Zoo Atlanta

Summer Safari Camp at Zoo Atlanta
Join us for an exploration of all things WILD! 
Safari Camp at Zoo Atlanta offers a memorable adventure for campers ages 5-14 while fostering a deeper connection to animals and inspiring conservation action.
From Zoo explorations and group games to inquiry-based scientific investigations and projects, young explorers will be immersed in hands-on, minds-on learning while having fun. Experience a summer of excitement and discovery at Zoo Atlanta’s Summer Safari Camp! Select an individual week that fits in your summer plans, or spend the entire summer with us. 
Summer Camp dates: Weekly, May 26 - July 31, 2026
Time: 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. 
Extended care available for an additional cost per week from 8 a.m. – 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. – 5 p.m. 
THEMES:
Each week campers embark on a different Zoo expedition, exploring wildlife and wild places. From Marvelous Mammals to Brilliant Biomes, participants will be engaged in learning about how to make a positive difference for animals! 
What You Need To Know:
Safari Camp is a great opportunity to engage young explorers in learning about the wild world around them and beginning their journey of conservation stewardship. Through Zoo explorations, up-close animal encounters, STEAM-based projects, hands-on science activities, environmental games and more, campers learn about attainable strategies and goals to combat environmental issues and are charged with finding simple ways that they can make a difference.
While Zoo Atlanta is a great place to discover nature and wildlife, it is also important that campers have a chance to experience wildlife in a more natural setting. Campers and their Educators may travel out to Grant Park (which surrounds the Zoo) to participate in a variety of activities such as nature walks, environmental research, and group team-building games.

Held every Wednesday through July 15, the indoor summer series pairs guided yoga classes led by a certified instructor with adoptable Furkids puppies roaming throughout the session, creating a playful way for guests to support the organization's lifesaving work while spending time on the growing Furkids campus. What began more than two decades ago with founder Samantha Shelton rescuing a frightened family of cats from her porch has grown into Georgia's largest no-kill shelter and one of the Southeast's most expansive volunteer-driven animal welfare organizations. The Puppy Yoga Summer Series arrives at a pivotal time for Furkids as the organization expands its campus and shelters while entering a new chapter of growth and visibility across Georgia.

Fox Theatre

Today, three-time GRAMMY Award-winning singer, songwriter, actress and cultural force Jill Scott and Live Nation Urban announce the highly anticipated To Whom This May Concern World Tour, a monumental global 36-date run across the United States, Europe, the United Kingdom and South Africa. The tour will kick off in Nashville, before traveling through major US cities including Atlanta’s
Fox Theatre on Friday, July 10 and Saturday, July 11. Tickets are on sale now at <a href="https://tracking.us.nylas.com/l/ed7cd3b02f5c4065a9d73d5bd1afc43e/1/873979d636c2afe1522b9631bf454c3fec7e877f54c1853d4038d11261e378db?cache_buster=1773242672" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">foxtheatre.org</a>.
Rooted in live musicianship, intentional storytelling and the unmistakable warmth of Scott’s voice, the To Whom This May Concern Tour will center on a series of residency-style performances, placing live band instrumentation at the heart of the experience. Each city will host uniquely curated shows designed to create deep, immersive connections between artist and audience.
“Creating unique experiences for people in every city is incredibly important to me,” Scott says. “Music is a conversation, and the stage is where we come together to share truth, joy and the beauty of being alive.” Renowned for live performances that blend power, intimacy, and authenticity, Scott returns to the stage backed by a masterful live band and delivers vocals that often surpass her recordings, reminding audiences why she remains one of the most revered voices in music. Known affectionately as “Jilly from Philly,” she brings warmth, honesty, and grown-and-sexy energy to the stage, leaving the “Beautiful People” uplifted, inspired and reminded of the power of music to heal, celebrate and bring us together.
The news arrives alongside Jill Scott’s critically acclaimed sixth studio album, To Whom This May Concern, released February 13 via Blues Babe and Human Re Sources. Marking her first studio album in more than a decade, the project ushers in a powerful new chapter in Scott’s celebrated career. The upcoming tour will serve as a global celebration of both the new album and Scott’s enduring musical legacy. 
Upon release, the album earned mass critical acclaim and debuted in the Top 10 across seven Billboard charts, including:
·No. 7 - Top Album Sales
·No. 4 - Top R&amp;B Albums
·No. 6 - Independent Albums
·No. 6 - Vinyl Albums
·No. 6 - Indie Store Album Sales
·No. 7 - Top Current Album Sales
·No. 10 - Top R&amp;B/Hip-Hop Albums
The project has already generated over 35 million streams worldwide. Across her full body of work, including specialty releases and compilations - the new album represents the ninth time Scott has entered the Top 10 on Billboard’s Top R&amp;B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, underscoring her enduring influence and artistry.

Big Sandy and His Fly-Rite Boys
Since forming in 1988 in Southern California, Big Sandy and His Fly-
Rite Boys have become one of the world’s most beloved Americana/
Roots acts, drawing from the deep musical waters that flow just
beneath the surface of Rock &amp; Roll’s fertile soil. A childhood passion
for Country, Doo-Wop, and Rhythm &amp; Blues 45s led Sandy (born
Robert Williams) to pursue a singing career as a teenager, beginning
a life in music that continues decades later. And as his personal
record collection continues to grow (75,000 and counting), so does
the depth of the musical influences that stream through his
songwriting and singing style. A critically acclaimed tribute to Tex-
Mex hero Freddy Fender, released at the beginning of the 2020
lockdown, points the way forward for Big Sandy and his Fly-Rite Boys
as they continue on a path of musical growth. After nearly 35 years on
the road, and more than two dozen releases to their credit, they
remain key figures on the ever-changing Americana circuit, both on
record and in live appearances.

The Blacktop Rockets
The Blacktop Rockets have been blending and bending rockabilly, rock and roll, country and blues for more than 30 years. Based in Atlanta GA, they have toured up and down the Eastern Seaboard, the Southeast and parts of Europe.<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/140836/t/tickets" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">View Tickets &amp;&nbsp;More Info</a>

Band will mark our nation’s 250th&nbsp;anniversary with a concert titled&nbsp;“Americans We: Celebrating Our Shared
Story in Music”.&nbsp;&nbsp;Taking place
on&nbsp;Saturday, June

Center at Morehouse College, this Semiquincentennial musical offering features
a diverse array of composers representing a wide array of American voices in
music.

Our concert celebrates the diversity, the varied voices, and shared stories
that make up our country.&nbsp; The music will challenge, inform, entertain,
and delight.

composers such as&nbsp;Florence
Price&nbsp;and&nbsp;Aaron Copland&nbsp;paired with today’s counterparts such as&nbsp;Erica Svanoe, Quincy Hilliard, Omar

community), and more.
Led by&nbsp;Artistic Director O’Shae Best&nbsp;in his first season with the ensemble, AFB’s
Concert Band will bring these stories spanning the breadth of our nation to
life.
