What’s HappeningAround Town?PCA Receives BAMA Grant

The Charlottesville Area Com-munity Foundation (CACF) recently awarded Piedmont Council for the Arts (PCA) an $8,000 grant through the Bama Works Fund of Dave Mat-thews Band in the CACF. This Fund supports charitable programs in the Charlottesville area with particu-lar focus on disadvantaged youth, needs of the disabled, protection of the environment, and the arts and humanities.

PCA will use the funding from the Bama Works Fund of Dave Matthews Band in the CACF to support an up-coming series of exhibitions featur-ing the work of guest artists working with under-served youth. Each guest artist will design a workshop curricu-lum within his or her artistic genre and artwork will be exhibited in the CitySpace Gallery, a state-of-the-art downtown exhibition space owned by the City of Charlottesville and managed by PCA.

The exhibitions series, entitled “Arts Inspire: Telling Charlottesville’s Stories,” will build on PCA’s success-ful Arts Access Project (AAP) and will link to Charlottesville’s 250th Anni-versary Celebration, themed “A Year of Stories.”

This project was designed in re-sponse to issues that community stakeholders raised in PCA’s Cre-ative Conversation roundtable dis-cussions as well as the AAP’s arts leadership development program (Arts Lead). Low-income citizens in Charlottesville have reduced par-ticipation in the arts for a variety of reasons, including lack of early ex-posure to the arts, lack of arts lead-ership and encouragement, and lack of resources.

This project will benefit middle-school-aged youth living in low-income areas of Charlottesville by providing them with hands-on arts experiences led by professional art-ists. It will also share their artis-tic work and experiences with the broader community, providing them with recognition and encouragement to participate in the arts.

PCA is the designated arts agency of Charlottesville and Albemarle, with outreach to surrounding coun-ties. Established in 1979, PCA now reaches over 150,000 people annually through programs and support ser-vices for artists, arts organizations, and their audiences. PCA encourages community-wide access to and ap-preciation for the arts. Images of the CitySpace Gallery are attached.

For more information about PCA’s programs and services, please visit http://www.charlottesvillearts.org.

They call it First Night in a spirit of optimism, not irony. It’s the last night of the old calendar year, but the night when new hopes lead to new opportunities. It’s a night when kids can stay up late and parents can choose from a couple of dozen enter-tainment options on the cheap, like this year’s big screen broadcast of the University of Virginia Cavaliers foot-ball team in the Chick-fil-A Bowl. It’s a 30-year Central Virginia tradition, a family-friendly, alcohol-free New Year’s Eve celebration on and around the heart of Charlottesville, the red-

bricked Downtown Mall. And it’s a whole lotta fun.

This year’s bash will feature over 50 performances, events and activity op-portunities in 11 hours, beginning at 1:00 p.m., two hours earlier than pre-vious revels, and ending with a laser show at midnight. Think of it as the kickoff party for Celebrate 250, Charlottesville’s y e a r - l o n g 2 5 0 t h anniver-sary cele-bration.

The fun starts with the first annu-al First Night 5k run, a five-kilome-ter race beginning and ending at the Charlottesville Pavilion on the east end of the mall. Runners and walkers are both welcome, with or without dogs and strollers, and all partici-pants will receive a “First Night Vir-ginia 5K” shirt. Awards will be given to top finishing men, women and children. Registration is open until 10:00 a.m. on the day of the race at $25 for individuals, $30 on race day. Families get a discount rate of $20 a person, $25 on race day.

The Virginia Discovery Museum will offer free admission with a First Night wristband from 1:00 to 8:00 p.m. The Discovery Museum will also have maps and clues available for a treasure hunt sponsored by the Albemarle Charlottesville Historical Society. Main Street Arena will of-fer half-priced admission for skat-ing fans with First Night wristbands from 5:15 p.m .to 1:00 a.m. Eight lo-cal art galleries will also be open.

