The Goat Farm Arts Center and the Atlanta Film Festival present Sound & Vision, a killer combination of live bands, short films, installation pieces, and music videos (a.k.a., Something You Don’t Want To Miss). ATLFF creative director Kristy Breneman has really outdone herself with her curated line-up of bands and music videos, with local heroes http://clatl.com/cribnotes/archives/2014/10/10/hello-ochos-debut-gets-a-vinyl-releaseHello Ocho and http://clatl.com/atlanta/dipping-into-the-surreal/Content?oid=13249536DIP being some of the highlights. Among nine groups of talented artists is http://clatl.com/atlanta/living-walls-molly-rose-freeman/Content?oid=6125653Molly Rose Freeman, who will showcase her elegant revolving sculpture work as one of the large-scale installations displayed at the event. If experimental film, music, and art aren’t enough to tempt you, maybe the food or music video competition will. Regardless, this is the kind of event your friends will be talking about the next day. More information and tickets can be found here. ?? ?

The Atlanta Zine Library is getting a facelift as well as an *cough* augmentation *cough*. In addition to a makeover of the library itself, over one hundred new zines are being added to the existing collection. To celebrate the changes, Hodgepodge Coffee House and Gallery will partner with Murmer in hosting live readings by Hadass Wade, Lee Furey, Sarah Padgett, Hira Mahmood, John Lloyd Hannah, Whitney Hansen, and CL contributors Beca Grimm and Muriel Vega. The readers will stay true to the theme of this year’s Atlanta Zine Fest, http://clatl.com/freshloaf/archives/2015/02/20/atlanta-zine-fest-2015-announces-theme-girlsgirls and girlhood in DIY, by focusing on works which approach the complicated nature of “feminine expression.” The event will be held on Fri., March 27m from 6:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. Although the event is free, participants who donate the suggested $5 will receive a free Murmur zine. More info available here. ?? ?
