Zoo Atlanta

Adventure Cubs presented by Carter’s Charitable Foundation
is for toddlers and their favorite grownups for a morning of exploration,
learning and fun!
Embark on a new journey each month with a Zoo Educator as
families get to learn and play together.
Engaging activities will get you and your little one moving
and creating. Each month, young explorers will learn about a new animal through
a game, craft, story, and singalong. At the end of the program, participants
will visit the animal of the month’s habitat to make observations and draw
connections to the lesson. You and your family will then receive a themed
scavenger hunt to do in the Zoo on your own. This is a great opportunity to
make friends and spend time with your little explorers as they discover new
skills and learn about wildlife.
All topics and activities are designed for children ages
2-5, with opportunities for exploration for ages 0-2. During the winter months,
this program will be held indoors.

Horizon Theatre Company

Horizon Theatre Company presents Atlanta playwright Kira Rockwell’s new comedy HOLY CHICKEN SANDWICH, directed by Lisa Adler. When 100 devoted fans camp overnight for a chance to win a year of free fried chicken, strange disruptions turn the grand-opening celebration into hilarious chaos. With sharp satire and absurd humor, the play explores belief, devotion and the divisions that can bring people together—or tear them apart.
Performances run Aug. 21–Sept. 19 at Horizon Theatre Company. Tickets start at $40, with $20 student tickets available. Visit horizontheatre.com or call 404.584.7450 for tickets and information.“A cleverly funny show with a lot of heart. A clucking good time!”

The Garden Club at Wild Heaven West End 1010 White St SW Atlanta, GA 30310

Elf Power’s new record, Artificial Countrysides, pushes the Athens, GA band's music in unexpected directions, accentuating the psych-rock sound they have been honing for close to 30 years. Along with a blend of fuzz-toned electric and layered acoustic guitars, Moog keyboards and lively drums, the group experimented with the sounds of marimba, Mellotron, harpsichord, synth bass and distorted drum machine loops, all topped with melodies that echo in your head long after the music stops. The effect is electrifying, on songs that are unmistakably from Elf Power, yet muscular and propulsive in a distinctive new way.
Athens legends Five Eight have been playing electrifying rock shows from small clubs to huge stadiums for decades now. Members of R.E.M., Gang of Four, Sugar, The Minutemen and the Drive-by Truckers are fans, and the band has been riding high since touring in support of the feature documentary Weirdo: The Story of Five Eight in 2025. Paste Magazine called the movie "A gripping story of one of the best live bands to come out of Athens, Georgia, full of fantastic music and visuals." Also last year, Rolling Stone Magazine called their music "...vibrant and exciting, the kind of rock you play when you've decided that you're committed to the game for life." Five Eight's ninth studio album, Help a Sinner, was released on May 8th, 2026.
Shehehe: uncompromised, unabashed, uninhibited. The Athens trio's snarly call and response male/female punk vocals, occasional soft, sweet harmonies — and a scream or two — paired with thumpy, pounding, aggressive, hypnotic rhythms have been inspiring and cultivating a genuinely honest, nostalgic, yet unique rock &amp; roll scene.<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/148726/t/tickets" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">View Tickets &amp; More Info</a>

Hammonds House Museum

Join Dr. Ramatu &amp; guest drummers for African drumming, rhythm &amp; community! No drum? No problem. Have one? Bring it and join the circle!
Rhythms of Inheritance: A Community Drumming Circle
is an immersive and participatory experience inspired by Steve R. Allen's exhibitions, Infinite Inheritance and O Jogo Bonito (The Beautiful Game), now on view at Hammonds House Museum.&nbsp;
The program will be facilitated by Dr. Ramatu Afegbua-Sabbatt and four guest drummers: Aisha Hajara Oghele Mahmud, Fatima Yola Ijele Sabbatt, Jahbri Black, and Origunwa Vincent Ifa Kayode Scott Jr. Together, they will guide participants through African drumming instruction, call-and-response, performance, and community participation.
Dr. Ramatu Afegbua-Sabbatt brings extensive experience in African diaspora dance and drumming traditions. She has performed with leading cultural dance companies throughout Atlanta, including Extensions of Africa, African Dance Connections, Uhuru Dancers, Barefoot Ballet Manya, Giwayen Mata, and Ballethnic Dance Company's renowned Leopard's Tale.
Drawing inspiration from Allen's exploration of sacred geometry, Afrofuturism, ancestral knowledge, and Black cultural continuity, the program transforms rhythm into a shared language connecting past, present, and future.
Throughout the African diaspora, drumming has served as a form of communication, ceremony, celebration, resistance, and storytelling. 
The program also embraces themes from O Jogo Bonito (The Beautiful Game) by considering rhythm as the heartbeat of teamwork, athletic movement, resilience, and collective achievement. 
Everyone is welcome to participate, whether you have a drum or not! If you have your own drum, we invite you to bring it and join the circle. Whether you are an experienced drummer or simply curious to learn, come be part of this shared experience of rhythm, movement, and community.

Theatrical Outfit

You've been called for jury duty. Step into a thrilling courtroom drama where the audience is the jury. Listen to testimonies, analyze evidence, and ultimately decide… guilty or not guilty?
<blockquote>It's not theatre you watch.&nbsp; It's justice you deliver.</blockquote>
On a summer night, the son of a powerful politician took the wheel of the family's speedboat - an ex-lover and old friends on board. Hours later, one was dead, one in a coma, and the son is facing a murder charge. Was it an act of jealous rage? Or is there far more to this tragedy than meets the eye?
This experience includes themes of domestic violence, emotional manipulation, alcohol use, and a distressing emergency services call. The performance contains moments of intense emotional conflict.
<h2>Highlights</h2>
<ul><li>Enjoy a live theatre courtroom drama where you decide the final verdict</li><li>Vote during key moments - your decisions shape hidden angles in the case, making every show different!</li><li>Dissect witness testimonies, unpack evidence, and weigh every argument</li><li>A high-stakes case full of twists - more turns than a rollercoaster, and a verdict only you can deliver</li></ul>
<h2>How it works</h2>
1 Take your seat Arrive 30 min early. Doors close at show time — late entry is not permitted. 2 Hear the case Track every testimony, spot the contradictions, and vote at key moments to steer the trial. 3 Deliver your verdict The jury speaks. Guilty or not guilty - the outcome rests entirely with you.
