A New Trifecta for t he ar t s by REMY SISK

You’ve heard its name. Its presence in the Greater Louisville community is nearly unparalleled, its ubiquity matched in strength by its mission. The Fund for the Arts is a historic Louisville nonprofit; however, far too few members of the community truly understand its impact and, moreover, its significance. Fund for the Arts not only financially supports its cultural partners – what it is perhaps most known for – but it also is working harder than ever to bring the arts to those who may not experience it otherwise. Furthermore, in addition to its year-round day-to-day operations, the Fund is looking ahead specifically to April 30 for its grandest event yet: the inaugural Awards in the Arts.

“The model has been for years how can the community help the arts – but that’s changing dramatically to how can we best serve the community through the arts.” -Eric Gurevich The Fund for the Arts is the country’s oldest united arts fund, having been established in 1949 by Louisville Mayor Charles Farnsley. It has a long history of working to fundraise to support the city’s myriad of arts institutions and has indeed been largely responsible for the prosperity of Louisville’s robust arts community. Last year alone, it raised $8,015,600 for arts in the region. However, the Fund is looking beyond simply fundraising for the arts as Eric Gurevich, the Fund for the Arts communications and engagement manager, describes, “The model has been for years how can the community help the arts – but that’s changing dramatically to how can we best serve the community through the arts.” What that means is that the Fund is indeed looking to continue fundraising, but it is also striving to expand arts outreach to the Louisville community and beyond. “Two of our biggest priorities since Christen Boone, our A P R I L 1 4 , 2 0 1 6 • V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

CEO, came on were how do we increase access to the arts for every member of the community – for every kid, every businessperson, every senior,” Gurevich relates. “How do we bring the arts to them?” While part of that is bringing the arts directly into schools, offices and healthcare facilities, it also involves a staggering amount of educational programs. “Arts in education is genuinely building 21st century skills – creativity, collaboration, critical thinking and communication,” Gurevich explains of the importance of the Fund’s several education outreach programs. The 5x5 program, for example, works to ensure that a student has at least five arts/cultural experiences by the completion of fifth grade. In 2015, the Fund worked with 60 JCPS schools on 290 projects, providing 49,196 arts experiences. 100 percent of these schools consequently reported seeing overall score gains in report card data.

In addition to its fundraising and education efforts, the Fund has also been hard at work on Awards in the Arts, which will take place April 30 at Churchill Downs on Opening Night. It will be the first event in the newly renovated Stakes Room and the first event, other than Oaks and Derby, to see a sold-out Stakes Room. The event is a threeway collaboration between the Fund for the Arts, Churchill Downs and the Jennifer Lawrence Foundation, and, as Fund for the Arts Corporate Relations Director Abby Shue details, this synergetic triumvirate is thanks to, at least partially, absolutely perfect timing. “We’ve had a long partnership with Churchill Downs, and they’ve actually been supporting some of our education work in schools near the racetrack,” Shue explains. “But they have a new director of community relations – Lauren DePaso – and she really saw possibilities more broadly to bring an engagement piece, to bring the arts to PHOTOS COURTESY OF FUND FOR THE ARTS

the track. So it’s been a long conversation where we realized we were trying to spread access to the arts and they were trying to make opening night have little bit more of a splash. So it really was the perfect timing.” Meanwhile, the Jennifer Lawrence Foundation, led by Meredith Lawrence, was seeking to increase its footprint in the community, and as Jennifer Lawrence herself was a student of Walden Theatre, the Fund and this event in particular seemed to be a perfect match for that organization as well. Indeed, Shue emphasizes that, although the Fund had long been wanting to hold an event like this, it never seemed to be able to come to fruition. But thanks to these new partners, it’s finally happening – and in the grandest way possible. “We were committed to not being another long awards ceremony in Louisville, and so once we found the Churchill piece and the Jennifer Lawrence piece, we were like, ‘This is how we can make it happen, and these are the right partners to work with,’” Shue enthuses. The night itself will, of course, feature the presentation of the six Awards in the Arts, but for guests, it will also be a true exploration of the arts and a tour of some of the city’s top arts organizaA P R I L 1 4 , 2 0 1 6 • V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

tions. “It’s $10 per ticket, and you’re getting a genuine arts experience at every turn,” Gurevich affirms. “It’s going to be pop-up performances. It’s going to be live painting, live music, aerial artists. So you’re going to the track, but you’re also going to experience the arts.” Shue meanwhile highlights the fact that the Awards in the Arts directly speak to the Fund’s current outreach efforts in bringing the Arts to those who may not otherwise experience them. “Yes, we want people to participate by going to museums and going to theaters, but the reality is, even looking at our donor base of 20,000 people, that’s not for everyone,” she admits. “So it’s a big shift of how do we take arts into schools, into community centers, into healthcare facilities and aging-care facilities, and this night is an extension of that in a major way.” Gurevich is especially excited about the recognition the awarded artists will receive at the event. “This is an opportunity to raise awareness and funds absolutely, but it is also a way to celebrate these artists on a huge scale,” he insists. And nothing proved how truly needed this event was more than the call for nominations for the awards themselves. The Fund had six categories and received a

total of 120 nominations, making the selection process astoundingly difficult. However, Shue and Gurevich agree that the Fund could not be prouder or more honored to recognize the winning individuals and organizations. Due to its constant providing of worldclass cultural events and its efforts to bring the arts to underserved communities, The Kentucky Center for the Performing Arts is the recipient of The Republic Bank Foundation Arts Impact Award. The Kentucky Center is so much more than just a venue for the arts, and the Fund is proud to highlight the Center’s exceptional impact on the community. Meanwhile, Teddy Abrams, music director of the Louisville Orchestra, is the recipient of The Bittners Arts Innovation Award. Abrams’ undeniable creativity and collaborative spirit made him a prime candidate for the award, as does the fact that he has truly transformed the Orchestra since he came on board less than three seasons ago. Louisville’s leading child-friendly the-

