EDITOR’S LETTER

Women Behaving Well

I

’ve always taken umbrage with the phrase, “Well-behaved women seldom make history.” The quote, wrongly credited to Marilyn Monroe for years, was actually inadvertently coined by historian Laurel Thatcher Ulrich as a tribute to “the silent work of ordinary people.” Of course, civil disobedience has its rightful place in combatting the social injustice that still surrounds us; but, the slogan itself, in many cases, has evolved into a universal permission slip encouraging behavior that is more likely to garner a mention in the tabloids rather than the history books. When I look back on the history of the Nfocus Model Behavior issue, it is filled with women who are effective change-makers in our community. Karen Casi (2011), the late Sug Schusterman (2012), Kinsey Morrison (2013) and Deborah Greenwald (2014) were

all principal examples of what it means to be a philanthropic leader by way of personal conviction; proof that, though well-behaved, they were anything but silent. The first time Madeline Abramson graced our cover in 2010 was in promotion of the inaugural Wrapped in Red Gala to benefit the American Red Cross. This year, she is joined by her fellow leaders in celebration of five years in which the Gala has been established as one of the premier philanthropic events in the city. Also influencing that success is founder of Think Tank Louisville, Randy Blevins, who made major contributions to Wrapped in Red as the Gala Chair in 2014 and whose supportive patience was evident on set as our talented hair and makeup professionals prepared the cast for the cover glamour shot. He’s proof that well-behaved men have a shot at history too.

Carnevale Desire Reimagined for Kentucky Opera Libby and Jim Voyles, Sissy Nash

K

entucky Opera’s 2015 Carnevale transported guests for a night in New Orleans, kicking off with a grand wine and spirit tasting, tunes by NOLA jazz band The Dixielanders and an extensive silent auction. Guests also had the opportunity to patronize the Yudofsky Boutique, where they could try on and bid on a variety of fine furs. Beautiful arias performed by the Opera’s principal artists set the tone for dinner before the live auction including high-end luxury items and unique exclusive experiences kicked off and guests migrated to Stella’s Big Easy Lounge to dance the night away. David Roth, the Kentucky Opera’s General Director said, “Carnevale 2015 was a gorgeous event that featured a Dixieland jazz band and the exceptional cast of A Streetcar Named Desire, each connecting us to the joie de vivre of New Orleans.” In describing the upcoming 2015-2016 season, Roth explained, “We are thrilled to continue our new repertory plan, presenting rarely seen operas in vibrant new productions along with new works that speak to the American Experience. We kick off our Brown-Forman 2015/16 Season with Verdi’s classic take on one of Shakespeare’s most popular plays, Macbeth, in a stunning new production from Opera Pacific Victoria, featuring two extraordinary artists Gregory Dahl and Lyne Fortin in the title roles. Jake Heggie’s Three Decembers, based on Terrance McNalley’s play about an aging Broadway star trying to resolve her relationship with her two adult children, opens in November. Originally written for Federica von Stade, we are thrilled to bring back to Louisville Denyce Graves to sing the dynamic role of Madeline. We close the season with Oscar Hammerstein and Jerome Kern’s Show Boat, an epic tale of life on the river that changed the face of Broadway. This will be the first time Kentucky presents this classic American musical drama. For our audiences, we offer three wonderful works that exemplify what opera is today, great stories told through music and drama.” For more information on the Kentucky Opera’s upcoming season and show packages visit kyopera.org.

