Hi folks! Here are the details of the Atlanta Vegan Bake Sale so far:
The sale will be held on Sunday, June 21st from 12:00 PM- 4:00 PM
Lillian from
Criminal Records in Little 5 Points has been kind enough to offer the outside of their store for the bake sale. The address for Criminal Records is:
1154-A Euclid Ave NE
Atlanta GA 30307
If you are unfamiliar with Little 5 Points, please be aware that parking is a bit limited. There is street parking, or you can pay a couple of bucks to park in one of the lots. Please make sure you do not park in Sevananda's parking lot, because they do tow. Or, you could always take MARTA! The following are some helpful directions that we stole right off the Criminal Records website:
Directions via MARTA:
Take an East/West train to the Inman Park/Reynoldstown train station (E3). From the station, exit to the right and head to the bus area on the northside of the station. Get on the #6 bus; for schedules for the #6 bus, go here: http://itsmarta.com/getthere/schedules/6.htm. Ask the driver to drop you off at the intersection of Euclid and Moreland in Little 5 Points (or just ask for Zesto). After you get off the bus, you'll need to cross the street a couple of times, but we're right there, catawampus from the bus stop over by Zesto.
The store is about a 10-minute walk from the station, if you don't want to wait around for the bus. If you'd prefer to walk from the station, exit the station to the right. Go down the stairs and continue walking straight past the bus area toward Hurt St. Take a right on Hurt, walk about a block, then take a right on Euclid Ave. Euclid Ave takes you to the heart of Little 5 Points, and you'll see the new Criminal Records on the right before you get to Moreland intersection.
Driving Directions:
From points north of Atlanta:
* Take I-75/85 SOUTH towards downtown Atlanta. Take Exit 248C ("Freedom Pkwy NE/GA-10 E") and follow that road around the Carter Center.
* At the forks in the road, veer to the right to get to Moreland Avenue (Freedom Parkway deadends on Moreland).
* Turn right onto Moreland Avenue (you'll be heading south).
* Criminal Records is on the right side, across from the post office (you'll pass through one traffic light).
From points south of Atlanta:
* Take I-75/85 NORTH towards downtown Atlanta.
* Take Exit 248C ("Freedom Pkwy NE/GA-10 E") and turn right go around the Carter Center.
* At the forks in the road, veer to the right to get to Moreland Avenue (Freedom Parkway deadends on Moreland).
* Turn right onto Moreland Avenue (you'll be heading south).
* Turn right onto Euclid Avenue.
From downtown Atlanta and other points west:
* Take I-20 EAST (going past Atlanta, towards Athens).
* Take Exit 60B ("US-23 N/Moreland Ave") so that you exit onto Moreland Avenue heading north.
* Continue north on Moreland Avenue for about 1.5 miles to Little 5 Points.
* Turn left onto Euclid Avenue.
From Athens and other points east:
* Take I-20 WEST (towards Atlanta).
* Take Exit 60 ("US-23 N/Moreland Ave") and turn right onto Moreland Avenue so that you're heading north towards Little 5 Points.
* Continue north on Moreland Avenue for about 1.5 miles to Little 5 Points.
* Turn left onto Euclid Avenue.
Helpful Tips:
After going north on Moreland Avenue for about a mile, an over-sized shopping center (with a Target, Barnes & Noble, Petco, and Lowes in it) should appear on your right side, and then after that you should go under a bridge, aaaand then after that you'll be in the heart of Little 5 Points, where Moreland intersects Euclid. If you've come to North Avenue or Ponce De Leon Avenue, you've gone too far and you need to turn around. If you're taking surface streets, it might be useful to know that Moreland Avenue is what the road is called south of Ponce. The same road is called Briarcliff north of Ponce.
And, as you may already know, all proceeds from the Atlanta Vegan Bake Sale will be donated to CatSnip. We do hope you will visit us during the sale and purchase some vegan goodies for a good cause! Also, we still have some openings for bakers. If you would like to participate in the bake sale by baking some goodies to sell, please get in touch with us.