atre company, StageOne Family Theatre, is the recipient of The Yum! Brands Foundation Arts Education Award. Over its nearly 70-year history, it has served over three million children and helped introduce them to the magic of the arts. Moreover, it has illustrated how effectively the arts, and more specifically theatre, can be used as an educational tool. Thanks to his outstanding contribution to Louisville arts via his magnificent sculpture work, Edward Hamilton is the recipient of the Lifetime Achievement in the Arts Award. Hamilton’s work can be seen across the city with perhaps one of his most notable works being the Abraham Lincoln Memorial at Waterfront Park. Hamilton is a nationally renowned artist and spends much of his time striving to give back to his hometown of Louisville. Finally, Louisville’s own hip-hop artist Jecorey “1200” Arthur is the recipient of The University of Louisville Emerging Leader in the Arts Award. A classically trained musician who performs as a rapper under the name 1200, Arthur is a music

teacher at Hite Elementary School and a true advocate for the community, particularly the West End of Louisville. There is a sixth award, the National Award in the Arts – which recognizes outstanding achievement in Louisville and on a national scale – and the winner will be announced on the night of the event. Winners will take home a one-of-a-kind statue by local sculptor Mike McCarthy as well as a cash grant from Fund for the Arts. Without question, this night and the institution of these awards will only add to Fund for the Arts’ unparalleled efforts in the city. Shue relates that from the very beginning, Fund for the Arts has sought to make the arts a preeminent piece of Louisville culture: “Mayor Farnsley’s vision in 1949 was every city has those things that define it, that make it different, that make it a place businesses will want to locate, where people will want to move – and his thought was that for Louisville, that’s the arts.” Thanks to its fundraising, education outreach and now artist recognition, it is quite clear that Farnsley’s vision has indeed become a reality.

Old School Success

or the bulk of my adolescence, nearly every adult conversation about Louisville basketball that I listened in on was centered around what was wrong with the program and what could be done to get it back to where it had been in the 1980s. While the number of discussions were abundant, their focal points were limited to a select few areas.

MIKE RUTHERFORD @cardchronicle

First, there was the commonly held thought that Louisville’s struggles were the

direct product of a perceived loss of the ability to recruit at an elite level. Second, there was the notion that the game was passing Denny Crum by, a discussion that was typically an offshoot of the first one. Third, there were concerns over UofL’s conference affiliation, worries that weren’t quashed until the Cards became members of the Big East in 2005.

The final centerpiece of negative attention – one that was near and dear to this group of local college hoops masterminds – was that the city of Louisville wasn’t producing the type of talent it had in decades past and that when it was, that talent was choosing not to play for the hometown team. The most glaring example of this was when Wade and Alan Houston headed to Tennessee, an event that is still widely viewed as the beginning of the end for the Crum era at UofL. Louisville’s initial rise to prominence on college basketball’s national scene was fueled by local talent like Wes Unseld, Wesley Cox and, of course, Darrell Griffith. The products of this era, or those who experienced some taste of it, romanticize it in the same way that the college kids of today remember the Disney Channel of their youth or the way early ’90s kids speak about skip-its and one strap overalls.

Quentin Snider (2) shot free throws late in the second half putting the Cardinals ahead against the UC Irvine Anteaters during the second round of the 2015 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament at Key Arena on March 20, 2015 in Seattle. Louisville won, 57-55.

A P R I L 1 4 , 2 0 1 6 • V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

For whatever reason, the quality of high school basketball in the city of Louisville nosedived in the early 1990s. Coincidentally or not, the UofL basketball program began to trend in a downward direction as well. After losing Houston to Tennessee, Crum had some success with the likes of Dwayne Morton, Jason Osborne

18

and DeJuan Wheat but not enough to get back to the Final Four for a seventh time. Rick Pitino’s early relationship with the local hoops scene wasn’t any better. First, he was burned by former Ballard standout and noted troublemaker Brandon Bender, who quit the team three months into Pitino’s debut season with the Cards. Next, his focus on New York City point guard Sebastian Telfair cost him Eastern High (and Oak Hill Academy) product Rajon Rondo, who wound up at Kentucky despite spending his youth cheering for Louisville. Even Larry O’Bannon, easily the most successful homegrown talent of the Pitino era thus far, spent three and a half seasons struggling before coming out of virtually nowhere to be one of the stars of UofL’s run to the 2005 Final Four. Now, with Cardinal basketball in the midst of some of its most successful years since those glory days of the early-to-mid 1980s, the Louisville high school scene is finally getting back to serving up some of the top players in the country to aid in success at the college level. First, there’s starting point guard Quentin Snider, the Ballard star who became the first local Mr. Basketball to sign with the Cards since Jason Osborne in 1993. Snider, who surpassed Allan Houston’s all-time scoring record at Ballard, is coming off a stellar sophomore season in which he shot better than 40 percent from beyond the arc, dished out an average of 3.5 assists per game and nearly averaged double figures in scoring. After a freshman season where he showed why Rick Pitino lauded his NBA potential, former Trinity star Raymond Spalding should also push for a starting spot in 201617. Despite playing a standard center role for the Shamrocks in high school, Spalding gave glimpses of his potential to be a star at the power forward position, often changing games with his length and athleticism. With North Oldham’s David Levitch, Bullitt East’s Tyler Sharpe and UofL’s newest player, former Manual star Dwayne Sutton (a UNC Asheville transfer who was the Big South Tournament MVP as a freshman), the Cardinals suddenly have a roster with more local flair than ever before in the Pitino era. Louisville basketball has been back for some time now, but this recent period of extreme success has come without a heavy dose of homegrown talent. It would appear as though that tide has turned, a fact that should make everyone in this area who loves basketball very excited. VT PHOTO BY CHRIS WILSON

