Admittedly, it’s a little late to be welcoming you to Knoxville. Whether you’re a freshman or a sixth-year senior, you’ve at least been living here for about two months now, and you should probably know a few basic things by this point, like how Knoxville hosted the World’s Fair in 1982 or how it can seem like the seventh circle of hell for people with allergies.

But, this issue isn’t meant to introduce you to Knoxville, despite the headline on the front page. It’s meant to explore the city’s unique atmosphere, the shops and businesses that set it apart from other small, Southern cities and all of the people who call this place home. We wanted to highlight some of the characteristics of Knoxville

that could take someone years to identify.

Because while it would be easy to divide your time spent in Knoxville between campus and wherever you sleep at night — something I’ll admit I’m guilty of far too often — you’d be missing out on so much Scruffy City quirkiness. So, in this issue, among other things, you’ll read stories about the musicians who got their start here, the graffiti that decorates Market Square alleyways and the crime-ridden disgustingness that is Fort Sanders. You’ll also see the faces and hear the stories of some of the homeless community in Knoxville, and see how different the city can seem to someone who spends their nights without a bed.

This is my fourth — and potentially my last — year living here, and after three, fly-by years, Knoxville isn’t just the city I live in. It’s where I learned how to be my own person, where I realized what was important to me and where I spent nights I’ll never forget with friends I only would have met here. I didn’t care much for Knoxville when I first moved

here, but now, when I’m heading back after a few days away and I start to see the shape of the Sunsphere form in the distance, I feel a pang of familiarity and pride and the relief of returning home.

So, whether your here for the long haul or just passing through, don’t forget to take a break from the papers and the football games every once and awhile and get to know the city that you’re calling home. After all, Rocky Top will always (or at least for the next few years) be home sweet home to me.

Ijams offers scenic refuge Rob Harvey

Asst. Sports Editor While UT offers plenty of recreational activities on campus, sometimes you just have to get away.

Located in South Knoxville, about four miles from campus, there is a vast park which evolved from a bird sanctuary in the early 20th century. Now Ijams Wildlife and Learning center is filled with outdoor activities for both novices and experts such as hiking, climbing, paddle boarding and biking.

Ijams Visitor Service Member Sarah Brobst said that the park began in 1910 when the Ijams family bought the first 20-acre property.

Family patriarch H.P. Ijams was an avid bird watcher and his wife Alice Ijams was one of the first ladies of the Knoxville Garden Club.

“Their conservation spirit was passed onto their daughters and into the community, and in 1968, the official dedication for Ijams Nature Park happened,” Brobst said. “Then, over the years, Ijams slowly grew to the over 300 acres it is today.”

On one side of the nature center, Mead’s Quarry is one of the most popular places to visit. There, visitors are able to kayak, ride boats, canoe, paddle board or just cool off in the lake.

Daniel Kitsmiller, senior in material sciences, is a UT student who goes to Ijams, specifically, to enjoy Mead’s Quarry.

“It was very interesting,” Kitsmiller said of his first trip to the popular swimming hole.

“I went with friends to swim a little bit, but mainly, we just went and hung out around the quarry.”

Aside from the quarry, 12 miles of trails highlight the hiking and biking portion of Ijams. Various types of bikes are available to rent at the visitor’s center for daily use. On these trails, there are multiple stops along the way with magnificent views of nature and the Tennessee River.

“Most visitors come out for outdoor fun,

and the most popular trail on the property is the River Trail,” Brobst said. “Everyone loves to come and see that before heading out on other adventures in the park.”

One of Ijams largest activities is the Ijams Canopy Experience, which stretches throughout the park. Visitors can zipline, walk over elevated bridges or through tunnels in the air and go on swings.

Ijams also hosts many events and programs every year from canoe tours to birdhousemaking workshops as well as concerts in the park. There is at least one event every day and some days multiple programs and events occur. In October, the nature center’s events will take a spookier turn with a screening of “The Lost Boys” for the first Fright-Day at Iijams.

Ijams recently started up an Outdoor Academy, which provides courses that are designed to teach outdoors skills and are open to all skill levels. Some classes offered include rock climbing, caving, camping, backpacking and team building.

