The Sidewalk Moving Picture Festival is held every August in Birmingham. The celebration is an opportunity for young and aspiring filmmakers to have their work presented to audiences who are just as enthusiastic about the art of creating a memorable movie. The event is an important acknowledgment of independent film and cinema, and attracts some of the most creative minds from all over the world. Also, it is an opportunity to meet key people as various mixers and receptions take place between screenings.

The grooves are still spinning at Charlemagne Record Exchange in Birmingham. The staff gets kudos for not only being extremely knowledgeable, but they are uproariously funny and always try to help you find what you're looking for. And there is plenty of vinyl through which you can rummage. Various LPs and 45s are stocked, and you will want to flip though them all—you never know what you will find. If you select a few discs that you would like to preview, the listening station complete with a turntable and headphones will allow you spin it before you take it home!

The Birmingham Festival Theatre has become synonymous with unforgettable performances. And that reputation has been duly earned, as the entertainment venue has hosted well over 200 productions that have involved more than 50 directors and nearly 1,000 actors and 500 crew people. Staggering numbers to be sure, but even more impressive is that an estimated 100,000 people have watched these various performances. If you are looking for something truly memorable, then make plans to take in a show at the Festival Theatre, where excellence is the only tradition that matters!
