Good music, an ice cold beer and a mouthful of Felicia Suzanne's salmon deviled eggs.

What's not to "love" -- at Project Green Fork's third annual "Loving Local" fall fundraiser?

The Midtown Memphis non-profit will hold the fundraiser Sunday, Oct. 7, 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. at the corner of South Front St. and G.E. Patterson Ave.

The event kicks off with a bike ride from Victory Bicycle Studio, 2549 Broad Ave., to the fundraiser downtown. Ticket-holders can enjoy live music, bike swag, cocktails and some of the finest appetizers and dishes from Project Green Fork-certified restaurants Central BBQ, Fuel Cafe, Dog & Slaw, Huey's, Get Fresh Memphis, YoLo and Felicia Suzanne's Downtown.

Wayne Jackson, trumpeter of the renowned Memphis Horns, was honored on June 11 by Conn-Selmer, Inc., with a lifetime achievement award and as the first inductee into the company’s Hall of Fame.

The ceremony was conducted via Skype, with Jackson joining the Indiana-based audience from his Harbor Town home.

Laura Cupit, Memphis blues musician and Jackson friend, presented both awards.

“Big blue swirling clouds, a full moon, and bright shining stars fill the night sky that appears to keep watch over a peaceful little town,” are some of the thoughts that come to mind when viewing the oil on canvas painting Starry Nights by Vincent Van Gogh. Of course not everyone sees art the same way or thinks most artworks can measure up to the name Art. But most people would admit to having at least one artist they admire or a favorite piece of art that speaks to them in some way. The cherished piece of  art may evoke a certain feeling and jog a forgotten memory, or  take the viewer on an enchanted journey, or simply make them feel safe and at home. Artist Rollin Kocsis uses nature sprinkled with hints of abstract objects, intertwined with warm, rich, bright colors, to create and tell stories to the viewer and take them on a journey, with illustrations on oil on canvas and silk paintings.