Ijams, and all it has to offer, is part of a collection of public nature parks in Knoxville called Urban Wilderness, a collection of trails and bike paths connected together from different parks. One of these connections is called the South Loop, which includes Ijams.

Trey Barrett, junior in psychology, has been to almost all of the parks in Urban Wilderness and has done almost every activity the park offers. With all that under his belt, he is eagerly awaiting new ways to explore Ijams and Knoxville’s Urban Wilderness.

“I’ve actually done all of the above (swimming, hiking, biking), and I’ve really enjoyed all of them,” Barrett said. “Knoxville recently won a grant for $100,000 to build downhill mountain bike trails at Baker Creek (another part of Urban Wilderness).”

As the year continues and you’re looking to take a break and swim, hike, bike or basically do anything outside, then Ijams and Urban Wilderness offer a natural refuge inside Knoxville’s city limits.

Artists take back the streets in Graffiti Alley Strong alley, located between Market Square and Gay St., is more commonly referred to as “graffiti alley.” The alley originated as the first part of the Artist Alley Revamp Project, which cleared the alley of tagging and illegal graffiti and replaced it with commissioned artwork. The idea was to decrease vandalism and increase foot-traffic to view the various art pieces. The project has been a huge success, with the walls covered in commissioned work— and only some minimal tagging. Largely, Artist Alley Revamp art is a collaboration, first between agreeing business owners and willing artists, but also acts as a collaboration between the artists themselves.

Areas of the walls are divided in 3 by 3 to 10 by 10 spaces for individual works. Many of the artists hold multiple spots, but are conscientious of leaving space for other’s artwork. The art changes periodically, with the pieces currently in the alley dating from 2012 to this year. The alley also provides an array of styles as many of the artists come from various artistic background and lifestyles, reflecting the diversity of the Knoxville art community. Jayne McGowan, creator of the Artist Alley Revamp Project, has also expanded the movement to Java Alley in Old City in the hopes the project will expand to more areas in Knoxville.

(Above) The alley has become a community of sorts for the artists involved. “I have enjoyed painting with others but a lot of times I’m there by myself,” Swaggerty said. “When I do paint with someone it’s my friend Shane Sandberg. He has several awesome pieces in the alley as well. We are always looking for walls to paint and ways to collaborate if possible. Our goal is to do large scale murals that cover whole building sides, eventually.”

(Top Right) While the alley is still subject to tagging and occasional vandalism, the change is evident. “The main change is that it has gotten better over the years, I think,” offered Swaggerty. “The artists really try to do good work for everyone to enjoy.”

(Right) “On a daily basis, you get tired of seeing tag names, spray on a wall just for the sake of spraying something there,” S.J. Van Der Berg, another Artist Alley Revamp organizer, said. “I thought it’d be nice to get artists to put some pictures up, something really good.”

(Top Left) “My Popcorn Sutton piece means the most to me,” Swaggerty said.

“It’s the first thing people see of mine, and it has gotten a lot of likes and pictures taken of it on Instagram. It required me doing a lot of painting by brush which is more time consuming.”

(Top Right) Strong Alley, more commonly referred to as “Graffiti Alley” lies between Market Square and Gay Street.

(Left) Popularly known as Cathedral Guy, Brian Pittman’s work in the alley is currently incomplete, but many still enjoy the elaborate piece. “I’m trained as an architect and practice with a local firm, and I thoroughly enjoy my job and what I do there,” Pittman said. “I last drew cathedrals in high school, abandoning them in college thinking they were not ‘professional.’ After the urging of a friend to sketch on plywood on Wall Avenue along side other local artists, I realized most folks seemed to appreciate the innate obsessive-compulsiveness of my work even if the images are not based on real cathedrals, which they never are.”

(Bottom Right) Swaggerty has about seven pieces in the alley currently and has logged 75-85 hours over the past two years. Most of his pieces take around four to eight hours to complete, but his Popcorn Sutton piece took about 20 hours. All photos by Alex Phillips • The Daily Beacon

(Far Left) Many of the artists are wary of taggers and other destructive defacing.

