Hug a Wookiee and more holiday weekend things to do
Residents and visitors urged to prepare for large crowds in Midtown and the surrounding area this holiday weekend
The Labor Day weekend is here and it should be quite the busy one in Midtown and the surrounding area. With events scheduled ranging from Dragon*Con to Atlanta Black Pride to Park Tavern music festivals to college and prep football games, the Atlanta Police Department is reminding residents to stay safe and prepare accordingly for expected traffic and crowds. “The best advice I can give is for folks to not leave anything of value in their cars,” said Maj. Wayne Whitmire, Commander of APD’s Zone 5. “It’s actually a crime where people have a great deal of power to avoid becoming a victim. Leave items of value at home, or take them with you if absolutely necessary. Do not leave them in your car.” Atlanta Black Pride kicked off Thursday and …

Digging Into 'Art on the BeltLine'
Artists start to install exhibits along the BeltLine trail.
A serpentine tunnel of twigs soon will rise from the edge of Piedmont Park. Over the next month, earthy sculptor J.D. Koth will transform a grassy spot near Park Tavern in Midtown. Using branches and saplings, Koth will create a structure about 20 feet long that allows people to pass through as it curves along the ground. The sculpture is one of 66 projects commissioned for "Art on the Atlanta BeltLine," a public art program in its second year along the 22-mile loop. Koth and other artists began installing their projects this week. Art will be displayed or performed from September to November. The schedule will be released later this summer. Koth, an Edgewood resident who studies sculpture at Georgia State, said his dreamy design will …
