“Art Link 2021” leads the issue, spotlighting the collaborative arts programming that brings Clarksville's creative community together and puts local artists in front of new audiences — a bright spot in a stretch when so many events had gone quiet.
“The Blank Slate” captures a distinctly Clarksville experience. It doesn't snow often here, the feature notes, so when it does it's a big deal — first you're thrilled at how beautiful it all is, then you want it gone, and mixing that with a pandemic makes for a peculiar kind of cabin fever, especially when two days later it's back to 67 degrees. It is a wry meditation on a strange winter.
“Local History: Making Shh Happen” digs into a piece of the city's past, the kind of deep local-history feature the magazine returns to each month to connect present-day Clarksville with the stories underneath it.
“Pet Corner: Caring for Exotic Pets” offers practical guidance for owners of the less-ordinary companions — reptiles, birds and beyond — whose needs differ sharply from a cat or dog's, alongside the issue's recurring Pet Pix.
The issue ranges from the arts to the weather to the archives to the animal kingdom, a characteristically wide March number that finds something worth reading in a quiet, snowbound, still-pandemic season.
The month's recurring departments round out the issue — the community calendar, the recipes, and the photo pages that capture Clarksville life — while the arts, weather, history and pet features give March its characteristic range. It is a quietly cheering issue for a snowbound, still-cautious late winter, finding color and warmth in a gray season. Even in a quiet, snowbound season, the magazine finds a full slate of stories worth telling, from the galleries downtown to the archives to the reptile tank in the corner of the living room.