Hungry First Nighters will have their choice of vendors including Carpe Donuts, The Lunchbox, Last Call Dogs, Dan’s Food and the Whole Foods vending truck.

Kid FestKid Fest in the Omni Hotel ball-

room from 1:00 to 5:45 p.m. will fea-ture face painting, juggling, magic, balloons and a Bounce and Play in-flatable. Creation Station will offer crafts, and Triple C Camp’s Green Adventure Project will have a camp-site display and a touch tank where kids can pick up a snake skin and feel a turtle shell. At 5:45 p.m. performers and staff will join kids for the annual Kids Processional, a march down the mall to the Pavilion replete with noisemak-ers and party hats, and a stop along the way for best video op of evening, the Bubble Wrap Stomp.

Charlottesville Ballet’s Nutcracker Suite is a 45-minute interactive perfor-mance specially de-signed to introduce young audiences to the beloved Tchai-kovsky classic. The dancing will

t a k e

place at the Herman Key Rec Center at 1:00 p.m.

Barefoot Puppet Theatre tells world folk tales, classic tales with a twist, and their own original sto-ries to young audiences in theaters, schools, libraries and children’s mu-seums up and down the East Coast. They’ll put on a show with hand-crafted puppets, sets and scenery at CitySpace at 3:30, 4:45 and 6:45 p.m.

Buffalo Bill will bring his one-man Wild West Extravaganza and Revue, and his “world famous persona” to Grace Covenant Church 4:45, 6:45 and 8 p.m.

Teen ExtremeBig kids – 10 and older – will have

a chance to ditch parents and younger siblings and cut loose at Teen Extreme in the Herman Key, Jr. Rec Center, with its Ultimate Adrenaline Rush obstacle course, 22-foot Roaring River Slide, and mechanical bull. They can even beat on each other with oversize boxing gloves in the Big Glove Boxing Ring. Teen Extreme will be open from 3:30 p.m. till midnight.

Magic and ComedyMonkeys in the House is a family

show by John Hadfield with origi-nal music, comedy, magic and jug-gling tricks. The monkey business will be happening at Grace Covenant Church 1:00 and 2:15 p.m.

Captain Shiny Pants juggles, per-forms magic tricks, and sings funny songs along with first mate robot bird Nelson Beakley and Soupy Seal. They’ll be silly at Grace Covenant Church at 3:30 p.m.

Master juggler and comedian Mark Nizer will be playing First Night for the fourth time since mov-ing to town in 2000. Nizer says his audiences should expect the impossi-ble. The Los Angeles Times says he’s

“one of the best practitioners of the art.” He’ll show his

stuff at the Paramount Theater at 4:45, 6:45

and 9:15 p.m.“Digital dexteri-

ty,” “cunning sleight of hand” and “a charming personal-

ity” – that’s what to expect from magician

HistoryThe first First Night was held in

Boston in 1976. Charlottesville and Worchester, Massachusetts followed suit in 1982, and soon these commu-nity-wide, no-alcohol celebrations were being held all over the country and overseas.

A Charlottesville resident named Nancy Rudolph attended Boston’s inaugural First Night, envisioned a similar event on the mall, and brought the idea to the Piedmont Council for the Arts. Partnering with Downtown Charlottesville, Inc., Darden Towe of

the Virginia Chamber of Commerce, Colin Ross of WINA, Kate Punch, marketing director for Ash-Lawn, and Rudolph herself, they booked Lou DeWitt of the Statler Brothers as the featured performer, and sold admission buttons for a mere $3.

“We had 3000 buttons,” council member Sandra Levine remembers, “and we said if we can sell 1500 we’ll feel pretty good about it.” They sold them all.

“It was a very balmy evening, for-tunately, because we had things go-ing on outside in Jackson Park and Lee Park,” Levine says. “There were no special events for children so ev-erything was available to families. And they came. They came in droves! It was really exciting to be outside, and then at midnight the fireworks went off and people just sort of gath-ered. It was an amazingly communal experience.”

