A few deliveries by horse and cart later, Floyd County artist Charlie Brouwer triumphantly secured a couple of much more cooperative logs in place using a huge zip-tie. Once he was satisfied with the arrangement, he planned to fasten the trees in place permanently with metal fixtures.

That was two and a half years ago. In November, Turner and his husband, Chuck Beatty, turned the napkin notes into a physical space in Covington. At Creative House of Art & Design, or CHAD, kids and adults can take art classes, and shoppers can buy handmade laser-cut jewelry and coasters featuring pop icons or funny sayings and pick up a monthly art kit to DIY their own masterpieces. Starting next month, customers can even stop by for a drink at the bar. ....

cutNscratch: Radford grad student sees success in international competitions


A Radford University classical guitar student has had a run of international success. In this COVID-19 era, of course, he did it without leaving Southwest Virginia.
Octávio Deluchi finished with 10 other performers atop the 2020 Ibla Grand Prize competition list. The New York-based IBLA Foundation organizes the event, which for about three decades has been a weeklong, summertime event in southern Italy for top-shelf musicians of all ages, locations and instruments. This year, the Ibla Grand Prize was relegated to the digital world, with winners announced Dec. 31.
The Outstanding Musician recognition, shared equally among the contestants, will eventually lead to a tour in Asia and the United States, at such venues as New York City’s Carnegie Hall and Tokyo, Japan’s Kioi Hall, Deluchi wrote in an email last week. ....
