tlanta is charming year-round for various seasonal reasons. Between May and, like, October, though, that charming seasonal appeal is the oppressive heat and humidity. Atlantans get a solid half-year to practice what it’d be like to walk around in a human mouth and oh boy, it’s an experience. Who knew hair could melt exactly like cotton candy? ATLiens, that’s who.

wee AF venue Paper Ghost Studio wants to offer an opportunity to return to non-mouth living. The gallery preps to throw another installment of its summer-themed show, Frosty Treats, featuring works from folks like killamari, Mike Lowery, Jade Nellans, Barry Lee, Melanie Ponchot, and Josh Thompson, among others. 

??In addition to celebrating the sanctity of the freezer aisle, beach trips, etc. via visual art, the Ghosts will have beverages and ice cream on-hand for piping hot patrons. Tis the season, after all.
