About Atlanta Food & Wine Month:
At Grape Crush Productions we believe the culinary arts are a vital part of a city's culture. In partnership with the City of Atlanta (Office of Cultural Affairs), we are celebrating the local food and wine scene for an entire month with exciting events at diverse venues. Atlanta Food & Wine Month, now in its second year, effectively fuses the love of food and wine with all art forms in a series of special events highlighting the best venues, chefs, restaurants, sommeliers, art galleries, retailers and more that our city has to offer. April is also Jazz Appreciation Month and many events will feature live entertainment from Atlanta's best jazz artists. From wine tasting parties at art galleries and clothing boutiques, to hot restaurant meal deals - locals and visitors alike are encouraged to eat, sip and savor all around town!

SHOEBOX PROJECT 2010
We're hosting a "shoe box party" during the Women's LifeStyle Expo in support of the United Way of Metropolitan Atlanta! Each year, individuals and companies throughout the metro area donate toiletries and decorate shoeboxes to be filled with the personal items and given to homeless women and children. Last year, more than 12,500 shoeboxes were distributed to more than 80 homeless shelters across our 13-county area. The goal this year is 20,000 shoeboxes - we need your help! Please donate to the toiletry drive. All guests making a donation will be eligible to win cool prizes including theater tickets courtesy of Broadway Across America Atlanta!
Bloomingdale's is partnering with the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) from April 1 through April 22 to celebrate Earth Month. The partnership will be executed through various in-store and online events, visual elements, loyalty programs, special philanthropic merchandise and marketing materials. Bloomingdale's will be creating Little Green Boutiques in stores across the country, featuring exclusive merchandise such as a green water bottle, reusable tote bag and sustainable umbrella. A portion of the proceeds of every item in the shops benefits the NRDC, including 10% of the proceeds from the sale of the Little Green Card, an electronic gift card that can be purchased at any denomination. As an added surprise, shoppers will be treated to a special matchbook seed packet takeaway at registers as a reminder to take care and give back to our environment.
