In Case You Missed it. Cape Fear Concert Series
ELIZABETHTOWN – On Friday night, the picturesque Cape Fear Vineyard & Winery played host to an unforgettable sold-out concert experience. The Roots and Boots concert, presented by Campbell Oil Company, brought together country music enthusiasts from all corners of Bladen County and beyond to witness a lineup of legends in the industry. The crowd buzzed with excitement as they eagerly awaited performances from Aaron Tippin, Collin Raye, and Sammy Kershaw, with Bryan Mayer setting the stage ablaze as the opening act.
Drawing in an impressive 1,500 attendees, the event showcased the best of Southern hospitality and entertainment. Julius Wilson, Vice President of Hospitality and Sales at Cape Fear Vineyard & Winery guided in the concert enthusiasts with pride. The event sold out two weeks before the show date.
Bryan Mayer, the talented opening act, kicked off the show with his engaging stage presence. His hit song, “This is Me,” got the crowd to their feet. Mayer’s spirited performance set the tone for a remarkable night of country music celebration.
As the sun dipped below the horizon, it was time for the main event. Aaron Tippin, with an impressive record of 38 singles and three Number One hits, wasted no time in captivating the audience with his commanding stage presence and rich vocals. Tippin had the crowd singing along with gusto, proving that classics never go out of style.
Collin Raye, the master of heartfelt ballads, took the stage next. With four Number One hits and an impressive streak of 14 consecutive top 10 singles, Raye serenaded the audience with his timeless songs. The atmosphere was charged with emotion as fans relished the chance to hear country music gems live.
Sammy Kershaw, the charismatic showman, kept the energy soaring with his performance. His unforgettable number one hits transported everyone back to April 1993, reminding us why his music has stood the test of time.
One concertgoer summed up the night perfectly: “Well, well, well, wasn’t that show just a delightful explosion of talent? These guys really know how to put on a show, don’t they? I mean, their voices are still on point, and their personalities? Out of this world! I need another dose of their awesomeness.”
Roots and Boots was made possible by the generous support of sponsors like Johnson & Johnson Attorney’s At Law, PLLC, Minuteman Food Mart, Cape Fear Distillery, and White Dog Entertainment. Wesley Campbell, Event Sponsor from Campbell Oil Company, expressed the importance of being actively supportive of the community. Campbell said, “This is a good way for us to be active and supportive of the community. Alex does a great job here and we will continue to be supportive.”
As the night drew to a close, Alex Munroe, the owner of Cape Fear Vineyard & Winery, expressed his gratitude to everyone who attended and announced another exciting event on the horizon. Mark your calendars for September 16, 2023, when Uncle Kracker will be taking the stage at this local venue, ready to create more memories that will last a lifetime.
So, there you have it — Roots and Boots — a night to remember under the starlit skies of Elizabethtown. Cape Fear Vineyard & Winery, nestled at 195 Vineyard Drive, proved once again to be the perfect backdrop for a legendary evening of country music magic. Until the next concert rolls around, let’s raise our glasses and toast to the everlasting allure of great music, good company, and fine wine. Cheers!

ABOUT THE SHOW
American Modern Architecture Community
Columbus, Indiana
This book is the first comprehensive look at how architecture, design, and art have been used to foster the growth of one of America’s most important cities, Columbus, Indiana. With a wealth of never-before-seen archival material and nearly 100 first-hand interviews,
American Modern shows for the first time the remarkable story of how local industrialists, most notably the Irwin-Sweeney-Miller family, brought in world-class modern architects to create “the best community of its size in the country.”
Works from Eero Saarinen, I.M. Pei, Venturi Scott Brown Associates, John Johansen, Dan Kiley, and many others, demonstrate that Columbus is a living monument to the progressive ideals of postwar America and President Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society program of social change for all. The book draws out lessons about how civic leadership and public-private partnerships in the Columbus area played a unique roIe—and can be an example for cities worldwide.
Landmark Columbus Foundation is proud to present this defnitive book, which was inspired by the 2021 Bicentennial Celebrations of Columbus and Bartholomew County. Funding for this project has come from the generous support of Heritage Fund, Lilly Endowment Inc, Johnson Ventures, and the Columbus Area Visitors Center, who also support the production of this exhibition.
The Monacelli Press will publish this book in the spring of 2024.
Author Matt Shaw – a Columbus native – is a writer, editor, and educator. The former executive editor of The Architect’s Newspaper, his writing has appeared in the New York Times, The Guardian, Architectural Review, Domus, and Artforum.
The book features newly commissioned photography from Iwan Baan, a photographer whose work focuses on the intersection of architecture and the social fabric and has been published in books and periodicals internationally.
American Modern was designed by Studio Lin, a New York-based graphic design practice established in 2012 by Alex Lin. The studio focuses on long-term collaborations where graphic design can have a meaningful impact locally and internationally.
MORE ABOUT IWAN BAAN
Dutch photographer Iwan Baan is known primarily for images that narrate the life and interactions that occur within architecture. Born in 1975, Iwan grew up outside Amsterdam, studied at the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague and worked in publishing and documentary photography in New York and Europe.
Iwan Baan’s love for photography goes back to his twelfth birthday, when his Grandmother gave him his first camera. After his studies in photography at the Royal Academy of Arts in The Hague, Baan followed his interest in documentary photography, before narrowing his focus to record the various ways in which individuals, communities and societies create, and interact within their built environment.
With his combined passion for documentary and space, Baan’s photographs reveal our innate ability to re-appropriate our available objects and materials, in order to find a place we can call our own. Examples of this can be seen in his work on informal communities where vernacular architecture and placemaking serve as examples of human ingenuity, such as his images of the Torre David in Caracas – a series that won Baan the Golden Lion for Best Installation at the 2012 Venice Architecture Biennale.