Lobster Feast Spirit of New Orleans

L

et’s be honest – the good times always roll at Lobster Feast for Actors Theatre no matter what the inventive theme may be from year to year. But this year “laissez les bon temps roulez” was the expression of the evening with guests fully embracing the Spirit of New Orleans. With Tequila Herradura as presenting sponsor, was there ever any doubt? In addition to feathers, masks and beads galore creative krewes donned costumes ranging from the Interview with a Vampire characters to a Café du Monde waiter. At every turn, the Louisville Marriott Downtown was transformed to reflect the storied history of this great American city. After posing for photos among the opulent homes of the Garden District, attendees were then seduced by the mystique of the Voo Doo Lounge where a card reading session may have caused them to grip their signature hurricane a little tighter. The jam-packed silent auction spilled into the ballroom from the cocktail area where they were immediately swept away by the music and mood of the bayou. The main event is always the grand presentation of the lobsters when bibs replace beads as the must-have accessory of the night and more than 1,500 fresh lobsters were delivered right to the tables. As if the all-you-can-eat lobster was not enough, diners also had the option of a buffet filled with New Orleans-style fare. The energy couldn’t possibly wane during a live auction infused with just the right amount of sass by Red Lobsther and with incredible packages that included a tour of the Modern Family set followed by lunch with star of the show, Aubrey Anderson-Emmons who plays the hilarious Lily or a chance to travel to Los Angeles for the opening night of the critically-acclaimed Girlfriend directed by Actors Theatre Artistic Director, Les Waters. Until next February when we can escape to warmer temps through the new theme of Lobster Feast, we have the option to explore the world with Actors Theatre year ‘round. Luckily for us, Humana Festival of New American Plays is right around the corner to help us do just that! To attend a performance or support the Actors Theatre mission to unlock human potential, build community and enrich quality of life, please visit actorstheatre.org.

Twisted Pink Masquerade Ball Unmasking the Cure

Aneeta Bhatia, Venhat Sharma

T

he National Institute of Health reports that 40,000 women will die this year from metastatic breast cancer. The fact that this statistic hasn’t improved in 30 years is nothing short of twisted. Caroline Johnson agreed following her stage III breast cancer diagnosis in June 2014 so she formed Twisted Pink, a 100% volunteer driven organization with a mission to cure breast cancer through funding research and engaging the community. Among the guests at The Gillespie on the evening of February 7 was Twisted Pink board member and founder of Hope Scarves, Lara MacGregor, whose original breast cancer diagnosis came in 2007 at the age of 30 while seven months pregnant with her second son. After aggressive treatments, she was deemed cancer-free for six years until 2014 when her family’s worst fears were realized and she was told that matastasis had occurred. From a pink rhinestone podium, Lara appealed to the crowd with a powerful speech recalling, “The hopes and fears we had for the future came crashing down and our family was pushed back into the scary world of breast cancer, this time surrounded by deeper fear and terrifying statistics.” She went on to explain, “This side of the pink ribbon is often shunned for happier stories of survival, successful treatments and happy endings. This side of the ribbon is frayed and tattered and painful.” The excruciating reality is that 30% of people originally diagnosed with early stage breast cancer will go on to develop metastatic breast cancer. It is considered incurable with an average length of survival of three years. While there are currently no effective treatments, “I can’t give up hope,” Lara inspires. That hope comes in the form of the remarkable work at the James Graham Brown Cancer Center and investment in their research is essential to unmasking the cure. While the evening was an emotional one, the sounds of Burning Las Vegas encouraged the crowd to take it to the dance floor in celebration of hope remembering the powerful words of Lara MacGregor: “I can’t give up the belief that the best is yet to come. I have too much to life for.”

Wrapped

his year marks the fifth anniversary of Wrapped in Red Gala, the signature event of the American Red Cross Louisville Area Chapter. In just a few short years, the black tie event quickly established itself as one of the city’s premier philanthropic events with proceeds from the Gala and the Red Lounge benefitting community disaster programs. Since its inception, Wrapped in Red has raised nearly $600,000 to help communities prepare for and respond to disasters, and this year’s event on March 21, promises to be bigger and better than ever. “The first thing that the Red Cross does when they arrive at the scene, whether it’s a house fire or a natural disaster, is to wrap the victim in a soft blanket to provide comfort,” recalls Jennifer Powell, of how the organization came to agree upon the title Wrapped in Red for their signature event five years ago. She continues, “Then, of course, everyone associates red as the color of the American Red Cross, so the title really brought it back to the mission of what our efforts are all about.” Jennifer was the first ever co-chair of the event in 2011 with Madeline Abramson and the Brand

Director for Jack Daniels jokes, “They sold the responsibility to us as a package deal telling Madeline that they would get her a ‘helper’ and telling me – ‘You get to do this with Madeline Abramson!’” The combination of Jennifer’s marketing experience and fresh ideas coupled with Madeline’s 20 years of volunteer service at the Red Cross, including a two-year term as Chair of the Board of Directors, was a formula for success. “The Red Cross used to have a legacy event called The Gatsby Gala,” Madeline explained. “The theme was related to The Seelbach Hotel connection to The Great Gatsby and the character Daisy Buchannon being a Red Cross nurse in the novel. We made the decision to do away with that event and seven years later really got the support to develop Wrapped in Red and make it a first class affair. Of course, it’s primarily meant to be a fundraiser, but we also wanted it to be top-ofthe-line for our guests.” Madeline recruited Becky Lamb, whose husband Bill was on the board, as a committee member during the planning of the inaugural event.

