Athens Today--January 13

TGIF. Really, TG.

Today, from 6 to 8pm, come to Hendershot’s for the opening of a show by local photographer Tobin Russell Brogunier entitled, “Monuments to Empire.” It looks at the nuts and bolts of American civilization and its drive-ins, gas stations and commercial strips.

If you want to get the bejesus scared out of you, and want a reason for getting a flu shot, see “Contagion” today at the UGA Tate Student Center. It plays through Sunday and shows at 3, 6, and 9. Tickets are $2, $1 for students who’ve paid their fees.

The Clarke County School District is doing something different this year. When you want into an elementary school, you’ll see on the wall a poster, made just for that school, that highlights the school’s individual achievements and student performance. Love your schools.

On Saturday, from 2:30 to 3pm, come to the Sandy Creek Nature Center to enjoy a story and perhaps to see an animal or two. If you have time, you can take in Cook's Trail, which will give you the feel of being in the mountains.
