PORTRAIT OF A CITY - LEVOY ARTS & EDUCATION CENTER. I have had the privilege of photographing many performances by students of the Levoy Arts & Education Center. And I am always amazed by the quality of the productions, the direction & especially the talent of the young performers. Photo of Donna Terry by Bill Horin/ArtC. Story by Rob Laymon/ArtC.

Something important happens when you take regular people and add art to them.

You start with undifferentiated individuals, add a little artistic training, and suddenly you have dancers, musicians, actors. You have cascades of loveliness and fountains of beauty. Also, you have happy human beings.

They’ve been doing this at the Levoy Arts & Education Center for a long time, since the organization emerged as the educational branch of the Levoy Theater in 2016. The center’s office opened in 2021 on Pine Street, to host theatre, music, dance, and art courses, workshops, and performances for all ages and economic backgrounds.

Since then, the center has tripled its offerings to include more than 218 days of on-campus educational programming and 83 days of off-campus outreach per year. It has increased access to underserved populations, and established partnerships with more than half a dozen organizations. It has become a regional hub for youth arts learning.

In other words, the center is the heart of human flourishing for many people, young and old, in South Jersey. The magic has happened for many.

“It used to be that summers were busiest but now it’s year round,” said Donna Terry, in charge of educational outreach for the center. “We even do acting classes for adults. From birth to age 100 we offer classes.
“Part of my focus is outreach, so we go into local schools and help fulfill needs they may have in the arts. I do those five days a week. We ask what kind of enrichment they want, and what would meet their standards, and we are very sound in our planning, because we can meet a lot of those.”

So it goes with the arts in Millville, thanks to the Arts Center: ready to make magic wherever you are in South Jersey, and in life.

PORTRAIT OF A CITY - SOUL OF THE SEA. There are some really good places to eat in Downtown Millville. This is certainly one of them. Photo by Bill Horin/ArtC. Story by Rob Laymon/ArtC. Commissioned by Holly City Development Corporation

At Soul of the Sea, the comfort of classic soul food meets the briny freshness of the shore. Owner Sam Fowler's fusion of fried chicken with blue crab isn't just a menu gimmick—it's a reflection of his own journey: a second chance turned into a community touchstone on High Street.

“They just naturally go together,” Fowler says of his menu, a sentiment that also describes his blend of faith, food, and ambition.

Soul of the Sea, with its eat-in or take-out service, has been a busy addition to High Street, often crowded with the phone ringing non-stop. Best sellers are the Pork Chop Platter, Jersey Blue Clawed Crabs and Baked Mac and Cheese.
But Fowler has devoted his restaurant to a higher purpose that goes well beyond wings and dry rubs.

“I’m a Christian man,” he said. “I like giving people second and third chances. I have had a second chance myself and never looked back.”

To that end Soul of the Sea has played host to street revivals and Christian outreaches, and more such events are coming this summer, Fowler said. He considers himself “on assignment.”

Fowler, who grew up in Bridgeton and now lives in Vineland, makes many sauces and dry rubs from scratch, utilizing methods taught by his mom and grandmom. And yes, he has big plans.

“We’re going to be chain one day,” Fowler said. “That’s my vision, I want to start my own franchise.

“I’ve been doing it 23 years in four different restaurants. It’s been a rough ride and I’ve been through a lot of changes. I just want people to think good about the area, and that there is something good going on here. I wanted to be a light.”

It’s clear the light is shining.

PORTRAIT OF A CITY - CUMBERLAND CHIROPRATIC CENTER. From the minute you walk into Cumberland Chiropratic Center in Downtown Millville, you start to feel better, From the friendly greeting from Yvonne to the colorful decorations & well organized office, you just know you are in 'good hands'. Photo by Bill Horin/ArtC. Story by Rob Laymon/ArtC. Commissioned by HHolly City Development Corporation

Dr. Stephen Jackson has practiced chiropractic medicine long enough to count as a tradition himself.