That 70’s Show Mercedes Benz Fashion Week - Fall 2015 Ready-to-Wear

T

odd Harrison Calvert, buyer for Glasscock Boutique, braved the snow and the frigid February temps in New York in the name of fashion to bring to Nfocus readers his keen perspective on what is in store for Fall 2015. Of the 40 shows and countless showrooms he attends, his favorite designers to watch are Christian Siriano, Carolina Herrera, Naeem Kahn and Jason Wu (who he reports has unofficially taken the great American sportswear crown from Calvin Klein). Todd’s job is to interpret what the public will buy, and he predicts a disco revival. Straight from the 70’s, the halter dress and bell sleeves are overwhelmingly in homage to Halston and Dior. Every major collection showed at least a handful of these. Super lux sportswear is another trend that will serve from desk to dusk. Jason Wu has established himself as the clear front-runner in this category, with removable fur pieces, adaptable jackets that turn into vests and wonderful chic outerwear appropriate for anytime of the day. For evening, the trend is Hollywood glam with wonderful draping, beads, sequins and plunging necklines that any silver screen siren would be proud to wear and has already been this award season’s mainstay. The most dramatic shift for Fall will be in the skirts. Overwhelmingly, designers embraced an A-line or full skirt that will give just about any figure a soft and feminine silhouette. Hem lines continue to float from 2 inches above the knee to mid-calf, with 2 inches below the knee being the most popular. Fall will symbolize a major shift in trends. Christian

Siriano aptly stated about the average lady, “She is not shopping for another black coat. It has to be something she has not seen before,” and the 76-year-old Carolina Herrera said, “I’m trying to go to the future.” And to the future the divine Mrs. H went soaring with her enchanting water-inspired collection. When exploring what to add to your wardrobe this season, I would encourage every lady to invest in a couple of pairs of high-waisted pants with basic black and winter white as the most reliable staples. They are much more flattering than the hip-hugging pants that have been so popular in recent seasons. Expect to pair those with wonderful cable knits along with hand-painted and embroidered cashmeres. For anyone willing to pay the price, anything crocodile will play into Spring and Fall of 2016 collections. From simple bolero jackets to skirts and even tops, crocodile of many colors will be the statement pieces moving forward. For the more cost-conscious, tweeds of any variety will be important. From rich Harris to traditional Prince of Wales, it appears that the Irish are back in business with the wool trade. Zac Posen and Carolina Herrera both feature inspired suits, jackets and dresses made from these fabrics. Color plays an important part in every collection, and I am sure that Pantone has been busy naming each of the new colors for Fall. For example, we will not be seeing much gray, but plenty of Aluminum. There are no rusts, but plenty of Sangria, Cognac and Mauve Mist will be hitting stores by August. Royal Blue and winter whites

gave each major collection a cohesive force, but many designers opted for Chalk and Bright Cobalt. Aurora Red will be a must have color for every wardrobe, along with Sea Fog and Cypress. Overall, “real” winters are back in fashion, but let’s hope not for long. Every major collection is heavy on outerwear for Fall, and especially heavy on fur. Bibhu Mohapatra and J. Mendel, the masters of fur, both utilized mixed pelt coats, often with beaded embellishments. Herrera’s white sheared mink and fox jacket with a bright red beaded wave is a stand out! Warm felted wools, needle-punched mohair and techno-jersey played central roles in every collection for both day and evening. Overall, opulence and souped-up elegance was the general theme for most designers, with Escada leading that pack. Ladies are clearly expected to be dressing for lunch once again, with fabrics that are luxurious and comfortable to the touch. The look is tailored and slimming without being confining. Rolando Santana is a new kid to watch! His collection is made for any woman out there. It is sexy while still remaining classic. A lovely lady in her own right, Barbara Tfank continues to be a beacon of elegance through her utilization of retro-inspired fabrics and feminine necklines. There is a reason that she dresses the Duchess of Cambridge so often! And I could not mention newcomers without speaking of Georgine! Another beautiful lady, Georgine understands modern elegance, and her collection is perfect for any lady who wishes to be on the cutting edge of fashion.