Such as – well, has anyone ever heard of Tyler Ulis? Yes, another $3 million earner – which is sort of peanuts when one considers the $11.7 million earned by his immediate predecessor, Brandon Knight, or the $38.8 million earned by his immediate predecessor-plus-one, John Wall. Then there’s James Young, a ton of unrealized talent, who was the 17th pick in the 2014 draft class by the Celtics and has seen his playing time drop from 11 minutes per game last year to seven this year, all while calling Portland, Maine home much more frequently than Boston. (The Red Claws!) His contract will pay him $6.4 million over the next three years. But is it guaranteed? With so many free agents and college players coming along, it’s difficult to think NBA teams are just throwing their money around at guys – even first-round picks – who have played a total of 530 pro minutes. Finally, there’s Dakari Johnson. Unlike the others mentioned, the affable big man actually returned to Kentucky for his sophomore season – and still fled too early. He still had a significant upside to his game. He was a second-round pick by the Oklahoma City Thunder, but has spent the entire year with the Oklahoma City Blue. Maybe the whole world is still open to him. Maybe he’s getting a fancy D-League salary. But he could have been a huge missing piece of the 2015-16 team. Which again begs the question: Did they leave too soon for them? Or for us? VT V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M • A P R I L 1 4 , 2 0 1 6

Nyquist Looking Stronger As Derby 142 Date Draws Near

he significant prep races have dwindled to something less than a handful, but the message delivered by months of competition on “The Road to the Kentucky Derby” (“RTTKD”) continues to point in one direction.

Red Wings seems well-positioned to turn the Derby into a personal power play.

Horse Sense JOHN ASHER

The message is simply just over three weeks out: J. Paul Reddam’s unbeaten Nyquist, the reigning 2-year-old champion of 2015, should be a handful at Churchill Downs in the big race on the first Saturday in May. The horse named to honor National Hockey League star Gustav Nyquist of the Detroit A P R I L 1 4 , 2 0 1 6 • V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

The son of sizzling sire Uncle Mo, himself a young phenom who was a beaten Kentucky Derby favorite, has the opportunity to continue a rare journey with a Derby win.

If the Doug O’Neill trainee wins America’s greatest race, he will be the first 3-year-old to emerge from the Derby with a perfect record since Smarty Jones in 2004. He would be on a path previously traveled by Hall-of-Fame legend and 1977 Derby-winner Seattle Slew, who endures as the first-and-only Triple Crown champion to complete the three-race

20

series that includes the Derby, Preakness and Belmont Stakes with a perfect record intact. Slew was part of a run of racing excellence in the 1970s that also featured Secretariat – the American sports icon who in 1973 won the Derby and became the first Triple Crown winner in 25 years – and Affirmed, who in 1978 would be the last 3-year-old to complete the rare sweep until American Pharoah ended the agonizing wait for the next Triple Crown champion last spring. While Nyquist has a better racing record than American Pharoah at this point of their respective careers, O’Neill’s colt has to work a bit harder to earn the overall respect and acclaim that was accorded to last year’s Kentucky Derby favorite. But in passing every test O’Neill has thrown at him in recent PHOTOS BY COADY PHOTOGRAPHY


After winning all five of his races last year – a championship season climaxed by his triumph in the $2 million Breeders’ Cup Juvenile at Keeneland – Nyquist is perfect in two races as a Derby-age 3-year-old this year. He notched a gritty victory over Exaggerator in his season debut in the one-turn seven-furlong San Vicente at Santa Anita. Then came a cross-country journey to Gulfstream Park to hand previously unbeaten favorite Mohaymen a defeat as Nyquist won the Florida Derby by 3 ¼ lengths under jockey Mario Gutierrez.

ied climates at this time of year. After a couple of days in his Keeneland barn, Nyquist has returned to training and looked good in doing so. Of the many admirable qualities displayed by Nyquist while he has extended his perfect racing record and lifted his career earnings to more than $3.3 million, the most compelling could be this: The horses Nyquist has beaten during his perfect run seem to run very well when he is no longer around.

Shortly after his Florida win, Nyquist shipped north to Keeneland, the site of last fall’s Breeders’ Cup success, to continue his Derby preparations for the owner-trainer-jockey team that won the Kentucky Derby and flirted with a Triple Crown with I’ll Have Another in 2012.

Take Exaggerator, the runner-up to Nyquist in the San Vicente who roared to a 6 ¼-length victory over the Bob Baffert-trained Mor Spirit in last week’s Santa Anita Derby. Exaggerator could have been helped by a wet track in that race, but the romp mainly enhanced his reputation and that of absent Nyquist, who has whipped Exaggerator in all three of their career meetings.

