Off to VCCA

posted in: The Film | 4

I’m off to the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts. I’ve been there twice before and it’s always been good to me.

Why am I going this time? To write. I’ve been working on the film all summer  and need a break. So I’ll spend the next three weeks working on the writing.

But I am also going because Jeff Stein told me to go.

Huh?

VCCA - the view from my windowIn September, I learned that Jeff Stein, AIA, president of the Cosanti Foundation, was coming to NYC in the fall and I was excited to interview him in front of the camera. But then the residency at VCCA came up. Jeff and I were coordinating dates and I was worried we’d miss each other. Finally, after a number of email exchanges, we worked it out and he signed off with:

“Get thee to Virginia, sir.”

How can I defy such an order? So, to Virginia I go.

    Ummm… the link says you’re actually going to the Vintage Chevrolet Club of America.

    If you’re gonna be in the Roanoke area at all, let me know! It would be cool to actually you meet you in person finally! I’ll treat you to a coffee. 🙂

    Or you could visit our last classic independent movie theatre, the Grandin. 🙂

      I’m glad someone is checking my work!

      I fixed it. Thanks a ton.

      I don’t think I’ll make it to Roanoke, but it’s nice to know that when I do (and I will!) they’ll be a friend there to have coffee with.