“Give them time, and people always come and ruin your work,” Markert said. “It gets to be a free for all, which is the case with street art and people just come and start doing stuff.” Swaggerty similarly frequently checks his artwork as he fears others’ defacements could reflect poorly on him.

Markert is known for her flapper girl style pieces, Sandberg for his more detailed working and Swaggerty for pop culture references such as the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and the Kool-Aid Man pieces.

Construction problems give game attendees headaches Trenton Duffer

Sports Editor Everywhere you look, some sort of construction is underway on UT’s campus. New buildings, better roads and an all-around better environment are supposed to be on the way, but the delay may have game attendees and students waiting for a while.

Currently, there are 11 projects being worked on by the University of Tennessee and the city of Knoxville. The most prominent two are the second phases of the new Student Union building and Cumberland Avenue, but the Volunteer Boulevard streetscape project has also been a pain for students and visitors on campus.

But on game days, all of these construction projects are put on hold.

Dave Irvin, the associate vice chancellor for facilities services, said the university worked this summer to get the majority of these projects done and that workers focus on low-traffic times to do the heavier work.

“If we’re pouring concrete at the Student Union, all of that concrete and all of those concrete trucks and all the disruptions those cause come in between midnight and 5 a.m., so it wouldn’t impact our students, facility and

visitors,” Irvin said. “There’s hardly any corner of campus that doesn’t have construction projects going on right now.”

The first phase of the Student Union building was completed and opened to the public in June 2015. The second phase will include adding a large auditorium, a large ballroom, more dining areas and a student recreation center.

The second phase of the Student Union is set to be finished in 2018.

But the main slow down for game day attendees — fans and students alike — is the Strip’s construction.

Cumberland Avenue, or the Strip, is currently having underground utilities from KUB added and will be narrowed from the original four lanes to three lanes. The third lane will be made a green space with trees and other plantings along with multiple benches.

According to the city of Knoxville’s website, all Cumberland Avenue construction is estimated to be finished in August 2017 — an approximately 21 month project.

Irvin said the Strip’s plans are a city project and that it is a step in making the Strip more pedestrian-friendly.

“It will go from being a street that’s just a thoroughfare into a street that enhances the neighborhoods, is pedestrian-oriented and at the end of the day, kind of niches that whole

neighborhood together and triggers the private sector to make investments so that we can get a lot more services — hotels, shops, restaurants — right at our door step,” Irvin said.

Amy Wainwright, an attendee of the Vols game against the Ohio Bobcats on Sept. 17, said this was her first game attended, and the construction around the campus was sloppy, including the Strip.

“I went up and down Cumberland Avenue as I came into Knoxville,” Amy Wainwright said. “I don’t know how you can make a onelane road down and back out of that. And the potholes shook my car. I’ve always wanted to go with my husband to a game since he’s from Tennessee, but they still should have fixed it.”

Phillip Wainwright, her husband, agreed.

“I’m with the wife on this one,” he said. “I had heard that the roads were bad, but I almost had my glasses jarred off when I was coming up that road. If no one wants to fix those potholes, then I will.

“I can’t imagine you kids going to school each day and dealing with that. Y’all ain’t going to have any shocks left in your vehicles by the

time this is all said and done.”

Irvin said all of the campus construction projects combined have cost over $1 billion.

He added that he understands the entire construction process will be “kind of painful,” but that the end result of it all will be a more beautiful campus.

“I think it’s going to be an incredibly attractive campus with some fantastic buildings,” Irvin said. “That may be enough in itself, but that may not be enough when you look at what we’re spending … There’s a lot of things that will happen. It will be a much more tech-savvy campus (as well).”

All 11 ongoing projects are set to be completed around five years from now.

Irvin also said construction is going incredibly fast and that he is excited to see how it all will look when it’s finished.

“Many of the students who are on campus now, or students who will be entering our campus next fall, will see those improvements happen while they’re still here,” Irvin said. “They’ll get a chance to see these improvements and to enjoy them.”

No ‘Home sweet home’ on Rocky Top

Knoxville’s homeless population share their stories, love for the city Presley Smith

Opinions Editor They come from different backgrounds, different races and different areas.

But all of Knoxville’s homeless population struggle with finding a place to call home.