The whole event was relatively inex-pensive according to former executive director Chris Eure. “You had artists performing for peanuts, basically be-cause most of them couldn’t get a gig on New Year’s Eve or it was a smoky drunken gig and they didn’t want it. First Night offered them the opportu-nity to entertain in a family setting.”

Thirty years later, it’s still a fam-ily affair, and still an all-volunteer, non-profit production, funded this time by 31 Presenting Sponsors, 26 Community Patrons and a joint city-county grant. Five thousand people bought admission wristbands last year, and an estimated 7000 people thronged the mall. 2011 sales look even better. “I think we’re ahead of schedule,” says Cindy Adams of Car-pet Plus, First Night’s chief sponsor this year and last.

AdmissionWristbands for admission to First

Night may be purchased online at http://www.firstnightva.org/index.php/howto at $15 for adults and $5 for children ages 6 -15. Family Packs for two adults and two kids are $35. Prices rise slightly on December 31, when they will be available at the Omni.

All events are general admission only with no reserved seating, except for the Mark Nizer and Bone Hamp-ton shows at the Paramount, for which tickets must be purchased at the Paramount box office or online at http://tickets.theparamount.net/eventperformances.asp?evt=118.

To register for the 5k run visit http://www.firstnightva.org/index.php.

First Night Virginia is a commu-nity effort. To volunteer go to http://www.firstnightva.org/index.php/vol-unteer or call 434-975-8269.

Social networking and media has become a part of nearly everyone’s life with sites such as Facebook.com, Twitter.com or Linkined.com.

Having an online profile allows for easy communication among friends, family and business associates. The sites create an almost intranet feel-ing experience where nearly all needs of the user can be met without leav-ing the social site. While many people understand that the act of surfing the web has a threat of identity theft, these cyber hangouts create a false sense of security that everyone is on there for the same reason—for social contact.

Identity thieves are on the search for any useful identifying information about a perspective user. Social Secu-rity numbers, date of births, present mailing address and phone numbers

are the prime information they are af-ter. This information does not have to be obtained from the same source, as they may store it in a database while continuing to gather a user’s overall identity profile from multiple sites and sources. This information can be used to create a credit facility in the user’s name without their knowledge and then max it out leaving the user to deal with the mess. Other informa-tion that may not seem critical can be used for other purposes, such as answering security questions to finan-cial institutions the user already has assets in or credit with. This informa-tion could be something as simple as the user’s dog’s name, the high school they attended or their mother’s maid-en name.

Information can be obtained from users who have little to no privacy security features turned on, which al-lows anyone with a computer to take a glimpse into their personal lives. Users should turn on the privacy features that restrict access to their information to only users and mem-bers that the profile owner knows and trusts with the access. Identity thieves have been known to create fake ac-counts and trying to befriend/follow/

link to users in an attempt to by-pass the privacy features the users have set and begin viewing information on their profile. Do not accept an invite from someone that is unknown to the user no matter what his or her profile picture may look like. These fake ac-count users may then send a message containing a link or file with the in-tent of infecting the computer with

spyware and/or malware. The link may also direct the user to a phishing website that emulates another website that requires the user to enter their username and password into. The phishing website will connect the user to their website and log them in while collecting their sign-in information along the way. Be sure to look at the top of the browser to confirm that the website’s address is the intended one. With the login information identity thieves can login and obtain all the in-formation that the user has uploaded to the site either in the profile, inside of messages, or in notes. Users also tend to use the same passwords for multiple sites or passwords that are similar. Identity thieves will try to use this login information to access addi-tional sites such as email accounts or to give their password cracking soft-ware an incredible head start.

Social websites, just like the rest of the Internet, is full of identity thieves that are on the lookout for easy tar-gets. Be mindful of what information is divulged onto social sites and that every possible security measure be taken. Being informed and proactive about security threats can be just as important and effective as having se-curity software. Couple an informed user with modern security software, and identity thieves are likely to move to the next potential target.
