Nod to your neighbors

Sandy Springs supper favorite, The Select, has transformed into a winter wonderland this December. Enjoy sensational

holiday cocktails like their boozy Hot Cocoa and Mistletoe along with a new

Happy Hour Menu (think

lobster fritters, lamb chops, deviled eggs) that are perfect for kicking off the celebration a little earlier, from 4-6 p.m. Monday-Saturday. 6405 Blue Stone Rd., Ste. 200. theselectatl.com

Step outside the box and take a look into your future through a 25-year-old tradition: the

New Year’s Day Psychic Fair.

More than a dozen psychics, astrologers, palmists and tarot readers will gather at the Hoot Owl Attic Metaphysical Bookstore, where they’ll offer 20-minute

mini-readings to kick off the new year.

DATE NIGHT IN SANDY SPRINGS

Celebrate New Year’s Eve in style. Following a performance by the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra (ASO), the Studio Theatre will be the backdrop for an epic after-party as

2021 turns into 2022. Hors d’oeuvres, a DJ, dance floor and plenty of fun await. Bring someone to kiss at midnight, and you’re all set! 1 Galambos Way. citysprings.com/events/ new-years-eve-after-party

confections made with natural and non-GMO ingredients. Treat your special someone to delectable cupcakes and more. 901 Abernathy Rd., CU 400. zambawango.com

For a memorable date night, make a custom succulent terrarium at one

of The Sipping Plant’s fun BYOB craft classes. If you don’t have a green thumb, don’t worry, as the instructors will walk you through the planting process and give you tips on keeping your new cacti happy and healthy. 6450 Roswell Rd. NE., Ste. B. sippingplant.com
