AMORE E AMORE DIVES INTO NOSTALGIA WITH “UNDER THE SEA” SPRING & SUMMER THEME

Posted by Liz and John Attaway, 3/9/26

A Vintage Coastal Fantasy Inspired by the Late Professor Giovanni Ferro’s Love for the Sea

Reservations Now Available 

This spring and summer, Amore e Amore invites Atlanta to dive into a whimsical world beneath the waves. Beginning Thursday, March 5, 2026, the beloved Inman Park ristorante will unveil its latest immersive transformation, Under the Sea, a vintage-inspired, delightfully kitschy coastal escape filled with nostalgic charm, playful surprises, and the theatrical spirit that has defined the restaurant for 25 years.

Inspired by the late Professor Giovanni Ferro’s love for the sea, the dining room will be transformed into a retro underwater dreamscape layered with shimmering blue lanterns, floating jellyfish, cheeky sharks, and nostalgic seaside touches that feel like a throwback to classic beach boardwalks and old-school ocean adventures. Turquoise, Giovanni’s favorite color, sets the tone throughout the space, washing the room in playful shades of blue that evoke sunlit water and carefree summer days.

As Amore e Amore continues celebrating its 25th anniversary, the theme feels especially fitting. For a quarter century, the restaurant has built its reputation on transporting guests somewhere unexpected, turning dinner into an experience and transforming the dining room into an ever-evolving stage for imagination and celebration. Under the Sea carries that tradition forward while honoring the spirit of the man who inspired so much of it.

“This theme feels incredibly special,” says co-founder “Mama Gale” Parker. “Giovanni always loved the sea. There was something about it that made him feel joyful and free, and that sense of wonder is something we’ve always tried to bring into the restaurant. For 25 years, our goal has been to create a place where people can escape, celebrate, and make memories together. Under the Sea is a tribute to that same spirit and the man behind that inspiration.”

Alongside the immersive décor, guests can expect Amore e Amore’s signature Italian cuisine paired with playful themed cocktails, creative zero-proof libations, and plenty of surprises woven throughout the dining experience. Additional details, menus, and seasonal surprises will be announced in the coming weeks. 

Amore e Amore is located at 467 N. Highland Ave. NE, Atlanta, GA 30307, and is open Tuesday through Sunday beginning at 5 p.m. Kids ages 12 and under are welcome from opening until 7:30 p.m. For reservations or more information, visit www.amoreeamore.com.

INDIE CRAFT SPRING EXPERIENCE ANNOUNCES NEW LOCATION AT THE GOAT FARM AND A BOLD NEW VISION – ONLY $5 FOR MONTH OF APRIL!

Posted by Liz and John Attaway, 3/3/26

Now Produced by Tiny Rhino Productions

The Indie Craft Spring Experience returns May 2-3, 2026 with an exciting new location at Goat Farm, ushering in a new era for Atlanta’s longest-running handmade market. Now produced by Tiny Rhino Productions, the beloved event expands its vision – intentionally bridging the space between indie makers and contemporary craft while preserving the bold, funky energy that has defined the markets since 2005.

This spring, artists from seven states across the Southeast will gather in Atlanta, showcasing a dynamic cross-section of regional talent. The event continues to serve as a trusted destination for discovering Southern independent makers, while elevating its curatorial lens to spotlight work that merges DIY ethos with refined craftsmanship and modern design.

Set within the industrial, art-forward environment of Goat Farm, the Spring Experience will feature a thoughtfully curated lineup of artists and designers showcasing concept-driven handmade work, elevated material exploration, collectible small-batch design, and personality-rich brands that sit comfortably alongside refined minimal aesthetics.

“For the last 20 years, Indie Craft Experience has celebrated accessible, handmade culture,” says Katrine Trantham, owner of Tiny Rhino Productions. “This spring, we’re leaning into the exciting middle ground – where independent makers are pushing into contemporary craft conversations. And just as importantly, we’re still embracing the playful energy and quirkiness that people know and love us for. Shoppers can expect to find many of their longtime local favorites while also discovering an exciting wave of new talent from across the Southeast.”

The result is a market experience that will resonate with longtime Indie Craft Experience supporters, as well as serious collectors, design enthusiasts, and shoppers seeking both statement pieces and timeless staples.

