4 Thursday, May 30, 2002 S|!l The University and Towns In Brief Vegetarian Restaurant To Close Thursday Pyewacket, a restaurant that has weathered many economic downturns, will be closing its doors May 31. The longtime Franklin Street resi dent, located at 431 W. Franklin St., was known for its varied vegetarian fare and unique atmosphere. The restaurant has been in operation for more than 25 years and has always operated outside the confines of stan dard business. Catherine Dowd, a one-time employee of the restaurant, had high praise for the establishment and its management. “I worked (at Pyewacket) for about a year and a half in 1981. I’ve worked sev eral waitressing jobs, and I can say (owner) David Bacon is a lot more easy going and progressive than any other boss I’ve had,” she said. Dowd expressed sadness over Pyewacket’s imminent closing. “This was one of the only places where staff split tips. It was so progres sive but still had a real family feel,” she said. “It’s always been there; you just always assumed that it would still be there." Bacon could not be reached for com ment by press time. PASSPORT PHOTOS $10.95 While you wait. \ Lyr* C.O. COPIES 169 E.

R , , M y ; ■ V C faVorife ice creawi E mot vour ordinary r L oPem ,cE cREAM SHop/ r University & City PHOTO COURTESY OF SONIA KAI CHIAN Bv Brooks Firth Arts & Entertainment Editor High art and the Carrboro Farmers’ Market are not usually entities entangled with each other. But Chapel Hill resident and photographer Sonia Katchian has found a talent for and public interest in the combination with The Carrboro Farmers’ Market Photography Project Exhibited at The Arts Center in 1995, Katchian’s recent donation of color prints to the Archives Center of the Smithsonian Institution and her reception of a grant from the Orange County Arts Commission to create a related docu mentary has renewed interest in the pho tographs and their subjects, local farmers from the Carrboro Farmers’ Market. Living and working in New York City and Tokyo for a total of 31 years, Katchian admits that her urban back ground makes her an unlikely candidate for a project centering on agriculture. “I was always a city girl. It was initially not a logical involvement,” she said. “Here I plopped in rural North Carolina. I sup pose it was logical to eventually become involved with the agriculture here.” But it was Chester (pictured at left) who planted the seeds for The Carrboro Kudzu REALLY, PREACHER-IF / IME AM, IP HE'S ISEE-SOAWOE Poti'T you icw \ OURSIPE AND HE'S ) WSWttvTu TWBOuD&ffi I l-t>N T “THE AUTHOR OF ALL STRUCK OUT EvERy ” J -THtN6S,-THEN HE'S AT - WE LOSE?

Franklin St., Chapel Hi 11929-6551 J Farmers’ Market Photography Project in Katchian’s mind. “It was Chester the farmer who real ly triggered the idea,” she said. “I saw in my mind’s eye how I wanted to docu ment this farmer’s life. “He has a sense and an ability to tell stories unlike any other person I’ve ever met besides my mother. He is an acknowledged legend in our community.” A love for the man Katchian simply calls “Chester,” the town of Carrboro and the agricultural culture of North Carolina served as the inspiration and the basis for the project through its completion. “I was very grateful to have had a new beginning here in North Carolina, and I had an ability to convey visually that gratitude,” she said. “This would be a project that could act as a gift from me back to the people of Carrboro.” But as with any artist whose work has been completed, Katchian struggled to find a suitable home for the prints. “I had hoped someone from Carrboro, either the city or an individ ual patron, would come forward and purchase the collection for the city.” The Museum of Natural History also declined Katchian’s offer for purchase with the explanation that the museum 5 Soften 6 One of Frank's exes 7 Young guys 8 Pass without contact 9 Muttonchops 10 Lofting shot 11 Battery terminal 12 Distance run ner 13 Cozied up to 18 Segment of history 19 Singer Tori 24 Slow-mover 26 Cop’s route 27 Acorn droppers 28 Squandered 29 Fencer's sword 31 Cubs great Banks 34 Deep breath, say 35 Turn inside out 37 Child’s toy 38 Field of study 39 Tatum's dad 41 Hemingway's sobriquet 42 Fortified 47 Perfect prose 5 2 3 p DE~ p T 7 p no in 112 In ■ ' fail 1" “ - wat 28 3? 38 39 -11 .; jHpe “ 4^jMl4B 50 51 5?

It was then Katchian contacted Pete Daniel, curator of agriculture at the Smithsonian. He had seen the original exhibit of Katchian’s work at The Arts Center and had recommended it to the Archives Center and David Haberstich, head of photographic col lections at the Smithsonian. Katchian’s donation soon followed. Haberstich agrees that the pho tographs hold both significant artistic and documentary purposes. “I’m interested in photographers as artists,” he said. “And one of the things that (the Smithsonian) is interested in is all aspects of America. Agriculture and the social, cultural and economic condi tions of farmers fall into that category.” Now that work has begun on the doc umentary provided for by the Orange County Arts Commission grant, Katchian is looking forward to capturing Chester’s life on a different sort of film. Filming is set to be completed by the end of July. The Arts & Entertainment Editor can be reached at artsdesk@unc.edu. (C)2002 Tribune Media Services.
