ATLANTA TTN PROGRAMS:
Guo Pei: Couture Beyond Exhibition at SCAD
Join us in January as we revisit the
G
uo Pei: Couture Beyond Exhibition at SCAD Fashion which was cancelled to the public last minute in October.
T
his will be a docent-led tour to avoid any museum closure issues. Those who have free passes from the last visit may use them.
The date and time is Friday, January 19th, at 11:30am. We will meet in the Fashion Museum lobby between 11:15 and 11:30. Following the tour, we will have lunch at a nearby restaurant.
This solo exhibition highlights the work of acclaimed fashion designer Guo Pei, the first Chinese national designer invited to join the prestigious Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture.
SCAD Fashion Museum is extending a group rate price of $5/person instead of their standard general admission price of $10/regular, $8/senior or military so don't miss out on this great opportunity. Please RSVP for this event to Peggy
Bartolotta at
Address: 1600 Peachtree Street, NE Atlanta, GA 30309

A New Year, A New Opportunity
We welcome our new year and the many opportunities it will bring in friendships, activities and the overall enjoyment of life.
"Drop the last year into the silent limbo of the past. Let it go, for it was imperfect, and thank God it can go."
Brooks Atkinson
"For last year's words belong to last year's language and next year's words await another voice."
T.S. Eliot
"The object to a new year is not that we should have a new year. It is that we should have a new soul."
G.K. Chesterton
