In this last year I have watched the movie posters that hung in the marquee frames by the entrance fade to colorless. It always made me sad… and worried. Would we get our beloved little movie theater back? Who would buy it? What if it got torn down? </span><p></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;">In </span><a href="http://maynardgrapevine.blogspot.com/2022/03/the-fine-arts-theatre-will-be-showing.html" style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;">March I told you </a><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;">that the theater has new owners who are going to keep running it as a theater, such great news! And they even had that Oscar Shorts event for two days in March where they invited the public to come in for free and watch all of the short films that were nominated for Oscars. During those events Les and Dafna took the time to introduce themselves and talk about their vision for the theater, often having to wait for the applause to settle down before they could speak again. </span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;">As Les and Dafna try to get a feel for the local movie appetite, be sure to show up when they’ve got something you like. Follow them on </span><a href="https://www.facebook.com/FineArtsTheatrePlace" style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;">Facebook</a><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"> and their </span><a href="https://www.facebook.com/FineArtsTheatrePlace" style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;">website</a><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;">to stay abreast of whatever they have going on. </span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;">And speaking of appetites, with the opening of the theater comes the opening of Theatre Creamery</span><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;">, the ice cream parlor next door. It will be good to have that as an option right in the downtown area again. </span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;">I drove by the theater the other day and was so happy to see new movie posters hung in the marquee. The grand opening kicked off yesterday, May 20th, with “Downton Abbey, a New Era”, “Everything Everywhere All at Once” (which seems to be getting more and more popular as people hear about how amazing it is), and “The Duke.” I hope you get a chance to see one of these movies this weekend in celebration of the work Dafna and Les have done and the investment they have made in our community. </span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large; white-space: pre-wrap;">Looking forward to seeing you all in and around the downtown!</span></p><span><div><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></div></span>Denishéhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11037037432524512726noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5993516016305659597.post-13351509426915460322022-03-21T13:22:00.002-07:002022-03-22T07:54:20.810-07:00The Fine Arts Theatre Will be Showing the Oscar Nominated Shorts, FREE, March 26 & 27<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEi4ltU3rduuPl_kW9NhPZVn6qA98JWJABIB3mGy-LIASvFy48HQH52R-gDCRMhuVnw97Lv2lSSg6iF_suaVb4TboKTk6_zK8FtzvS_rAycKx81QoN2DliD8mkmd1nJMlRZO3TwCBnqNjrRadp_Q7xM4i9T_e0GyENVo0bQ8L_PxRghLxr7Tm1QoTKO0=s1066" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><img border="0" data-original-height="468" data-original-width="1066" height="201" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEi4ltU3rduuPl_kW9NhPZVn6qA98JWJABIB3mGy-LIASvFy48HQH52R-gDCRMhuVnw97Lv2lSSg6iF_suaVb4TboKTk6_zK8FtzvS_rAycKx81QoN2DliD8mkmd1nJMlRZO3TwCBnqNjrRadp_Q7xM4i9T_e0GyENVo0bQ8L_PxRghLxr7Tm1QoTKO0=w461-h201" width="461" /></span></a></div><span style="font-size: medium;"><br />It's been one year since Steve Trumble's passing and the closing of the Fine Arts Theatre. In the last year many in the community feared that it would never open again. So it was with great excitement that last month the purchase of the theater by Dafna Krouk-Gordon and Les Gordon was announced. And if you've been wondering about the reopening of the ice cream parlor next door, they bought that, too! </span><p></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Dafna runs a non-profit, <a href="https://www.tillinc.org/">Toward Independent Living and Learning,</a> that offers day programs, housing, vocational training, and more to people with disabilities. One of Dafna's and Les's hopes is to use the theater and creamery for vocational training. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">The Fine Arts won't officially be open until later in the year, with the creamery hopefully opening in April, but they have been anxious to start the celebrating in Maynard. They're having a <b>Grand "Pre-Opening"</b> by offering the community the chance to see the <b>Oscar Nominated Shorts</b>, and they're doing it at <i>no charge!</i> That's right, admission is <b>free</b>, but you do need to have tickets for seating since the theaters will be at a somewhat limited capacity. There is a 4-ticket limit per person. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">The screenings of the shorts will be on: <br /><b>Saturday, March 26th, 7pm<br /></b><b>Sunday, March 27th, 3pm</b></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><u>The creamery will open for this special event</u> one hour before the start times.

