The issue spotlights the businesses and institutions that give Clarksville its character, among them Barbee's Studio of Photography — a longtime local studio whose work would grace many of the magazine's pages over the years — and Betsy's Quiltin' Barn, a haven for the area's quilters and crafters.

“Clarksville Montessori Children's House” introduces families to the Montessori approach to early education, giving parents a look at one of the schooling options available to the community's youngest learners — the kind of education feature the magazine's readers valued.

“Beyond the Books” explores learning and enrichment past the classroom, encouraging families to see education as a broader pursuit.

The recurring departments and photo pages round out a January number that opens the year by celebrating the local businesses, schools and craftspeople who make Clarksville a community worth calling home.

The recurring departments and photo pages round out a January issue that opens the year by celebrating the fabric of the community itself. Between a longtime photography studio, a quilters' haven, and a Montessori children's house, the number captures the local businesses, craftspeople and schools that give Clarksville its distinctive character. It is the characteristic warmth of a Clarksville Family issue, one that understands a community is not an abstraction but a collection of the particular people and places that serve it. As the new year begins, the issue invites readers to appreciate — and support — the homegrown institutions they might otherwise pass by every day.