The practice he took over in 1991 began in 1953, joining him to a legacy going back more than 70 years. That’s 70 years of hands-on treatment for the people of Cumberland County.

The secret to that longevity, at least in Jackson’s case? Staying small.

“We do it the way we want to.” said Jackson. “It’s just my wife and me and that’s it. At one time we tried to expand the practice, and tried having an associate here. But we lost touch with the patients.”

It turns out that staying in touch with patients has some notable benefits.

For one thing, in addition to the Myofascial Release, Lifestyle & Nutritional Advice, Sports Injury Treatments and other features of the practice, it makes everything personalized.

“These days we are the docs who have the most hands-on approach,” Jackson said, “which means that vets do well with us, and athletes.”

For another, it transforms your office almost into a social center. Patients often find the office decorated for the season, and conversations take place there.

“I feel people have a lot going on in their lives,” said Yvonne Jackson, office manager and Stephen’s assistant and wife. “So when they walk through our door I try to make them feel at ease. Patients expect that of me. I always say talking in the reception area is like therapy.”

Meanwhile, the kinds of patients and problems benefiting from chiropractic runs a sizable gamut.

“Every sort of person comes to us,” Stephen Jackson said, “including pregnant people, infants and children. And there are so many conditions that can benefit, everything from helping with posture and breathing, balance problems, children with scoliosis, vertigo, headaches. It’s a long list.”

PORTRAIT OF A CITY - MILLVILLE FREE PUBLIC LIBRARY. The recently renovated & expanded Millville Library is so much more than books. Check it out! Photo of Courtenay Reece by Bill Horin/ArtC. Story by Rob Laymon/ArtC. Commissioned by Holly City Development Corporation

Libraries are usually quiet places but maybe they shouldn’t be.

Maybe they should make noise about all the events and programming taking place there.

Walk into the Millville Public Library, for example, on just about any day of the week. You’re likely to see chess clubs in action, Dungeons & Dragons games, Storytime for young people, Play-Doh Play Time, and Yoga for Kids.

You’re likely to see book clubs, poetry workshops, events for seniors, and regular visits by a social worker during the library’s Family Seminar, to help parents manage children who might be on the autism spectrum.

You’ll encounter free internet access, printers, scanners, and all the tools that promote the acquisition of knowledge. This is in addition to the regular library functions like lending books, promoting reading and assisting with research.

“The library is the most democratic institution in any community,” says Library Director Courtenay Reece. “It welcomes all people regardless of age, race, background, political leaning and any demographic you can name.”

Reece has spent 10 years with Millville library, having started at another library as an assistant at age 14. Clearly, the library has a way of getting into you.

The visually impaired will find a link to the Talking Book and Braille Center, a division of the New Jersey State Library, located in Trenton. They will even find treats for their guide dogs if they have one.

“The library asks you nothing when you come in,” she says. “It’s the only place you can go where you receive services for free.”

So, yes, maybe the library should make more noise. It certainly creates a hubbub.

PORTRAIT OF A CITY - MANNY'S PIZZERIA. Millville is fortunate to have a great selection of pizza places to choose from & Manny's is one of the best. Photo of Manny Kanos by Bill Horin/ArtC. Story by Rob Laymon/ArtC. Commissioned by Holly City Development Corporation.

It’s safe to say Manny Kanos has mastered the art of pizza.

This is no small feat. Pizza—beloved, elemental, endlessly adaptable—is an art form as much as a meal. It can reach the sublime. It breeds aficionados. Kanos has worked in pizza since his first shop opened in 1992. He understands the seduction of it.

“You can’t go wrong with a slice of pizza in your hand,” says Kanos, who with his partner Victor Villar owns a second shop in Vineland. “It’s a universal food.”

Something happens when you bring pizza to a gathering. Suddenly it’s no longer a simple meeting but an event to be recalled even years later.