Together, Knoxville Area Rescue Ministries and the Knoxville Police Department have worked to estimate where Knoxville’s homeless population is coming from, and why it is growing so quickly.

KARM estimates that of those who are homeless in Knoxville, 76 percent are white, 20 percent are African-American and 3 percent come from other ethnic backgrounds.

But why are they homeless? KARM esti-

“

They’re good to me, and I love it here.

Been here my whole life.”

— Pops

mates that 26 percent served in the armed forces, and 47 percent of the homeless population say that they have been a victim of a violent crime, both of which have put them on the streets.

According to Tennessee’s website, “Veterans who have a mental illness, substance use disorder or a co-occurring mental illness and substance use disorder who are experiencing long-term homelessness can receive specialized case management services, outreach, and help finding permanent affordable housing.” However, this help is only available in Shelby and Davidson counties, not Knox County.

The Knoxville News Sentinel’s “No more Lakeshore? Commissioner, critics debate mental-health facility’s closure” and the

Asylum Project Organization cited a correlation between an increase in the city’s homeless population and the closing of Lakeshore Asylum in 2012. This would account for the 50 percent rise in the homeless population in the last decade. The facility’s closing left hundreds of patients with nowhere to go, and the few hospitals and ministries that Lakeshore contracted with, such as the Helen Ross McNabb Center, were left completely at capacity with an extensive wait list.

To combat homeless population increases such as these, Tennessee does have a program for the homeless with mental health issues called PATH. According to the Tennessee State Government website, “PATH, or Projects for Assistance in Transition from Homelessness, serves people with serious mental illness, including those with co-occurring substance use disorders who are experiencing homelessness or are at imminent risk of becoming homeless.

Outreach is focused on helping people who are living on the streets or in homeless shelters.” However, the Helen Ross McNabb Center is the only one of these institutions in Knoxville.

To get the personal perspectives of Knoxville’s homeless community, The Daily Beacon’s opinions editor, Presley Smith, went into the city to hear their stories.

When I showed up to Market Square in Downtown Knoxville in search of homeless people, I expected hesitation. I expected to be turned down, and I truly didn’t think I would get much information. That, however, could not be further from the truth.

These are the people that I spoke with, and these are their stories.

First was Herman “Pops” Houston Rudd.

He sits beside Blue Coast in Market Square and plays a small harmonica.

“My mama taught me how to play, she left this for me,” he said, tears welling up in his eyes. “It came with this little box too.”

I asked Pops what brought him here, and he explained that he’s lived here all of his life.

He said he chooses the alley because of the presence of police in Market Square itself.

“You sit up there, and the cops’ll getcha!” he said.

It was then that an employee from the restaurant next door asked if he wanted something to drink. Pops said “yes” then turned to me and said, “See? They’re real

good to me.”

Pops told me that he graduated in 1967, and immediately left for Vietnam.

“We went on a Greyhound, came back on a Greyhound,” he said. “Ain’t no parades like they got now. We were just dropped off and that was it.”

Pops explained that when he returned from the war in 1969, he got hurt. Fast forward a few years and he sits in the alley behind Market Square with three broken fingers and enough stories to fill a thousand books.

It was then that I thanked Pops for his service. He replied “Aw, you are very welcome.”

When the photographer and I were leaving, Pops asked if we had a lighter. “You smoke?” he asked. “No, sir,” I replied. “That’s good,” he chuckled. “Don’t you ever start.”

Next, I spoke with Gregg. Gregg sat on the stage in the middle of Market Square.

“Well good afternoon,” he said when we walked up.

I asked Gregg those same questions.

When I asked him what brought him here, he chuckled and simply said, “Peace of mind.”

He explained that he enjoyed the area, and the local ministries are great for people like him with “karma.”

Gregg came to Knoxville after leaving his job in Atlanta, and he explained that the congestion became too much to handle.

“Knoxville is a nice change,” he said.

“Ain’t met a sour person yet.”

Then, we made our way to Graffiti Alley and ran into Lucky and Anthony.

Lucky told me he came down the Tennessee River on a rowboat, and he’s only been in town for a couple of days.

“It’s a pitstop here,” he said. “I’ve moved around a lot. I came in from North Carolina.”

