High Museum's special Friday event

To help art lovers digest all that turkey and dressing and to complement its current exhibit "Go West: Art of the American Frontier From the Buffalo Bill Center of the West," the High Museum of Art will host an "Arts & Rec" event from noon to 5 p.m. Friday.

The Homestead Atlanta, a group that promotes heritage practices and sustainable-living approaches, will present artists, crafters, other makers and survivalists demonstrating skills such as canning, metalsmithing, hide tanning and yarn spinning. Admission will be waived for ages 17 and under Friday.