The only significant bump so far along the road to Louisville was a minor health scare upon his arrival in Lexington. A routine blood test revealed an elevated white cell count – a condition that is fairly common among horses as they travel through var-

The Dale Romans-trained Brody’s Cause, third to Nyquist in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile, is another who has fared best when Nyquist is not around. He was dull in his first race following a winter vacation but bounced back impressively last week with a victory in

Keeneland’s Toyota Blue Grass to return to a prominent start among major players in the Kentucky Derby 142 picture. Now let’s consider Swipe, who had the bad fortune to meet Nyquist four times last year and finish second in them all, the last of which was the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile. Slowed by injury over the winter, Swipe is set to return to racing Saturday in the Coolmore Lexington at Keeneland. He needs a win to guarantee a spot in the Derby starting gate. Swipe has just one win in seven races, but his last four losses have been runner-up finishes behind Nyquist. So ponder this before placing a wager on Saturday: Could you confidently wager against Swipe with a trip to the Derby on the line when Nyquist is not in the Keeneland starting gate? From a personal standpoint, I’ve been stubbornly slow to warm to Nyquist. Mohaymen topped my Derby Top 10 (kentuckyderby. com/wager/expert-picks) since late November. But the Florida Derby run by O’Neill’s colt made me a believer; although, I continue to have high regard for the likes of Gun Runner, Mor Spirit, Destin and Mohaymen.

The big show on Saturday is the $1 million Arkansas Derby at Oaklawn Park, the final 100-point stop on RTTKD trail. The Baffert-trained Brody’s Cause returned to Kentucky Cupid will be favored, but Derby 142 prominence with a victory in Keeneland’s Toyota Blue Grass. candidates to be late-qualifying Kentucky Derby hopes include Suddenbreakingnews, Whitmore, Creator or Unbridled Outlaw. For most of this year’s Derby hopefuls, the time from now until Derby falls on one of two distinct points: not nearly enough time or an eternity. A good number of this year’s contenders possess pedigrees, racing records and human connections that could lead them to a Derby victory, earning with the coveted mantle of roses a solid gold trophy and purse money. But there is little question that, with just over three weeks remaining until the biggest race of his life, Nyquist holds the advantage on his bid to a victory in Kentucky Derby 142 and to launch racing’s ultimate hat trick: the Triple Crown.

Demling still hosts “The Cardinal Insider” each week day from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. on 790 WKRD, and you can also hear him filling in during UofL football and basketball broadcasts. Do you miss not having a morning radio show? I miss not having a morning radio show, but I don’t miss having to get up in the morning if that makes sense. How big of an adjustment was that?

How good is V.J. King, and how much of an impact will he make next season? I thing V.J. King, on last year’s team, would probably have been maybe the second or third best player on the team. I think next year he’s got a chance to be the best player on the team. There’s going to be that freshman adjustment. In your opinion will Chinanu Onuaku be back? I think Nanu will come back so that will make him the best, but I do think V.J. has got a chance to be one of the best players on the team. He has a chance to be one of the best freshmen that we’ve seen in Rick Pitino’s tenure here at Louisville. The team this season was better than most people thought they would be, with Deng Adel, Donovan Mitchell and Ray Spalding improving, Onuaku and King potentially. Do you expect them to be better next season? I do, and people forget about Puerto Rico. These freshmen now are not just freshmen. They actually have an extra period there where they went through practices and those Puerto Rico games. So by the end of their freshmen year, they were technically, on their clock, already into their sophomore year. This class is more advanced than any class we’ve seen because of that trip. It came at the right time. With that said, they’ve got to make improvements in the off season, and I think that Deng, Ray and Donovan, they’ve got a work ethic that’s way up there as well.

J-Town Baseball Charges with Pride

Morley says he and Metry simply try to come up big for the team when they are depending on them in crucial moments, understanding the importance of reaching the goals they have now with this revamped culture. “Our goal when we started in the winter was to win 20 games this year like we did last year. We want to make it back to Jim Patterson because last year, we lost in the regional semi-finals to North Bullitt, and we want to try to make it to state this year.” Much of the success of the Chargers’ hot start is due to their pregame regimen. Before each game, the team will go to the left or right-field corner and pray together to get motivated and fired up for the game. Metry says, “It gives us time to give all praise to God because he is the reason we are all here. He gives us the privilege to be able to play baseball.” In response to the pregame regimen, Metry says he has noticed, “We look more relaxed as a team. We are all there for each other and make sure we have each other’s back.” Metry and Morley, who agree that they resemble Zach Greinke and Clayton Kershaw (both pitchers for the Los Angeles Dodgers in Major League Baseball) in their pitching, have not been elated simply by the team’s success on the field but also by the new atmosphere in the Charger dugout. Morley adds, “We start with, ‘Charge with pride.’ It helps us to be centered and focused on baseball.” VT V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M • A P R I L 1 4 , 2 0 1 6

The Final Chapter of the Seven Seas Carla Sue and Millie Lopez among the greenery in St. John’s, Antigua.

O

n the Regent Seven Seas Mariner, we sailed into Bridgetown, Barbados. It is hot but charming. George Washington slept here! He stayed in Barbados during his only foray outside colonial America. The house is in the Garrison Historic Area.

Barbadian and Caribbean paintings and engravings, and European decorative arts.

Partyline CARLA SUE BROECKER

Tourism is important to the island, but there’s a sophisticated business community and a stable government. Therefore, life here doesn’t skip a beat after guests return to the ship. Barbados retains a very British atmosphere; afternoon tea is a ritual, and cricket is the national sport. Beaches are picture perfect, and on the rugged east coast, the Atlantic Ocean attracts world-class surfers. The interior of the island is covered by acres of sugarcane and dotted with small villages. It is a duty-free port. There is a small museum in the former British Military Prison. It houses artifacts from the days of the Arawak (an indigenous people of the Caribbean from around 400 B.C.E.) and galleries that depict 19th-century military history and everyday life, 20th-century

The Barbados Wildlife Reserve is the habitat of herons, land turtles, screeching peacocks, shy deer, elusive green monkeys, brilliantly colored parrots (in a large walk-in aviary), snakes and caiman.