Anthony, who was sitting beside Lucky, told me he used to deliver papers around town.

“The News Sentinel, that was me!” he laughed.

Anthony also explained that he used to hand out programs for the UT football games, but the ins and outs of life eventually brought him to this back alley.

After talking with these men, I realized how happy they truly seem. Not only happy to speak with me, but happy to be in the Knoxville area. The local rescue ministries and shelters take care of around 50 percent of Knoxville’s homeless and work tirelessly to find a solution to Knoxville’s growing homeless population.

Knox brewery builds community Jenna Butz

Special Projects Editor When Adam Palmer, owner and president of Saw Works Brewery, first walked into the building that would house his business on Depot Street, a prostitute and her client were inside on an old couch with a handle of Jack Daniels and heroin needles strewn around.

He looked at his partner and said, “What are we doing?”

Six years later though, Saw Works is now known as the cornerstone of Knoxville and East Tennessee’s craft brewing scenes, being the first to distribute local craft beer in the area and foster a true beer culture in town.

“We want the overall awareness to grow here in Knoxville, and where we kind of put our stamp on things is we’re the cornerstone,” Palmer said. “We really feel like we are, and we use that, we leverage that.

“It’s not to be misguided; it’s not to be anything other than we are the cornerstone of the brewing industry in Knoxville, Tennessee.”

The brewery bases its success off of its dedication to the community and its motto, “traditional beers brewed for today.”

Palmer repeatedly emphasized the importance of working in the community to establish a home for his family and his business.

Connecting with the city that supports them and the people that drink Saw Works is what has kept Saw Works thriving and open to expanding.

“What we try to do as a brewery is we get very involved in the community,” Palmer said. “I bet you that if somebody asked what brewery has the most impact on the community, I don’t know who wouldn’t say Saw Works … That’s what makes me proud about what we do. We’re very community driven, and you don’t become a cornerstone by alienating the folks that patronize you and the folks that drive your business.”

Saw Works’ traditional style beers are what keep the customers coming back. Their three flagship brews — Brown Ale, Pale Ale and Rocky Hop IPA — are what Palmer calls “accessible” and “inoffensive.”

“We wanted traditional styles,” Palmer said. “We weren’t going to come out here and do anything fancy — peach this, watermelon whatever. We wanted styles that people can relate to.”

And the success story of these mottos is the Rocky Hop IPA, the brewery’s most popular, and Vols loving, brew.

“We knew with Rocky Hop that we had a homerun,” Palmer said. “The biggest thing with craft beer these days is trademark …

When we came up with Rocky Hop, we knew it was one of a kind, and we knew with UT, the color of the can. When we made the beer,

I said I want an orange beer with a white head. That’s it. No other way. Everything about this beer is UT.” Despite the success of these flagship beers though, Plamer and his team aren’t afraid to play with more non-traditional flavors. This, Palmer said, is where the tasting room comes into play.

In the tasting room, located at the Depot Street brewery, Saw Works serves its flagships as well as “rough cuts.” The rough cuts are beers that only exist in the tasting room and are the direct result of Saw Works brewers experimenting with flavors to create unique flavors to share.

These rough cuts are meant to provoke consumer feedback, and since the tasting room started serving these limited release beers, positive consumer feedback has resulted in the release of three new permanent additions to the Saw Works lineup in the coming months. The first one, to be released in November, will be a black IPA named “Baby Got Black.”

Palmer, a native of Chicago, also carved out his own niche, and claimed that “Knoxville kind of picked me.” Six years ago, he left the family business up North, and without experience in the craft brewing industry, decided that this industry’s growth along with Knoxville would be his next venture.

“I didn’t really anticipate getting into the brewing industry,” Palmer said. “I had no aspirations of being in craft beer.”

The building Saw Works is in used to house New Knoxville Brewing Company from 1995 to 2005. When Saw Works opened at Marble City Brewing in 2010, the next closest brewery was 90 miles away.

After a lawsuit was brought against the name Marble City Brewing by Marble Brewing in Albuquerque — even though Palmer said he called the brewery, and they expressed no issues with the name then — Palmer sought inspiration from the faded name on the side of the building: Wallace Saw Works. Now, few people remember the old name except for friends, family and long time patrons.