Breaking The Cycle of Poverty Through The Pathway of Hope Each and every day The Salvation Army of Louisville welcomes hundreds of individuals and families in need of a hand up. For some, it’s a hot meal or a safe place to lay their head at night; others come seeking emergency assistance, money to help keep the lights on or pay their rent. Unfortunately, all too often, many of the faces are familiar; they are men, women and children stuck in a seemingly never ending cycle of generational poverty with little or no hope of ever escaping it. In fact, studies show that children who grow up in poverty are 32 times more likely to be in poverty as adults. So the numbers beg the question, how then to break this cycle? How can we get to the root causes keeping families from becoming selfreliant? The Salvation Army believes it has a solution; providing a Pathway of Hope. The Pathway of Hope is not a program but rather a holistic approach designed to increase stability and

sufficiency for families. It addresses not only material needs, but spiritual and emotional needs as well. This targeted approach works with families who desire to take action to break the cycle of crisis; families who are typically repeat applicants of emergency assistance. It is The Salvation Army’s desire to shift from serving clients to using long term interventions that will help address and solve the client’s root cause barriers to sufficiency. The Pathway of Hope will empower families to achieve change by recognizing their inherent strengths and skills by developing an individualized action plan to reach their goals and utilize both the Army’s vast array of resources and the resources offered by other supporting agencies; i.e job training, health and legal services and housing options. The benefit to participants is building a network of community support along with The Salvation Army’s spiritual guidance which we are uniquely equipped

to handle. By deploying this holistic and collaborative model, the likelihood of success for participants is greatly enhanced. Through case management and spiritual care, client expectations are raised thus creating hope for a better future. By targeting families with children, we plan to break the cycle of poverty for the next generation. Community support, as is the case for all Salvation Army programs and services, is essential to ensuring the Pathway of Hope initiative reaches its full potential and there are many ways people can have an impact; including monetary donations as well as mentoring and professional skills that can be deployed side-byside with families. Contact us today to find out how you can help become a shield for those in your community by supporting The Salvation Army and the Pathway of Hope initiative. Working together we are Doing The Most Good!

Honoring Family through Philanthropy

F

or Baritonne Jeanty, philanthropy has always been a way of life. Her father, the late Pastor Michel Vital, worked in the ministry for over 40 years, moving from Cap-Haitian to Port Au Prince with a lifelong dream to build a Community Center where disadvantaged area residents could find any support they needed, be it educational, spiritual or vocational. Baritonne recalls, “My father always encouraged us to help people because if God blesses you, you must pass it on.” To realize his dream, Pastor Vital bought land in Gressier, Haiti in 1975 where he established a school for primary age children and, eventually, built a church and opened a vocational school. Following the death of her father in 2000, Baritonne and her brother, Giovani Vital, established a foundation in his name, the Michel Vital Foundation, to honor him and to continue the work of his lifelong dream. Upon his passing, Michel Vital’s work had ultimately resulted in five churches and two primary and secondary schools, leaving the chief mission of the foundation to complete his goal of an orphanage and a clinic. After immigrating to America from Haiti, Baritonne realized one of her personal dreams by working her way through college as a nursing assistant to obtain a Bachelor of Science in Nursing. She continued her commitment to making a dif-

ference in the corner of the world that she knew best, and that pledge became more essential than ever in 2010, following the catastrophic earthquake in Haiti. With so many children left without homes, Baritonne, through the Foundation, knew it was paramount to open an orphanage to assist them. In only a few short years, the Foundation has been able to house 18 young girls in Gressier, a community that exists in extreme poverty about 15 miles from the capital city Port Au Prince. Current plans include the establishment of a similar orphanage for boys along with a cafeteria and play yard. Their child-centered work helps children develop their strengths by focusing on education, health, wellbeing and self-sufficiency. Those placed in the orphanage are given the advantage of attending the Foundation’s school, and upon completion, are enrolled in a transitional phase to pursue vocational training, a university education or obtain gainful employment. Baritonne is a vehicle for innovative and sustainable change in Haiti, and though her work toward this cause has spanned decades, the hope created through the mission of the Michel Vital Foundation is only in the beginning. You can join this effort to assist some of the most vulnerable children in the world by sponsoring a child or a project at michelvitalfoundation.org.