The 360-degreee view from Gun Hill, 700 feet above sea level, was what made this location of strategic importance to the 18th-century British Army. Using lanterns and semaphore, soldiers based there could communicate with their counterparts at The Garrison, on the south coast and at Granada Hill in the north. Harrison’s Cave is a limestone cavern, complete with stalagmites, stalactites, subterranean stems and a 40-foot waterfall. It is a rare find in the Caribbean. The next day we docked at St. John’s, Antigua with its 365 beaches protected by coral reefs. Antigua is a classic example of British architecture. Nelson’s Dockyard National Park was named after Horatio Nelson, who served there in the 1700s. It maintained 17 of the Royal Naval warships in colonial times.

The city has 80,000 in population, two cancer treatment centers, five institutes for the poor, Sunshine Homes for orphan girls, a boys training school, a large commercial soccer field and a cricket stadium named for star player Vivian Alexander Richards that holds 10,000. There is a pink church that was a birthday gift to the Pope. There are primary schools for students that start at age 3 and go to 11, then 12 to 15 for secondary. At 16 and 17, they go to college. They get free books, but there is a two percent education levy for the schools. They get free books and two uniforms. It was 92 degrees, so we skipped a Nelson Dockyards tour and sat in the shade with a Coke. Our second to last stop was in San Juan, Puerto Rico, U.S.A.! We hit the ground running on the blue tinged cobblestones, did last minute shopping and had a delicious sandwich in a cool local eatery. My friend Millie and I found the bead shop and the shoe and handbag shop. Then Brad said, “Back home,” meaning the ship. The following day, we were in the Bahamas at Nassau and decided not to fight the crowds of tourists from several other giant cruise ships docked beside us. And besides, we needed to start packing. The following day was a sea day, which was perfect for finishing packing and thinking back on the good times we have had on this 72 day journey. During that time, we had traveled over 20,000 miles, all the way around South America including up and down the Amazon River. We visited 48 ports in 18 different countries or protectorates. We stayed away from all mosquitoes, and nobody on the ship caught the Zika virus. In packing, we found we had thrown away enough old clothes that we had room for all the souvenirs that we could not do without.

EAR ABBY: I’m a 29-yearold self-made millionaire who has spent the last decade saving and investing my middle-class income. I grew up dirt poor, so at 18, I left home with $5, went straight to work and never looked back.

and then made her apologize.

Dear Abby JEANNE PHILLIPS

Recently, I’ve realized that I struggle to make friends for fear they’ll find out about my financial situation. Those who know only want to talk about money or treat me differently. Most of my peers are broke, and it makes me feel guilty. Those with high incomes blow their money on fancy dinners and luxury vehicles. I’m just a working-class woman who likes driving my 10-year-old car, and I don’t feel like I fit in with anyone. In fact, I’m developing an anxiety. A few months ago, I went to the bank to deposit a large sum of money and was mortified to see that the bank teller was a friend of the family. I have gone to the extreme of lying about owning homes and going on vacations, and it’s making me crazy. I even have issues with letting my young daughter’s friends come over for play dates for fear that the other moms will think our house is too nice. Do I need counseling or is this just a turning point in my life that I need to grasp? – MONEY WORRIES DEAR MONEY WORRIES: If someone has to have money worries, yours are the nicest kind to have. It would be interesting to know how many successful people share your feelings because I suspect that you are far from alone in experiencing them. A psychiatrist once told me that many of her successful patients feel like frauds despite their considerable accomplishments. A licensed mental health professional can help you to get past these feelings before they cause your daughter to be isolated, and I think the money would be well spent. P.S. If you feel your banking transactions are not being kept confidential, either change financial institutions or arrange for private banking, which is available for high-net-worth individuals. ••• DEAR ABBY: I am raising two of my grandchildren because their parents can’t take care of them. The kids are still learning acceptable behavior because they were never taught. I’ll give you an example of something that happens often: I was paying for an item at a store, and my granddaughter sneaked behind the counter and reached into the display case. Cupcakes were involved. The saleslady asked her to stop. I immediately got hold of my wayward offender, glued her to my side until I was finished

The problem was, the saleslady immediately said, “Oh, it’s OK.” I then had to ask the saleslady to please NOT tell my granddaughter that it was OK, but instead to accept my granddaughter’s apology because my granddaughter really would think it WAS OK. Your thoughts? – RAISING GRANDKIDS

DEAR RAISING: I think the salesperson was simply being polite and professional. Those children are lucky to have such a caring grandmother watching out for them. DEAR ABBY: Can you give me a complete list of etiquette rules for parents with divorced children? My daughter and her ex-husband are constantly battling over issues regarding their two children. Her ex is engaged, and his soon-to-be wife gives her opinion on everything to do with parenting the kids. This is causing a continuous battle, and it isn’t good for the children. – GRANDMA IN MINNESOTA DEAR GRANDMA: I will offer just one rule. Divorced parents should remember that above all, what’s most important is what’s best for the children and maintain consistency wherever possible between the households. ••• DEAR ABBY: I’m wondering if I have an issue or if what concerns me is fairly normal. I am 31 years old and have three daughters, two stepsons, an ex-wife and one current wife. I have been asked most of my adult life, as I’m sure most people have, “Where do you see yourself in five years? 10 years?” For some reason, I can’t figure out how to answer this question. There are many variables at play, and many lives would be affected by my pursuing what I want in five to 10 years. I can’t say I’m going to be “here doing this in five years” because I have no idea what might change. Do I need professional help? It upsets my wife when she wants to talk about the future. I can’t give her an answer. – CONFUSED ABOUT THE FUTURE DEAR CONFUSED: Some people use the question of “where will you be ...” as a method of setting goals. What your wife may really be asking is, “Are you satisfied with things as they are now, and if not, what changes do you intend to make?” If that’s the case, it might be illuminating to ask her what changes she would LIKE you to make. ••• Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

