    Michael C. Carson Museum

    Atlanta GA

    By: Cece Hymes

    I got a chance to check out this Museum. It was nice. It wasn’t that big but a nice size. You can enjoy the collections. Explore the art and history of world cultures from Africa; The Americas; ancient Greece and Rome: and South Asia.

    They had Ancient Egyptian, Nubian, and Near eastern art. They had the collections of mummies and talks about the Egyptian funerary masks, finely crafted bronze statuettes of deities.

    We saw the Greek Roman Art and it was so unique it had the maps on the floor, they had the Pacific Ocean and more. I thought that was very unique and different. I haven’t seen that in any other Museum.

    I love learning about the different cultures and ancient times. If you are interested check out this museum, it is really nice and very interesting. Make sure to follow me at Cece. Atl.

  • Atlanta Botanical Garden

    Place: Atlanta Botanical Garden

    Where: Atlanta GA

    By: Cece Hymes

    I had a chance to do one of the things on my Atlanta Bucket list. We had a family day and went to the Botanical Garden in Atlanta. It was beautiful. We saw different exhibitions. Here are some that we checked out.

    Trolls: Save the Hymans by Thomas Dambo: It was an Exhibition of enormous folklore inspired sculptures built from reclaimed materials. Trolls in the garden blend art, nature and its beauty.

    Orchid Daze: The garden annual indoor plant exhibition explores several murals by inventive artists that enhance the breathtaking blooms. It was so beautiful and breathtaking. Just the view by itself.

    Atlanta Blooms:  The visual of tulips. They were so beautiful and bright. Just right for the spring and nice weather. All the species of tulips plants are so beautiful.

    This place was well worth it, and I have to try it out during Christmas with all the lights. If you are in the Atlanta area, check out the Botanical Garden, it is worth the sight.  I can now check this off my Atlanta bucket list. It felt like I was in a rainforest and beautiful gardens in a special place.

    If you love nature and flowers and just want to get out and enjoy Atlanta check them out. Also Make sure to Follow me @Cece.Atl.

  • Atlantucky 1-year Anniversary (Nappy Roots)

    Nappy Roots 1-year Anniversary at Atlantucky Brewing

    Where: Atlanta, GA

    By: Cece Hymes

    I had a chance to go and support the Nappy Roots on their one-year anniversary for opening up their Brewing called Atlantucky.  Let’s talk a little about Atlantucky. It is a Black-owned brewer in the heart of Atlanta owned by the Nappy Roots. Nappy Roots came out of Kentucky and they put Atlanta and Kentucky together to make Atlantucky. Fish Scales and Skinny DeVille learned about beer and opened their own Brewing.

    Every time I go there it has positive vibes and a mixed crowd. I love what they are doing and are still making great music. It is their 1-year anniversary, and they have some special performances to celebrate with them. I got a chance to see Pastor Troy, Fabo and Backbone from the Dungeon Family perform. All the members of Nappy Roots were in the building showing love to everyone.

    If you haven’t checked out their spot make sure to check it out. Also, if you love a good beer they have different kinds and are steadily making new flavors for you to try. If you want to have an event, they also rent out one side of the building for events.

    So proud of the Nappy Roots and hope they continue to be great and keep pushing out great music. Happy Nappy Anniversary and hope they have many many more.  They also have Art shows, Writer room, Game night and many more other things there. Make sure to follow them to keep up with the new beers, music and events.

  • Leading Men of Film and Television in Atlanta GA

    Event: Leading Men of Film and Television

    Where: Atlanta GA

    By: Cece Hymes

    I had a chance to go to this event hosted by Michelle Taylor Willis. I love getting out and networking in Atlanta, GA. There are so many things to do here. I got a chance to meet Tray Chaney who was on Saints and Sinners. I also got a chance to meet Julian Brittano who has been in a couple of films. I interviewed him and learned a little more about his journey. Make sure to check it out.  They had Kevin Savage and Rico Ball seen on #BET. They shared a lot of knowledge on the panel.

    All these great men have been on the Wire and Saints and sinners. I know everyone has watched those shows. Julian was on Greenleaf when I interviewed him, he talked about his experience on that show. Here at this event, they share their personal experiences and knowledge to motivate and inspire those who are truly serious about getting into the industry.

    Atlanta is the next Black Hollywood and there are so many movies and films being made here in Atlanta. I might need to get into film lol. I enjoyed this event and was glad to be invited out. I give all those men their roses today. They were sharp and shared a lot of information. Make sure to check them out and also follow me @Cece.Atl.

  • The Pancakes & Booze Art Show (Atlanta GA)

    The Pancakes & Booze Art Show

    Where: Atlanta GA

    By: Cece Hymes

    I got a chance to go check out The Pancakes & Booze Art Show with the ladies of W.S.S (Woman Stand Strong). It was different and cool. It is one of the largest pop-up live music & arts movements here in Atlanta. They do have this and go to different states. This was their 10th year serving free pancaking and introducing some great talent in art.

    If you have Art that you want to present, you can submit your Artwork and be a part of their Pop-up. The directions on the GPS made it hard to find. I would recommend they put a sign outside or something. We had a hard time finding it. I really enjoyed the different drawings. I did not get a chance to try out the pancakes.

    If you are an upcoming artist and want to strut your stuff, check them out. I have been wanting to check them out for a long time. I said 2023 I have to get out more and explore more of Atlanta Ga and what they have to offer.

    Make sure to stay tuned and follow my journey @Cece.Atl  or @Cece.atlbucketlist