With no formal training in architecture, his perspective mirrors the questions and perspectives of the everyday individuals who give meaning and context to the architecture and spaces that surround us, and this artistic approach has given matters of architecture an approachable and accessible voice.
As the inaugural recipient of the Julius Shulman award for photography, today, architects such as Rem Koolhaas, Herzog & de Meuron, Zaha Hadid, Diller Scofidio & Renfro, Toyo Ito, SANAA and Morphosis turn to Baan to give their work a sense of place and narrative within their environments. Alongside his architecture commissions, Iwan has collaborated on several successful book projects such as Insular Insight: Where Art and Architecture Conspire with Nature, Torre David: Informal Vertical Communities and Brasilia & Chandigarh – Living With Modernity. Baan’s work also appears on the pages of architecture, design and lifestyle publications such as The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, Architectural Record, Domus, Abitare and Architectural Digest.
Iwan Baan was named one of the 100 most influential people in contemporary architecture world by the magazine Il Magazine dell’Architettura on occasion of their 100th issue.
Iwan Baan is recipient of the AIA Stephen A. Kliment Oculus Award.
Lisa Taliano Exhibit
Material Entanglements: Bodies and Borders
by Lisa Taliano
“The paintings in this show are a physical means to grapple with a theoretical shift in the conception of materiality that requires us to rethink our understanding of what it is to have a body. They are engendered by a way of thinking and feeling that recognizes embodied beings as enmeshed in the material world in such a way that we can’t separate ourselves from it. Bodies and places are continuous. The material world does not just surround us, it moves through us. Our bodies are not enclosed capsules, they are radically open to the wider environment. The material world dynamically crosses through us, transforms us and is transformed by us. We are not bodies on the earth, we are on the earth. Our bodies are part of the living earth, and therefore the damage we do to the earth is damage we do to our bodies.
This viewpoint rejects the notion of bonded individuals and decenters the human subject. These paintings are a way of exploring new forms of subjectivity that go beyond the individual through affect and performativity. In making this work I ask myself – are there forms of subjectivity that go beyond thinking of myself as an individual? Forms of subjectivity that open me up to include my surroundings, that allow me to identify with the larger body of the earth?”
Lisa Taliano is an artist who lives and works in New York City. Her paintings are an investigation into the ecological condition that recognizes bodies and places as continuous, exploring the porous nature of bodies and the wider environment through the tension between abstraction and representation by means of affect and performativity. Taliano has exhibited her paintings in the US and abroad. She is currently being represented by Jacquelyn Sterling, Dallas TX. Her interest in the geological formations of the Southwest took her to Mustang Studio, Santa Fe, NM as an annually guest from 2017-2022. She was an artist-in-residence at Arte Studio Ginestrelle, Assisi, Italy in 2017 and 2018. In addition to painting, Taliano has recently opened her studio practice to include art as creative research. She is working on a trans-disciplinary, socially engaged, ecological art project – Porous Bodies, Toxic Kin. This art/science/philosophy project puts into practice feminist materialist concepts to think with and through toxic chemicals as a means to engage with the citizens of a rural town to take action against corporate polluters.
Taliano received an MFA in Painting from Boston University in 1994. Before becoming a painter, she studied Philosophy at SUNY Buffalo (BA 1987) and Indiana University, Bloomington where she received an MA in Philosophy in 1992 completing a Master’s Thesis on the relationship between ethics, aesthetics, philosophy and painting through a comparative analysis of the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche and the paintings of Vincent Van Gogh – The Tragic Affirmation of Life.
A lecture and opening reception will be held on Thursday, September 14th from 6:30-8:30 pm. The lecture will begin at 6:30 pm. The exhibition will run from September 11th – October 20th.
The gallery is open Monday through Friday from 9:00 am – 5:00 pm.

Frequently-asked questions
What can I expect from a Paintvine event?
Most importantly a FUN and CREATIVE evening. Your experience will start by arriving and checking in at the venue 10-15 minutes beforehand. Grab yourself a drink and apron from the bar, find your seat, socialise with your peers and get comfy before the session starts. We provide you with everything you need to complete your painting and one of our skilled artists will take you step-by-step through the featured painting of the session. Best of all, there is no experience required and all Paintvine events are judgement free. After two hours of painting, drinking and laughing, you will have a completed your masterpiece that you get to take home with you! We also take photos throughout the night which we post to our social pages (Facebook, Instagram etc.) and no cleaning at the end of the night, we take care of all that.
How much is it and what’s included in my session?
All Paintvine events vary and the current price is on the event itself. We provide all the necessary directions and guidance from one of our skilled artists as well as all painting supplies including canvas, paint, brushes and aprons. You also get to take your painting home at the end of the night (woohoo).
Do I have to paint the featured painting?
No way. The great thing about Paintvine is the freedom to create a unique painting of your own. You’re welcome to follow along with the artist or go your own way and create a one-of-a-kind. Add your own colours, shape, or textures to your painting to suit your home decor or personal preference, it’s totally up to you! You’ll be pleasantly surprised at how everyone’s paintings come out different at the end.
What should I wear?
We provide aprons that should protect you, but after a few glasses of wine and a whole lot of fun, you might find paint in unexpected places. We recommend wearing clothes you don’t mind getting a drop or two of paint on.
Do you hold group or Corporate events?
Yes, absolutely. Simply send us an email to [email protected] and one of our team will arrange a suitable time and venue for your needs. A Paintvine event is great for any occasion.
What is your no-show or cancellation policy?