SPOTLIGHT

KMAC Couture

The Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft, or KMAC, began as an institution to celebrate and cultivate the rich tradition of crafts in the state. Going back as far as 1981, KMAC has displayed various exhibits featuring the full spectrum of art. One of the museum’s newest efforts to that end is KMAC Couture, an event dedicated to examining how materials, social interaction and labor can be transformed into relevant and meaningful art that permeates every facet of our lived experience. In other words, KMAC Couture is all about fashion. This week, we sat down with Emily Miles, communications manager at KMAC, to learn about this year’s event. How did KMAC Couture begin? KMAC Couture was created to provide a museum and runway platform for fashion and design expression in Louisville. Four years ago, KMAC staff and a group of devoted committee members started the runway experience with local artists and student participants from Alana Alford’s textiles class at duPont Manual High School. This initial relationship exemplified the importance of couture as a community-based artist and educational experience.

How has the event changed over time? KMAC Couture began in the museum in 2012 then moved to Main Street and then to NuLu last year. KMAC Couture 2016 will take place on the 700 block of Main Street in front of KMAC Museum. Thanks to generous support from presenting sponsor Brown-Forman, the event has seen enormous growth in capacity, both in number of artist participants and attendees. Artists have been featured from Louisville and around the country. To date, student artists have represented more than a dozen high schools and colleges; 2016 participants include duPont Manual, Sacred Heart, St. Francis, Louisville Collegiate, Ballard High School, Western KY, UofL and KyCAD. How does KMAC Couture benefit the community? The proceeds from KMAC Couture entirely fund museum education and outreach. KMAC’s mission is to connect people to art, and education is a very key part of that process. In 2015, the KMAC education department served 33,000 youth through free family activities, field trips at the museum and artist residencies in local schools. The museum saw more than 40,000 visitors and expanded programming around the city through its “KMAC in the Community” series. KMAC Couture is also a prime example of how community involvement makes for a vibrant museum. This year alone, nearly 200 artists, costumers, designers, students, models, stylists and volunteers contributed to KMAC Couture. We are grateful for the dedicated committee and staff, the enthusiasm from the artists and

A P R I L 1 4 , 2 0 1 6 • V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

42

volunteers, and the generosity of our sponsors, without whom this would not be possible. What can guests expect at this year’s exciting iteration, and what’s in store for the future? KMAC Couture 2016 will take place on Main Street on April 16, 2016. Talented and devoted committee members have worked tirelessly to ensure that the event is a success, with committee chair Theresa Carpenter Beames at the helm. Guests will enjoy a Korbel champagne bar and hors d’oeuvres from Doc’s Cantina. They’ll also see nearly 50 designs walk the runway and a special guest performance from Jecorey “1200” Arthur and Lance G. Newman. Next year will be the fifth KMAC Couture. We are already gearing up for exciting new changes and are expecting to see significant growth. KMAC Couture is a professional and educational experience for participating artists, and next year, it will be a complete, year-long program. KMAC Museum now offers professional development opportunities for local teachers, mentorship opportunities for all student artists and two fashion camps for varying ages. Is it too late to get tickets? How does one go about doing that? VIP Packages are sold out, but a limited number of general admission seats are still available on the KMAC Museum website. Visit KMACmuseum.org to purchase tickets. In addition to Couture, I hear that KMAC is renovating. What can you tell us about that? KMAC Museum is wrapping up an extensive nine-month $3 million renovation project that is scheduled to reopen early summer 2016. KMAC is working with New Yorkbased firm Christoff:Finio to renovate its historic Main Street location, adding public areas, streamlining exhibition space and creating greater capacity for education and events.

This verphotorealistic imagery to bennettduckworth.blogspot.com sion isn’t a musical, except when it decides to be one here and there. any artist’s imaginative desire. UnforI was also reminded of Disney’s 2000 film tunately, I’m gravely disappointed “Dinosaur” for sucking the majestic nature when all of this money, technology right out of its animal creations by giving some and effort are in the service of weak cinematic storytelling. Disney is busy doing a lot of great things lately, but I’m not happy with their continued mission to remake their timeless animated classic films into quasi-live-action, quasi-musical and quasi-entertaining special effects shows. In the case of the property of “The Jungle Book,” they already made a forgettable live-action version in the ’90s, but this time, the production is much more ambitious.

Quite often, the animation of the animals is so naturalistic that the application of human voices seems as awkward as dubbing over footage of real animals. Admittedly, Ben Kingsley is a natural fit with Bagheera the panther, and Idris Elba works well as Shere Khan the tiger. But then, there’s Bill Murray’s Baloo, the bear, whose realistically limited facial expressions don’t fit the voice. This problem is even worse with various supporting animal characters, one of which is voiced by the late Gary Shandling. While I haven’t read Rudyard Kipling’s original story collection, I’m willing to go out on a limb (or hang from a vine) and say that this movie doesn’t bring us any closer to his vision. Favreau strangely pays more tribute to Coppola’s “Apocalypse Now” when Mowgli visits King Louie (Christopher Walken), the giant ape, dwelling in the shadows of ancient ruins like Colonel Kurtz. I also hate to pick on a child’s performance, but Neel Stethi’s challenging task in playing Mowgli has rather emotionally limited results. Granted, the kid probably had to use his imagination really hard while taking part in an animated film in the disguise of a live action one, but he doesn’t bring a lot of range.

