performed live with an orchestra, choir, and 600 children! Now The Lightyears’ keyboard player, Chris Russell, has written a novel called Mockstars. Although a work of fiction, music fans will no doubt recognize the characters who flit through its pages. The book has already been acclaimed by UK Critics; Alex Marsh described it as “Hilarious! It’s Bill Byson meets Spinal Tap!” The book, and a new album, will appear in the US this Fall. The Lightyears will take a break from playing major venues on their current American tour to play an intimate, semi-acoustic show at the tiny Jamey’s House of Music in Philadelphia on Friday August 16, when Chris Russell will also read excerpts from his new book.
Brooke will bring this poignant and humorous one-woman musical play to Philadelphia as part of Philly Fringe Fest 2013. My Mother Has Four Noses is based on Brooke’s care of her mother during her mother’s final two years battling Alzheimer’s disease. Of her late mother, Brooke said, “She was a character. She was a published poet, a Christian Scientist, a clown, and always up for drama. Almost daily she would say, ‘Boolie (my nickname), that’s good! Are you getting this down? We should make a play out of it!’ I did get it down, and I did write a play. It is my songs, her poems and our stories enmeshed. It is a

Company at 1718 Chestnut Street in Philadelphia to launch the music donation program. In collaboration with Musicopia, the Mann is asking guests at this concert to bring used (or new) instruments that will support Musicopia’s Gift of Music program where instruments are refreshed or repaired, and placed in schools with students who are eager to play but cannot afford an instrument. This year, Musicopia has reached an all-time high by collecting over 600 instruments. Denise Kinney, executive director of Musicopia, is most appreciative of this effort to build support for the Instrument Drive and said, “I’m really excited to be working with the Mann. Their rich tradition of community engagement, particularly with the region’s youth, is well known. There is an excellent synergy between our two organizations,” she said enthusiastically. “In addition, Jacobs Music Company has been a great community partner. They are drop-off locations for donated instruments at all of their stores.” In advance of the concert, instruments can be dropped at Jacobs Music Company at 1718 Chestnut Street in exchange for undercover ticket vouchers for the Van Cliburn Tribute Concert. Two tickets will be given to the first 50 people who make instrument donations. The late American pianist Van Cliburn had a long and cherished relationship with Philadelphia audiences and the city’s renowned orchestra. At this concert, Vadym Kholodenko, the Gold Medalist of the Fourteenth Van Cliburn International Piano Competition, will not only perform with The Philadelphia Orchestra as part of his grand prize, he will also perform on the Steinway concert grand piano that was part of Van Cliburn’s piano collection. Audiences will thrill to one of the great Romantic piano concertos and orchestral music beloved by Mr. Cliburn as Cristian Macelaru leads The Philadelphia Orchestra in this special concert.

he exhibition Starting from Scratch: The Art of Etching from DĂźrer to Dine showcases some of the Museumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s finest etchings and includes major acquisitions and masterworks, many on display at the Museum for the first time. The exhibition spans five centuries and features prints by major artists â&#x20AC;&#x201C; from Rembrandt and Goya to Brice Marden and Kara Walker â&#x20AC;&#x201C; that illustrate the many ways artists have embraced this medium to create original and inventive work. The development of etching is traced from its first use in metal workshops in fifteenth-century Germany to its application by contemporary American artists. Multimedia and interactive ele-

