Once you find it though, it's like an oasis. It's basically a compound where artists rent studio spaces. The entrance review is pretty severe. You have to submit a portfolio and go through an interview process. There is a large warehouse that they use for the performance space. I think it used to be a textile manufacturing plant. I went for a production of Woyzeck. I liked the way the actors were all visible in the large space. They also have a little bar inside the space, and, my favorite part was this strange swing hanging from the ceiling. I spent most of my time on that! I liked the space, and now that I can find it, I'll keep going.

They really went to break the plates - unfortunately it was only 2 plates (but you could purchase additional plates for $2 each). They were there less than an hour.

By far one of the best spaces I have been to for a staging venue for a party! 5/5 across the board…read more The space was decorated to perfection. Everything was nice. The parking was not bad at all. I was parked in a parking garage. It seemed really safe and there was an officer riding around from the time that I got out of the car until the time I walked to the front door. Everything about the decorations, the music, the layout, the bar, the passing of the hors d'oeuvre by the catering company the whole decor. The whole set up was amazing and I only paid five dollars for parking when I left the garage that was absolutely a bonus, especially when you're in Buckhead, if I ever have an opportunity to host an event, I would love for it to be at the museum. It was amazing thank you!! sidenote the DJ did not miss the beat. All of the music was amazing. The dance floor was beautiful. It was just an amazing town to celebrate a 40th birthday party.!

Providing…read moreas a backdrop of art, design, decor, and perfect lighting, Buckhead Art & Company is absolutely breathtaking. The all glass exterior provides a glimpse into what Buckhead Art & Company has to offer, however, upon walking inside you are transported into an experience guided by canvas, stories, and moments of pause, conversation and reflection... and that's just the walls at the front. LoL. As Buckhead Art & Company provides as the ideal event space, it was the perfect fit for the birthday theme of #TheArtOfEvolution #40ShadesOfNeutral. The canvas aesthetic of Buckhead Art & Company allowed for the theme of the party to shine. The color palette coupled with the displayed artwork afforded you a moment of comfort and softness as the lighting set the tone that was curated by the art and decor. I am in love with Buckhead Art & Company as an art outlet as well as rental space. Whoever created and curated this space is a genius and understands the worlds of art and events. Buckhead Art & Company will forever be at the top of my list. Oh yeah, and the floor is perfect for a twirl!

This is the first Tour of Homes that I've attended and I loved it. Check-in was located at the…read moreYWCA on Highland Avenue. There, we were given a bag which contained a water bottle, some booties, and a booklet which included a map, background on each house, and featured sponsers. There were seven homes available for viewing and one church. I ended up driving to each home, though walking is an option if you're up for a good walk in between some locations. I drove because it was rainy and plus I wasn't sure about how far apart each house would be. Street parking was not an issue at all. There was plenty of space available, although this may have been because of the rain. In each home was set up a local restaurant, which offered samples to tourist. This was a very nice touch. A few that I remember include Noche, Timone's, Moore Farms, and La Tavola. Though I don't remember which restaurants served what, I can tell you that I enjoyed lobster bisque, tomato soup, quesadilla (Noche), skewered beef (Noche), a most delicious banana pudding and assorted pastries, bacon wrapped dates (Noche), mozzarella cheese and tomatoes in a basil sauce, fresh apples and cheese (Moore Farms), and salami and cheese. Everything was quite good. Some restaurants had coupons that could be used for a future visit. You had to put on the provided booties or take your shoes off to enter each home. Some people were walking around bare footed (and might I add, EEEwwwww) but most had on the booties or some socks. The homes were beautiful and totally inspiring. I loved every minute of observing the decor and learning the backgrounds of the homes. Also, some of the home owners were present as strangers went all around their homes. Understandably, there were some areas that were not a part of the tour and these areas were clearly marked. At each home, volunteers were available to help tourist and ensure that everyone was respectful of each home. They also were able to answer any questions that one may have had about the home. At each home, the greeter would sign your book to acknowledge that you had been to that home. I don't think they allow but one visit per home. Tickets for this event were $25 in advance and $30 at the door. All in all, I really enjoyed this event and I thought it was well organized. Homes were clearly marked, the maps were accurate and provided addresses, and everyone working the event was pleasant and helpful. 5 stars all day long.

Saw a request for volunteers that mentioned that volunteers get 2 free tickets for their time. I…read morefigured that it would be a nice way to see the charming homes of Virginia-Highland. In 2013, there were 9 stops- 8 homes and Briarcliff Summit (for the first time ever on the tour). Ticket pick-up, parking, and volunteer sign-in was at the YWCA. A nice central location for the event. You get a nice tote with a few items- including bottled water, which can come in handy. How it works: You have the choice of taking the tour on a Saturday or Sunday. Walk or drive around to the different locations on the map. When you enter the home, a volunteer will cross off on the map that you have entered the home. You can only enter once. Other volunteers will be available to direct you and potentially tell you facts about the home and answer questions. In each of the 8 homes, neighborhood restaurants set up shop to serve mini servings of their dishes. Note that you will need to wear booties or go barefoot in the homes in order to protect the owners' flooring. Pros: I appreciated the food since I had been volunteering during an early shift. The food from the restaurants was great for the most part and some offered coupons so that you could try them out in full at a discount. A nice variety of homes and few were very special. I appreciate the homeowners opening their homes to us. The crowds were all in good spirits even though it was a rainy and chilly day. Cons: The first house I went to was out of food just as we arrived. And there were HOURS left of the tour. So that was disappointing. All the other restaurants had food left as we went around though. Not enough time on Sunday for the entire tour if you are volunteering. I wish it had been open one hour later. Take home: I plan to go again next year.