Community focused, volunteer run, and driven to shape our future by changing the odds for our kids: for decades, Metro United Way has focused on solving community problems and that will never change. What has changed is how we help solve those problems; today we work more strategically with more partners to bring more people together to focus much more deeply on root causes of social problems. We all win when a child succeeds in school, when a neighborhood turns around, when families have good health and when workers have solid jobs. At Metro United Way, our vision is a community whose people achieve their fullest potential through education, financial stability and healthy lives – the building blocks for a good quality of life. We’re proud of all that we’ve been able to achieve in our long history of service, and we are excited about our community’s future. What can you do to help? Demonstrate your support for our kids with your generosity to Metro United Way. Volunteer – maybe by reading, tutoring or mentoring a child. Raise your voice and be heard as an advocate for education initiatives. If we are serious about reducing poverty, achieving greater equity and social stability, and increasing economic growth for our community, investing in our children is imperative. Join us and Live United.

A Chat with President & Winemaker Logan Leet Old 502 Winery

A

furniture retailer, inn keeper, vineyard owner, musician and bee keeper: all occupations and hobbies of Logan Leet, President and Winemaker for Old 502 Winery. His varied experience pairs well with the Old 502 brand. Much like the pairing of a bold red wine with a hearty steak, his character compliments the unique style and stand out taste of the wine he makes. With labels that bear names such as B*%#@!N Barrel Red and White Noise: Turn It Up, it is certain that Old 502 Winery offers blends that do not blend in with the rest.

Old 502 Winery is described as the “anti-winery.” How is this reflected in the atmosphere and the wine itself? Most wineries are set in an idyllic vineyard setting. We are, of course, downtown. We just try to play off of that unusual winery setting. As far as the wine making process, we are using rather conventional methods. We make proprietary blends with almost everything which makes us a little different. We have a few varietals such as our Riesling (Reese Ling) and a Chardonnay (Sounds Like Shar-Duh-Nay, Tastes Like Wine). Most everything is blended. Our primary purpose is to make a consistent product. We don’t crush the fruit on site. We will even process some of our product at other vineyards though we bottle it all here.

What makes Old 502 Winery a great destination for a wine-tasting experience? We are very convenient for tourists and locals. We are truly a tasting room although we do offer a little nosh- charcuterie trays with meats and cheese. We are getting ready to make our food offerings a little more extensive. We really try to surround what we do around the wine tasting experience itself. We do a tasting of any six wines at an affordable price and give you the wine glass as a souvenir. We’re also the tasting room and tap room for Falls City Beer (made right next door). We’re in a very cool old industrial building on 10th street and very easily reached from I-64. We have plenty of parking around us.

After picking up a bottle or two of an Old 502 wine, what considerations should be made when pairing with food? There are a couple different rationales for pairing certain wines and food. We want to match the wine’s character or we want to contrast it. A good example would be a Riesling pairs well with Asian food. The hint of sweetness in the wine offsets the acidity and spice in the Asian food. That’s an example of a pairing where you might use an opposite. Another example might be our Bore Dough (a Bordeax blend)-a dry red wine-which will pair very well with beef. The heavier red wine matches the heavi-

ness of the red meat. The same wine will pair well with chocolate: the rich dessert can stand up to the wine’s character. The sweetness of the chocolate offsets the acidity of the wine and they complement one another. A food pairing can totally change the taste of the wine. We like to pair with food that is very much like the wine or very much the opposite.

What about your background-how did you become a part of Old 502 Winery? My background is pretty varied. I grew up in my family’s furniture business in Lexington. I’ve been an inn keeper in downtown Lexington, a musician, a bee keeper… I got into the wine business in the mid 2000’s by virtue of living next door to a vineyard in Anderson County – Lover’s Leap, which I ended up buying and eventually selling about three years ago. Shortly after that, I got a call from the owners here at Old 502 who wanted help with some changes to their winery-then called Riverbend. Our marketing plan was based on doing something different. We chose a name that was a bit edgier and try to just have fun with the labels and names-and to really play on our unusual location. We have assembled a great group of people and work very collaboratively.

