Lee Smith, author of Saving Grace and On Agate Hill says of Appalachia Now, “Hard, brilliant, and dark as coal, this brand new and necessary volume captures Appalachia today, a place where the old bedrock verities of family, community, belief, work, and the earth are all in painful Upheaval --to use the title of Chris Holbrook’s story herein. From manic to elegiac to rough, raw, beautiful, and heartbreaking, these stories will strike the reader as both absolutely true and unforgettable.” |

Matt traded in his Ivy League education along with a lucrative finance career--for a gig in a piano store, betting that his artistic talents would propel him beyond the comfort that his academic achievements all but guaranteed. |

| Aug 28 Brown Bag at the Depot |
Bring your lunch on down to Sylva’s newest park! Come picnic with your neighbors every Friday at 12:00 for a brown bag lunch—bring your own or order from your favorite local restaurant. Unofficially called The Depot, the park is located at the corner of Spring and Mill Street along Railroad Avenue.
First Brown Bag at The Depot is Friday May, 22nd at noon. The park is not quite finished, but has a great looking future. The space used to be the center of town and held the train depot. Come be a part of Sylva's newest gathering place! Contact Main Street Sylva Association Director Paige Dowling at townmanager@townofsylva.org for more information. |
