Let’s be real about this for a moment: Nashville is a drinking city. So what do you do when you’d like to take a pause — for a month, for the year, forever — in a place like this?
Out, About: Christmas celebrations for elves of all ages
While our annual list is still on the way (patience, people!), it did get me thinking about how much the Christmas cheer is devoted to drinking with your 20-and-30-something friends in this city. So, here’s some options for the whole fam.
Out, About: (Early) Halloween celebrations this weekend
Halloween is on a Thursday this year — boo (and not the fun kind)! But that means many of us are planning to get all dressed up this weekend. Here in Nashville, the ways to celebrate pretty much fall into three buckets.
Out, About: More national love for Nashville’s food scene
The Nashville food scene is getting a lot of love lately from national outlets. The New York Times, for the second time in as many weeks, has published a list including the best Nashville eateries.
Out, About: Where to get your groove on
I have done a lot of dancing this week — between both Chappell Roan and Charli XCX’s local shows — and it has once again reminded me that there are not nearly enough places to go out dancing in this city.
Out, About: Where can you pick apples around here?
If your friend groups are anything like mine, the group chats started asking promptly on Sept. 1, “Who’s down for apple picking?” and ever since, the question has been: “Where?”
Out, About: Hispanic Heritage Month in Middle Tennessee
So, with all those independence days tied into the month, HHM is more about rights than many realize. A great example of this right now is the ¡Printing the Revolution! exhibit at the Frist Art Museum, which is showcasing the rise and impact of Chicano graphics.
Out, About: Centennial Park’s main attraction on summer nights
On the corner of 27th Avenue North and West End, there’s this unassuming stage — that is, when it’s not being used.
Out, About: Nashville’s best movie theater is a park
So many of my favorite childhood memories with my best friend are us going to the movies. We had the typical theater that played the summer blockbusters, a budget theater that would get the latest superhero flick a couple weeks late but only charged a few dollars to watch it in an otherwise empty theater, and the drive-in that offered just a couple family-friendly films at a time.
Out, About: The sweet origin of a Nashville ice cream company
I first had Saturated ice cream from a pick-up window at Brightside Bakeshop in the pandemic. I trekked over to the East location in a cloth mask (#tbt) for the pop-up because I was familiar with owner Lokelani Alabanza’s incredible creations at Hattie Jane’s Creamery.
