On Sun., April 19, the folks over at Indie Craft Experience (ICE) will present their spring Salvage market. The event will host over 40 vendors selling everything from clothing to furniture and books — all hailing from different decades. While shopping, patrons are encouraged to wear their favorite vintage outfit. There will be photographers on hand to shoot those who don their best throwback get-up to compete for the title of Best Dressed, which judges will announce at 4:30 p.m. In addition to shopping in style, hungry visitors will have a wide variety of food vendors to choose from, including the Deli at Candler Park Market, Atomic Ice Cream Sandwich, and Golda Kombucha. DJ Zano will also be present, and the first 100 attendees will receive swag bags designed by Heather Lund Illustration. The event will be held at clatl.com/atlanta/yaarab-shrine-center/Location?oid=1301349Yaarab Temple and admission is $5, cash only. For more details, click here.

Ranging from nascent teen zinesters to contemporary visual artists, Mumur’s upcoming exhibition Ephemeral Memorable showcases work in a range of media that finds inspiration in ephemeral media. Co-curated by Chanel Kim, Allie Bashuk, and Amanda Mills, the show highlights the relevance of ephemera and its scope within contemporary artistic practices. Shown at clatl.com/atlanta/the-mammal-gallery/Location?oid=9343966the Mammal Gallery, the exhibition’s opening night will feature a live scoring by Outer Gods of an excerpt of “The Woman of the Snow,” as well as live performances by Henry Detweiler and Jake Cook.

SATURDAY
For one night only, Collective Rituals, MINT’s intern exhibition, will showcase the work of Sarah Bell, CJ Fowlkes, and Ross Hepner, who collaboratively organized, curated, and installed the entire exhibition from its inception. The team, seeking to find an overlap between their contrasting styles, harnesses the power of experimentation and discovery in a visual representation of a constantly repeated and redefined set of unknown processes. All of their individual work culminates in an untitled “exquisite corpse” collaboration, which will span across half of MINT’s largest gallery wall. Music during the event will be curated by secret guest DJ’s, and cold beverages will be available. The event will be held on Sat., April 18 from 8-11 p.m. For more information, click here.
