In addition, the book was also printed in tucson. to order online, visit WoodandPulp.com

the Gloo factory prints everything from holiday cards, to bumper stickers, posters from local artists, buttons, Protect oak Flat t-shirts, customized projects and more. and something unique are its fair trade items.

“We have a unique collaboration with the DouglaPrieta Works, a women’s cooperative in agua Prieta, sonora. We sell locally for products sewn there,” said Dwight Metzger, owner and printer.

the fair trade items include tot bags, aprons, potholders and even bandanas. to personalize the gift, the shop offers the option of adding screen printing to the item.

the Gloo Factory is a union print shop. “We may not be the cheapest but we sell at a reasonable price to give employees a reasonable wage. We are conscious about how we source our materials. It is important to us to be active in the community promoting values that make life better here,” said Metzger.

local wildlife, art, fun and learning are all combined into one. Julie Rustad has taken her art experience as well as her years of being a mother to create the Desert Dwellers.

“I came up with the idea when syver (Rustad’s son), was one at the time, and was doing the aBcs. My son inspired me to come up with a better solution of learning that was fun and also included local wildlife,” said Rustad.

Desert Dwellers are flash cards that teach children the aBcs but instead of J for Jellyfish it is for javelina and instead of R for rhino it is for roadrunner. Each letter represents local wildlife and also gives interesting facts about the creatures.

the seven by four inch cards are $20 and can be purchased at Julieoriginals.com/desert-dwellers/ or at retailers such as the little Bird Nesting company, Barnes and Noble and even the tucson Visitor center.

“this is something you can bring to a restaurant or on a car trip and your kid is not staring at a screen. It’s an old school idea that is fun,” explained Rustad.

also keep a look out for Julie’s family band, the Nap skippers, who sing and perform for children, lending their voices to another fun and interactive way of learning.

Mast is an excellent hub where local designers sell their trendy and unique pieces, making it a top selection for “made in tucson” products. among the designers are the store’s owners, each one specializing in her own craft.

“Most of the pieces in the store are for woman who are fearless in their style,” said tasha Bundy, one of the owners who specializes in jewelry.

the black spinel mini bib necklace, created by Bundy, is a great gift for a trend-setter. It is a piece that is classy with an edgy side to it. the necklace is $88 and can be bought online or in the store.

“When you walk into the store you can expect to find thoughtfully hand crafted gifts made locally,” said Bundy.

a second accessory that helps make an outfit fashionable is the arrow cuff by owner and designer sofie albertsen. the cuff is made of sterling silver and hand carved. the bracelet is $175 and a timeless accessory that can be paired with jeans and a shirt or a special event dress.

the Rustic candle company on 4th avenue has candles that brighten up your room with color and light. While the store has an abundance of different scented candles it also specializes in “recycled candles”. “Why throw away your extra wax and add to a landfill?” said Monica cota, shop owner. the Rustic candle opens its doors to people with leftover wax from burned out candles. In return, the store offers money off future purchases. cota then takes the leftover wax and combines it with other discarded wax of all colors and fragrances to create a new candle. the recycled pieces are hand poured in a workspace at the shop. they range from three to four inches to as tall as 17 inches. the candles come in a variety of shapes such as stars, cylinders, and pyramids. the cost is anywhere from five to thirty dollars based on size, which is less than a normal candle because they are recycled. “It is a hodge podge. It is almost like a mosaic effect and no two are ever alike,” said cota. the candles can be bought at rusticcandle.net or at the Rustic candle com-pany shop located at 324 North 4th ave.

Kuumba Made (made in tucson) was created out of love for the botanical world. the Kuumba Made brand embodies a back to basics, ancient wisdom philosophy.

Pictured right: Herbal First aid – 6 powerful salves formulated to be effective, safe and gentle enough for children. they are made by hand in small batches with 90 to 98% certified ingredients. these herbal infusions are made in an olive oil base to ensure excellent skin absorption.

Don Guerra, the owner, founder and baker for Barrio Bread, has always been conscientious about health. Guerra, who at one time was a P.E teacher now bakes over 800 loafs of bread a week! But what makes his bread truly special and delicious is the technique.

