COME ON DOWN!
BIG SALES GOING ON RIGHT NOW!!!!
 Sidewalk Tent Event Sales 
The DBA, Brandon Area Chamber and the Town of Brandon are working on another "get out to shop" idea to bring more shoppers
downtown and into your friends and neighbor's businesses. We want to create an atmosphere that is fun, exciting and inviting to folks driving through our downtown and will encourage our local shoppers too!
As many businesses as possible will put up a pop-up tent awning in front of their shops. We want a lot of color and attention grabbing activity and create a bazaar atmosphere. Shops will be moving their summer stock to make room for fall and Christmas, showcasing new items, food items to entice
passersby or informational packets to share business info. We also hope to have some of our businesses from outside the downtown setting up on the street to join in the fun.
Let's put on a good show with lots of participation and energy. Have fun, buy some great stuff and save some money!! Grab a bite or a sip on a toddy and chat up your neighbors in our evolving new streetscape.

Lewis writes for Universal's Asian territories and has had songs recorded by independent artists in the U.K, Japan, Korea and the U.S. Together, their song 'Widow of the Mountain' was recently released by the Price Sisters on Rebel Records and the duo is currently writing music for a new play by Vermont playwright Elaine Davida Sklar.

Monica Rizzio washes into Brandon
At Brandon Music on
October 20.
Monica Rizzio grew up on a ranch, barrel racing in East Texas. Somehow, many years later, she found herself crossing over the iconic bridges of Cape Cod and seeing the ocean for the first time. The versatile performer now calls Cape Cod home and her album 'Washashore Cowgirl' is completely autobiographical, telling stories from that journey from Texas to the Cape.
The singer-songwriter has become one of the most reliable supporting acts as well, having shared the stage with Chris Botti, Boz Scaggs, Diana Krall, Joan Osborne, and Slaid Cleaves this past year. She also performed with Tom Rush, but as Rush says, "I made the tactical error of inviting Monica Rizzio to share the stage with me at Symphony Hall and she went and stole the audience right out from under me!" Rizzio has also played the Main Stage at Strawberry Park Bluegrass festival the past two years and is a frequent collaborator with the Cape Cod Symphony Orchestra.
Concert at 7:30pm. Concert tickets are $20. A pre-concert dinner is available for $25. Reservations are required for dinner and recommended for the show.Venue is BYOB.

Mongolian Culture Performance at
Otter Valley Union Middle and High School
Tuesday, October 23rd-7:00pm OV Auditorium
"The vast steppe of northern China has nurtured a brilliant and unsophisticated grassland culture including the arts of the nomadic "horseback people" who reside on the steppes."
Students and teachers from the Inner Mongolia Arts University, a college devoted to the preservation of the unique treasures of this nomadic culture will bring their arts to life in a performance at Otter Valley Union High School at 7:00 P.M. on October 23, 2018. The event is free and open to the public.
The brilliant, colorful costumes, exotic dance, and unusual and unique instrumental and vocal sounds will captivate audience members of all ages. Young girls will leave mimicking the dance moves and people will be trying to figure out how the sounds coming out of the singer's throats are possible!
The program will include Mongolian throat singing (Hoomei), "one of the world's most amazing art forms because of its overtone singing, where the vocalist utters two simultaneous voice parts by tightening the larynx.' College students will demonstrate, mixing high and low pitches that imitate natural sounds.
The musical expression of the vastness, stillness and solitude of the grasslands will be communicated in Mongolian long tone singing "Mongolian Long tone singing, recognized by UNESCO with the title "Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity," requires the singer to have a marvelous voice with an extraordinarily long range because the melodies reflect the spirit of the vast grasslands
"Horses play a vital role in Mongolian people's lives and are viewed as creatures with honest and noble temperaments." The horse head fiddle is named for the elaborately carved horse-head on top of the instrument's neck. The strings of the fiddle are made with braided horsehair, as are the fibers of the bow. It is said, "the melodious horse-head fiddle music is more expressive and appropriate in depicting and recalling life on the grassland than a painting. The performance of fiddlers in this group, will transport you to the grasslands where you will hear and feel the thunder of galloping horses!
"Moving is the essence of nomadic culture, which finds expression in the people's souls and in their body movements. The art of Mongolian dance is the best interpretation of the rhythm of life. Mongolian folk dance is closely related to their nomadic lifestyle of hunting and religious belief in sacrifices and rituals. "The dances performed by the female dancers in this ensemble will clearly show the Mongolian people's passion for life and the pursuit of happiness"
Admission is free! Contributions to the "Maple Scholarship for Arts Education" cheerfully accepted.