Saw Works is the name that has branded Palmer and his team through their adventure, but Palmer said that it’s the people involved that make the business worth it.

“The people that consume the product and the people that make the product are unique, and what we make is unique,” Palmer said.

“So there’s a good synergy. It’s one of those jobs where you don’t realize that you’re working everyday because of the people that are involved.”

But, what people will remember is the beer.

“Beer is kind of recession proof,” Palmer chuckled. “You drink it when you’re happy, you drink it when you’re sad.”

Local Americana band comes home with their first album, Bijou show Jenna Butz

Special Projects Editor

Tyler Anthony and Evan Ford had always been a duo.

The founders of local Americana band Cereus Bright were known for their intimate, twoperson, purely folk shows, but Anthony and Ford felt they needed something more.

Now, Cereus Bright is a five-piece set with the addition of Luke Bowers, Matt Nelson and Jake Smith, allowing the group to expand their sound in every direction in the Americana genre.

“I think we all wanted to create something that felt like a complete sound rather than just Evan and I at the forefront,” Anthony said. “It wasn’t necessarily a pointed direction shift as it was what felt natural.”

With a new sound under their belts, Cereus Bright released its first full-length album, “Excuses,” on July 29. Following two EPs, this album came three years after their last release, but Anthony said it was all just a part of the band’s growth.

“Part of the reason it took so long is when the band first started, it was just Evan and I, and we were just kind of a folky duo … That’s just how we started,” Anthony said. “Music was

something that we liked to do, loved to do, but it was just kind of like a hobby, playing around locally. Just enjoying it.

Over the course of these last three or four years, once we started touring more and getting other band members, our sound began to evolve and change as we changed and grew and listened to more music, were affected by just our lives. I think that inevitably happens.”

For many of the members, this album’s creation came at the end of their college careers — a time of discovery and confusion where one gets into the real world, Anthony said, and just goes “What the hell?” These questions and adventures mark the sound and writing of “Excuses.”

“There’s a certain existential crisis that comes when you get out of college. So, I think for us, there was just a lot going on,” Anthony said.

“We were learning about ourselves, growing and changing a lot. That showed up both in the content, the sounds of the album, but also even just the process of it.

“You only get one first album, so we just wanted to be sure that we were really intentional with and really took our time and made something we were really proud of.”

When the band was ready, instead of looking for outside help in a producer or label, they all went into their rehearsal space and simply

Cereus Bright in their former rehearsal space before a burglary and fire destroyed it. • Courtesy of Cereus Bright created a space and sound that Anthony called “purely us.” What that looked like, with their evolved sound and new members, was something Anthony said they wanted to experience freely.

Anthony and Ford brought their modern folk influences such as the Avett Brothers, The Head

& The Heart and the Lumineers back to the table, but Cereus Bright’s three new members were all UT School of Music graduates and brought what Anthony called “some sophistication” to the table. Their influences were more See CEREUS BRIGHT on Page 17

“Our favorite coffee shop has to be Old City Java. It’s been a staple of the Old City for years and has the best coffee in town. We travel a lot and drink a lot of coffee, but nothing beats an Americano by Sean. Do yourself a favor and make a visit,” Anthony said.

CEREUS BRIGHT continued from Page 16 classic and rock influenced with the Band, the Beach Boys, Wilco and My Morning Jacket. These influences colliding created the more varied, genre-bending sound that characterizes “Excuses.”

“It has been a long time coming, but it feels amazing to have it done,” Anthony said. “It was a creative turning point because it felt like it was starting to be a bottleneck moving forward. Couldn’t even imagine creating more.”

Another change from duo Cereus Bright to band Cereus Bright is what the group is writing about. Love has always been a topic in their songs, but now they’re looking to discuss society, consumerism, growing up and changing.

Two songs clearly echo these topics: “What Do You Think?” and “American Dream.” For Anthony, “What Do You Think?” reflects the changes he underwent as he grew up and the anxieties of what those around him would think of the new him.

Then, “American Dream” draws from the folk protest songs of the ‘60s that “unashamedly had an opinion.” Though Anthony admits there’s a fear of seeming too preachy, they had something they wanted to say.

