Portraits of Loudoun's Century Farmers
Virginia recognizes families that have been farming the same land continuously for at least a century. This exhibit comprises eleven black-and-white photographic portraits by Philip Ulanowsky of Loudoun’s active Century Farm owners on their properties, accompanied by a brief history synopsis of each farm — some go back to the mid-1700s. These hand-made gelatin-silver prints from film negatives made over the past summer, mostly with a 4x5-inch view camera, represent my contribution to educating people about the legacy of family farming and its vital importance today.

A Christmas Story by StageCoach Theatre
Humorist Jean Shepherd’s memoir of growing up in the midwest in the 1940s follows 9-year-old Ralphie Parker in his quest to get a genuine Red Ryder BB gun under the tree for Christmas. Ralphie pleads his case before his mother, his teacher and even Santa Claus himself at Higbee’s Department Store. The consistent response: “You’ll shoot your eye out!” All the elements from the beloved motion picture are here, including the family’s temperamental exploding furnace; Scut Farkas, the school bully; the boys’ experiment with a wet tongue on a cold lamppost; the Little Orphan Annie decoder pin; Ralphie’s father winning a lamp shaped like a woman’s leg in a net stocking; Ralphie’s fantasy scenarios and more. A Christmas Story is destined to become a theatrical holiday perennial.
