BROAD RIPPLE BREWPUB CELEBRATES 30TH ANNIVERSARY Writer / Jon Shoulders Photographer / Michael Durr

6 / BROAD RIPPLE MAGAZINE / NOVEMBER 2020 / atBRip.com

A

s John Hill, owner of Broad Ripple Brewpub, looks back on 30 years in midtown Indy, he sees no reason why the long-standing restaurant and brewery can’t survive for at least 30 more.

“With the pandemic things are a little uncertain, but besides that, I think we could be here for a good while longer,” says Hill, a native of North Yorkshire, England.

Back in February of 1967 Hill was in Vancouver, British Columbia, when he decided to tag along with a group of friends to the Hoosier state. He’s been here ever since.

“A couple friends were leaving Vancouver and when I asked where they were going, they said Indianapolis,” Hill recalls. “I asked if they had any room in the car and went along, and that’s how I got here. It could’ve been anywhere honestly, but it was fortunate because I’ve enjoyed it here.”

After working in construction for a while, Hill and his wife Nancy got into the restaurant business as co-owners of the Corner Wine Bar and The Wellington Pub in the early 1980s. Eventually, the couple decided to try their luck and launched the very first brewery in the state in 1990, and the Brewpub was born on November 14 of that year.

“Having some experience as a contractor and an engineer, I thought there was no reason why I couldn’t build my own pub, so we took over this space and built the brewery as the first one in Indiana,” Hill says.

Word spread and business picked up quickly according to Hill, and he says this was proof that Indy residents had been in need of a brewery to call their own.

“We got tons and tons of press back then because we were the first [brewery],” Hill says. “We did great - for the first 10 years it was like we were the only business around.”

Hill recalls when Broad Ripple was essentially the only entertainment district in the city and has been excited to see other pockets of Indy develop culinary and nightlife scenes through the years since the pub opened.

“You’ve got Fountain Square, downtown, Carmel, Irvington and Mass Ave, and they’re all doing

7 / BROAD RIPPLE MAGAZINE / NOVEMBER 2020 / atBRip.com

fairly well now, but back then it was just us around here and Plump’s,” he says. “There’s so much going on now and there are breweries all over the state, which is great.

I’m glad I got in early.”

The Brewpub is an English-style establishment through and through, down to the detailed, dark wood interiors, local artwork and fireplace.

Much like the establishment’s physical interior, the food selection has seen a few changes through the years, but the nuts and bolts have remained the same. The sizable menu includes appetizers like nachos, wings and pub chips, meat and vegan burgers, entrees such as meatloaf, chicken schnitzel, and bangers and mash, and much more.

“A lot of it is the same as when we opened - the Scotch eggs, fish and chips, pizzas and things like that,” Hill says. “We have a big specials page that we’ve had for a number of years that changes all the time.”

The beers on tap typically include ales like the Dual Citizenship and Lawn Mower Pale Ale, as well as lagers and stouts.

The OPB (other people’s beer) menu features local brewers like Sun King, Bell’s and Upland, and includes gluten-free options. Growlers are available for pickup.

"THE VILLAGE HERE HAS KEPT THE SAME FEEL THAT IT’S HAD FOR A LONG TIME, AND THAT’S WHAT I LIKE. IT’S BEAUTIFUL.” - JOHN HILL -

Hill’s daughter Beth Hannan and her husband Billy took the reins of the day-to-day operations at the dogfriendly Brewpub a few years ago, and as owner, Hill still helps out with maintenance and odds-andends jobs.

“The whole idea of building the pub the way I built it 30 years ago was that when I retired I’d be doing what I did in England - I

8 / BROAD RIPPLE MAGAZINE / NOVEMBER 2020 / atBRip.com

was brought up in England drinking in pubs from when I was 15,” Hill says. “I wanted to have a bunch of friends, when I retired, to sit around with and drink beer. Now that’s basically what we do.”

The pub isn’t only the site of the first brewery in the state. It’s also the place where the Broad Ripple Farmers Market was born, back in 1994 in the parking lot. The market grew and moved first to the Indianapolis Art Center and then the Bungalow and eventually Broad Ripple High School.

