Identification of the Dancers in Photos Attached to Recent Tidbit

To my recent Tidbit (see below) I attached photos of the two dancers but I did not specify who was who because I did not then know.  Since then I have learned who was who -- the young woman in the blue dress is Sarah Olson and the one in lavendar is Nani Yim.  See the attachements on this email which spell this out.  Sorry for any problems this may have caused you.

 

Sincerely,

 

Forrest

Newnan Spring Tour of Homes Announced By Historical Society

 

     Since Newnan is rightly known as The City of Homes, it is not surprising that for some time now one of the highlights of every year in Newnan has been the Spring Tour of Homes conducted by the Newnan-Coweta Historical Society.  Details on this tour are provided below by Society member Shelley Laurin:

 

Spring Tour Homes Shows Changing Tastes, Lifestyles

 

On Saturday, April 19th, from 10 am to 6 pm, the Newnan Coweta Historical Society will hold its annual Spring Tour of Homes, starting with Larry Anderson's and Michael Boulas' showplace at 141 Greenville Street, and continuing with four more historic properties in Moreland, Ga., eight miles south of Newnan along Route 29S.

 

Although many of the original features of these homes have been preserved, tour docents will point out how they have been modified to suit changing tastes in architecture over the years, or expnded to meet growing needs for space and function.  Some of these changes are mentioned in the photo captions below.

 

North-Young-Anderson Home

141 Greenville Street

Newnan, GA

 

This beautiful home was built as a one-and-a-half story residence in the prosperous boom times tha Newnan enjoyed with the rest of the South in the decade preceding the War Between the States.  It was originally built as a Greek Revival cottage, and was "Victorianized" by Dr. Abraham North, a Confederate army surgeon in the 1880's.

 

In 1918, the home was restored to its original Greek Revival style, with the addition of a full second floor, columns, and a porte-cochere.  The current owners, Larry Anderson and Michael Boulas, have added a charming guest house, garage, and pool.

 

Cureton-Winkley Home

75 Church Street

Moreland, GA

 

This Eastlake Victorian cottage was built in 1889 by Elisha Cureton.  It features a wraparound porch with columns and a bay-windowed foyer.  Originally, it had two square rooms with shared fireplaces on either side of a wide central hall, plus a kitchen and porch at the back of the house. 

 

 Dwight "Rooster" Winkley has done extensive work in the house.  He has remodeled the kitchen, rebuilt the staircase and converted the former attic into a master suite with balcony and bath, sewing nook, children's play area, and two more bedrooms with shared bath.

 

Caswell-Faulkner-Collins Home

33 Brannon Street

Moreland, GA

 

This Victorian gabled cottage with wraparound porch tucked away at the end of Brannon Street was constructed around 1910.  It features a central hallway plan with two large, bright, square rooms on each side.  A kitchen, bath, and sunporch are at the rear.

 

The house has four fireplaces with original mantles, two sets of pocketdoors, and may Eastlake details, including spindlework and door moldings with sunburst corner blocks.  Dormers were added recently to create a second floor bedroom accessed by a spiral staircase.  A charming three-tiered fountain anchors the circular driveway.

 

Camp-McBrier-Laurin/Rudy Home

86 Victoria Drive

Moreland, GA

 

Built in 1882 by E. N. Camp, this Victorian gabled, one-and-a-half story clapboard cottage has a classic GreekRevival interior, with four square rooms opening off either side of a central hallway and six-over-six windows.  The house has twelve foot ceilings and four working fireplaces.

 

The McBriers, who lived in the house for many years, added a large, sunny living room, a bedroom, bath, and screened porch to the rear, as well as brick walkways and a curved brick patio.

 

McBrier-Schilling-Bowers Home

757 Bethlehem church Road

Moreland, GA

 

Originally built as a small farm house on 200 acres by the McBrier family a century ago, this charming prairie-style homeplace was purchased by Edward Schilling in the early 90's.  Mr. Schilling completed most of the remodeling and additions, selling the house to Dale and Sam Bowers in 2000.  Five years later, fire destroyed the top.  the Bowers' partially rebuilt and remodeled the house again with the help of designer Christi Estes, who created a beautiful master suite on the second floor.  The sitting area and office were featured in the February issue of Southern Living Storage and Organizing, and the master bath will appear in the June issue of Southern Living.

 

Tickets for the tour are $15 each and will be available for sale at The Male Academy Museum, at Scott's Bookstore on the Court Square, and at H. J. Wings & things at Summer Grove.  On the day of the tour, tickets may also be acquired at the Historical Society's tent on the Court Square and at the Camp-McBrier-Laurin/Rudy house.

 

For additional details, call the Male Academy at 770-251-0207, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, from 10 am to 3 pm, or leave a message.