Snake Mountain Bluegrass,
live at Brandon Music
Saturday, October 27th
Seven Days
said it best: Snake Mountain's "toe-tapping tunes combine the best of modern and traditional bluegrass". With harmonies and songs that vary in tempo from "breakdown" to ballad, this popular Addison County group consistently puts on a fun show for everyone. Their upcoming concert at Brandon Music on October 27 will feature tunes from their new album, "For Keeps," as well as many traditional favorites.
Retired Middlebury College Professor, Gregg Humphrey, and Middlebury construction company owner, Connor, formed Snake Mountain Bluegrass about thirty years ago. At the time, both Humphrey (guitar and vocals) and Connor (banjo and vocals) were living near Snake Mountain and someone asked them what style of bluegrass they played. "Snake Mountain Bluegrass," was their immediate response and the name has been theirs ever since.
They are joined by Provin and Jacob Blumberg (bass). Provin is a graphic artist living in Poultney. Blumberg recently moved to Middlebury from Brooklyn. He works as a producer, mastering engineer and multi-instrumentalist
for Mason Jar Music with studios in Brooklyn and Nashville.
Concert at 7:30pm. Concert tickets are $20. A pre-concert dinner is available for $25. Reservations are required for dinner and recommended for the show.Venue is BYOB.

The Stephanie Stouffer Galleries open at Compass
The Compass Music and Arts Center has been showing the work of Stephanie Stouffer for over two years. The illustrations of the Vermont artist struck a chord with Edna Sutton, the co-managing partner of the arts center. After a chance meeting in 2016, Stouffer showed Sutton some of her original paintings and Sutton was in awe: "I couldn't get over the incredible sense of whimsy, the vivid imagination, and obvious love she puts into each piece." She then proclaimed "we have to exhibit this," and the rest, as they say, is history.
Compass is now the sole agent for Stouffer's original artwork, and also retails some of the commercial products which carry Stouffer's iconic designs. Visitors can browse galleries dedicated to Stouffer's 'everyday' collection and holiday and Christmas collections.
The original gouache paintings Stouffer created on illustration board is what is so special about what visitors will find in the Compass galleries. These small paintings - ranging from 6"x6" to approximately 11"x14" - are affordably priced and demonstrate the true talent of Stouffer. Her designs often depict traditional scenes, including iconic, recognizable symbols, as required by the commercial graphic design world, but it is her knack for turning these 'traditional symbols' into something fresh with her vibrant colors, decorative style and rich imagination that make them so special.
Stouffer is a rare bird in the art industry as a female artist. She is one of the few freelance artists to earn a living and also carve her place as an illustrative and decorative artist. For 35 years her designs were licensed to companies like Caspari, Certified International and Peking Handicrafts, appearing on mugs, tapestries, greeting cards, pillows, rugs, and much more. Viewers of her work often realize they have purchased a Christmas greeting card, trivet, or any particular item in the past, adorning one of her designs.
The Compass Center is open Monday - Saturday from 10:00am-5:00pm and
is located in Park Village at 333 Jones Dr. Brandon VT, 05733 (Park Village used to be the Brandon Training School, located 1.5 miles north of downtown Brandon off of Arnold District Rd.).

OPERA at-a-glance: the latest exhibit at the Compass Music and Arts Center
Did you know that opera singers are basically Olympic athletes?
An opera singer has to be able to sustain high notes over a long period of time while using their body to amplify a sound so that it can be heard over a full orchestra and do so without any microphones. Opera singers show us the loudest sounds and the highest pitches the human body can produce. It takes many years before someone can audition to be cast in a professional company. This is one of the facts you can discover by visiting the 'Opera at-a-glance' exhibit in the Compass Music and Arts Center.
The Center is also providing a listening room where visitors can relax and sample different operas and hear the astounding voices of such great opera singers as Luciano Pavarotti and Renée Fleming.
The history of recorded sound is a further strength of the Compass Center as it hosts the Phonograph Rooms. Part of the exhibit will be devoted to how recording helped to popularize opera for all to enjoy.
The Compass Center is celebrating the world of opera with this exhibit to launch the
collaboration between the Compass Music and Arts Foundation and BARN OPERA and its founder and artistic director Josh Collier who is an internationally acclaimed opera singer. Th
e Foundation, through the new BARN OPERA venture, is organizing performances of loved operas through 2018 and beyond.
The Compass Music and Arts Center is located in Park Village at 333 Jones Dr. Brandon VT, 05733 (Park Village used to be the Brandon Training School, located 1.5 miles north of
downtown Brandon off Arnold District Rd.).

The $5.00 and $25.00 certificates are legal tender and handled just like a check. You take the Brandon Green and give your customer change back, just like cash or a check. Then you deposit the Brandon Green into your account, just like a check. Simple and supportive of all our members.