“It started with just seven vendors here, and it’s been nice to see how much it’s grown,” Hill says of the Farmers Market.

Since the pandemic hit earlier this year, Hill says the pub has weathered the governmentmandated shutdown and subsequent reduction in capacity requirements fairly well, thanks to a built-in, dedicated customer base of all ages that has supported the establishment for years.

“We’ve tried to do our best, and keep everybody safe,” Hill says. “We appreciate everybody that comes in, especially during these times.”

After 40 years as a Broad Ripple resident, Hill is proud of his surroundings and doesn’t see himself leaving the area any time soon.

“I live behind the Jazz Kitchen, and it’s just a great, quiet neighborhood you can walk around in - besides, there aren’t enough moving vans to move everything out of my house now at this point,” he says with a laugh. “The Village here has kept the same feel that it’s had for a long time, and that’s what I like. It’s beautiful.”

Broad Ripple Brewpub is located at 842 East 65th Street in Indianapolis. For more information, call 317-253-2739 and visit broadripplebrewpub.com.

On a Saturday afternoon in 1965, three men and their families decided to play a game of badminton. Unable to find a shuttlecock, they improvised. They lowered the net, poked holes in a plastic ball and crafted paddles out of spare plywood. Pickleball was born.

“As soon as I played it for the first time I was hooked,” he says. “I grew up playing After 55 years, this combination of ping-pong. Me and my brother are super badminton, table tennis and traditional competitive. It reminded me of shrinking tennis is one of the fastest-growing sports in yourself down to a ping-pong table.

Marcus Woodhouse, president and cofounder of Indy Pickleball Club (IPC) says he fell in love with the game about five years ago.

It was at these tournaments where Woodhouse says he was inspired to create IPC. “I travel for pickleball tournaments all over,” 10 / BROAD RIPPLE MAGAZINE / NOVEMBER 2020 / atBRip.com

he says. “All the tournaments are held by the clubs in all the bigger cities. I noticed the need in our city to get one voice in one place. It seems like more of the small towns are getting pickleball courts and the bigger cities haven’t caught up to the smaller cities. I wanted to get tournaments here. I wanted to do something for the city - to do something for kids and grow the sport in the Indianapolis area.”

IPC officially launched in August of 2019, and the club’s stated mission is “to grow the sport of pickleball in central Indiana

by developing and promoting recreation, league and tournament opportunities for players of all ages and ability.” In its brief existence, IPC membership has grown to more than 100 pickleball players.

Woodhouse says he expects that number to continue to grow.

“Our ultimate goal, obviously, would be to have well over 1,000-plus members,” he says.

The number of people who play pickleball increased 650% between 2013 and 2019 according to the USA Pickleball Association.

2020 has seen the postponement or cancellation of pickleball tournaments all over the country, but Woodhouse says he believes the coronavirus pandemic is bringing more people to the sport.

“I think COVID has really helped bring families to the game,” he says. “Once they

opened up the courts I saw a bunch of families learning to play at the parks and doing that as a family.”

also procures courts for beginner classes where newcomers can learn the game. The proceeds from these events are put back into the club to fund its long-term goals.

Woodhouse attributes pickleball’s increasing popularity to the game’s accessibility.

The club is working towards becoming a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.

“Everyone can play it,” he says. “You can be 90 years old or eight years old and play. You “It’s about pickleball and only pickleball,” can be a former NFL player or basketball Woodhouse says. player and play. It has no restrictions.

In addition to the IPCC, Woodhouse says he wants IPC to help build pickleball courts throughout central Indiana.

“We’re just trying to find places for that to be organized, and to just keep growing the sport so that we can introduce more and more people to it,” he says. “One of my ultimate goals is to be able to have pickleball in every school. Having facilities where schools can bring their kids would be one of my absolute dreams. Hopefully one day we’ll see it as a competitive sport in high schools.”

There will be a youth scramble on Friday, men’s and women’s doubles on Saturday, and mixed doubles on Sunday. Woodhouse says IPC is currently working to secure indoor locations for three pickleball tournaments this winter.