This is where I have to explore the varied quality of Jon Favreau’s directorial career. Simple as it was, I found a lot of charm in his brief departure from mega-budget filmmaking two years ago with “Chef.” Most folks also seem to love watching “Elf ” as a Christmastime classic, and “Iron Man” was a wonderful launch of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. On the other hand, “Iron Man 2” felt instantly stale, “Cowboys & Aliens” barely managed to pull off its daring concept and now, Favreau’s version of “The Jungle Book” is just…dull. The story follows the orphaned boy Mowgli, who was raised in an Indian jungle by wolves until it was decided that he must take a journey back to the world of humans and grow up among his people. He encounters dangerous animals and adventure along A P R I L 1 4 , 2 0 1 6 • V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

Favreau’s goofy direction, Marks’ weak screenwriting and Disney’s lavish production and ineffectual references to the animated version all seem to be in some kind of unintentional conflict made worse by an overbearing score by John Debney, which renders the movie’s dramatic rhythm monotonous. I can’t be certain if kids will enjoy this movie or not. There are engaging moments and a hypnotic look to the film, but it didn’t have the emotional power of “Life of Pi” or the charming comedy of the recent “Zootopia” – even though the movie feels like a mutant crossbreed between the two films.

The Magnum Opus of David Alan Harvey

A lawyer who dabbles in the decidecause people have long edly right-brain realms of corporate, realized their unique tax and estate law, Paletti is the last power to tell stories in an person you’d expect to feature the instant, photographs are seemwork of a celebrated photographer at his office. “I have a background ingly ubiquitous. They adverin photography,” reveals Paletti. “I tise our deepest desires and our Arts & have a bachelor of fine arts and most whimsical impulse buys. Entertainment master’s in photography, but I never Hundreds of thousands of them actually tried to make a living out of it.

This collection was so noteworthy that it Galleries bring photos and other forms of art together for people who seldom have the opportunity to see such things. In the case of Paul Paletti Gallery, their collection of rare photographs takes residence in, of all places, a law office. Founded in July 2001 by attorney and photography collector Paul Paletti, the gallery formed soon after the office building on Market Street was purchased by Paletti and his partners for their practice. Its debut to the Louisville community came to be with its participation in the second Photo Biennial, showing the photographs of Rolfe Horn. The gallery became one of the original participants in the First Friday Trolley Hop, a public event occurring on the first Friday of each month. P H OTO B Y C R Y S TA L L U D W I C K

piqued the interest of David Alan Harvey, whose work is so illustrious that he has been featured in National Geographic, won the Magazine Photographer of the Year award as well as earned highly coveted membership in the international photography collective Magnum Photos. Needless to say, Harvey’s work is quite the shot in the arm for Paletti’s fledgling but expansive collection. One of the lawyer’s assistants jokes that if you name a photographer, a photo of his or hers is probably in there somewhere. It’s a hyperbolic statement to be sure but one that proves to be understandable once any amount of time is spent in the gallery. My brief perusal afforded me the opportunity to see the art of Michael Kenna, Ruth Orkin, Anne Noggle, David Turnley and Steve McCurry. Amongst such giants, the work of Harvey seems hardly out of place.

45

Citing a background of reading literature and studying photojournalism, Harvey has a rare gift for combining wild creativity with precision and technique. His work is surreal and cinematic, limitless in its approach and scope. Most evidently displaying these traits are the photos that comprise his magnum opus, a photo book entitled “(based on a true story),” a veritable Rubik’s cube of color and emotion that can be read in any order by the reader despite having an intended chronological plot line and arc. The photos inside this work – named one of the best books of the year by The New Yorker in 2012 – are reminiscent of the work of such filmmakers as Terrence Malick, Sophia Coppola and David Lynch. “I always wanted to make sure that I had a strong voice, but at the same time, I was never worried about becoming predictable. All I wanted to do was tell a story with what was right in front of me. I never had a lot of interest in the American photographers of the time I was growing up. They always needed something. War photographers needed war, Ansel Adams needed the desert. I looked more toward the painters like the French impressionists and the Dutch masters. I wanted to be inspired by what was around me, not the other way around,” says Harvey. It certainly is a mindset that has served him well, and one can only guess where the muse behind the lens will take him next. VT The photographs of David Alan Harvey will be on display until June 27 at Paul Paletti Gallery, located in the law offices of Sturm, Paletti and Wilson at 713 E. Market St., 40202. Gallery hours are from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays, but you may also schedule an appointment by calling 502.589.9254. V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M • A P R I L 1 4 , 2 0 1 6

I do the Spotlight [theatre] camp. It’s really just fun. When I was 3 or 4, I came home after seeing a Spotlight performance and said I wanted to be on that stage. And so that’s what I did.

I did dance camp and cooking camp. I liked dance camp because I like dancing. I like tap and jazz. I met my friend Abby, and my best friend Delilah there. It’s just fun.

The news spread on a national level, and soon, individuals and organizations all over the country were setting up their own lemonade stands with proceeds going toward Alex’s cause. Alex passed away at only 8-years-old in 2004, but she lived to see her idea raise over $1 million in the fight against childhood cancer. A year later, Alex’s parents created Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation to continue their daughter’s work. The foundation has gone on to raise over $120 million, which has gone toward funding over 550 research projects, forming a travel program for families of children undergoing cancer treatment and creating resources everywhere for those affected by childhood cancer.

