arts and crafts

We all know Athens has that shop-local, support-local vibe. Everything from contractors to caterers to restaurants, wares, and more, this town is flush with small business entrepreneurs offering goods and services that are truly one-of-a-kind. One organization that often doesn’t get enough word of mouth is the Athens Art Guild. And if you haven’t been to their Friday morning market – you’ve been missing out. Let’s get introduced to this creative community powerhouse!

We all love grabbing a go-bag and hopping in the car the literal moment the last class before a break ends. But if you haven’t made sure your apartment is buttoned up first, you may come home to a not-so-cool surprise or two. Or at the very least an inconvenient situation. 

When you’re gone, a number of things can pop up without your knowledge. And a week or two later, what could have been a quick call to your rental company’s maintenance turns into a huge, awful deal. But you can eliminate pretty much everything except actual emergencies with a little apartment prep.