“I use wild yeast and go back to primitive techniques with no sugar, no oils, to achieve a more nutritious taste, “ said Guerra.

the wheat is fermented for long periods of time which Guerra says makes the bread more nutritious and easier to digest. He even feels his technique helps with gluten sensitivities. the bread has a 45 to 50 percent local grain component.

some of Barrio Bread’s tasty treats are rye breads, local grain breads which are seeded and crusted, and of course sour dough bread. a great loaf to bring to any holiday party is the delectable fruit breads, cranberry walnut bread or raisin pecan. the breads can be eaten as plain toast with just a little bit of butter, used as sandwich bread, or paired with cheese spreads, jam, or wine.

For a list of places where you can purchase this tasty and healthy bread visit BarrioBread.com.

Slow Your Rollby Phoenix Michael

taKE a chill pill. Unplug and unwind. Disconnect to connect. However you phrase it, the sentiment remains the same. Fatigued by extreme tech-nological overload, and having realized that many of their shiny devices which were designed to increase and improve human communication are in fact having the opposite effect, savvy folks are stopping to smell the roses again. our future is history. the book is the new blog.

snapchat this. Instagram that. tag, post, tweet. Finding some relief from today’s fast-paced society of seemingly-endless status updates, the 24-hour news cycle and high-tech everything is becoming a matter of spiritual survival. If you’ve been feeling bombarded by blogs and flus-tered by Facebook lately, you aren’t alone. amy smith, self-described bookworm and owner/manager of coffee specialist Exo Roast co., 403 N. 6th ave., gets it. and in cooperation with craft beer and wine tasting room tap + Bottle next door, she’s doing something about it.

tucson analog Hour, held from 1-3 pm on the third sunday of each month simultaneously at both locations, is former middle school teacher smith’s response to the relentless speed of modern society. During those two hours all cafe and bar patrons are encouraged to put aside their laptops and mobile phones in favor of reading novels, drawing pictures, holding conversations and playing board games. How did such an event come about? “We both have noticed,” says smith of herself and her hus-band, “how much time we’ve given to our screens. We’re dismayed,” to the point where she now appreciates “taking time off.” although she’s never been “anti-wifi,” smith has only one electrical outlet available for public use at Exo.

Before each tucson analog Hour begins smith goes around Exo’s tables and explains the purpose of the event to her customers, warning them that there will be no wireless signal for a period of time. “It’s ironic that it used to be a novelty to find the Internet” at a cafe, she says, yet now “we almost need to be forced to indulge in reading.” Designated wifi-free times have become “a trend in third-wave coffee shops,” according to smith, which “feels fun.”

this writer arrived at tucson analog Hour carrying the November 2001 issue of Mad Magazine and ordered “the Possum,” an espresso pulled in hot water with a touch of chocolate in a 4-ounce tumbler glass. chamomile tea and pie were also on the menu. an lP record played from behind the counter. two women sat across from each other using watercolors. tucsonan amber clark, 36, was “sneaking in a few cafe sketches.” over at tap + Bottle, singles were making eye contact instead of checking tinder.

on the sidewalk outside, people helped themselves to complimentary reading material from the Pima county Public library’s Bookbike. smith credits librarian Karen Greene with providing the impetus for tucson analog Hour, and says that upon introduction of the concept “I loved it immediately.” Greene says she “saw it happening in a couple other cities” such as seattle and Brooklyn, and subsequently “we started it as an experiment.” carrying a copy of The New York Times Cross-Country Crosswords: 150 Medium-Level Puzzles, Greene says she enjoys the “juxtaposition” created by the “tech-free zone”: “You don’t expect to walk into a bar and see people reading books.” It’s refreshing, she’s noticed, to see people “coming here with a purpose,” to “turn off the tech.” Greene also approves of the Usual Gang of Idiots: “I love Mad Magazine!”

looking to go 45 rpm in a 4G world? Make a date with yourself to read! tap + Bottle and Exo Roast co. present tucson analog Hour on sunday, December 20 from 1-3 pm at 403 N. 6th ave. a portion of pro-ceeds will be donated to the southern arizona-based literacy organiza-tion Make Way For Books.