Strengthening Atlanta’s Handmade Ecosystem

Beyond the market weekend, organizers are reinforcing their commitment to Atlanta’s year-round creative economy. In conjunction with the Spring Experience, Tiny Rhino is sharing a newly compiled guide to Handmade in Atlanta — spotlighting independent retailers and creative spaces that champion local artists and small-batch design.

This initiative reflects Tiny Rhino Productions’ broader mission: not only producing thoughtfully curated events, but cultivating a sustainable infrastructure for independent craft throughout the Southeast.

Event Details

Location: The Goat Farm Arts Center, 1200 Foster Street, Atlanta, GA

HAMBIDGE BRINGS BACK ANNUAL ACTION AT THE HIVE AT UPTOWN WITH FOCUS ON “HAND, MATERIAL, MIND”

Posted by Liz and John Attaway, 2/27/26

One of Atlanta’s most dynamic art events is shifting to this spring and celebrating craft. We’re once again bringing the spirit of Hambidge into the city, highlighting the generative power of contemporary art and craft. From March through April 2026, we will feature installations, ceramic cups, and hundreds of artworks; host a chef-crafted luncheon and panel; and activate the space with creative events inspired by “Hand, Material, Mind” — all against sweeping city views. 

Hambidge’s 31st annual auction will once again take place on the 15th floor of Uptown, the vibrant mixed-use community surrounding the Lindbergh MARTA station, complete with a captivating 360-degree view of the  skyline and immersive installations by eleven artists. The auction will open on March 19 with a free reception, hosted by the American Craft Council. After a month of programming, artist talks, activations, a panel luncheon,  and a curator-led tour, the auction will culminate on April 18 with the auction closing party. As always, the auction party includes a dynamic mix of performances, music, and visual and culinary arts celebrating the vastness of creativity in all its forms—rooted in place and reflective of the vibrant community that gathers around Hambidge. 

This year’s auction will showcase over 200 artists from our robust network and the fellow community. We are proud to offer affordable buy-it-now works starting at $200 and coveted auction pieces valued up to $10,000 as well as an entire wall dedicated to ceramic cups and vessels for purchase. Bidders will have the opportunity to take home work by artists like Rocio Rodriguez, Donté K. Hayes, Shanequa Gay, Kandy Lopez, Marcus Kenney, Ron Meyers, Edward Moulthrop, Ato Ribeiro, Natalie Chanin, and more. As a core component of our new auction model in the Uptown space, we are once again proud to announce collaborations with twelve installation artists: Michi Meko, Noushin Mousavi, Emma Ramirez, Jason Friedes, Charlita, Benjamin Roosevelt, Sayma Hossain, Jasmine Best, Pam Korman, George Long, Laura Bell, and Matt Haffner. These artists were chosen both for how their practices expand on functional materiality and invite audiences to engage with the living traditions of craft. We are thrilled with the work’s thematic components which truly represent the essence of Hambidge: a reverence for the environment, an emphasis on communal conversation, the meditative ritual of creative work, and the preservation of memory, place, and tradition. The 2026 Hambidge Hive installations are supported in part by a grant from the Mayor’s Office of Cultural Affairs (OCA). 

This year, we are proud to be a part of Handwork: Celebrating American Craft 2026, a nationwide  Semiquincentennial initiative, presented by Craft in America, to showcase the importance of the handmade  both throughout our history and in contemporary life.  As a part of this focus on Craft, The American Craft  Council (ACC) and The Hambidge Center will host a collaborative opening reception, ATL Ascent on March 19, celebrating Atlanta’s creative community. During the  first night of our auction, the ACC plans to unveil details  for the 2027 ACC Atlanta Fair. The evening will feature a  micro-market of regional craft artists (Nicholas Hall,  Metaalia Jewelry, Theresa St. Romain, Deborah Crichton,  Sally Morgan, Chase Shuman, Charlotte Smith Studios,  and Silica Bruns Glass), artist installations, and remarks  from organizational and city leaders. This event is free  and open to the public.  

For the first time at the Hambidge Hive, we will host a  new add-on, daytime chef-crafted luncheon and panel, The Crafted Table, on April 15. This ticketed event will  bring together voices from design, culinary, contemporary craft, and the artist community for a  conversation about how handmade objects shape the waywe gather, nourish, and connect. Using the table as both a literal and symbolic centerpiece, panelists will  explore the human stories, materials, and creative processes behind the objects that bring us together—and  the importance of time and place in meaningful making. The chef-crafted lunch will be provided by Jessamine Starr. Deputy Director Ife Williams will lead the discussion with Alisa Barry, Laura Flusche, Michi Meko, and Virginia Willis. 

