The Show That Made

Country Music Famous!

othing says “Nashville” quite like a night at the Grand Ole Opry – the show that made country music famous—, and there’s no better season than autumn to visit the Opry Complex. After all, October is both the Opry’s birthday month and heralded as “country music month” from coast to coast. The Opry is set to celebrate its birthday this year with weeks of special shows and superstar appearances. The big red curtain goes up on Opry performances at the Grand Ole Opry House every Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday this fall. Additionally, the popular Opry Country Classics series celebrating country music’s all-time favorite songs returns to the Ryman Auditorium downtown on Thursday nights September 22 through October 27. Among those confirmed to visit the Opry stage this fall are Country Music Hall of Famers including Charlie Daniels, Ronnie Milsap, and Connie Smith; award-winners Rascal Flatts, Martina McBride, Steve Wariner, Crystal Gayle; and new voices on the charts including Chris Janson, Old Dominion, and The Cadillac Three.

Meanwhile, CMA award-winner Blake Shelton is set to welcome fans to the Opry House daily as the video host of Opry House Backstage Pass Tours, a one-of-a-kind experience that gives guests a look behind the scenes of country’s most famous show. Shelton’s fellow Opry member Darius Rucker plays video host during post-show tours, while the Opry’s Behind the Curtain VIP tour offers guests the opportunity to be backstage as the world-famous show begins. October 7 - 8 marks the Opry’s official Birthday Bash Weekend with star-packed Opry performances, music and fun on the Opry Plaza, and other activities including the return of Opry Bingo with autographed CDs, T-shirts, and collectibles up for grabs. As the Opry approaches the century mark of showcasing great music, hundreds of thousands of fans each year make pilgrimages from around the world to see and hear the show for themselves. Millions of other fans follow the Opry via 650 AM WSM, Sirius XM Satellite Radio, syndicated radio, opry. com, the Opry’s mobile app, and social media. Not bad for 91! Happy Birthday, Grand Ole Opry!

the “Soul of Nashville”

stablished in 1892 as the Union Gospel Tabernacle, Ryman Auditorium is a National Historic Landmark and must see for any Nashville visitor.

Take a Self-Guided or Guided Backstage tour and discover what makes the Ryman, the “Soul of Nashville.” At the start of your tour, you will be immersed in the Ryman’s magical history during “Soul of Nashville,” a one-of-a-kind theater experience which puts the spotlight on more than a century of legendary performances and showcases a new collaboration with Darius Rucker, The Fisk Jubilee Singers, Sheryl Crow and Vince Gill.

Then, take your place center stage, grab a guitar and step up to the microphone while you have your photo taken on the legendary planks.

Goo Goo Cluster In 1912, in a copper kettle at the Standard Candy Company at Clark & First Avenue in Nashville, Tennessee, the first combination candy bar was invented. A roundish mound of luscious caramel, creamy marshmallow nougat and fresh roasted peanuts all covered in real milk chocolate, the Goo Goo Cluster has been delighting Nashvillians and visitors to Music City ever since. Goo Goo Clusters were originally hand dipped and sold without wrappers under glass at drug store candy counters. With the dawn of hand wrapping, a team of ladies was responsible for swaddling the Goo Goo Clusters in tin foil before they were sold. Eventually, machinery was put in place to automate wrapping the candy. Today, the process is so streamlined that Standard Candy Company in Nashville can produce 20,000 clusters in one hour! In the years since the birth of the Original Goo Goo Cluster, the company has introduced two new flavors to their product line: the Supreme, which replaces peanuts with pecans, and the Peanut Butter, a peanut butter center sprinkled with crunchy peanuts then covered in real milk chocolate. Another exciting addition to the brand’s offerings was added last year, a flagship retail store, the Goo Goo Shop. Located in the SoBro area of downtown Nashville, the Goo Goo Shop is no ordinary retail store. Visitors have the opportunity to take a walk through history as they peruse a 100+ year timeline complete with artifacts from the Goo Goo archives, plus feast their eyes upon Premium Goo Goos being made by hand in a glassedencased confectionery kitchen. Sold exclusively at the Goo Goo Shop, Premium Goo Goos are a 4-ounce gourmet confection with a wide variety of inclusions. The Premium menu rotates periodically and new, unique flavors are introduced on a regular basis, with four to six options available on any given day. In late 2015, the company unveiled yet another sweet offering: the Goo Goo Shop Dessert Bar! Housed within the Goo Goo Shop, the Dessert Bar serves up all sorts of yummy treats, coffee and sodas. From pies to sundaes to milkshakes, there is a little something for everyone. For more information on Goo Goo Cluster and the Goo Goo Shop, visit www.googoo.com.

