Ex- ploring new releases, varietals and winemakers is a great way to expand your personal knowledge of wine. At our Friday evening wine tastings, you can accomplish both and have a heck of a good time doing it. The tastings are usually well-stocked with tables full of friends, conversation and laughter. The tasting is only $5, and you’ll receive 15% off of wine purchases from that night’s se- lections. How cool is that? 17 Russell Farms Road, Alexander City, AL 35010 August 23 – 8:00 p.m. GRAND OPENING FESTIVAL – OUTDOOR CONCERT The Jay and Susie Gogue Performing Arts Center at Auburn University will present Grammy Award winners Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit as the headlining artists for a concert at the Am- phitheatre at the City of Auburn Lawn and Porch, Friday, Aug. 23, at 8 p.m. The outdoor concert, generously sponsored by the Auburn-Opelika Tourism Bureau, is part of a four-day Grand Opening Festival (Aug. 22–Aug. 25) celebrating the Gogue Center’s inaugural season.
