The Giving Season Doesn't End With The Holidays
The holiday season has officially come to an end. It’s a new year and Santa is long gone, on the beach in Barbados for a month before grinding out toys for next year. Resolutions of fitness and balanced diets are already beginning to fade into ... Read more
Ringing In The New Year

No Confusion On The Southside
State of Confusion. The name alone piques an undeniable interest; it pays homage to the unique former found object findery that once occupied the same lot. It seemed to almost happen overnight, one day a closed down old antique store, and as if ... Read more
Reinventing Community Travel
Community. What does that word mean when we break it down and focus on its underlying intent? What could pass for just a word becomes exemplified, a core value inherent in The Moxy, our newest boutique hotel. In Chattanooga’s explosive growth ... Read more
Celebrating The Southside
24-hour segments seem to come and go at blazing speed, often with little distinction between a Tuesday and a Thursday. The hours of our lives flow on and it becomes all too easy to have a moment of clarity and wonder how it’s already autumn again. Read more
Meet The Mad Priest Of Coffee
It can be blindingly easy to walk past. Another new place, another same ol’ same ol’. “Meet the new boss, same as the old boss sings;” the old adage. Another coffee shop, they come and go like morning dew. It’s when we decide to stop and take a ... Read more
In The Kitchen With Ben Park

London Is Calling Chattanooga
I never thought I’d see the day, but phone booths are coming back to Chattanooga. Well, at least one is. But it may remind Chattanooga natives more of a Doctor Who TARDIS than the traditional blue-framed falling apart American version. It will ... Read more
All About The Center City

State of the Arts 2018: Jennifer Edge