That’s where my hats are born and where I make my mixed-media collages. I’m feeling a little lost without ArtSpace; a place where I could go on a daily basis to pour out my creativity, and gather with fellow artists. It’s where we would exchange ideas, offer critiques, and provide encouragement to each other</span></span><span style="font-family: Barlow; white-space: pre-wrap;">.</span></span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Barlow; font-size: medium;"></span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Barlow; font-size: medium;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjT9yJnzdvn7HHIna0xevBhZLDUILGwt3Q1StAMJCV9WKGc692BBgMckjNwdnOH3_NrVJ4OOyb0Qkyg0o09w4r8OFK5S5e4upaKjPznNkSWvbBgSzT67Ys7OVsK0bTlPTtt9_JPm7kTmh2UVI9WD2GVKAsyQdDwvvRj57_G9oYvzkrB_-eesLNKN9ZJ=s2016" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1512" data-original-width="2016" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjT9yJnzdvn7HHIna0xevBhZLDUILGwt3Q1StAMJCV9WKGc692BBgMckjNwdnOH3_NrVJ4OOyb0Qkyg0o09w4r8OFK5S5e4upaKjPznNkSWvbBgSzT67Ys7OVsK0bTlPTtt9_JPm7kTmh2UVI9WD2GVKAsyQdDwvvRj57_G9oYvzkrB_-eesLNKN9ZJ=w284-h213" width="284" /></a></span></span></div><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Barlow; font-size: medium;"><br />Over the years, ArtSpace has worked ever harder to create a more vibrant space to welcome and inspire people from Maynard and the surrounding areas. In 2020 and 2021 some work done on our building revealed safety concerns and consequently half of the building needed to be closed to use. My studio was one of the ones affected. I am just one of the nearly two thirds of our artists who have been displaced. </span></span><p></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Barlow; font-size: medium;">I have met so many people in Maynard through my various interests, but none have brought me as much of a sense of community as ArtSpace has. I joined in 2004–it's hard to believe that it’s been eighteen years. Little kids that tried on hats with me when they were in preschool are now off at college! Through the years, my studio at ArtSpace has given me more of a connection to Maynard. It gave me a place where I could welcome people, where we could talk, laugh, and share. We’d chat about the town, artmaking, the other artists; really whatever people were interested in. </span></span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Barlow; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-size: medium;"></span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgVeR-w2sntRxDze-jbLj7RZ3eTVNoZidzAIpdKLBfN-VwwBMOqfZb1Bh1tGlfSidijkZFSrlvDcdYrc0ZDF_yyVyj0kCJw3_a-ECDo3X-c6ap-gJARxBrMGnkaPoRWCZKcAXYVpxSDIzxAh1hKTdMDv7R_QUZ3WrV10SwKflaSRzbFSi2NuSXu2lkq=s4032" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="155" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgVeR-w2sntRxDze-jbLj7RZ3eTVNoZidzAIpdKLBfN-VwwBMOqfZb1Bh1tGlfSidijkZFSrlvDcdYrc0ZDF_yyVyj0kCJw3_a-ECDo3X-c6ap-gJARxBrMGnkaPoRWCZKcAXYVpxSDIzxAh1hKTdMDv7R_QUZ3WrV10SwKflaSRzbFSi2NuSXu2lkq=w207-h155" width="207" /></a><span style="font-size: medium;"></span></div><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Barlow;">As the years passed, whenever ArtSpace would be hosting community events, like Open Studios or the Holiday Sale, I always struggled about whether to be in my studio putting hats on people (which I really love to do, I might add) or welcoming people to this special place. The struggle was because, as much as I love putting my hats on people, I really love to share the community of ArtSpace–I love to take people through the building and introduce them to the amazing artists we have here. I love to talk about what I know about our various artists and share insights I’ve learned about their art. I love the shy curiosity new visitors bring, and I love even more having them leave with connection, understanding, and a deeper appreciation for the varied processes of making art.</span> </span></p><p></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Barlow; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-size: medium;"></span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgctvoWRjTkZOexBlvCeECPKMZpvxr-9PVPP_QdGSiRMMKD0az_WKnGGzfBUby9MtOq9mGu4SNCX5OjbWrVtwDw16dNy6S-apfhie-vEDctd6FHf88_9oq0lvTzErPIczEAEOWyTKtresVRzoykeuEDR0xcHtgDzLJ94Rt1clVAi21-RCwP8h97aWSI=s4032" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="182" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgctvoWRjTkZOexBlvCeECPKMZpvxr-9PVPP_QdGSiRMMKD0az_WKnGGzfBUby9MtOq9mGu4SNCX5OjbWrVtwDw16dNy6S-apfhie-vEDctd6FHf88_9oq0lvTzErPIczEAEOWyTKtresVRzoykeuEDR0xcHtgDzLJ94Rt1clVAi21-RCwP8h97aWSI=w137-h182" width="137" /></a><span style="font-size: medium;"></span></div><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Barlow;">My hope is that all the artists will be back in the studio soon and that we’ll be opening our doors to the community again, but it seems more likely that it won’t be till the summer. Our Board of Directors is being very thoughtful about hiring the right people and listening to all the experts to get us through this whole difficult process. So while I really long to be there making my hats, I’m confident that when we come out of this we’re going to be in much better shape than we have ever been.</span> </span><span style="font-family: Barlow; font-size: large;">One of the most important things we need is to have the town renew our lease.