Real simple, nice stadium. It was my first time there on the 3rd, for the Chris Brown concert. I…read morehave to say, I didn't like it for a concert. Being that they have bleachers, there was a lot of rattling going on and seating got tricky because it was bleachers style seating. These are my reasons why no 5-stars.... oh yeah be ready to walk some stairs, depending on your gate entrance. Each staff member I encountered was very helpful and nice. There were plenty of stalls in the restroom and it was clean. I'm not sure of the concession stand or stands because we stopped, ate and drank before we got there. It did look as if there is no bad seat in the stadium, rather high or low. I could go back for a game for sure but probably nor for a concert.

We celebrated Georgia Tech graduation this past weekend at Bobby Dodd Stadium, and it was a…read morememorable experience--rain and all! As a new GT alum, I'm clearly biased, but this really is one of my favorite stadiums. The field looked great, and the staff was organized and helpful throughout the day. The Jumbotrons are crisp and well-positioned, so guests seated all around had a clear view of the field. My guests also raved about the amazing city skyline views from the stands, depending on where you're seated. And of course, the Ramblin' Wreck made its iconic appearance--a highlight for anyone who knows Tech tradition. The Wreck is a 1930 Ford Model A and Georgia Tech's official mechanical mascot. It leads the football team onto the field at all our home games, and seeing it roll onto the field for graduation gave the day a uniquely nostalgic, GA Tech feel. A few practical tips: *Clear bag policy is strictly enforced--especially important for women with purses. One of my guests had to "bag check" hers, ouch *Mobile tickets only, which scanned without any hiccups. *Security screening includes metal detectors at all entrances. *It's an open-air stadium, so you're exposed to the elements--no umbrellas allowed, and we had rain in the forecast. Ponchos or rain jackets are a must! *Parking can be tricky, and traffic around campus gets intense--Uber is a good call if you can swing it. All in all, a beautiful venue with rich tradition and a killer skyline backdrop. A perfect place to catch a college football game or celebrate becoming a Helluva Engineer!

I only went into one gallery but that experience was so overwhelming that I didn't go into another one. The gallery was very hot inside with lots of people and I felt like I had to hurry through. But the art I saw was pretty cool. I saw a couple of outdoor pieces that I liked (see photos), but much of what I saw was a bit average. Once you've seen one painted lady you've seen them all, right? And since I live near L5P I see white kids with dreads dancing in the street all the time; it's not that impressive. I think if they condensed it to one street, it would have a more festive feel to it. Also, everything felt a bit random instead of deliberately placed to catch your eye. I dunno, maybe I've been to so many festivals that I'm picky about how entertainment is presented. I will give Flux Night another try in a few years to see how it grows/changes. *A note on parking: I parked for $5 at one of the small lots on Spring Street, but I was there by 7:30. The lot is a short walk across the street to the start of the festival.

Yeah, few of the stuff I saw looked cool and seemed like they put a lot of work into it. But I'm too old to stay up this late to appreciate this stuff. They had people yelling through megaphones. At first, I thought it was people who were evangelizing. But they were just talking about some revolution. I saw ballet dancers playing a dancing game. I didn't understand the game. They just walked along lines and did some ballet moves. People put papers in between 2 buildings. Those were cool, I guess. I didn't understand it though. I guess they were suppose to change colors or something? Sophie Farewell looked like a Monty Python set. Maybe I should've stayed and listened to their babbling. Their sets looked cool because they built these tall towers that represented a mountain and a moon where they stood on and did their thing. Inside one of the buildings, they had a smoke cannon. And they had murals that people took pictures in front of. One of the streets had spotlights and some bat-like screeches playing. I guess it was suppose to be holophonic. There were other stuff, but I didn't find them memorable. Someone was cracking a whip. There were some costumed people, but after Dragon-con, these guys looked sub-par. An informal dance circle formed somewhere. However, I didn't see any bboys doing their thing. It was just people dancing badly . Like I said, the parking was bad. I suggest people to bike there if they can. They have a bike valet. Or you can take Marta. But driving there could be a pain unless you want to park a mile away near the Phillips Arena or Georgia Dome area. The parking will cost $10. I think if you come early, you might score some free street parking. I left around 10:30 PM. Maybe all the cool stuff happens later at night. Then again I did come alone. I guess it would be more fun with friends. I don't know though. I met up with some people and it was still boring. Maybe if I took some of the stuff I smelled throughout the streets, it would've made my experience better.

Smaller event that you find on Event Brite, tickets for two run anywhere from $20 ish (no drinks)…read moreto $35-45 buck for 2 for drinks. Plus you can buy some stuff there. street parking which is free. it's a smaller building location. your entry includes tickets for food and drinks (if you opted for drinks). each vendor gives you some treats: cookies, cupcakes, ice cream, donuts etc. for tickets...there is a bar as well. event brite has the event from 1p-5p but it's 1p-4p. at the end you vote for your favorite, very chill get together. we came towards the end bc we thought it ended at 5, arrived around 340p. some vendors were trying to give away what they had so we got a bunch of stuff and some were still stingy about tickets. Heirloom Donuts and Krispy Kreme were the nicest and most generous. Heirloom has good donuts and twinkies!! KK is always delish. Not sure we would do it again, it's VERY high in sugar (obviously), but it's a cute winter event if you need something to do and get some drinks and chill. i've been to better events but this isn't bad at all and chill. everyone is very nice and relaxed.
