Atlanta has been dubbed everything from the "capital of the new South" and "the next international city" to "the best place to do business." It's also a great place to visit. Fueled by the prosperity of local mega companies like Coca Cola and Holiday Inn, the prestige of hosting the 1996 Summer Olympic Games and the energy of young upwardly mobile types who have migrated to the city in droves - Atlanta is on fire. And this time it's a good thing. From world-class restaurants and a myriad of cultural attractions to a hip nightlife and sporting events galore, the city is cosmopolitan in every sense of the word. But Atlanta has also managed to maintain its historic character. Stop by the Atlanta History Center or visit the Martin Luther King Jr. Historical Site, a moving tribute to an American icon. Browse through the former home of famous author Margaret Mitchell or pop into the Jimmy Carter Library and Museum for details on the life and times of the former president and his family. Whether you choose modern urban endeavors or old southern pleasures, Atlanta will not disappoint.

SCAD FASH Museum of Fashion + Film celebrates fashion as a universal language, garments as important conduits of identity, and film as an immersive and memorable medium. Situated within the SCAD Atlanta campus at 1600 Peachtree St. NW, SCAD FASH focuses on the future of fashion design, connecting conceptual to historical principles of dress — whether ceremonial, celebratory or casual — and welcomes visitors of all ages to engage with dynamic exhibitions, captivating films and educationally enriching events. Fortified by the university's strong global presence and worldwide connections to renowned contemporary fashion designers, filmmakers and creative professionals all over the world, SCAD FASH is an integral part of the SCAD educational experience.
This was my first visit to SCAD FASH for the “Ruth E. Carter: Afrofuturism in Costume Design” exhibit. I thought I was visiting to see the costumes she designed for Black Panther. But, the costumes she designed from a multitude of films are also on view: Do The Right Thing, Roots, I’m Gonna Git You Sucka, Shaft, Amistad, Selma, The Butler, Malcolm X, Chi-Raq and Dolemite Is My Name. Ruth E. Carter designed spectacular costumes for more than three decades before she won the Academy Award for Best Costume Design for Black Panther. The exhibition is breathtaking. I’m still blown away. And I left feeling as though the experience was worth more than what I paid. Tickets ($10) are purchased online in advance and parking is complimentary. Run to this exhibit. I guarantee you’ll be better for it!

Al Capone’s Speakeasy was amazing and the live actor, Skyler, was so fantastic and believable that you will feel as though you have been transported back to the early 1900’s. This escape room is so unique that I would have to say that it’s one of my favorites I’ve done.