The Fox Turns 10!(Or 86, depending on what you’re counting)by Herb Stratford

DEcEMBER 31 marks the 10th anniversary of the reopening of downtown’s premiere performance venue, the Fox tucson theatre. Given the dramatic transformation of downtown tucson that’s been ongoing over the same period of time, it’s hard to believe that the Fox was home to scores of homeless people from 1974-1999 when the efforts to restore the theatre began in earnest. I had the pleasure of leading the Fox project from its inception, from the purchase of the building in 1999, to the raising of the needed funds and the oversight of the restoration and reopening in 2005, as well as managing the theatre’s operation from 2006-2008.

the small group of volunteers that gathered in a conference room, in the Unisource Energy tower offices of law firm snell & Wilmer back in 1997 knew the Fox had to be saved, but didn’t know how long it would take or how much money would be required. We had all been watching the glorious structure slowly decay from the outside, and a recent trip inside, thanks to property man-ager Buzz Isaacson, had spurred us to action due to the failing roof, increasing graffiti and other vandalism. a non-profit organization was set up quickly and a post office box secured to receive donations while we planned the next steps. after a year of work we had secured the purchase of the Fox for an ironic sum, $250,000. this was the same amount of money that had been quoted 10 years earlier to the then-owners as a cost to demolish the building, which thankfully had been deemed too expensive. Extensive research, fundraising and business planning was now the order of business, along with frequent volunteer work-days that saw the eventual removal of over 20 dumpsters of material such old

carpet, plumbing fixtures, stage equipment and other debris. countless tours and special events kept the public aware of the progress in the theatre and built up interest in tucson’s largest historic preservation project to date.

through a unique combination of; public contributions, historic tax credits, grants and loans, $14 million was secured in time for a spring 2004 start date for construction/restoration. Rio Nuevo and city of tucson’s financial support mandated that the Fox be open by the end of 2005, and the race was on to meet that deadline. a team of restoration experts from the acclaimed Ever-Greene Painting Studio of New York worked side-by-side with the construction contractor and architects to gently restore the original finishes, while updating and upgrading the Fox for modern audiences and performers all the way until the doors opened for one of the most memorable New Year’s Eve’s in tucson memory.

tucson is one of a handful of communities across the country that have saved and restored their historic theatres. these buildings were once the center of the community for entertainment, news and community events and thanks to restoration efforts will continue to have to have an important role in cities for decades to come.

Work is currently underway on an in-depth book about the restoration of the Fox that will also feature essays and stories about the project from a variety of experts who were involved.

R.I.P. Tucson Arts District Studiosa sMall slIcE of artistic heaven is scheduled to close its doors early next year after 17 years in the Warehouse District. the tucson arts District studios, located at 549 North 7th avenue, has been the home of an eclectic group of artists in a variety of genres over the years, with several tenants having been present since the very beginning. the studio closure is a classic example of gentrification that is sadly inevitable, but the longevity of this artspace is worth celebrating on the eve of its demise.

the studio project was established by the tucson arts District Partnership (taDPI)—an organization that was formed in the late 80’s to drive redevelopment downtown through arts programs and projects, and along with other programs like the initial iteration of Downtown saturday Night, thursday Night artwalks and the artist in Residence program, laid the groundwork for the current state of tucson’s thriving downtown. thanks to a 50% donation of the original purchase price of $500k, this former dental parts manufacturing facility and office space was purchased in 1997 by taDPI. a short and reasonably inexpensive build-out ensued to create 8 individual studio spaces that were ready for move-in in the spring of 1998. the original roster included 2 ceramic artists, a weaver, a photographer, painters and jewelry makers. this original group became almost “like a family,” according to weaver crane Day, the longest studio resident, who to this day has also become the archivist of the studio as well as unofficial “father figure, or as some call him, the “mother superior.”