Now it's all about getting dressed! </span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: medium; white-space: pre-wrap;">The clothing spectrum from frilly “feminine,” to gender neutral, and mostly “masculine” is available right here in Maynard. We've got some lovely and cool shops where you can get clothing, and we're so lucky to have them here. </span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><span style="font-size: medium; white-space: pre-wrap;">I wish we had a greater representation in sizes. Maybe one of you reading this would like to open that shop. And given how many families we have here, it’s a pity that we don’t have a kids consignment shop. </span></span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-d6a4e3dd-7fff-9187-0e3e-aa631924f851"><p style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: left;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><b><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: medium;">“Feminine” clothing: </span></b></span></p><p style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><u style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Raspberry Beret:</u><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"> Always keeping up with the latest fashion trends, they can help you put together some amazing and original looks. Want to dip a toe into another decade? This is also your place. </span><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Their shoe and boot selection is pretty impressive, with dressy high heels and classy boots. Rachel is usually carrying name brand or designer labels, so expect quality items. Here they have sequins and frills and beautiful basics, but they also have some fairly gender neutral clothing, too. Personally I like to grab and espresso from across the street and check out the outfits they've put together for the window. </span></span></span><span style="font-family: trebuchet; white-space: pre-wrap;">An added bonus of buying from Raspberry Beret is that, by buying second-hand apparel, you’re giving great clothes a second life, and maybe someone on your Holiday shopping list cares about that, too. </span></span></p><p style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: left;"><br /></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"></p><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: right;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizlTIzOFp_R_AnK8wiY9EBZwzi07L44nXZRUPxZFOac99fF5D9dqPxONU9cigXDhRqLHnrs49f7jv_IAE9DUbRAZipnhdU2o9E6L6otuy9AoxiV00sB4FssdD1qr-xf6Jd-3VIH-RxR-8/s1245/Women%2527s+Outdoor+store.JPG" style="clear: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1245" data-original-width="934" height="217" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizlTIzOFp_R_AnK8wiY9EBZwzi07L44nXZRUPxZFOac99fF5D9dqPxONU9cigXDhRqLHnrs49f7jv_IAE9DUbRAZipnhdU2o9E6L6otuy9AoxiV00sB4FssdD1qr-xf6Jd-3VIH-RxR-8/w163-h217/Women%2527s+Outdoor+store.JPG" width="163" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">The Outdoor Store</td></tr></tbody></table></span><p style="text-align: left;"><span><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: medium;"><u style="white-space: pre-wrap;">The Outdoor Store:</u><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"> That main entrance is going to trick you into thinking that it’s all masculine shirts and sporting goods, but you’d be so wrong to believe that.

Nick and Kelli are very creative, so go to them with your special treasure and see what they come up with. Things you might want to frame: collector’s cards, a special piece of embroidery, a sentimental object, a child’s creative work. I’ve been thinking of having my mother-in-law’s ballet shoes framed in a shadow box with a picture of her fourteen-year-old self in the background. I also have a photo of my grandfather when he served in the Portuguese army and a little soldier from the nativity they used to put together in the old country. </span></span></p><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><br /><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; font-weight: 700; white-space: pre-wrap;">Holiday Decor</span> <span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 700; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">and Holiday Needs</span></span><p></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Will you be making a local visit and don't want to go empty handed?

I’ve been really busy building my Maynard Holiday Shopping Guide, but it's not quite done yet. This will be the first of several posts, so I hope you don’t mind checking the blog from time to time to see how I'm managing. </span><p></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-e602f6fd-7fff-d6b9-fb21-2c8b38c0346c"><span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium;"><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This year, with shortages of goods and unreliable delivery schedules, you might understandably be feeling a little more-than-usual holiday anxiety creeping up on you. My friend, Lynda Thayer, wandered around downtown with me and we talked with store owners and shopkeepers about supply chain problems. One of the great benefits about shopping locally is that if you have it in your hand then you can get it wrapped and under your tree or in the hands of a loved one in time for whatever you’re celebrating. </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><br /></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">One of the things I love about doing my Maynard Holiday Shopping Guide is that, as I think about all the different people we have in Maynard, I end up peeking into corners that I wouldn't usually see, or stepping into stores I don't usually frequent. I’m always surprised by just how much we have here, and you probably will be, too. But because there is so much, the blog post has gotten a little unwieldy and I’ve decided to try a different approach. Over the next few weeks I’ll be doing posts by “category.” I think that this will be the best way to give you the most information in the easiest way to digest without overwhelming you. So check back in from time to time to see what I’ve put together. </span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Here are the general categories that I will be working with, though they may change a bit as I work my way through my ideas.