What’s next for the Old 502 brand? We are mainly trying to expand our distribution. We are extremely dense in the Louisville area but we are also distributed pretty heavily in the Northern Kentucky and Lexington areas. We’re only up to around Bloomington, Indiana, and looking to expand into Indianapolis and then into the Ohio and Cincinnati area. Perhaps, a little later in the year, we could end up in Tennessee. We want to remain service driven, even as our distribution expands. On the retail side, here at the winery, we are looking to do more music and will continue to participate in festivals around the city. We are considering putting on our own festival. We are going to have more outside space as well-an informal Biergarten- as the weather gets a little warmer. Also moving into the warmer months, we’ve got a little underground buzz going for a slushie mix. It’s a drink mix called Bach’s Berry Bliss. We may expand that idea a little bit this year. In addition to being a unique urban winery that is distinctly Louisville (their Run for the Rose is the “Official Wine of the Kentucky Derby Festival”), Old 502 is also a winery with a commitment to the community. Over the past year, they hosted fundraising events for such causes as Brides Against Breast Cancer and The Kentucky Homefront, a radio show heard on WFPK. A good cause is something to which we can all raise a glass. ​ La uren Schuhmann

Kids are special at St. Vincent de Paul. More than 300 people, including formerly homeless families with 60 children, live in supportive housing programs (apartments) on the charity’s large, inner-city campus. Although the surrounding neighborhoods of Shelby Park and Smoketown are among Louisville’s poorest -- with more than half of all households living below the poverty line -- St. Vincent de Paul Families and Children have a support system. In addition to stable housing in new, furnished apartments, families receive professional case management from SVDP’s team of social workers. Together, they address each family’s needs and tackle challenges that will help children thrive and help guide their parents toward greater personal achievement and self-sufficiency.

St. Vincent de Paul’s exciting new Family Success Center opened last fall to serve these families and others in the community with structured, after-school educational and recreational programs. The facility is equipped with a gym, computer lab, arts ‘n’ crafts room and a top-ofthe-line teaching kitchen, where kids receive cooking and nutrition lessons. Tutors, volunteers from area schools, and staff oversee daily activities. A Dare to Care Kids Café even provides weeknight dinners. Families also have access to St. Vincent de Paul’s new Food Pantry and to the well-regarded Open Hand Kitchen, housed in a beautiful former church sanctuary. The soup kitchen, which relies on donations and volunteers, serves free, hot meals to the community daily at noon and 5pm. This year, the kitchen will serve 140,000 meals, thanks to our compassionate supporters. Join them.

oozie Eastman is a glowing burst of energy. This vigor has no doubt aided her successful career. A Louisville native and graduate from UofL, Eastman received her Master’s in Film from Chapman University of Orange County, California. She lived in Los Angeles for the next 12 years working as a producer and director. The last two years Eastman has focused on fundraising for her documentary Overload: America’s Toxic Love Story. This documentary explores the effect of American’s everyday exposure to chemicals in our food, cleaning products and toiletries. She decided a lower cost of living would provide for speedier savings, so Eastman moved back home to fundraise for her project. When help was needed with the Louisville IF Film Festival last fall, Eastman stepped in, successfully producing it in partnership with IdeaFestival. After presenting 13 films, she was asked to work for LFS, becoming their first paid employee as the new Interim Executive Director. Her position with LFS is part-time, so Eastman is still able to film her documentary while in Louisville, a project that became fully funded in December. Though she starts pre-production this month, her executive producers and network live in LA, so Eastman will be a frequent-flier. Shooting will take place not only between Louisville and LA, but in New York, Washington DC, Oakland. Meanwhile, Eastman has plenty of new ideas for LFS. She plans on growing the film community and creating programing that entertains and engages film lovers. This year LFS will have many screenings, education workshops and possibly two film festivals. Eastman visited Sundance a few weeks