Day always treated the studio project as his “home away from home” and was often acting as the de-facto property manager scheduling maintenance and buying supplies when needed. the studio often felt like a family to the him and other artists, which also speaks to the unusually low turnover rate in tenants. one benefit of working with a tight-knit group over time is the ability to get feedback and critiques on artwork without having to go very far.

the studios often hosted special events like the inaugural Urban Picnic, which was another program of taDPI that raised funds for the arts, and was also always open for the annual open studio tours each fall and spring. the main building sits on a large piece of property bounded by 7th avenue and 5th street, along with an older Quonset hut and garage that were also transformed into artspaces in the initial build-out on the edge of the West University Neighborhood. But what made the studios so attractive and successful is what also led to its eventual closure. the location, in the heart of the warehouse district and close to downtown only uses about 50% of the lot making it ideal for development for housing or other uses. the threat of this redevelopment has been hanging over the artists for years, and with the recent work on the final phase of the Barraza aviation Parkway now approved and scheduled to begin construction in 2016, the property owner has finally pulled the trigger on evicting the artists.

according to the dictionary, gentrification is “the process of renewal and rebuilding accompanying the influx of middle-class or affluent people into

deteriorating areas that often displaces poorer residents.” It’s common to add artists to the list of those being displaced as they often are the ones taking advantage of lower rents in locations where their presence eventually make an area attractive to others. the area adjacent to the studio property is also home to several art galleries including; Davis Dominguez Gallery, Baker Hesseldenz, Wood & Pulp and contreras Gallery, and one wonders how long the forces of capitalism will be held at bay. can trendy retail and restaurants spaces be on the horizon that will surely wreak havoc with the quiet neighborhood? only time will tell.

on the bright side, a group of the artists being displaced are searching for a new studio space nearby that will accommodate several of them so they can continue to work together. the challenge is that such spaces are few and far between, especially in the immediate area, and for reasonable rent. Part of the stated goals of the investment in the area by taDPI was that they were helping artists get established with the idea that artists would eventually be able to own their spaces, and not be priced out. this has sadly come to pass all too frequently.

Furniture maker scott Baker, is one half of the Baker Hesseldenz business and gallery in the tucson Warehouse building one block away, has also had a workshop at the arts district studios for the past 12 years. Baker echoed the feelings of family on site, even though his woodworking shop was in the adjacent Quonset hut. His needs for a large open space and 220 watt power make him unique among the other artists, but he seems to have found a new space fairly close by. Baker will miss the communal sense of the space, as he will now not be sharing space with any other artists, but is thankful for his run while it lasted.

tucson real estate developer Richard studwell has owned the property for about 10 years, and is planning on creating a housing project on the site according to several sources. His time line seems to be fluid, despite promising leases to several tenants who had been on month-to-month terms for years. It now sounds like the spring eviction will finally end the property’s time as one of tucson’s longest running art studios.

as the few remaining assets of the warehouse district get transformed by developers or torn down for the expansion of city transportation projects, the locations that remain, take on an even more important role in defining us as a community. the tucson arts District Warehouse studios was one of the special places that acted as a bridge in our journey to celebrate our past and our creative present, even if we don’t know where our future is taking us. n

(Note: Herb Stratford worked at the Tucson Arts District Partnership from 1996-1999 and was responsible for overseeing the construction and management of the studios project from its inception.)

Star Wars or Bust?What to Watch, Until You Get a Chance To See The New Filmby Herb Stratford

UNlEss YoU’VE BEEN living under a rock for the past 12 months, you know that a new Star Wars movie is set to debut worldwide on December 17. as expected, many of the screenings have been sold out for weeks in advance, or will do so the day of the show. there are high hopes for this latest installment in the series, as it promises to deliver the goods unlike the much-maligned prequels, but there are also a lot of other amazing sci-fi films that have a much lower profile just waiting to be discovered, if you don’t have a ticket or want to avoid the crowd for a few weeks. We’ve compiled a list of some that you may or may not have seen before, and where you can find them until you get to Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

SolariSthis 2002 version of the stanislaw lem novel about several space station oc-cupants orbiting a mysterious planet that causes them to go slowly insane, got mixed reviews, but many found it more accessible than the original 1972 Rus-sian version. Directed by steven soderbergh, and starring George clooney and Natascha McElhone, this film is amazing visually and truly thought provoking. (available on itunes)

