Two Must Attend Events This Week

It’s In Your Genes Fashion Show

“It’s in Your Genes,” sponsored by the Atlanta Jewish Gene Screen, is a denim fashion show featuring new looks from Atlanta’s most stylish jeans boutiques. Tickets for the event include an open beer and wine bar (for those 21 and older) and hors d’oeuvres, as well as a spectacular fashion event, DJ and dancing. Guests can upgrade to VIP for free parking, access to special lounge and private bar and reserved seating for the fashion show.

I am so excited be attending this event with my friend Emily Lipman, whose boutique, Raw Denim, is showcasing in the fashion show.

What do two fifty-four foot helicopters, thirty catering companies, dozens of performers and three football fields worth of film sets have in common?  The Next Cool Event would be the answer.

The press has been alerted, it is official The Next Cool Thing is coming back in 2012! The Next Cool Event, a spectacular display of the talented film industry professionals has tripled in size and will taking over the Atlanta Exposition Center (Three football fields) February 17 & 18, 2012.

In 2011 founder and producer, Barbara English, launched The Next Cool Thing in hopes to show film industry decision makers that everything they need for a first class production is right here in Georgia.

The event was a bigger sensation than anyone could have ever imagined.  Film makers, celebrities, executives, hipsters, trendsetters and socialites filled the westside warehouse to check out what was really behind the curtains of the Georgia Film Industry. The event had my vote as I walked the red carpet and strolled onto the set of  Sex and The City and then hopped on over to the seductive James Bond set and then through the trenches of Star Wars. The event was dotted with the upper cusp of Atlanta’s social buzzers and even a celebrity or two (Tyler Perry strolled the event incognito). My favorite sets were Six Feet Under, James Bond, Sex and The City and Black Swan.

What to expect this year: 

Three football fields of designer sets themed as iconic movies and television shows. Delicious food from over 30 of Atlanta’s best caterers. Surprises around every corner including non-stop performances through out the entire weekend.

why

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disease affecting approximately 30,000 children and young adults in the United States.
CF causes the body to produce an abnormally thick mucus that clogs the lungs and leads to life-threatening lung infections. This mucus also obstructs the pancreas and interferes with digestion.
The median life expectancy for a CF patient is 37 years.