ago to prepare for Louisville’s 2015 film festival(s.) “We wanted to start getting our eyes and ears out in the community so that we could bring films that might not otherwise be brought to Louisville. We will have something for everybody.” LFS membership can be gained for only $50 a year. “We are a member-driven organization, so we are supported through memberships and sponsorships in our community.” The cost for LFS events are discounted for members while other events are occasionally held only for members. Eastman arranged the recent screening of Dumb and Dumber 2 in Louisville with producer Joey McFarland (also producer of The Wolf of Wall Street). Upon notification of the exclusive premiere, LFS members had the advantage of viewing the comedy a week before it hit theatres. “The benefits and discounts available to our members far outweigh that fifty dollars,” Eastman said. Most recently, LFS members enjoyed an Oscar viewing party at Copper and Kings on February 22nd. A $100 ticket ($75 for members) allowed guests to view the star-studded Academy Awards on seven televisions and a large projector. Film enthusiasts enjoyed an open bar with custom celebrity cocktails and dessert bar, and could try their movie knowledge at a ballot competition with a $250 prize. Auction packages were available from local businesses including Highland Cleaners, Primp Style Lounge and the Louisville Orchestra. Eastman can’t wait to see what Louisville holds for LFS in 2015 and we can’t wait to see what the future holds for this budding documentary filmmaker. Perhaps she will go from planning an Oscar viewing party to writing her acceptance speech in pursuit of that coveted gold statue. Allison GoodAn

CHARITY SPOTLIGHT

Sterling Service Tea Ministry

A

cup of kindness, a spoonful of understanding and a side of great conversation are what await those invited to a Sterling Service Tea Ministry event. Started in 2004 by Trudy Wheeler, the teas bring together cancer survivors and those battling cancer, as well as their family members and friends in a caring, comfortable and entertaining atmosphere. The events- held three times a year- feature creative themes, delicious menus and interesting guest speakers. Through the selfless efforts of a group of devoted members of Christ Church United Methodist, the teas have continued completely free of charge for over 10 years. Though the sole purpose is to provide support to those who have been touched by cancer, the teas are much more than a typical support group gathering and offer a unique way to share experiences, celebrate victories and mingle with new friends. Following the loss of a dear friend to colon cancer in 2004, Trudy was inspired to start the Sterling Service Tea Ministry as a way to remember her friend. “When we were together we always enjoyed going out to find a tea room when she would visit me or I would visit her. The idea came together that this would be a nice way to honor her memory.” What started as a small group of volunteers and a guest list of less than 20 people has grown to a committee of 40 ladies and guest list of over 100. Guests return year after year for the “sisterhood and camaraderie that they find,” Trudy explains. “It’s a little different for each person-the women and the husbands who attend. I think that one of the out-

lets is a social component that is not centered on the research or problems associated with cancer. The ladies can come here and find not only a connection due to a diagnosis but also a love of tea and conversation.” Those who attend can expect, as the name implies, the finest tea service as well as delectable sweet and savory treats and interesting speakers. Guest speakers such as PJ Cooksey, Cindi Sullivan, Jeanine Triplett and Joan Waddell have presented at past events. “We look for speakers who can talk to guests about topics that might be of special interest to women in general. Often times, the guest speakers have a connection to cancer that we do not know about until we meet them. The topic is not cancer, specifically,” Trudy shares. “My friend Jane, a guest who has since passed away, shared that what she most enjoyed about the teas is that it connected her with other women who had cancer, but their connection was not solely based on their diagnosis. The tea was not about the research and nitty-gritty of dealing with cancer. It’s a space for women to come over a shared diagnosis but not be defined by that diagnosis.” In order for the Sterling Service Tea Ministry to continue to serve the community, Trudy shares that what they need most is volunteers. “We are looking for men and women who are interested in cooking and serving; those who have a servant’s heart.” She also hopes to find help in publishing a cookbook based on the 10 years worth of menus. “Our menus are unbelievable.” To volunteer or to request an invitation for yourself or a loved one, contact Christ Church United Methodist @ 502-897-6421.

