Armstrong papers, the Gorsline-Inner Banks Trust and the Gheeraerts Portrait of Queen Elizabeth I; Inner Banks Arts Town, Swan Quarter; the North Carolina Literary Review, which publishes its 2010 issue and hosts the Seventh Eastern North Carolina Literary Homecoming; a Celebration of Roots Music at the Museum of the Albemarle; Inner Banks News and more!

B. Fisk Organ at Greenville’s St. Paul’s Church; in a new column, the IBX Gourmet, Ralph Scott reviews Kinston’s Chef and the Farmer restaurant; Dr. Ruth Kempf, practitioner of Biodynamic Agriculture, is profiled by Diana Dalton; Blackbeard and his pirate crew invade the Museum of the Albemarle; and “IBX Lifestyles” publisher Harvey S. Wooten remembers our friend—and champion of education—Kathy Taft.
Also, in IBX News, UNC’s Kenan Institute and Kenan-Flagler Business School take the lead in two far-reaching Inner Banks economic development initiatives: Hertford waterfront redevelopment and the Northeast IBX broadband initiative.
Inside: In this issue, Inner Banks film, fiction and more. We are pleased to present short stories by three talented Inner Banks writers: Erica Plouffe Lazure, Brian Lampkin and Dean Marshal Tuck. Also, “IBX Lifestyles” celebrates the work of three successful IBX film productions, two on the wildlife sanctuaries at Lake Mattamuskeet and Pungo Lake as well as a documentary on one man’s struggle to invent a new career for himself in “Beyond Burlington.” There’s much more: Emerge Gallery and Art Center; Swan Quarter; ChooseAneed.org; Long’s Brigade, a Civil War Tour; and, Inner Banks news and tourism information.
Finally, we honor the memory of Inner Banks scholar, teacher, leader, friend, gentleman and literary visionary, W. Keats Sparrow. In our opinion, no single person has played a deeper and more meaningful role in nurturing and inspiring the culture and arts of eastern North Carolina. His spirit, intelligence, wit, tenacity and grace under fire will be sorely missed.