Today, at 426 North High Street in Millville, Kanos serves pizza in as many of its infinite variations as he can, consistent with keeping his approach grounded and practical. His restaurant seats about 20 people.

He makes his own dough every day. Though he himself likes a plain slice, the shop has produced some pretty exotic creations. Thanksgiving pizza? With turkey and stuffing? Of course! He employs four full-timers and about 10 part-timers.

“I went to college for a marketing degree and when I graduated, nothing enticed me,” he says. So he opened his shop.

His menu also includes wings, subs, cold sandwiches, wraps, burgers, steaks, clubs, desserts and all the items that make up a restaurant powerhouse.

“I like to keep my customers happy,” Kanos says. “I wouldn’t be around this long if I didn’t care. Money comes with people being happy. If the environment is happy, everyone is happy, and the situation prospers.”

After more than three decades in the business, Kanos knows success isn’t just about recipes. The dough rises each morning, the ovens stay hot, and the regulars keep coming back. For Manny Kanos, that’s the only measure that matters.

PORTRAIT OF A CITY - TRINITY FIRST HOPE CENTER. There will be different opinions on this article I'm sure. But what Donna Stiles does at Trinity First Hope Center takes a lot of hard work & perserverance. She cares. Photo of Donna Stiles by Bill Horin/ArtC. Story by Sal Emma/ArtC. Commissioned by Holly City Development Corporation

When Trinity First Hope Center opened in 2020, a dozen hungry people stopped by for bottled water and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. A lot has changed in six years. “Today, we serve full-course meals for 80, seven days a week,” says Donna Stiles, who runs the Center at 102 South 2nd Street.

The program grew out of COVID. “The poor and unhoused had few options for food, once fast-food restaurants and other businesses closed during the pandemic. We saw a need and decided to do something about it,” Donna says.

And they’re still doing it, with an even more ambitious mission. Today, Donna and her small band of volunteers work with Rutgers, Veterans Affairs, Oaks Integrated Care and other experts, providing clothing, workforce training, counseling, addiction recovery, mail handling and many other services designed to help the underprivileged get back on their feet.

In space donated by First United Methodist Church, they help whoever comes through the door, with no judgment or strings attached. “We do it because it’s the right thing to do. Our guests are human beings, each with a name and a life story. They’re people, worthy of love and respect,” Donna says.

PORTRAIT OF A CITY - HIGH STREET MARKET. The Market & its owner, Verna Wiggins, are welcome additions to Downtown Millville. Congratulations Verna & your team!. Photo by Bill Horin/ArtC. Story by Rob Laymon/ArtC. Commissioned by Holly City Development Corporation

Maybe something happens when you eat too much canned food as a kid. Maybe you grow up yearning for the freshness of ripe peppers and garden greens.

Verna Wiggins grew up in Camden, a place not well known for its fresh vegetables. Long gone were the days when local farmers floated boats full of tomatoes to the Campbell’s plant to be made into soup. That might be what’s put the fire of innovation in her soul, the dream vision of a produce market in the middle of Millville, where people can buy real food.

“I know what it feels like not to have fresh and local food around,” she says. “I know what it means to not have little bodegas on the corner that will help you live a healthful lifestyle.”

Wiggins is the proprietor of High Street Market, a produce market specializing in Jersey Fresh foods—and the sort of personal connection with customers that you often miss in the big chains. She was careful in her preparation.

Looking to start a business in town, Wiggins walked up and down High Street looking for the need that was not being met. The store that resulted now sells fresh local produce from May to December, and fresh but non-local produce during the rest of the year.

Open Monday through Friday 11 to 5 and every third Saturday, the store advertises itself as affordable and community focused.

“Every community deserves to have access to fresh affordable produce,” Wiggins says. “Our mission is community centered. That means building relationship with the people we serve, and creating a welcoming space. As we grow we want to get community more involved.

Next up: Finding a use for the boarded-up coal bins she also owns. She says she wants to turn them into small hubs for local businesses. And if the past is any predictor, that will happen.
