Sending Your Big Kids off to College? Dress up your big kid’s dorm room with a touch of home from Pine Cone Hill at Terra Cottage
O
nce upon a time college dorm rooms - cluttered with milk crate bookshelves, sticky soda-stained bean bag chairs and leftover pizza boxes - were a decorator’s nightmare. Today’s kids have it better. At the most recent Westside Provisions District festival, Terra Cottage owner
Sandie Hurlburt raffled off a $1,000 college dorm room makeover. “Pine Cone Hill has the most amazing bedding,” says Hurlburt. “It’s homey but sophisticated and the price point makes it affordable for a college dorm.” Hurlburt has decked out three twin beds in the back of her exquisite Westside Urban Market boutique with fresh, fun Pine Cone Hill patterns and designs. Hurlburt also recommends Dash & Albert rugs, fun lamps and hand made screen prints or wall hangings to send your college bound kid off with style.

S
id Mashburn introduced Westside Provisions District to the classicmeets-modern Mashburn aesthetic when he opened his popular haberdashery in 2007.

The Chiles Are Coming!
Celebrate the unique flavor of New Mexican Hatch chiles at Taqueria del Sol Sunday, September 12
“H
ave you ever tasted a Hatch Chile?” asks Mike Klank, owner of Taqueria del Sol. “No other chile taste like a Hatch chile.” So great is Klank’s devotion to the Hatch chile (Hatch, New Mexico is known as the “chile capital of the world”) that he makes an annual event of the harvest, bringing in pallets of the spicy green peppers each year to roast seasonally at Taqueria del Sol. This year, Taqueria del Sol’s Westside location will host a Hatch Chile Festival from 5:30-8:30pm on Sept. 12 with live music, delicious roasted chiles and more.

BACK TO I
t’s that time again, where kids head back to school and parents head to the spa (or go on a wild decorating spree now that Johnny’s room is free to be converted into that office or media paradise you’ve always dreamed of.) Here are a few back to school suggestions that will fit the fancy of both kids and parents.
From Star Provisions: A “College Student Care Package” containing a reusable shopping bag filled with coffee, mugs, plates, bowls, popcorn, bacon caramel corn, snacks and - of course - a table top ping pong set. $200 including shipping.
O SCHOOL
CORE: “Fall Back into Your Routine” special for September. 12 private sessions or classes @ 20% off (a savings of almost $200!). Good for 8 weeks from the date of purchase. New clients only.
On a student’s budget, nothing hits the spot quite like $10 Burger & Pint night at West Egg Café. Under-21’s can substitute an amazing milkshake for no additional charge. Wednesdays: 5pm - 9pm.
‹————— Room & Board:
Whether your little one is just starting school or heading off to college, she’ll need a comfortable place to study for years to come.

Faces of WSPD
Meet Stacie Lindner and Stuart Horodner (managing and artistic directors respectively) of the Atlanta Contemporary Art Center
Q: Tell us something we don’t know about the Atlanta Contemporary Art Center. A: ACAC public programs feature consequential arts professionals lecturing on a variety of topics. These talks are often scheduled in the evenings on our Free Thursdays. We also have a Studio Artist Program where we support 14 local artists by providing studio space at reasonable rates. Q: What are you exhibiting this fall? A: This summer through fall we are featuring solo exhibitions by Shana Robbins and Amy Myers, who each make contemplative and labor-intensive art. Robbins’s performances, videos, and drawings are inspired by mythology, fashion, and the natural world. Myers’s complex drawings take their cues from physics, botanicals, and technology. Later in the fall, we’ll be presenting a film installation by Laura Poitras, outrageous photographs by Steve Aishman and Jaimie Warren, and a massive architectural sculpture by Mia Feuer.
Stacie loves a good rooftop view and the Westside has some killer views! Stuart highly recommends the panini sandwiches at Toscano and Sons Italian Market.

Maison Atlanta senior designer Bryan Kirkland offers 3 ways to glam up the interior of your home
While the main focus of this newsletter will always be on the shopping and dining amenities you’ll find at Westside Provisions District, we also wanted to take a moment to let you know what a great place White Provision is to work. But, don’t take our word for it. Check out what one of our newest tenants, Fried & Bonder, has to say about what they do and what drew them to WSPD.
An alluring setting: Global Views shows us how the use of one color can enhance your entire room. Here a stainless steel Flower Table is surrounded by Marilyn side and arm chairs in ivory leather layered upon an Arabesque Rug in rich orange tones surrounded by accessories in the same hue.