 

(Photo of Mr. Redwine will be emailed to you by Pamela Prange)

 

Tom Redwine Appointed Administrator by Newnan Coweta Historical Society

 

The Newnan Coweta historical Society has announced the appointment of Thomas E. Redwine, SR., as administrator of The Male Academy Museum, which is located on the corner of College Street and Temple Avenue in Newnan.

 

Redwine has been a member of NCHS for four years, and was voted to the Board of Directors in 2007.  A native of the Atlanta metropolitan area, he has lived in Newnan for a little over 12 years.  His personal ancestory in the Coweta County area dates back to 1798-1826), when his great-great grandfather's brother Lewis lived on the old Redwine Plantation just north of Roscoe.

 

Also, his great grandfather was a captain in the Confederate Army (10th Georgia Infantry Regiment) Fayette Rifle Greys.  Redwine partiipates in Living History Re-enactments of The Was Between the States, and has an active interest in genealogy.  He is also a model railroader who collects railroad memorabilia.

 

The NCHS welcomes new members and volunteers, and invites all those interested to attend upcoming functions at the Train Depot as well as the April 19th Spring Tour of Homes.  The Depot is available to the public for rental for special events.

 

Spring Tour tickets are available from The Male Academy (Visa and Mastercard are accepted), Scott's Bookstore, and H. J.

[Coweta Arts Tidbits] NCAA April Artist on Month is Cecil Cornwell

Cecil Cornwell Named NCAA Artist of Month for April

 

    

Cecil Cornwell Named Newnan-Coweta Art Association's City Hall's Artist of the Month for APRIL

Cornwell's works of art are being displayed at Newnan City Hall for the month of April.

Cecil Cornwell has had a life long interest in art, going back to his early childhood in the State of Virginia . Growing up in a rural section of Henrico County naturally led to drawing and painting of natural scenery as well as wild life. Cecil enrolled in a water color class at a local museum at about nine years of age and he took oil painting classes in high school. His interest in wood carving began to develop during these early years of painting also. During college at Samford University in Birmingham , Alabama , he studied art for one semester.

For most of his life Cornwelll did oil paintings. However in recent years he has expanded his activities to acrylic and water colors, and he has done a lot of fish carving in wood, with a concentration in exactness of features and colors. Many of his painting ideas come from photographs which he take on vacation trips. Water scenes and mountains often command much of his interest. Wood carving, using bass wood, has emerged as a keen interest.

Cornwell strives for authenticity and accuracy in his fish carving. "I want to do a piece that appears to be able to swim if placed in the fish's water environment." Some of his fish carvings are fresh water species, such as bass, bream, crappie, trout and walleye, while others are salt water species from the ocean. Every carving is unique and one of a kind. Most are so real that people frequently mistake them for real fish.

Cornwell is now retired after working with Georgia Baptist Children's Home for thirty years. He spends considerable time enjoying carving and painting, as well as fishing and spending time with his grandchildren. Seldom does a day pass that he does not venture into his basement studio and pick up a brush or a carving tool. He believes that everyone can create something of beauty for the generations that follow. While few can ever approach the work of Rembrandt or Michelangelo, perhaps one can at least come close to Grandma Moses.

Cornwell is a member of the Newnan-Coweta Art Association. NCAA meets the third Thursday each month (from September through May) at the Harriet Alexander Art Center on Hospital Road at 7:00 p.m. Visitors and new members are welcome. An art demonstration is presented each month. Come and join the fun.

[Coweta Arts Tidbits] Wadsworth Concert Updated Info Released

Wadsworth Concert Updated Info Released

 

     By now anyone knowledgeable of the Coweta scene knows that the traditional Wadsworth Concert is being held in March this year, instead of February.  The following updated information has just been released by Gina Lau Snider, Public Information Officer of the City of Newnan:

 

 

2008 CHARLES WADSWORTH CONCERT

 

On March 29 at 7:30 PM, world-renowned pianist Charles Wadsworth will host a spectacular concert celebrating the much-anticipated completion of the Charles Wadsworth Auditorium Restoration Project.

 

Since its original completion in 1939, Newnan's Art Deco style Municipal Auditorium has seen many years of constant use by the community. It has always been a place of special memories for local audiences. On its stage hometown folks appeared in plays, graduations. recitials, concerts, Junior League Follies, special ceremonies, and much more. Some of those memories have been inscribed in the graffiti that can still be seen on the back stage brick walls ... and with a respect for history, will not be covered with paint. 

 

Recognizing the importance of preserving the heritage of such an historic part of Newnan, the Auditorium Restoration Project was begun in 1993

 

Restoration of the auditorium itself has been completed and returned to its original Art Deco beauty. Refinished and reupholstered seats have also been re-installed. They now sit in the darkened and sleeping auditorium … soon to be released from their protective wrapping and occupied by a new audience. At the present time the stage area has been completely walled off to protect the auditorium from the work being completed on and behind the stage area. A new, high, stage ceiling has already been finished. A completely new modernized steel rigging system is being made and will soon be installed. Following that, new stage curtains will be hung, and the lighting system will be installed.