And the reason I didn’t tell you that he had cancer is because, way back when he told me, he asked me not to tell anyone. </span><p></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-ff62f7a9-7fff-9469-6f83-8df54cfd0e1e"><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-top: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">I kept my word. After he died, many asked what had happened, and still wanting to keep his confidence, I really didn’t say anything. But I’m saying something now, and the reason I’m saying it is because I think there’s some real value in having people know.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-top: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">I found out about the cancer very early on when we were meeting for lunch in town so that I could introduce him to as many locals as possible. I was recovering from a cold and when he offered me a handshake, I turned him down. I explained why and he thanked me and said he had to be careful with his health. After we had been talking for a bit, he told me about the cancer and asked me not to say anything. When I asked him why he didn’t want people to know he said something like it wasn’t how he wanted people to see him; it wasn’t how he wanted to define himself. So I kept it to myself. </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-top: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Over the years we would occasionally get together for dinner. He knew of my own mobility and health issues and would always ask how I was doing. And I would ask how his treatments were going. We’d give each other a little pep talk, mostly him encouraging me, and then we’d get down to more important issues--the theater, things happening around town, ideas I had, things he was going to be doing. It was great. We both talked so much that we were each jockeying to get our thoughts out, often having to stop because the restaurant we were in was closing. </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-top: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Why am I sharing this now? Well, with the possibility of new buyers closing on a purchase of the theater (hopefully more about that soon), I’ve thought a lot about Steve. I’ve thought about how nobody knew that even from the very beginning of owning the Fine Arts Theatre, Steve knew he had cancer--he knew he had cancer and he did it anyway. His disease was progressing, and still he decided to open Theatre Creamery. He did it because it delighted him to bring his childhood theater back from the abyss and make it a place for our own community. I knew this every time I saw him, and I loved him for it. I thought you should be able to do that, too. </span></p><div><br /><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></div></span>Denishéhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11037037432524512726noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5993516016305659597.post-36851260027994590022021-10-07T13:22:00.000-07:002021-10-07T13:22:59.077-07:00MaynardFest 2021--a Roaring Success!<p><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjf-f0_FYMgLZCgOmj8F29cV7bKfYWiKtAzT5HNn0hvDBhnCRsaQYfay-vjLEyc6wBPBBHGpP3kltmxcg5KSOU06zMU8x1_GkpRHjeTJGRi_WFSnkC1j9jQ5SqP7zrRFVANNyqTqajeiGA/s512/attachment+%25281%2529.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="384" data-original-width="512" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjf-f0_FYMgLZCgOmj8F29cV7bKfYWiKtAzT5HNn0hvDBhnCRsaQYfay-vjLEyc6wBPBBHGpP3kltmxcg5KSOU06zMU8x1_GkpRHjeTJGRi_WFSnkC1j9jQ5SqP7zrRFVANNyqTqajeiGA/w320-h240/attachment+%25281%2529.jpeg" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Photo courtesy of Linda Thayer</td></tr></tbody></table>The weather was absolutely perfect for MaynardFest this year. Between that and our inability to get together last year, I think everyone who showed up downtown was feeling an abundance of joy.</p><p>I had taken a break from posting because without being able to connect with people--without community--I really struggled. But lately there have been many pockets of goodness for me to want to write about more recently: the securing of a location in Maynard for the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AssabetCoopMarket">Food Co-op</a>, all the outdoor dining, the new and varied trees installed by the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/maynard.treecorps.3">Maynard TreeCorps</a>, the new mural supported by the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/DowntownMaynard">Maynard Cultural District</a>, Eriksons (because Eriksons!), <a href="https://www.facebook.com/maynard150th">The Maynard Sesquicentennial</a> events (including that wonderful parade and the fireworks display sponsored by Green Star Herbals), the possibility of a purchase of the Fine Arts Theatre, and so many more. All of these have been such food for the soul after the COVID-ful 2020 the world experienced (and continues to experience). But for true celebratory community feel for me, MaynardFest took the cake!</p><p>As usual, the Chamber of Commerce did a great job pulling together vendors. I heard of only one complaint about a balloon vendor that I'm sure will get handled, but other than that, it just seemed like everyone was having a wonderful time.</p><p>My family started with breakfast at the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Bostonbeanhouse">Boston Bean</a>. I have some mobility issues, so after eating, I had to decide if I had the energy to walk the Fest. Once we stepped out, we couldn't help but join the flow of people moving down Main and Nason Streets; it was just too much fun to resist. My twelve-year-old said something like, "I love MaynardFest because I can recognize all the people I've met over the years and don't get to see very often." So true. You'd have thought she was an adult because she marveled at how much kids with whom she had gone to preschool had grown. It was even better when she observed, "We can't go ten feet without talking to people! Make that four feet!" I know from talking to others that we certainly weren't the only ones having that experience.</p><p>We loved being out there with all of you. If you didn't make it, I'm so sorry we missed you. Let's hope for an equally delightful MaynardFest 2022!</p>Denishéhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11037037432524512726noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5993516016305659597.post-8756741050859144752021-03-04T12:40:00.001-08:002021-03-04T13:08:20.496-08:00Maynard is Mourning the Loss of Steve Trumble, Fine Arts Theatre's Hero<p><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcDOuDMsab6K0Fe7czyfJqxKzgzm47BcHLlvfvSPflUuc-sdYNLHE2NPrkLtMsLJ-7TH_ZTpIIRmze8avDWMF04NffErGCulrnLrvn9D_eoh_DV_z0E_-wob18yGkJC29KHm5QreFtauA/s320/Screenshot+2021-03-03+at+1.33.52+PM.png" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="314" data-original-width="320" height="196" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcDOuDMsab6K0Fe7czyfJqxKzgzm47BcHLlvfvSPflUuc-sdYNLHE2NPrkLtMsLJ-7TH_ZTpIIRmze8avDWMF04NffErGCulrnLrvn9D_eoh_DV_z0E_-wob18yGkJC29KHm5QreFtauA/w200-h196/Screenshot+2021-03-03+at+1.33.52+PM.png" width="200" /></a></div><b>This is a lengthy post. The last two paragraphs have information on how to be part of a mini memorial for Steve.</b><p><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">I considered Steve Trumble a friend. So when I heard of his passing I was deeply saddened. He was a businessman with a heart, who cared about the Maynard community and could see its potential. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">The first time I met Steve was when a group of concerned citizens wanted to meet with him to see if we could support him as he worked to renovate the theater. The building’s needs and technology upgrades were more than he had planned for. He was hoping to have a Kickstarter to help get the theater digital projectors. I wanted him to be successful in Maynard, so I was honest with him. I said, “You can’t come in here wearing that fancy suit and asking Maynard’s citizens to give you money.” He looked a little taken aback and moved on to the next subject. Every now and then he would stop, look at me, and say, “You really don’t like my suit?” When the meeting was done he approached me and said, “I like you. I like your honesty. Here’s my card and my number.”</span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-6e31080c-7fff-d9c6-1bef-a1b46c61319c"><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In the months that followed, as he began trying to repair the disaster that had been the Fine Arts Theater, I met him in town a couple of times and had lunch with him. My goal was to help him to get to know Maynard by having him be present in our downtown and by introducing him to as many people as possible. </span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">When the theater was coming along, he invited me to go in and see all the work he was doing. I remember how he told me that he didn’t really like the large paintings in the main theater. I told him that he couldn’t get rid of them--that they were iconic. Later, I was delighted when I learned that he had all the paintings restored. </span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">He was so proud of all the attention to detail that he put into the place. He loved the<a href="http://maynardgrapevine.blogspot.com/2014/11/you-want-to-fine-arts-theatre-is.html"> iridescent tiles he had chosen for the concession/ticket area</a> and the red counter tops (I think red must have been his favorite color). He had carefully chosen the carpeting, which was reminiscent of art deco motifs. He made sure I noticed the light hanging in the big display area (closer to where the Creamery now is). It always reminds me of a reel of film unwinding. He showed off the chevron-patterned bathrooms that were <a href="http://maynardgrapevine.blogspot.com/2014/10/you-used-to-hit-your-knees-at-fine-arts.html">expanded to actually allow a person to close the stall door</a> without having to climb onto a toilet. He always said that he knew <a href="http://maynardgrapevine.blogspot.com/2014/10/fine-arts-theatre-update-steve-trumble.html">he’d never make back what he put into it</a>, but he loved knowing that he had made something really good here in our small town. </span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmGKESuUICWGhLCyK25whW9PFuJ917ipNGyBoaP5QQmGFwgy0Y3mjz2K7wn1ShOOnhAc04BDHSq6rJ-P3TlEioAsFL05ZtGvLUE0mDh1r3FTzwO4Yx9oQqYWaCplJFFMwM-I4iPKA0tpQ/s1406/Screenshot+2021-03-04+at+2.32.29+PM.png" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="426" data-original-width="1406" height="64" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmGKESuUICWGhLCyK25whW9PFuJ917ipNGyBoaP5QQmGFwgy0Y3mjz2K7wn1ShOOnhAc04BDHSq6rJ-P3TlEioAsFL05ZtGvLUE0mDh1r3FTzwO4Yx9oQqYWaCplJFFMwM-I4iPKA0tpQ/w200-h64/Screenshot+2021-03-04+at+2.32.29+PM.png" width="200" /></a></div>Steve loved action movies and blockbuster hits, but when a group of Maynard residents approached him and told him that they thought the community might like something else, he listened. He began bringing in more family-oriented films and fewer action movies. From those meetings a <a href="http://maynardgrapevine.blogspot.com/2015/04/are-you-interested-in-starting-movie.html">group of movie lovers</a> emerged and called themselves the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/FansofFilmatFineArtsTheatreMaynard">Fans of Film at Fine Arts Theatre</a>, and he supported their ideas. They wanted to take a couple of days out of each month to showcase Classic, Foreign, Documentary, Indie, and Art films. It proved to be successful and worthy of his support, and he never hesitated in thanking them for helping him move the theater in a direction that would bring the community in. </span><p></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTatlb85rFj8z3jpLo4WKAsy-fZVDT2EAizmuVEoW_lXzFys5l-RANHcPvm7rJ0k9WfDtpVnx_M_SEJ6qAiyh5llIY6wphYQ7_oPxFbps3T0Dh5UJsPL58aqphyphenhyphentEvijxu3mnKsIoxDNU/s1428/Screenshot+2021-03-04+at+2.14.33+PM.png" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1058" data-original-width="1428" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTatlb85rFj8z3jpLo4WKAsy-fZVDT2EAizmuVEoW_lXzFys5l-RANHcPvm7rJ0k9WfDtpVnx_M_SEJ6qAiyh5llIY6wphYQ7_oPxFbps3T0Dh5UJsPL58aqphyphenhyphentEvijxu3mnKsIoxDNU/s320/Screenshot+2021-03-04+at+2.14.33+PM.png" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Last year he opened Theatre Creamery, a longtime dream of his. My family happened to catch him on a day that they were in there starting to get decorations up. Resisting the urge to approach or hug him, I had to satisfy myself with just taking a picture of him. Unfortunately, I caught him just when he blinked. He loved the idea of families coming in for a movie and then being able to go get a sweet treat right afterward.</span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTociTjstdaTL1Pkk81XibGC-RtspzmT8g6v5qxnrruf_lw6xAnnEm7sMSCj7fnwNvQ-jS4Ufia1b_eUJWPEKAdo7OfYShLNdeYUXn8IwHGSbkDyCDiwPGasWK1DsF7LKiyNBsD9Jj3lg/s820/Screen+shot+2021-03-04+at+1.42.56+PM.png" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="820" data-original-width="618" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTociTjstdaTL1Pkk81XibGC-RtspzmT8g6v5qxnrruf_lw6xAnnEm7sMSCj7fnwNvQ-jS4Ufia1b_eUJWPEKAdo7OfYShLNdeYUXn8IwHGSbkDyCDiwPGasWK1DsF7LKiyNBsD9Jj3lg/s320/Screen+shot+2021-03-04+at+1.42.56+PM.png" /></a></div>Steve was a willing supporter of local causes. Some years back, <a href="http://6bridges.gallery/">6 Bridges Gallery</a> was having an artistically-painted-chairs auction to help raise money for Maynard's public schools' arts program. I was involved in that and had an idea to raise more money by replacing the storytelling throne of Maynard children’s librarian, Mr. Marc. I asked Steve if he would be willing to match any donations that I could get from the public for the “purchasing” of the chair. Of course he said yes. It was a great success. When you can get back into the library (after COVID regulations are lifted), if you go to the children’s room and look at the chair, you’ll see that it has a little metal placard thanking Steve for his contribution.<div><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Things Steve loved: Shaking hands firmly with people, calling everyone “hon.” He loved anything Coca-Cola (especially the good kind made with real sugar, which you can find at the Creamery), sports cars, white wine with a glass of ice on the side. He loved having annual Christmas parties for all of his employees, and he loved telling them what a good job they were doing. He was thrilled to welcome people to the theater, was a very generous tipper at restaurants, and loved to talk. (I love talking to people, too, so our conversations were often a bit of a wrestling match to see who could get their ideas out.) </span><div><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">When the theater was in the process of trying to open, I sent a coloring page of the building's facade to as many people in town as possible. Adults and kids colored them and slid them under the door at the theater.