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mary Cassatt at the Louvre: The Paintings Gallery,â&#x20AC;? 1879â&#x20AC;&#x2018;80. Hilaireâ&#x20AC;&#x2018;Germainâ&#x20AC;&#x2018;Edgar Degas, French, 1834â&#x20AC;&#x2018;1917. Etching, softâ&#x20AC;&#x2018;ground etching, aquatint, and drypoint, Plate: 11 7/8 x 4 15/16 inches (30.2 x 12.5 cm) Sheet: 14 3/16 x 8 3/16 inches (36 x 20.8 cm). Philadelphia Museum of Art ments demonstrate the characteristics of various etching techniques and offer insight into the artistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s process. Six works by Rembrandt showcase the innovations he brought to the use of the technique, and include Christ Crucified between Two Thieves (The Three Crosses) (1653â&#x20AC;&#x201C;55), an important recent acquisition by the Museum. The great French artist Jacques Callot, a seminal figure in the history of etching, is represented by The Siege of Breda (1627), a grand battle map and landscape that is on view at the Museum for the first time. Rare first edition prints from Giovanni Battista Piranesiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s portfolio Imaginary Prisons (about 1749) illustrate the effects of combining several techniques to create haunting images of mysterious architecture. Other virtuoso displays of technique are presented in Francisco Goyaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s series The Proverbs (Los Proverbios) (1819â&#x20AC;&#x201C;23), which showcases his revolutionary use of aquatint in imagery that ranges from whimsical to satirical. A series of dark expressionistic images of World War I by Otto Dix exploits the corrosive qualities of the medium to communicate violence and decay. Etchings by James Abbott McNeill Whistler and Camille Pissarro demonstrate subtle qualities of light and atmosphere. A sense of nineteenth-century Parisian life is captured in prints by Edgar Degas and Mary Cassatt, who shared a mutual interest in experimental etching. Works on display include Degasâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Mary Cassatt at the Louvre: The Paintings Gallery (1879â&#x20AC;&#x201C;80), an etching that he continually reworked and reprinted, creating more than twenty variations of the image. Noted artists have often used etching to explore variations on a theme. Featured in the exhibition are four prints from Picassoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Vollard Suite (1930â&#x20AC;&#x201C;37), in which the artist repeatedly explores themes of attraction and voyeurism through allegories of the mythological Minotaur, the artistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s alter ego. John Marinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s multiple abstract studies of New Yorkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Woolworth Building from 1913 show his fascination with what was at the time the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tallest building. Several versions of the famous skyscraper are on view from the Museumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mas-

THE LIGHTYEARS PERFORM AUGUST 16 Continued from front page
“Each track on the new album reflects a chapter in the book,” explained tour manager, Jonathan Clifton, “In the sixties, bands produced ‘concept albums’ with a unifying theme linking the tracks. The Lightyears have taken it to the next level. They’ve produced an album that is the soundtrack to a novel. I don’t think anyone’s ever done that before.” For Lightyears’ fans, seeing the band up close at a Philadelphia premier event, and the promised opportunity to meet and chat with them afterwards, has made this show a hot item this summer. Jamey’s House of Music is located at 5841 Overbrook Avenue, adjacent to St. Joseph’s University. To grab your tickets go to: www.jameyshouseofmusic.com. SAY YOU SAW IT IN CITY SUBURBAN NEWS

EDUCATION NEWS A CCOMPLISHED C HEF F RANCINE M ARZ TO L EAD MCCC C ULINARY A RTS I NSTITUTE ertified Executive Chef (CEC) Francine Marz joins Montgomery County Community College (MCCC) as the new director of its Culinary Arts Institute, which will officially open in late August in Towamencin Town Square. Chef Marz has an impressive resume of professional accolades, including a medal from the Food & Hotel China (FHC) culinary competition in Shanghai, China. She served as a board member of the American Culinary Federation (ACF) in Phoenix, AZ, and has held multiple sous chef, banquet chef and executive chef positions with Marriott and Renaissance Hotels, among other elite establishments. She has also taught many cooking classes at Le Creuset and Williams Sonoma, and has been featured on several radio and television segments in various parts of the country. With more than 15 years of industry experience, Chef Marz claims to “do a little bit of everything” in culinary and pastry arts, which has enabled her to combine her two passions – food and travel – into a successful and diverse career. “Foods are very regional, and the best way to see the country is to cook your way through it,” shared Marz, noting that she has traveled to and/or cooked in every region of the United States, learning how to prepare regional cuisines from the people who make them everyday. “I can bring my experiences from all these places to my students.” Her passion for sharing her knowledge has led Chef Marz to MCCC, where her leadership will be instrumental in launching the new Culinary Arts Institute. Certified Executive Chef Francine Marz joins “I strive to be the instructor/director I wish I had. All of my decisions go Montgomery County Community College as back to ‘how does this affect or influence students?’ That’s the priority,” the new director of its Culinary Arts Institute. she said. Marz holds her students to high standards. In return, they can expect a lively learning environment that blends culinary lessons with culturally-relevant music and media. They may even get some comedy—a throwback to the six months Chef Marz spent learning and performing stand-up comedy while she was in culinary school. Prior to arriving at MCCC, Marz was the Academic Department Director of Culinary Programs at the Art Institute of Phoenix, where she realigned curriculum with industry stands and introduced a new Hospitality, Food and Beverage degree program. She also taught a variety of culinary lab and lecture courses, as well as, coached multiple International and regional student culinary competition teams. Marz attended Johnson & Wales University in Charleston, S.C., earning Associate in Applied Science (A.A.S.) degrees in both Culinary Arts and Baking and Pastry Arts, and a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degree in Food Service Management. She also did a competitive internship as a culinary/baking assistant at Walt Disney World’s Contemporary Resort in Orlando, Fla. In 2011, she completed a Master’s of Business Administration (M.B.A.) degree with concentrations in Finance and International Business from Argosy University in Phoenix, Ariz.