We are eager to present new Hive programming and to dedicate our Hambidge Atlanta satellite to the  celebration of craft: unique methods of creative production, aesthetic utility, and the elevation of the everyday. We hope the space—inspired by and rooted in craft’s enduring lineage—encourages visitors to think critically  about contemporary art in all of its forms and mediums. 

Stay tuned for more Hambidge Hive events and activations through the duration of our auction and after. To support our fundraiser and greater mission, consider becoming a sponsor or patron. For more information, visit hambidgeauction.org or contact Jac Kuntz Goldsmith at jkuntz@hambidge.org.

SPACE EXPLORERS: THE INFINITE LANDS AT PULLMAN YARDS

Posted by Liz and John, 2/27/26

The world’s largest immersive space experience opens March 27, transforming Pullman Yards into a gateway to orbit

 Space Explorers: THE INFINITE arrives at Pullman Yards, offering Atlanta audiences a rare opportunity to experience life as an astronaut onboard the International Space Station. Presented for a limited engagement by Infinity Experiences, the exhibition transforms one of the city’s most dynamic creative hubs into a launchpad for discovery, wonder, and perspective.

Since its creation in 2021, Space Explorers: THE INFINITE has captivated more than half a million visitors worldwide. This groundbreaking experience captures the daily life of real astronauts in the largest media project ever filmed in space, delivering an unprecedented journey through immersive 360-degree footage shot entirely inside and outside the International Space Station (ISS).

Fewer than 300 people have traveled to the International Space Station over the past two decades. Inspired by NASA missions and co-created by Montreal-based PHI Studio and Felix & Paul Studios, Space Explorers: THE INFINITE offers visitors extraordinary access to life beyond Earth as the world’s largest immersive exhibition dedicated to space exploration.

Using cutting-edge immersive technology, guests explore a life-size replica of the International Space Station, gaining access to astronauts’ daily lives, spacewalks, and sweeping views of Earth from orbit. Blending cinematic storytelling with advanced spatial design, Space Explorers: THE INFINITE delivers the closest sensation yet to being in outer space without ever leaving the ground.

“Audiences no longer have to simply watch stories about space exploration,” said Eric Albert, CEO of Infinity Experiences. “With THE INFINITE, they become participants. It’s about offering a deeply human experience—one that inspires curiosity, humility, and a renewed sense of our shared place in the universe.”

During the experience, visitors are transported nearly 250 miles above Earth, moving in and out of the ISS itself. The journey goes beyond observation, offering intimate encounters and interviews with real astronauts featured in the experience, alongside quiet, awe-inspiring moments of Earth-gazing that evoke the “overview effect”—the overwhelming feeling astronauts describe when seeing Earth from space.

Guests get a front-row seat to NASA’s Artemis I rocket launch presented on giant screens, connecting humanity’s achievements in orbit with the next chapter of deep-space exploration as the Artemis program prepares for its upcoming Artemis II launch. The experience also features The Universe within the Universe, an audiovisual installation by renowned artist Ryoji Ikeda, designed to evoke the feeling of weightlessness and wonder. For one unforgettable hour, guests are invited to feel what it’s like to truly become an astronaut.

Space Explorers: THE INFINITE has been presented in major cities across North America and beyond, including Montreal, Houston, Seattle/Tacoma, Richmond/San Francisco, Charlotte, Vancouver, Denver, Toronto, Edmonton, West Palm Beach, Shanghai, and Singapore. Atlanta now joins this list of global destinations, underscoring the city’s growing role as a cultural and creative hub.

At Pullman Yards for a limited time, Space Explorers: THE INFINITE invites Atlanta to experience a journey that inspires curiosity, wonder, and a deeper connection to humanity’s shared place in the universe. With its strong educational foundation and real-world scientific content, the experience also offers a compelling opportunity for school groups and educators.

The experience is based on the Primetime Emmy Award®–winning  series Space Explorers: The ISS Experience, created and produced by Felix & Paul Studios in collaboration with NASA and TIME Studios.