Originally located at Iroquois Manor, the store has moved a number of times, but the quality of the product has always stayed the same. Additionally, shopping at the store has become something of a tradition for some families. “We’ve been around so long that we’re hearing generational stories, which is wonderful,” Thelle relates. When asked about current trends, Thelle told me that gray nursery furniture is very popular right now, and manufacturers are responding to what newly expecting couples want. For the couples who are less knowledgeable and need help deciding how to decorate their new child’s room, the employees at Kiddie Kastle, many of whom are moms themselves, are always happy to offer advice. “Some girls come in here totally armed,” Thelle describes. “I mean, literally, a note-

Keeping It Comfy at The Comfy Cow

O

cho. I’ll be honest. I miss them. kay, I’m aware of how ridiculous it is to say Innovation and dedication are the paramount tenets of Comfy Cow and a something like this, but true testament to how great they can be. I’m going to be completely 100 Tim Koons-McGee and Barnett Edelen percent honest: I think ice cream – owner and vice president/director of is one of the greatest inventions marketing for The Comfy Cow respecTastes of mankind. Yes, that includes tively – were kind enough to take the time out of their busy schedules to meet such things as the wheel, the pulBEN with me and tell me what Comfy Cow is ley and penicillin.

It’s like it was “It was always in the freezer, so it was a designed to be experimented big part of my childhood. When my then partner, with, to be perfected. As winter slowly dies now husband Roy and I opened The Comfy Cow, and spring creeps back in, you know there’s we were looking to break away from the cold, metal only one thing you’ll crave as the tempera- surfaces of most ice cream shops and create something that was warm, inviting and nostalgic. We ture begins to rise: the delectable delights want people to be able to sit here, even if it’s two of The Comfy Cow. hours after they’ve finished their ice cream and be, well, comfy.”

The Comfy Cow opened its first store in 2009, and in the ensuing years, they’ve opened multiple locations (soon to be nine!), created specialty ice creams for a half-dozen acclaimed local restaurants, won countless “best of ” awards, garnered attention and acclaim on a national level and, most importantly, loaded my taste buds with unparalleled joy and happiness every time I’ve had the pleasure of eating it. Their house-made ice cream includes a variety of traditional flavors, but they aren’t afraid to challenge the palate with a panoply of featured flavors, some past hits including PB&J and JalepeaA P R I L 1 4 , 2 0 1 6 • V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

Edelen is relatively new to Comfy Cow, but that didn’t stop him from sharing the font of product knowledge he already has at his disposal with me. “I’m still working my way through all the flavors, but I think that they really are what set us apart. We do a lot of research to be the best, and we have all kinds of meetings to discuss the flavors,” informs Edelen. “We obviously sit in on them, but we also include the kitchen staff or anyone who happens to be around when we’re tasting,” he adds with a laugh. “We really feel like we are on the cutting edge of pushing the envelope on creating flavors based

on local seasonal ingredients whenever possible. We’ve also been incredibly mindful of creating an experience, a sense of community,” says Koons-McGee, chiming in. And now, the moment I’ve been waiting for: the tasting. I can’t help it. I’m a creature of habit. Subsequently, once I find something I like, I usually stick with it. That being said, I’m up for a little experimentation when the opportunity presents itself. And, boy, did it. Gearing up for Derby, The Comfy Cow has prepared a slew of festive treats such as Kentucky Bourbon Glazed Brownie, Blackberry

Mint Julep, Bourbon Ball, Secretariat – a white chocolate ice cream with real blueberry cobbler – among many others. Look out for Secretariat and Blackberry Mint Julep. They’re unique and dangerously delicious. “Another thing that sets us apart is that every ingredient in the ice cream is made in-house as well,” informs Koons-McGee proudly. That includes the brownies in the Kentucky Bourbon Glazed Brownie and the cobbler in Secretariat. “We even make our own waffles cones. I think we’re one of the few, maybe only, stores that does that,” says Edelen.

In addition to the Derby flavors, I happily took samples of their decadent, award-winning Brown Butter Peanut Brittle and the bold Curry Curry, and I have to say that, while neither was a flavor I would have ordered under normal circumstances, I was serendipitously pleased. Maybe it’s a call from the ice cream gods to take more chances? Regardless, I’m so glad I did, and I know exactly where I’m going to be when spring finally decides to come to Louisville.

PUZZLES

pets of the week 8-year-old Butters is a snuggle bug who is looking for a warm, comfortable lap. He promises to let you know just how happy he is if only you stroke his cheek and rub the back of his head. This lovely orange tabby cat enjoys catnapping in the warm sun, the occasional stalking of the cunningly dangled toy and time with his very own person. He’s neutered, micro-chipped and up-to-date on his vaccinations. Come meet him at the Kentucky Humane Society’s Main Campus, 241 Steedly Drive in Louisville. Cassius is a 3-year-old pit bull terrier mix. He is a very special boy. You see, Cassius is deaf, and that makes him a little nervous in new places and with new people. Cassius is startled by unexpected touch or movement since he can’t hear someone coming. This means he’d do best with children old enough to understand his hearing loss. It also means he’d do better without other dogs. He’s very smart and can learn hand signals. He’ll just need time and consistent training to help him gain confidence and be the big beautiful boy he was born to be. Cassius is neutered, micro-chipped and up-to-date on vaccinations. Come visit him today at the Kentucky Humane Society’s Main Campus, 241 Steedly Drive in Louisville.

For more on any of our adoptable pets, please call 502.366.3355 or visit kyhumane.org
