, which is live through June 16 with a goal of raising $10,000, and on June 16 Sora will host “Circus Takes Lexington,” a family-friendly carnival and fundraiser in Castlewood Park. Live

The leading studio for progressive design

circus performances will take place both inside the Loudoun House and on the lawn, and a number of fun, interactive activities, including dance workshops, a scavenger hunt, a fortune teller and live music, are planned.

One of Johnson’s favorite aspects of the circus community is the inclusivity. “[Aerial arts] are about what your body is capable of and not what your body should look like,” she said. “It helps you accept yourself because you’re focused on these amazing feats of strength, flexibility and expression that you’re performing.”

She is also grateful for the immense support shown to her performance company and studio over the years and looks forward to bringing the art of circus to more people than ever.

Oklahoma native Parker Millsap grew up in the tiny town of Purcell, Oklahoma (pop. 5,952), where he attended a Pentecostal church with his family three times a week for most of his youth. Though Parker doesn’t consider himself very religious these days, the experiences engraved upon him inform his songwriting. Blending that fire and brimstone preaching with rock, country, blues and Waits-ian imagery, he has created a sound uniquely his own.

CHRIS FUGMANN JOINS ARRONCO COMFORT AIR Arronco Comfort Air is very excited to announce a new addi�on to our family, Chris Fugmann, as a sales representa�ve in the Lexington Market. Chris comes to us with 30 + years’ experience in heating & air condi�oning, and geothermal in the Lexington Market. Chris was the former owner of Climate Control in Lexington and sold his family business approximately five years ago. Chris remained with the company un�l March of this year when he decided it was �me for a change.

Andy Wolfe, Owner of Arronco, realized a�er several mee�ngs with Chris, “we all felt that Arronco was a great place for him to con�nue his career. Chris is a very genuine guy with a great deal of honesty and integrity and will be a great fit for our culture.

Climate Control was a very similar company to ours with a mix of work (Geothermal, replacement, service, new construc�on, and light commercial) so Chris is very familiar with the type of work we do. We are very excited about the knowledge, exper�se, and connec�ons that Chris will be bringing to the table to help Arronco take care of many more Lexington residents.” Chris started with Arronco Comfort Air May 2, 2018, and has hit the ground running.

Chris, a Lexington, KY na�ve, has been married to his wife Tracy for 22 years. He has two daughters; one is a junior at WKU, and the other is a freshman at UK. Chris has a love for swimming that started when he was a youngster.

He par�cipated in the Greater Lexington Swim Associa�on (GLSA) for twelve years where he set 18 state records and one KY State High School record. He played water polo and was an All American and named to the United States Water Polo Team. As a college swimmer, Chris achieved All American honors 9 �mes

and became an NCAA Na�onal Champion in the 400-yard I.M. in 1980. A�er his college career, Chris went on to coach swimming and has spent the last 30+ years coaching and is now the Head Coach for Kentucky Aqua�cs. His hobbies include swimming, any form of exercise, and he is a huge vegetable gardener. Chris said, “I le� our first mee�ng feeling excited and thinking that this might be a great opportunity for both of us. So a�erwards, I talked with my wife and we came to the conclusion that Arronco was the place for me to be. It feels like I joined my old family business, so I feel right at home.”

Arronco Comfort Air is a family owned and operated company that has been in business since 1984 serving Central and Northern KY. Arronco is the Region’s leader in installing and servicing geothermal HVAC, high-efficiency hea�ng and air condi�oning, and plumbing in both residen�al and light commercial applica�ons.