“We never wanted to take the easy path out with art,” Anthony said of writing a traditional protest song. “We think that part of the folk tradition is really, really cool, and it’s not something you really see a lot today.

So, we really wanted to not shy away from that when those songs came out.

“I think we’re at the time in our country

and society where you can’t pretend like that’s not something we need to think about, and you can’t live under a rock. Some people maybe use music as an escape, but for us, it’s a way to pay attention.”

Now, Cereus Bright will take this album back home, playing a headlining show at the Bijou Theatre Friday, Sept. 30 — the first hometown show since the release of their first full-length album.

“It’s so meaningful to me, and it’s personal too because you have friends and family there and people that you see everyday,” Anthony said. “You want them to appreciate what you do and see it as significant and good. You want them to like it, and you want to do a good job. It’s a really big deal to us …

We’re really thankful for the Knoxville community that continues to cheer for us, love us, support us, allow us to do that. It’s fun to get to have you first big headlining shows of these sizes at a place that’s so personal and meaningful.”

For Cereus Bright, Knoxville is where it all began. All the members attended UT, and the band formed and evolved in the Scruffy City. It is where they can tell you where to go for the best Americano or point out all the places they’ve played hometown shows.

Now, they’ll come full circle, bringing their newest piece of art to their first fans.

“This is home,” Anthony said. “When your touring a lot and working on stuff a lot, you’re not even in your city that much, and when you are, you want to be with the people that you know. Knoxville has just continued to make the most sense, and we all have some roots here now. It’s affordable to live, the community’s really great, and continues to grow and thrive, and there’s a pride in that.”

“Our first ever show was at Remedy Coffee (now called Awaken). We had no clue what we were doing, but we’re sure glad they let us play. Be sure you check out this coffee shop as well, and if you’re a budding musician, this could be your first venue too,” Anthony said.

“Just a few blocks from downtown, the Old City is more like the art district of Knoxville. You’ll find a wide range or bars and coffee shops as well as new businesses, boutiques, costume shops and everything in between. As downtown grows, so does the Old City. New housing and development in the area is only bringing more great things to the area. If you’re looking for a place to explore in Knoxville, start there,” Anthony said.

BEARDEN/WEST HILLS

Chef provides Bearden area with culinary business Shelby Whitehead Contributor

When a customer walks into one of Holly Hambright’s restaurants, the person might not realize their chef has served royalty.

Chef and owner of three catering venues and eateries in Knoxville, Hambright is a major contributor to the Bearden community and has been throughout her life as an awarded caterer, restaurant owner and chef. She has served a range of people in addition to Knoxville citizens, including former Presidents Ford and Clinton as well as Frank Sinatra and a queen of Thailand.

Though creating a culinary experience is Hambright’s first love, she also supports the community through many outlets, including those that fall outside of the restaurant business.

“I always refer to Holly as the grande dame of cuisine in Knoxville,” Eric McNew, creator of the the blog KnoxFoodie and contributor to Hambright’s social media outlets, said. “She really works with the community. She is always involved with any nonprofit that approaches her.”

The institutions she supports relate to her family history. This includes East Tennessee

I always refer to Holly as the grand dame of cuisine in Knoxville.”

Eric McNew, creator of blog KnoxFoodie

Children’s Hospital, where one of her sisters was a neonatal nurse practitioner. Another is the Joy of Music School, where her father was a long-time volunteer piano tuner. Hambright’s other sister, Peg, owns a bakery in downtown Knoxville called Magpie’s.

“It seems the thing to do, to be involved in one’s community,” Hambright said.

This year, Hambright is serving on the board and as the co-chair for the Dogwoods Arts Festival. Hambright is a strong proponent of the arts and its role in the beautification of Knoxville. The art forms she and the festival focus on include historical preservation, Knox heritage, sculpture, painting and music.

“Food art is temporary, so I like to dabble in that which is more permanent,” Hambright said.

Hambright’s career began in hotels, where she liked the fast-pace nature of the job. When she transferred with her family to Dallas, she transitioned from the hotel industry to catering.

