Alpharetta residents Lisa and Dave Amundsen opened Le Macaron in North Point Mall in October 2019 and are opening a second location in Alpharetta’s Avalon. The Avalon location will be the first-of-its-kind outdoor mobile kiosk in all of Le Macaron’s approximately 70 locations nationwide. With just about 90 square feet of space, the Amundsen’s Le Macaron kiosk will be a cozy and intimate addition to Avalon’s spacious footprint. Beyond those simple yet elegant French patisseries called macarons, the new kiosk will offer eclairs, tarts, mini-tarts, napoleons, gourmet chocolates, meringues, cakes, and specialty beverages including Lorina, a sparkling French lemonade.
Le Macaron will be serving their macarons and French pastries at the Grand Opening event, and will be giving away “macarons for a year” to one lucky winner, a $200 value!

Special Virtual Presentation: Gee's Bend |
Chamber Member ACT1 Theater (“Alpharetta’s Home for Community Theater”), in partnership with the City of Alpharetta Department of Recreation, Parks & Cultural Services, celebrates Black History Month with a special virtual presentation of Gee’s Bend. Gee's Bend depicts the turbulent history of African-Americans in the 20th century by focusing on a single family in the real community of Gee's Bend, AL, which is now famous for the beautiful quilts created by the women that grew up there. Gospel songs weave in and out of this hauntingly beautiful work. This production was filmed in the Black Box Theater of the Alpharetta Arts Center, and thanks to the City of Alpharetta, is offered free to the public. The show will air On Demand either February 19 & 20, or February 26 & 27. Passes available at www.act1theater.com.