<i>See update at the end of the blog post.</i><br />
<br />
Did you know Bill Ewing? Maybe you didn't know him by name. If you're new to town these last two years, you wouldn't really have had the chance because his health began to decline and he wasn't getting around so much.<br />
<br />
I liked to call him "Old Bill"--it seemed like a good nickname for a town fixture. Not that long ago, before he got so sick, he used to love to walk around town. You'd have known him for his worn out Boston Red Sox cap, his baggy jeans, and his heavy, persistent walk, a little bent in the knees.<br />
<br />
Bill loved the idea of being a crotchety old man, but could never pull it off--you always knew he was teasing or pulling your leg. He loved to laugh, and laughed loudly, and when he'd joke with you, his big smile would open broadly to reveal the gap between his front teeth. Like my dad, he had an eye that could look in another direction. He had a lot of character and was a character.<br />
<br />
I'm not sure how long Bill lived in Maynard. I know he wasn't born here. I feel like he told me he came from somewhere closer to Boston. Was it Waltham? But he was here long enough to remember when the downtown was bustling, the Mill was full of Digital employees, and all the surrounding towns claimed Maynard as their hangout place.<br />
<br />
I met Bill at the Boston Bean House. My family would go there on a Saturday for breakfast and we'd chat with him from our nearby table. Our daughter was a toddler then, and she used to peek at him from the edge of the opposite side of his table. He loved that. And as she grew, though he could never remember her name, and though he had begun to forget mine, he would talk about how little she used to be when she was peeking at him. But he had nicknames for us. He called me "the Crazy Hat Lady," and my husband "That Quiet Guy Who Never Smiles" (which always made Richard smile.).<br />
<br />
Bill loved to tease me about my hats. I didn't mind--I knew he was doing it to be playful. One year at ArtSpace's Open Studios, I invited him to come and see my space. He had never been to the building in it's current use. While he was there, I was able to convince him to take off his old baseball cap and let me snap a picture of him in one of my fedora's. He obliged, and I'm grateful to have the picture to share with all of you.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhN1Qv9fpx6NA1v2K3mPF0aGkU3ciu6GZg4HnKpcXGP4fT_BKXD7EwSCyF0jnn7qPkO4KuvWXNDfYoKSa91eqLX4b3H1-CL9QMP-0L3AslepfQQin1iBMToJxTJ-3Nmm9DHjp398p3Xfmw/s1600/Bill+Ewing+shoveling.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="278" data-original-width="235" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhN1Qv9fpx6NA1v2K3mPF0aGkU3ciu6GZg4HnKpcXGP4fT_BKXD7EwSCyF0jnn7qPkO4KuvWXNDfYoKSa91eqLX4b3H1-CL9QMP-0L3AslepfQQin1iBMToJxTJ-3Nmm9DHjp398p3Xfmw/s1600/Bill+Ewing+shoveling.png" /></a>Bill was probably nearing ninety, and some six-or-so years ago I remember him telling me about going around and helping "the old people" shovel the snow out of their driveways. A couple of years ago, when the Boston Bean House was a little backed up with food orders, Bill walked to the back, grabbed the snow shovel, and went out to the front steps to help clear the snow that kept accumulating. I thought it spoke so much about who he is that I had to grab a picture.<br />
<br />
On Valentine's Day, he used to order a dozen long stemmed red roses to be delivered to his favorite businesses in town. I would always see them prominently on display on the refrigerator case at the Bean, with the little card signed the way he signed all his cards, and which confused me the first time I got a card from him, "Love, Bill and Bernie." I learned that Bernie was his wife, and that she had died years before. Still, he couldn't sign his name without including hers.<br />
<br />
When his health and memory began failing him, his son Brian made sure he got to the Bean, and it was his son who emailed me today to let me know that his dad had passed away this morning. He was a lovely man, and my heart is sad knowing that he is gone.<br />
<br />
Given all that is happening in the world right now, all the social distancing measures, I'm guessing that having a wake and funeral will be hard. How do we make up for that? How do we tell Brian how much we liked his dad and how very sorry we are?<br />