The American Red Cross prevents and alleviates human suffering in the face of emergencies by mobilizing the power of volunteers and the generosity of donors. Thanks to its volunteers, financial supporters and community partners, the Red Cross responds to disasters 24 hours a day, 365 days a year; reduces the impact of disasters through preparedness education; empowers people with lifesaving training in the workplace, classroom and online; supports military families with emergency communications and other services; and supplies about 40 percent of the nation’s blood supply. We provide humanitarian services throughout Kentucky and Southern Indiana. Nearly 2,500 volunteers dedicate themselves to meet people’s immediate disaster-caused needs for food, clothing, shelter and emotional support. Our teams respond to nearly

800 disasters annually, the most common disaster being home fires, and assist more than 2,800 people. In addition to disaster relief, we reach more than 28,000 people in our communities through preparedness presentations and lifesaving training such as CPR and First Aid. The Red Cross in Louisville is also home to one of four military emergency call centers in the world. Trained caseworkers help military members and their families in times of emergency; we also provide emotional support through a variety of programs at Ft. Knox. Our incredible network of volunteers, donors and partners helps turn compassion into action every day. Their devotion, generosity of spirit and compassion is what has kept Red Cross strong for more than 130 years. If you would like to make a difference, contact us today!

shley Davis sheds light on her bright and shiny family-owned business, Davis Jeweler. Currently in their fourth generation, Davis Jewelers began as a general store in the 20’s. When The Great Depression hit, business took an interesting turn. “People started bringing in items for trade, so it naturally became a pawn shop,” Ashley said. Her father, Hank Davis, was more interested in the fine jewelry side of the pawn shop, so 14 years ago, when they moved from downtown Louisville to their freestanding location on Forest Green Boulevard, it become Davis Jewelers. As Vice President, Ashley has been with the company for 11 years. “Bridal is the heart of our business,” Ashley said. “But we have something here for everything you would need.” Davis has an extensive and diverse collection of jewelry and watches, financial and appraisal service along with jewelry and watch repair. They even create custom designs and buy gold. As big name in the fine jewelry business as well as locally-owned, Davis is the official jeweler for the Kentucky Derby. “It’s nice to keep it local,” Ashley said. Noted also for their community generosity, they also make charitable donations year-round. “We try to do different things to give back to the city,” Ashley said. Davis has made a jewelry donation to Wrapped in Red Gala, run by the American Red Cross, for the past five years. They have tried to incorporate red

into the donated jewelry piece, in the past with a ruby. This year, they are donating a matching pendant necklace ($215) and bangle ($500) by Belle Etoile. A beautiful sterling silver design with bezel-set stones and hand-painted red Italian enamel from the Royale Collection, this timeless set is sure to turn heads and encourage guests of Wrapped in Red to open their wallets for a good cause and a great set of jewels. “It’s important as an independent jeweler to give back to the community,” Ashely said. Having just wrapped the busy Valentine’s Day season, they look forward to the next great bustle which will come May 10th for Mother’s Day. However, it may come as no surprise that their biggest business of the year comes in December. “Christmas is bigger than Mother’s Day and Valentine’s Day combined,” Ashley said. The mission of Davis Jewelers? At Davis, it’s personal. One-on-one service shines just as bright as their De Beers diamonds. “Some stores are transactional - we are relational,” Ashley said. “It’s important to build a relationship with our customer that goes beyond their purchase.” As the largest jewelry store in Louisville, Davis wants you to feel welcomed, not intimidated. “Don’t let the size of the store scare you,” Ashley said. “We are here to cater to you.” From a jeweler you can trust, stop by to give this local and family-owned business a look. Their selection and personal service will not disappoint. allison Goodan

hile it may look like she was resting on the job, Carroll DeHart Hollenbach was hard at work in her modeling days. The Louisville native modeled for Alix Adams, one of the country’s oldest talent agencies that has represented actors and models in the region for over 60 years. Carroll is the mother of Louis Jacob (Todd) Hollenbach, John Phillip Hollenbach and Caroline (Winkie) Dawkins. Louisville models will be in high demand over the next two months as the Derby City’s fashion season kicks off on catwalks across town and across the bridge. New to the lineup this year, Runway & Rescue, presented by Rodes, will be held on March 14 at Frazier History Museum and will benefit Saddlebred Rescue as well as American Saddlebred Museum. Macy’s Spring Fashion Show on March 26 at Horseshoe Southern Indiana is sure to entertain you while providing ready-to-wear options for every Kentucky Derby Festival event. If you want a little more avant-garde inspiration, be sure to attend KMAC Couture on April 17 where art will walk the runway for Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft.