She then moved back to Knoxville and worked for Eric Nelson and his family at Gourmet’s Market & Cafe in 2003. This was Hambright’s first venture into the restaurant industry.

In 2008, Hambright joined the NOMA group and established her catering reputation, along with a supportive customer base.

“It just kind of grew from there,” Hambright said.

Holly’s Eventful Dining, a catering company that features local and homegrown foods, was the first of Hambright’s businesses.

Eventful Dining was followed by Holly’s Corner, which is located on Central Avenue in North Knoxville. The Corner serves lunch and is also a location for live music and performances.

The third venue is Holly’s Gourmet Market and Company. Nelson owned the Gourmet Market and Café for more than 30 years, and in October 2015 Hambright was named the new owner.

At all of her restaurant and catering businesses, Hambright’s food inspiration is what is

fresh and in season, but she said her personal inspiration is the younger employees coming to work for her.

“Being able to teach the craft to some of our young, upcoming chefs is inspiring,” Hambright said. “It’s peeling potatoes and repetition, and it’s not glamorous. It’s hard work, but it’s very rewarding.”

McNew mentioned Hambright’s influence on the local chefs in Knoxville.

“She has definitely left her mark,” McNew said.

Hambright sees her location in Bearden and the expansion of Knoxville as advantageous to her business. Clientele and retail in the Bearden area is strong given the central location.

With her multiple business ventures, Hambright shared some key components to her

success and longevity.

“Know your clientele. Know yourself. Do your research. Study your location well. Capitalize yourself. If you have to ask for help, ask for help.

Just be smart about it,” Hambright said.

Looking forward, Hambright sees the business expanding on the retail side and with her Take Home Dinners. Hambright’s concept for the dinners is to have everything prepared so that the customer need only to “heat it and eat it.”

Hambright emphasized the hard work it takes to be successful — a goal she never stops working to achieve.

“We do what we do every day to make Knoxville a great city to be from, a great city to live in, a great city to visit,” Hambright said. “I just want to be as good as I can be.”

Gourmet’s Market & Cafe is located on 5107 Kingston Pike.

Fort Sanders: Reputation dirtier than reality Chris Salvemini

Asst. News Editor Fort Sanders has developed a reputation among many UT students as one of the more dangerous Knoxville areas.

Despite rumors of parties getting out of hand and random violence, it is comparatively calm to the rest of the city.

The most common crime in the Fort is theft, from both homes and vehicles.

Statistically, most people who live in the Fort will never be involved in any sort of violent crime and KPD does not consider the Fort to be a hotbed of crime. “If you’re a student who moves here from a small town somewhere and you see some of the things that go on in the Fort, you might think that it is a very unsafe place,� University of Tennessee Police Department (UTPD) Chief Troy Lane said.

Lane said the Fort’s reputation is a matter of perspective. For a student originally from Memphis, Fort Sanders may not seem like a bad place but for another student originally from a small town, the urban sprawl can seem intimidating. “We are certainly cognizant of the things that go on in the Fort. We don’t like to see some of the nonsense that we see there. For the time I’ve been here, a handful of shootings have occurred there, armed robberies, that kind of thing,� Lane said. “They all seem to have a common denominator, and that’s drugs.�

To help curb crime in the area, UTPD works with KPD to go on safety blitzes, which inform people on ways to contact police and what to do if they are involved in a crime. The blitzes also teach residents about how to be safe in the Fort, such as locking doors and hiding valuable belongings in cars. “One of our biggest things about prevention is to get people to report suspicious activity. If we don’t know about potential crimes that could be happening, there’s not much we can do about it ‌ if you see something, even if it is

Broken glass, among other litter, can be found throughout Fort Sanders.

Alex Phillips • The Daily Beacon to 11th Street and to Alcoa Highway, and shares patrols in the area with KPD. The area is nearly the size of the rest of campus. Generally, the Fort starts on Cumberland Avenue along the Strip — where restaurants, coffee shops and corner stores surround the street and construction. The area attracts students and homeless people alike. “Sometimes it’s okay. It is dangerous out here, though. We got people that’s been raped, that’s been robbed. You got some of these homeless people that come out here that have no respect, but you got some of these frat kids that come out here that don’t have no respect