These days we're surrounded with the stress of the Corona virus, but even as all that unfolds, life goes on and spring will come. I figured I'd break you out of that gloomy place by reminding you of good people and daffodils.<br />
<br />
Do you all know David Mark? He's one of them local do-gooders, he really is. You'll often see his tall, young-for-his-age figure walking into the downtown, cap on his head, goatee, glasses. You'd know him if you saw him.<br />
<br />
He was one of the early volunteers working to establish the Rail Trail through Maynard. I remember years ago when he went out with other volunteers to begin clearing and marking stretches of the areas--putting down wood chips and moving granite curbs--long before the trails became what they are today.<br />
<br />
I also heard that after the rail trail was complete, that David took it upon himself to put in trash barrels on the section by the Cumberland Farms and another by the footbridge. He even takes care of removing that trash himself. Yup, he's getting rid of all those little baggies of dog poop and other debris that he'd prefer to keep off the trail. He saw something that needed doing and he did it. It's kind of the way he is.<br />

I met David when he and his wife, Jeanne, moved to the area from New Jersey and joined the Maynard Community Gardeners. From that social circle I could get glimpses of the various projects he was involved with. If you're ever in the area of Maple and Brooks streets, you'll see some small garden areas (not Maplebrook Park, though he has helped a lot there, too) that he established, and more importantly, maintains. He has planted hundreds of tulips in that area in honor of his son, Daniel, and every spring they beautify that little corner of our small town.<br />
<br />
So, it didn't surprise me when I heard back in 2018, that he wanted to create a trail of flowers to run along the Rail Trail. That fall he bought bulbs with some small donations, and headed out on a couple of fall days with volunteers that he gathered, and they proceeded to plant the first stretch of blooms by the site of the old Marble Farm. In May of 2019, that area delighted the eyes with a thousand bright daffodils. In 2019 he gathered more volunteers and donations, this time planting 2,000 bulbs between Maynard and Acton.<br />

Ever the ambitious community volunteer, David has started fundraising for the next plantings, hoping to double what was planted last year. If you like the idea of beautiful stretches of spring blooms, you can help<i> and </i>get something in return--you can stop into the Outdoor Store, Boston Bean House, or Sugar Snap and buy an "Only in Maynard" mug for $10--all profits will go to the Trail of Flowers. If you're not able to get to these establishments, David can make them available for purchase from his back porch.<br />
<br />
<br />
Whatever the case, if you see David Mark around town, give him a little wave and a thumbs up. It's really easy to miss all the local citizens who are doing that little bit extra to make this town so special, so if you see something, let me know.<br />

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The holidays are just a few short days in December, with so many days of preparation. People have such mixed feelings about all the celebrations. During this time of year, as winter begins to settle in, what we all seem to lack--what we long for--is connection. In Maynard it’s fairly easy to be connected--we have this amazing little downtown where we can run into each other or just be recognized (and waved to) from across Nason Street. </span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; line-height: 1.38; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; line-height: 1.38; white-space: pre-wrap;">Here you can learn the name of the person behind the counter of the store you’re visiting, and the next time you go in it will likely be the same person. In a small town like ours, it’s easy to care about each other because it actually matters. Our local businesses decide that it’s important to support charities, activities, and events that are important to the community, and we, in turn support them. It’s a symbiotic relationship in a dense space that results in a sense of caring that is palpable. I’ve lived here twenty-two years, and it just keeps getting better.

Over the years, my family has been watching the careful expansion of Maynard's Mexican restaurant, <a href="https://elhuipil.com/" target="_blank">El Huipil</a> (pronounced "we-peel"). We always respected how owners, Alma and Alonzo, took smart, cautious steps, feeling the market out to make sure their next moves were the right moves.<br />
<br />
Some months ago I had heard that they were thinking about taking the empty restaurant space on Main Street that's adjacent to <a href="https://www.facebook.com/El-Huipil-Mexican-Restaurant-108563996484897/" target="_blank">El Huipil</a>. I thought to myself, <i>These two are thoughtful business people. What are they bringing to Maynard?</i> And then I waited in anticipation.<br />
<br />
In the time that I've lived in Maynard the site has been a successful, long-lived bakery and at least four different restaurants. The last business that had been there was The Brook Kitchen and Tap. I remember wanting all of the restaurants to succeed, but there was always something odd or awkward about the space and it was always too loud. Competing TVs and music at The Halfway Cafe and The Brook made it difficult to hold a conversation without yelling. There was nothing particularly memorable about the food.<br />
<br />
A couple of months ago I ran into Tim Hess (our local architect at <a href="https://www.studioinsitu.com/" target="_blank">Studio InSitu</a>) and he confirmed rumors for me: a menu that would be offering <i>tapas</i> (spanish-style small plates), a cocktail bar, a live music space, and even a small space for dancing. He told me that his company designed the restaurant, from concept, to interior design, lighting design, fabric choices, paint colors, and on and on. I knew that if he was on it, it was going to have style.<br />

On Friday I ran into Tim at Serendipity Cafe and he offered to give me a sneak peek at Azúcar (sugar). I leaped at the chance. You guys, <i>it's really great!</i> They have taken this awkward, loud space and created lovely intimate spaces, and so, so stylish! This is a very grown up kind of restaurant, so though I'm sure kids would be welcome, if you have any, start lining up the babysitters—this is a special treat for adults!<br />
<br />
At El Huipil, the sense is that you're always in a <i>fiesta</i>. The bright colors and decorations make it feel as though a party could start at any time. Azúcar is different—there's a romantic moodiness to the lighting and the seating arrangements. I can't quite put my finger on why, but I get the sense of a bygone era.<br />
<br />
It seems that a lot of attention went into making this place feel special, so let me try to describe some of the spaces. I don't actually know what each area is called, so I'll just name them as best I can.<br />
<br />
<i>The stage and dance floor: S</i>mall and velvet curtained, it has the magical feel of a person-scaled puppet theater. The plan is to have live music three nights a week. On those nights the lovely tiled area in front of the stage will be cleared of tables and chairs to open the dance floor. There is a leather-upholstered "Hollywood banquette" (a wide, curved table with surrounding seating) that provides an excellent view of the stage.<br />
<br />
<i>The window lounge: </i>This area probably seats about 12 (I'm guessing from memory). It has large, high-backed, plush, velour-upholstered banquettes and small tables. The ability to close drapes to this space means you can soften noise or close it off for a more-private party.<br />
<br />
<i>The bar: </i>It's long and has big, heavy mirrors. When the bottles show up, it's going to sparkle. At the far end is a large piece of artwork made up of aluminum and recycled bottle caps-—very cool!<br />
<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">An ornate mirror in the Dining Room.</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<i>The main dining room: </i>This is an internal space that is a little shielded from the stage area by a wall. Cutouts let some light and music through from the front. Above the tables, decorating the back wall, are an array of musical instruments.<br />
<br />
<i>The rum room:</i> This is the most intimate of the spaces, and probably my favorite. It has a smaller bar of its own, and I think they'll be serving specialty rums here. The walls are covered with a wallpaper of large-print tropical plants. There are some cigar boxes on display on one wall, but don't worry, nobody will be smoking in here.<br />
<br />
There is no justice in my descriptions or any photos I took. You'll just have to pay attention for an opening date and head down to Azúcar and see for yourself.<br />
<br />
<i>Update: Since my post on August 12, 2019, Alma and Alonzo decided that they wanted to make the restaurant an age-restricted restaurant to people over sixteen. Maybe this will change in the future, or maybe it won't. It does feel very grown up and romantic in there, which I think many adults enjoy, and I know from the many conversations I've had that a lot of people are pleased to have a kid-free (of theirs or other's kids) night out with a spouse. </i><br />

