Escape to Greece and go shopping! Over a dozen authentic vendors set up their shops inside our Agora (Marketplace). Come by to see items created in the Greek tradition, such as fine imported Greek jewelry, handmade linens, hip scarves, delicious Greek cuisine, Greek cookbooks and travel books, decorative art pieces, hand-done oil paintings, beautiful Mediterranean candle holders, glass blown items and wood crafted items from the Holy Land… just to name a few. You will find an endless assortment of items that reflect the Greek culture and its traditions.
We hope everybody had a restful and enjoyable summer! On Sunday, October 5th, at 6:30 pm we are planning to have an informal dinner at Athens Pizza. We will also have our elections for the new HAS board at the same time. If you have ideas about new activities that we could organize this year, please let us know.
Athens Pizza is located at:
1341 Clairmont Road
Decatur, GA 30033

See you on October 5th!
On behalf of the HAS Board,

The Greek Festival is here, and so are the after parties! Our Saturday Greek Night will be at Taverna Plaka, where we’ll have a private event just for us in the entire back room. We’re also delighted to have the best music played by DiscoHristo! We’re anticipating a large crowd, so we may also add the front room later in the night.
These events are a great way to bring everyone together and party after a hard day’s work serving up gyros and frappedes…please invite anyone that I missed or am not connected to. Looking forward to this year’s Greek Fest with you all!
