FEATURED EVENT: On the Bricks - FRIDAY

We're back!

We took last week off because we wore ourselves out in Chicago! That's right, over the 4th of July weekend, the downtownATL.com staff took a much needed vacation to the city known for deep dish pizzas and hot dogs. It does feel good to be back in Atlanta though...especially with all of the really exciting events going on this week!

On Friday evening, Lunatique will be hosting a wine tasting event, featuring samples from J. Lohr Vineyards. After that, head over to Centennial Olympic Park in order to catch Wyclef Jean live in concert. Can you believe that it is only $3.00 to get in?!?

After the bricks, join the downtownATL.com staff and 500 other people at the Velvet Room for "Cocktails for a Cause", benefitting The Giving Kind. A $20 donation will mean an open bar from 8:00 p.m. until 11:00 p.m., free food, champange toasts, Q100 Live from the Bar with Tracy St. George and DJ Mike B, and a fashion show . Listen to Q100 for more information. The Giving Kind has hosted events for the past three years in order to raise money so that underpriviledged children from Atlanta can attend summer camp.

On Sunday, hit King Plow for Atlanta Magazine's "Hair Affair."
It is the perfect opportunity to check out the latest hairstyles, designed by more than 15 of Atlanta's top stylists. The hottest colors, cuts, and styles will be showcased on models in a catwalk-style show. What is the latest wearable and sellable hair in Atlanta? You'll have to attend to find out!

There are many other events going on this week...for more information, please check out our website at www.downtownatl.com. We hope to see y'all real soon
