Taste of Underground
You Have One More Chance to Indulge at A Taste of Underground

The last A Taste of Underground Atlanta will be next Thursday, June 4 with some new elements in store


ATLANTA –
A Taste of Underground Atlanta was a hit in April and May, and if you missed it, you have one last chance to take your lunch hour up a notch on Thursday, June 4.  You will enjoy everything from barbeque to Jamaican cuisine to authentic Irish eats, live entertainment by saxophonist Jason Bitten, giveaways and special offers, and if you’re on a budget, you are in even more luck:  A Taste of Underground Atlanta is one of the best deals in town, AND your donation goes to the Atlanta Community Food Bank.
 

The last A Taste of Underground Atlanta will also feature a special performance by SCAD-Atlanta in conjunction with the Split Level of Consciousness Exhibition taking place at Underground Atlanta through June 20.  At 11 a.m., artist and seasoned climber Danny Paulete will be ascending the 138-foot Peach Drop tower of Underground Atlanta with a canvas, which he will then attach at the top.  Then, he will descend the tower while painting on the way down.  By the end of this three-hour process, an image will be revealed to the audience to marvel upon and ponder its meaning. 

For the second performance beginning at 12:30 p.m., entitled, “Dancing’, Swingin’ and Getting’ Our Paint On,” Deidra Tyree will provide a performance piece for the whole family at the pavilion encompassing music, dancing and painting.  With help from a few artists and/or audience members, Deidra will execute action painting on three dancers while live music plays in the background.  A large drop cloth canvas underneath will catch the paint as it falls creating an unknown image for the viewers and the artists.  There will be live music before, during and after the performance.