JodoworSky’S dunethis documentary, from 2012 was widely praised as it made its way on the international festival circuit, but received just a limited theatrical run. It tells the story of the aborted film version of the masterful 1965 Frank Herbert sci-fi novel Dune by radical filmmaker alejandro Jodoworsky. With a trippy cast that was to include Mick Jagger, orson Wells and salvador Dali, along with visuals inspired by H.R. Giger (of “alien” fame), this film a fascinating look at what could have been, had the film moved into production. (available on itunes)

Galaxy QueStGreat sci-fi films are usually not great comedies too, but Galaxy Quest which was released on christmas day 1999, is in a comedy class all by itself. With

a stellar cast that includes tim allen, alan Rickman, sigourney Weaver, sam Rockwell and tony shalhoub, this film is the perfect send-up of traditional science fiction standards like the original star trek series and B-films of the 50’s. the film follows a hapless crew of an old canceled sci-fi tV series, that suddenly finds themselves in space. Endlessly quotable and hilarious, this one is a real keeper. (available on Netflix)

when worldS CollideBack in 1951, science fiction films had a radically different look and feel, and this classic melding of the end-of-the-world disaster film and science fiction fantasy is a real delight. When Earth must be evacuated due to an eminent collision with a newly discovered planet, tension mounts as a select group of earthlings wait to find out who will win the lottery to have a seat on the giant space ark that’s been secretly under construction. With an ill-fated love story, great special effects and models, this film still stands the test of time. (available on amazon Video)

QuarkBack in 1977-78, hoping to capitalize on the wild success of Star Wars, NBc aired a truly quirky sci-fi series penned by comedian Buck Henry entitled Quark. the show followed the exploits of an interstellar garbage truck and its crew in the year 2226. Richard Benjamin led an otherwise below-the-radar cast in this delightful, funny and short-lived sitcom. (available on DVD from amazon)

and let’s not forget other greats like the horror/sci-Fi hybrid Sunshine (2007), the much-loved tV & film combo Firefly/Serenity (2002 & 2005) and Disney’s answer to the late 70’s Star Wars/Star Trek successes, The Black Hole (1979), if you really want to spend some time in another world. so, if you can’t get to Star Wars: The Force Awakens, load these films into your amazon Video, Netflix, or itunes queue. n

In the spirit of giving this month, the loft cinema again has a great mix of films for you to escape to when you’ve had enough of the holidays or…. your family. In addition to a special screening of the holiday classic Elf on December 12, this month’s lineup features some great documentaries and narrative features. For the most current listing of all films showing this month and specific show times, visit loftcinema.com.

Janis: Little Girl Blue (12/4)this riveting and heartbreaking documentary, from director amy Berg (West of Memphis), perfectly cap-tures the tragic rise and fall of one of america’s most talented singers. With unprecedented access to family photos and letters, the film explores Janis’ story and will remind you why there will never be another artist like her.

The Resurrection of Jake The Snake (12/4)Fans of WWE wrestling are in for an eye-opening ride with this new documentary about one of the wrestling leagues’ marquee stars, Jake the snake Roberts. the film premiered at the annual slamdance film festival last January, and has been quietly building momentum ever since, thanks to its honest, and at times bit-tersweet, look at stardom, addiction and redemption. Who would have thought that a movie about a wrestler could teach us so much about the human spirit.

Heart of A Dog (12/4)From acclaimed artist/musician/filmmaker laurie anderson, comes this wildly entertaining, brilliant and thought-provoking experimental film on the nature of truth, information, love, loss and life. Hauntingly beautiful and quite frankly mesmerizing, this is a not-to-miss film, and one of the best things I’ve seen all year.

Don Verdean (12/11)From the creators of the comedy gems Napoleon Dynamite and Nacho Libre, comes a the film about a sketchy biblical archaeologist (Don Verdean) and his eclectic team. chaos and comedy ensue as they “find” and deliver rare historical items to the highest bidder. sam Rockwell is great as Verdean, and while the film is not as quotable or memorable as “Dynamite,” it’s a pretty fun ride.

Macbeth (12/18)the tale of ambition, murder and loss set in the scottish Highlands is on the big screen this month with a stellar cast including Michael Fassbender and Marion cotillard from australian director, Justin Kurzel. sweeping and grand in scale and visual ambition, this version is perfect for the big screen and its cast delivers engrossing performances that bring this timeless story to life for a new audience.
