"Style is something each of us already has, all we need to do is find it." —Diane von Furstenberg. Find your new style during Greenville’s Fashion Week, located at Zen from July 22nd-25th. Grab a front row seat to friendly competition, including ones for Emerging Designer, Top Model, and the Kids/Tweens Show.

GVL can sure throw a party. Check out their Flipside Live Music 90’s Glow Party for a free & fun summer jamboree. Expect your favorite 90’s hits, glow sticks, delicious food, and cold drinks. Who says you have to spend a lot of money to have a great time?


This Saturday, stop by the Fine Arts Center for a classical music experience from four composers. Caroline Shaw, Edgar Meyer, Reinaldo Moya Yara, and Dvořák will create “one living experiment” through the connections of their pieces, featuring the cello, bass, and strings. For only $44.52, attend “The Great Experiment” this weekend.
The ingredients are simple: homemade bread, creamy mayo, and a sliced, garden tomato. The result, however, is anything but ordinary. See for yourself at TR’s 11th Annual Tomato Sandwich Taste-Off, where individuals will sample and vote on their favorites from the following groups: Feed & Seed, Commvault, Sun Belly Cafe, Prisma Health, Joybird, Core 450, and the Community Tap. Tickets start at $32. Proceeds will benefit the TR Farmers Market; support local!


“Dim the lights… here we go.” Do you have what it takes to be the Mill’s next singing sensation? See for yourself during the Mill Idol, a karaoke competition with a high winning cash prize. Finals will take place on July 25th, with 18 contestants. First place will win $500! This fun & festive event is free to join and spectate so get out there, and show them what you got.