 

Soon the auditorium will awake … ready for its grand reopening. 

 

Renamed The Charles Wadsworth Auditorium in 1998, the auditorium will be the site of the March 29th "A Preservation Celebration" which will welcome back local son and internationally acclaimed pianist Charles Wadsworth. Throughout the restoration committee's spearheading efforts to restore and enhance the acoustically superior auditorium, Wadsworth and other artists have participated in annual concerts to raise funds for the project. He'll return to his hometown with a stunning presentation of musical artists. Patrons and sponsors of the event will also attend a special post-concert reception. All are invited to be in attendance at this historic reopening and this grand concert by Charles Wadsworth and Friends.

 

WADSWORTH CONCERT BRINGS MASTER CLASSES TO STUDENTS

 

A new and exciting facet has been added to the Charles Wadsworth and Friends Concert on Saturday, March 29^th. Two of the musicians performing in the concert will arrive a day earlier in order to conduct Master Classes for Coweta County high school and middle school string and clarinet students.

 

Violinest Chee-Yun and clarinetist Jose Franch-Ballester, both accomplished and world-class musicians, will conduct the Master Classes at The Centre for Performing and Visual Arts on Friday, March 28. The Master Classes are free-of-charge to the students. The Newnan Rotary Club will sponsor one of the Master Classes, and BB&T and Cargill will co-sponsored the second class.

 

"A Master Class is a class given to students of a particular discipline by an expert of that discipline—usually music, but also painting, drama, dance, or any of the arts. In a Master Class, a teacher's general comments are replaced by the far more personal, intimate, informed, and individualized instructions and comments of a practiced professional in that talent or skill."

 

Newnan High School's Band Director John Erdogan said, "Student participation in Master Classes can hone students' skills and challenge them.  Encountering musicians who play on this level can benefit students greatly by helping them develop basic techniques, reading literature, tone production... and just from the opportunity to be exposed to a developed talent who has succeeded artistically and professionally. Someone who actually does this professionally can certainly benefit students.  Lots of things can come from these Master Classes." Erdogan added, ""We are also so fortunate to have local citizens who not only appreciate Wadsworth and support his annual concert here, but also appreciate the musical arts enough to financially support a Master Class like this for our students."

 

 Dr. Lyn Schenbeck, Director, Centre Strings (high school) orchestra (also 6th-8th Strings, Smokey Road Middle school ) commented, "This opportunity for our students and the Centre Strings ensemble to be a part of a Master Class can be a life-altering experience. To have the opportunity to learn from someone like violinist Chee-Yun is very exciting; our students will benefit in every way. A big thank you to Newnan Rotary and to BB&T and Cargill for making this happen."

 

Tickets for "A Preservation Celebration" Charles Wadsworth and Friends Concert are available at Scott's Book Store on the Newnan Courthouse Square, Morgan's Jewelers at Ashley Park, and The Bank of Coweta - Thomas Crossroads branch. General Admission tickets are $20. Student and Senior (65+) tickets are $15.

Eunice Nichols is named Newnan-Coweta Art Association's Artist of the Month for the month of March 2008. 

 

Recently she has become CERTIFIED in a "new art" of pen and ink with oil rouging.  Having applied for an art scholarship and much to her surprise won it from the Society of Decorative Art, which was used towards her intensive study in Buffalo , New York last May.

She continues to paint other items such as gourds, wood pieces, slate, tin and canvas.

 

She has taken oil classes from Helen Hayes of Newnan, (a young 92 ½ years old) and does her decorative art work on her own.  She attends as many seminars and conventions as time allows,.

 

Eunice has won many ribbons for her oil artwork as well as for her decorative art.  She displays at the Annual Spring NCAA Show around the old courthouse square in Newnan, which this year will be held on Saturday, April 19, 10 a.m. – 6:30 p.m..  She also displays at the Annual Christmas Market show held at the Old Depot.  She has had several art pieces in the SCAVA Traveling Show in the past few years.  One of the main display areas here in Newnan is the Espresso Lane where about every eight weeks this display is changed out, and many of our members show their beautiful work.  Be sure to stop by and see it, the present display has 62 pieces and a great showing!  Enjoy some delicious coffee and, while there while enjoying the art display as well. 

 

Eunice and Ray have lived in Newnan for about 14 years, coming from Chicago , Illinois .

They have two sons, Dan and Dave, who are both married and have four beautiful granddaughters.

 

Eunice says, "I have made many friendships here in Georgia , through the art associations and our church.  I find the more people work together as "team workers" and trust that is what they are doing is worthy, makes the world a better place."

 

Eunice is presently the President of the most active art association in the Southern part of Georgia . Eunice is also a member and current President of the Newnan-Coweta Art Association.
