LGBT Atlanta is hungry for more events after the close of Pride.
Atlanta organizations and meetup groups have satiated the appetite for end-of-year happenings for the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community with arts, gaming and more.
There is nothing like wine and art to make for a fun night. While not explicitly an LGBT event, an evening at The Museum of Contemporary Art of Georgia —with local artists, crisp white wines, and plenty of creativity on hand —is sure to draw an LGBT-friendly crowd. This Wine and Coloring Night will be held from 7-9 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 26, at MOCA. Tickets are $8, but free if you're a member of MOCA's Art and Social League. The Museum of Contemporary Art of Georgia (MOCA GA), 75 Bennett St. NW, Ste A2, Atlanta.
