  • Painter Travis Tarbox Hotaling— Visions of birds at the Brewery

    Travis Tarbox Hotaling worked in his studio on a painting of a heron for his upcoming show “Birding is Hard,” which will open at the Yellow Springs Brewery on Nov. 25, with a reception on Saturday, Nov. 28, from 3–5 p.m. His oversized paintings are a nod to the “involved and elusive” practice of birding while portraying the complex and fascinating personalities of his subjects.

    The idea of an exhibit entirely of bird paintings came up by chance, said Travis Tarbox Hotaling, a painter and Yellow Springs resident.

  • YSHS ‘Food Exposition’— Presenting food for thought

    Yellow Springs High School ninth graders shared information they learned from a 15-week multi-disciplinary study titled “Food for Thought” during a community Food Exposition on Friday evening, Nov. 20, in the high school gym. Among the 15 interactive booths focusing on questions and issues related to food production and consumption was a display of plants growing in aeroponic towers. Students learned in their biology class how food can be grown even in a small space without soil. (photo by Carol Simmons)

    The Yellow Springs High School gym was buzzing with excited energy Friday evening as hundreds of people turned out when the ninth-grade class presented the school’s first community Food Exposition.

  • Art & Soul’s holiday fair fare

    Normally when one retires from organizing a popular artist studio tour, organizing another art fair isn’t the first task one might hope to undertake. But in the case of Yellow Springs resident Lisa Goldberg, the promotion of art is something “intimately tied to her being.”
