Try Out a Supper Club

You feel like going out to dinner but don't want the evening to end there. And going to a movie doesn't quite offer the interaction you want with your date. How about going to a supper club for dinner and dancing?

Where, you ask?

Well, Primo's Steak & Louisiana Cuisine, here in Baton Rouge, has announced it is now offering dancing beginning at 9pm Wednesday through Saturday nights. Noting the over-40 crowd isn't into "clubbing" but is looking for late-night entertainment, Primo's will be playing standard and pop tunes spanning the 40's to the 80's.

Primo's General Manager, Matt Merchant, took note of how busy Sullivan's Steakhouse has been and saw the market potential.

And How About This for an Evening Out?...

I can't say it better than the way it's written up by Country Roads Magazine:

Forum 35's sizzling summer juried art exhibition is in the wings again, promising to bring cutting-edge contemporary art together in the capital city for a fourth time. Last year thousands turned out for this event, drawn by the promise of fresh, challenging new artistic expressions by those who will define what contemporary art in our region looks like in years to come.

This year, The Art Melt looks like spilling out of the Shaw Center, to fill not just the Brunner Gallery, but also the Lyceum Dean Building (Third Street) with juried art, hors d'oeuvres, live musical entertainment, and performances by many big names in the capital city's performing arts arena—Baton Rouge Ballet, Swine Palace Theatre, Baton Rouge Symphony, Of Moving Colors Productions, and Baton Rouge Little Theater.

Admission is free; a cash bar keeps things lubricated; and should you feel compelled to take a little piece of Louisiana's visual arts future home with you, all included artwork will be for sale, with proceeds to benefit the Community Fund for the Arts and its member organizations. 7 pm–10 pm, downtown. All works will remain on display at Brunner Gallery through July 21. (225) 281-2032 or http://www.artmelt.org/.