BUILT ON COMPASSION New Online Platform Offers Ways to Help Those in Need Writer / Kara Kavensky Photography Provided

Inspiration for a business takes many forms. With Aimee Kandrac, it was a close family friend in her 20s with brain cancer.

“My family wanted to do so much to help,” recalls Kandrac, founder of WhatFriendsDo. “We could not find an app that met our friend’s needs, so we created one.”

WhatFriendsDo was born from love for a friend, and since its inception more than a decade ago, the online platform has provided compassionate care for over 35,000 individuals experiencing a life-changing event such as a health crisis.

This number does not include the vast number of volunteers, known as teams, who rally around a loved one through the WhatFriendsDo concept.

WhatFriendsDo enables users to post real-time updates, including photos and videos, and offers a way for individuals to request help they need. Whether it is rides to physician appointments, meal preparation, help with walking a dog or house cleaning, the application’s calendar feature helps

13 / BROAD RIPPLE MAGAZINE / NOVEMBER 2020 / atBRip.com

individuals specify their needs. The WhatFriendsDo platform is integrated with Amazon Wish List, and users can purchase gift cards through the app.

There is also an in-app feature for group video chats, and the ability to sell team gear.

The pandemic has underscored the need for connection in new ways. A virtual hug isn’t the same as in-person, so the WhatFriendsDo platform creates unique opportunities to help loved ones, even at a distance.

“Cancer and other illnesses do not care that there is a pandemic going on,” Kandrac says. “Traveling safely has created some obstacles for loved ones to visit one another during this time, and our app offers a creative solution to meet some of their needs.”

The company has expanded in other areas as well. Organizations like American Health Network and Athenex Oncology see the opportunity for connection for clients. Leaders at Athenex sought a solution to help metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients. MBC is treatable but incurable, and there is a high risk of isolation for those diagnosed with it.

Athenex was exploring how to create a solution for isolation before the pandemic hit. They found their answer with WhatFriendsDo.

“Athenex uses our platform with their own branding,” says Kandrac, who licenses WhatFriendsDo to other organizations in a business-to-business model. “Anything we can do to help others is a win-win.”

10 ESSENTIAL TIPS FOR HOSTING THANKSGIVING Writer / Abigail Hake Photography Provided

Can you smell the turkey and stuffing already? Thanksgiving dinners are not something that happens without preparation and strategy. If the day doesn’t flow just right, you could be in for disaster.

But here are a few helpful tips for hosting your big dinner with ease of execution.

1. BAKE DESSERTS EARLY

will still taste just as good, if not better!

2. SET THE TABLE PRIOR If you can, set the table at least the day before, do it. Gather your florals, your plates, your flatware and arrange them how you like. Not only will you be able to enjoy the table setting for a day or two longer, you will have taken one more thing off your plate for the big day and given yourself more time!

Or buy them pre-made. Honestly, this is one 3. WRITE OUT A thing that you don’t NEED to worry about if you don’t want to. If there’s that one pie that SCHEDULE you make every year, then make it, but make The key to hosting Thanksgiving like a boss it early. Make it a day (or two) before and it is execution. So the best way to execute 16 / BROAD RIPPLE MAGAZINE / NOVEMBER 2020 / atBRip.com

flawlessly is to know how you want the day to go down. Write out a schedule showing the order you’ll be putting things in the oven and include how long and what temperature. Leave spaces in between where you can add in what you’ll be doing on the stove during those cooking times. A schedule will really help the day go much smoother and prevent forgetting things.

4. EMPTY EVERYTHING

Trashes, Dishwasher, Fridge. Lots of things are going to be happening in the kitchen and you don’t want to have the extra stress of needing to unload the dishwasher and shove things in the fridge when you should be checking the turkey. Remember, there will be LOTS of dirty dishes and LOTS of

17 / BROAD RIPPLE MAGAZINE / NOVEMBER 2020 / atBRip.com

leftovers so make sure there is room for both before you even start the day. This is a perfect task to do the night before.

5. MAKE BREAKFAST EASY With all the food that’s going to be available in just a few short hours, don’t worry too much about preparing breakfast for everyone. Grab store bought muffins, donuts, or cinnamon rolls to set out early in the morning that the kids and husband can grab as they like. Or, if you have houseguests who prefer a warm breakfast, have the rest of the family take them to the best local cafe. This will give you a nice, quiet time before the other guests arrive.

