This Saturday is the third and final installment of Artspalooza, the first of many youth education initiatives by the Woodruff Arts Center funded by their recent $12 million grant. If you or your kids are into mural painting, African dance, or cartooning, why not treat the fam' to a day of culture, courtesy the Goizueta Foundation?
And the City of Atlanta Office of Cultural Affairs proudly announces the restoration of the S. Truett Cathy monument, aka the No Goal Is Too High If We Climb With Care And Confidence sculpture. Samuel Truett Cathy is the 88-year-old founder of the Chick-fil-A fast food chain. He built his first restaurant when he was 25.