Nashville Nightlife Dinner Theater “A Must See in Nashville”

re you looking for some good ole’ home cooking, exceptional Southern Hospitality and live entertainment that will have you singing along and tapping your feet? Then Nashville Nightlife is definitely the place to go! We recently had the pleasure of a night out at the theater. We were warmly greeted at the door and given our tickets. We browsed the lobby area where we found unique, one-of-a-kind souvenirs and gifts. Before long, the hostess called our name and personally seated our party in the dinner theater. A smiling, friendly waitress took our beverage order and directed us to the buffet table. There we found a lovely salad bar and a first-class buffet with country fried chicken and ribs as their entrees that night, complete with all the fixins’. Everything was homemade right down to the peach cobbler for dessert. I had the warm feeling of being in my grandma’s kitchen. Once the entertainment starts, I guarantee you will be dancing in your seat. We were treated to such a wide variety of music from Hank Williams Sr., Patsy Cline, and Conway Twitty to Sara Evans and Toby Keith. There is

Following the show there is a meet and greet with the performers.

In addition to Iroquois, there were two other famous horses that can trace their lineage back to Belle Meade: Seabiscuit and War Admiral, both made popular again by the 2011 best-selling novel.

attractions Nashville’s Frist Center Presents Women, Art, and Social Change: The Newcomb Pottery Enterprise

Now thru November 6, 2016

t Nashville’s Frist Center for the Visual Arts, the largest and most comprehensive exhibition of Newcomb arts and crafts in more than a quarter century is on display in the exhibition Women, Art, and Social Change: The Newcomb Pottery Enterprise. Created and organized by the Newcomb Art Museum, Tulane University, and the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service (SITES), the exhibition is making the final stop of its nine-city tour at the Frist Center. Newcomb pottery is one of the most significant of all American art potteries, critically acclaimed and highly coveted. With more than 180 works that span 45 years of production (1895–1940), Women, Art, and Social Change offers new insights into the Newcomb community’s 1 enduring mark on American art and industry. The exhibition examines the role played by H. Sophie Newcomb Memorial College, Tulane University’s coordinate institution for women, in promoting art for the advancement of women and, in turn, New Orleans’ business and cultural communities, which were still struggling from the effects of the Civil War. “Women, Art, and Social Change brings together a variety of objects created during the lifespan of the Newcomb enterprise,” explains Sally Main, a distinguished Newcomb Pottery authority. “The finest examples of the pottery art form will be displayed alongside pieces that will come as a revelation to many—not only a rich variety of crafts but also photos and artifacts that breathe life into the Newcomb legacy.” What began as an educational experiment flourished into a quasicommercial venture that offered unprecedented opportunities 3 for Southern women to support

themselves financially during and after their training as artists. “When seen against the backdrop of social history, which this exhibition emphasizes, these beautiful works of art and the women who made them appear even more remarkable,” observes Frist Center curator Trinita Kennedy. The Frist Center’s presentation includes an educational component that demonstrates production techniques employed by Newcomb potters and decorators through a series of inprogress vessels made by Nashville ceramicists Danielle McDaniel, co-owner of the Clay Lady Studios, and Lyndy Rutledge. Many works of the Newcomb Pottery enterprise were inspired by the native flora and fauna of the Gulf South, a distinctive hallmark that made them immediately recognizable and popular with collectors, curators and tastemakers across the country. This exhibition features iconic examples of the pottery, including a 2 majestic daffodil motif vase by Harriet Coulter Joor recently acquired by the Newcomb Art Museum, and jewelry, such as the silver and moonstone necklace attributed to Mary Williams Butler, the head of Newcomb’s metalwork department, along with textiles, metalwork, bookbinding, works on paper, and other 4 historical artifacts. Visit fristcenter.org for more information about related public programs, as well as the Center’s full service café and gift shop that always has exhibitionrelated gifts along with handcrafted jewelry, ceramics, prints, and more!