he American Red Cross issued an emergency request for platelet and blood donors of all blood types to roll up a sleeve and give because many fewer donations than expected were received in June and the first week of July. “We are counting on generous volunteer blood and platelet donors to step up and give now,” said Brigid O’Neill LaGier, Amy N. Fox, O.D. Hours: M,W,F 9:30-5:30 Chief Executive Officer for the Red Cross Penn-Jersey Blood Services Region. “Every two seconds, someone in the U.S. Michael A. Karliner O.D. Tu,Th 9:30-7:00 needs blood. Each day donations come up short, less blood is available for these patients in need.” Nationwide, donations through the Red Cross were down approximately 10 percent in June, resulting in about 50,000 fewer donations than expected. The shortfall is similar to what the Red Cross experienced in June 2012. The Red Cross urgently needs donations to ensure an adequate blood supply is available for patients all summer long. Each day, the American Red Cross Penn-Jersey Blood Ser vices Region needs approximately 1200 donors to step forward and give blood. Eligible donors with types O negative, B negative and A negative blood are especially encouraged to give. Type O negative is the universal blood type and can be transfused to anyone who needs blood. Types A negative and B negative can be transfused to Rh positive or negative patients. There is also an urgent need for platelet donations. Platelets – a key clotting component of blood often needed by cancer patients – must be transfused within five days of donation, so it’s important to have a steady supply of platelets on hand.

“National Night Out” August 6 Bring Non-Perishable Food and Win Great Prizes he National Association of Town Watch (NATW), in partnership with Lower Merion Community Watch, will host the annual “National Night Out” (NNO) Festival in the Ruby’s lot in Suburban Square in Ardmore on Tuesday, August 6 from 6 to 9 p.m. Annually, over 3,000 guests enjoy live music, food, rides, carousel, carnival games, LM Police, Fire and EMS exhibits, funnel cakes, roving entertainment, child fingerprinting/ video and home safety information. All those attending are asked to bring non-perishable goods to benefit Eldernet’s Food Pantry. Those who bring food will receive a raffle ticket making them eligible for some great prizes including: $50 Gift Certificate to Gillane’s Bar & Grille, a Full Vehicle Detail from Ardmore Toyota and a $50 Gift Certificate to Suburban Square. This year is the “30th Annual National Night Out” which will involve over 37 million people from 15,000 communities across the country from all 50 states, U.S. territories, Canadian cities, and military bases worldwide. National Night Out is the brainchild of Matt Peskin of Wynnewood who created the event for NATW back in 1984. The event is designed to: (1) Heighten crime prevention awareness; (2) Generate support for, and participation in, local anticrime programs; (3) Strengthen neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships, and; (4) Send a message to criminals that neighborhoods are organized and fighting back. “NNO is about the good people across our area who work hard throughout the year to make our neighborhoods safer places,” Peskin said. “Too often we hear about the bad things. It’s about good programs and good people.” Parking will be available throughout the Suburban Square area. Learn more about National Night Out at www.nationalnightout.org.

Guest speaker Esther S. Oh, M.D., (center) is welcomed to the Abramson Center’s Evening of Recognition by Michael B. Steinberg (Philadelphia), chairman of the board; Carol A. Irvine (Villanova), president and CEO; and Development Co-chairs Lorraine Drobny (Blue Bell) and Saul V. Reibstein (Cheltenham). More than 170 supporters were honored at the event for their generous contributions to the Center’s Annual Fund. The evening included dinner and an enlightening talk on successful aging and reducing your risk of developing dementia by Dr. Oh, an assistant professor in the Division of Geriatric Medicine and Gerontology and associate director of The Johns Hopkins Memory and Alzheimer’s Treatment Center, both of the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. The Madlyn and Leonard Abramson Center for Jewish Life, located in Horsham Township, Montgomery County, PA, is a nonprofit provider of services to seniors that include nursing care, personal care and independent living apartments, post-hospital transitional care, hospice, home care, adult day care, counseling and referral, as well as aging research.