6. DON’T DENY HELP It can be hard to open up your kitchen and allow others in, especially when you have a plan or idea of how everything is going to go. But if you’ve written it all down, don’t deny someone asking to help. Take all the help you can get! This might even allow you to sneak in a shower which you probably haven’t taken yet.

With the morning schedule being written out, others can see your plan and can help without hindering. If you don’t have it all written out, make sure when you accept the help from others that you give specific tasks so no one is feeling in the way.

7. DON’T FRET OVER THE APPETIZERS Look, there’s going to be a lot of food, so don’t fret the small stuff. Appetizers can be kept to easy charcuterie boards, fruits and veggies. If you are famous for certain appetizers, feel free to still make them, but try to make them ahead of time so all you have to worry about on the big day is setting them out.

8. MOCKTAILS & COCKTAILS Very. Important. Make sure you have drinks available for your guests. If you don’t want to have a full self-serve bar, pre-mix a seasonal drink for everyone to enjoy. Maybe keep the alcohol to the side 18 / BROAD RIPPLE MAGAZINE / NOVEMBER 2020 / atBRip.com

so your guests can add if they choose. Grab juice boxes for the kids so you don’t have spills all over the place too!

9. PLAN FOR EARLY ARRIVALS No matter what time you set the start of dinner, people will arrive earlier than you expect. Make sure you are ready. Have football on in one room and Thanksgiving parades in another. This is also where premade appetizers are perfect! Just pull them out as the doorbell rings and you are sure to be on the top hostess list.

10. EXPRESS YOUR GRATEFULNESS No matter how you spend your day, be sure to share how grateful you are for the amazing gifts you are all sharing. Whether everyone writes something down or you go around the table and share what you are grateful for out loud, make sure you do this.

It’s always great to come together and share the•good we are blessed to have.

PETROV FRAME ATELIER MIDTOWN BUSINESS SPECIALIZES IN CUSTOM FRAMING AND RESTORATION Writer & Photographer / Michael Durr

Owner Anatoly Petrov

A

t the corner of College Avenue and 52nd Street, passersby will notice a blue awning that reads, “Petrov Framing & Fine Art.” Inside, customers will find a man by the name of Anatoly Petrov, an artisan frame maker. Petrov Frame Atelier offers custom and archival framing services, including museum-quality, handcrafted frames, antique frame restoration and replication, historically accurate gilding, canvas stretching, and painting conservation.

Petrov has been in his current location for about six years, and his experience and knowledge in the trade are as unique as the

20 / BROAD RIPPLE MAGAZINE / NOVEMBER 2020 / atBRip.com

frames he creates. Petrov began working in New York City at what he says was one of the best framing businesses in the country. Developing his skills throughout many years, Petrov fell in love with the craft, and he continues to learn and offer various methods of custom framing and restoration.

“I go and buy the wood and we mill the frames here,” he says. “We stain, carve or guild them, so we are not limited to factory-produced molding or frames.”

What separates Petrov’s shop from other locations is that he strives to build and

restore pieces in the shop. The basement has a large working area where Petrov and his assistants have access to a multitude of tools. Petrov recalls a story of a client who came into the shop with an old frame that had been damaged. The client took the frame to a few locations before visiting Petrov, and was told the frame could not be fixed. The client had an emotional attachment to this original frame, which hung in her home for many years, so she was delighted when Petrov said he could restore the frame.

“We are working to create a frame shop where you can get everything done,” Petrov says.

A frame can be more than something that simply holds artwork - it can be a complementary component of the artwork itself. The time period, wood, texture and color are all factors Petrov considers when working with a client.

framers,” Petrov says. “How many frame shops do you go and find a profile molder or table saw or sander? I love framing.”

It’s this mentality that has allowed Petrov to create a successful business model built on traditional craftsmanship.

Petrov is an advocate for keeping business in the Indianapolis area, and this is one of his primary motivations when sourcing materials for his projects. Purchasing wood from local distributors is always his preferred method.