Maybe you don't know them and are wondering why I would dedicate a whole blog post to a family who was moving away. I mean, people move, right? What's the big deal? But this family was special in the way that they embraced the community. They seemed to embody the whole big feeling that I have about this place.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjc898Wio8m6ZfqM18mUe2OecpdLnl021FQsUXnJyzRGr7UfFVHSZisDA4ARbB5xqwCHiGoic-g_aoz99K_3KBMhMS7Hw3-RrG9yGPyfueXQcX7Lgz39yfgyoaeZ5tB-VNJBGWsPDFbtfU/s1600/Screen+shot+2019-08-02+at+9.41.16+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="705" data-original-width="435" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjc898Wio8m6ZfqM18mUe2OecpdLnl021FQsUXnJyzRGr7UfFVHSZisDA4ARbB5xqwCHiGoic-g_aoz99K_3KBMhMS7Hw3-RrG9yGPyfueXQcX7Lgz39yfgyoaeZ5tB-VNJBGWsPDFbtfU/s320/Screen+shot+2019-08-02+at+9.41.16+PM.png" width="196" /></a>I met Val and Brent at a mini Open Studios in ArtSpace Maynard back in 2015. I did what I always do when I meet new people in the area—I asked where they live. They told me that they had recently moved to our small town and were really excited to be here. I'm always curious, so I asked what brought them specifically to Maynard—I've been here so long that it's good to get a fresh perspective on our town. They talked about needing to move to this area and about how their realtor drove them around to all the local towns. They both talked about passing through Maynard, looking at each other, and both articulating that this was it—this was the place. That they just knew it. I think they stayed in my studio for more than an hour that day, just talking about the local community and how they were getting their footing in this new place.<br />
<br />
In the three years that they lived here, the family was quick to get involved. From government, to family matters, to the arts—there was so much to be involved in and they just jumped right in. I was amazed. At some point, after they had been here maybe two years, I asked how much of their love of the town was really just about how they embraced it. My thought was that maybe they would have found home wherever they were because that's who they are. They both insisted that this wasn't the case, and that what we have here in Maynard is something special.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
Fast forward to late spring 2018 when they told their Maynard friends that they needed to move back to the Carolinas for work. There was sadness in the community they had built for themselves. Even they struggled with going though there were so many positives to the move. I, for one, tried to make the best of it. Brent and I talked about how they'd move back s<i>omeday</i>, how maybe it wouldn't be so long, how maybe they could vacation here. But the sadness was still there. I felt a need to blog about it, but every time I tried I struggled over what I would even say.<br />
<br />
After they moved, I told Brent that I wanted to do a blog post about their family and what it means to be part of this community, and how hard it can be to leave. He approved. I kept putting it off, and putting it off. I'm glad I did. After one year away, they decided to move back. They had a lovely house in the south. They had family nearby. There was the job. Still, they wanted to be back here with all of us, and I am so glad for it.<br />
<br />
The connections we make to each other are foundations that support us and make us feel like we belong here. Communities are built by people, one at a time—that's you and me.<br />
<br />
Welcome back home, Mathisons!<br />

For a long time I assumed he was homeless, but didn't want to ask. It turns out that he is, but he doesn't really ever ask of anything from his fellow Maynard citizens. He's a proud guy, and is just as likely to offer something to you if you offer something to him. I did once give him a dollar because he told me that he likes to get a cup of coffee from McDonald's when they open up in the morning. And I thought about that, how for one dollar he could get a cup of coffee and start his day in a heated place for a while without worrying that he's staying too long. <div>

<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; line-height: 20.24px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Wow, it’s the 10th of December, almost the 11th—I feel like I’m barely getting in under the wire for holiday shopping. Still, I did it, and we’ll just call this my little gift to you—I’m here to help you figure out what to give and make it so that you don’t have to leave “home”! The list is long, but hopefully worth your time.
In <a href="https://maynardgrapevine.blogspot.com/2018/12/2018-holiday-shopping-list-part-ii.html" target="_blank">Part II</a> of this post are the photos I took as I walked around Maynard and some photos taken for me by Holly B. (who has more patience for photography than I have. Thanks Holly!)
