Woodrow Hall

Birmingham, AL

“5 hours of classic soul spun by the brightest new star DJs on Birmingham’s growing classics scene.

Woodrow Hall is located in the heart of historic Woodlawn, and contains 3800 square feet of uncolumned dance floor space, so get ready to move your feet.

Like Martha said, it doesn’t matter what you wear, just as long as you’re there.
From Smokey to Stevie, from Otis to Isaac. We’ll be spinning all your old favorites. So come down and groove with us on third Thursdays.

$5 gets you in. Doors open at 8, but the DJs spin at 9. This party is for those 21 and up, because a cash bar will be available. And bring some extra folding money, because we may have some vinyl for sale in the lobby.

See you there!”

Alabama Public Television will feature two programs on Tuesday, November 16 that Birmingham residents will be especially interested in seeing.

At 8 p.m., APT will air the documentary “Not My Son,” produced by the University of Alabama’s Center for Public Television. The film focuses on Birmingham’s Carolyn Johnson-Turner, the mother of 20-year-old Rodreckus DeAndrew Johnson, who was shot and killed while attending a birthday party. Ms. Johnson-Turner founded the Parents Against Violence Foundation on March 1, 2004 to help women who have lost loved ones to gun violence cope and to prevent other deaths. The women’s anti-violence activities serve as therapy as the women deal with overwhelming grief.

At 9 p.m., a special edition of “For the Record” will feature members of the Coastal Recovery Commission (CRC) discussing their progress in recommending ways to improve Alabama’s ability to respond to future challenges on the Gulf of Mexico. The CRC, created by Governor Bob Riley, is made up of citizen leaders from Alabama’s coastal region and headed by Mobile Press-Register publisher Ricky Mathews. It is scheduled to deliver its report to the Governor on December 15.

For more information on both programs, visit www.aptv.org.

Help us feed the hungry! Our organic Community Garden produces a variety of vegetables distributed by Magic City Harvest.

“at brick & tin we believe that people should know where their food comes from. since most food consumed by Americans these days travels hundreds or thousands of miles before making it to a hungry mouth, we have carefully sourced our ingredients from purveyors as close to home as possible. we also believe that it is important for people to enjoy food that is free of hormones, chemicals, or other additives. meats prepared here are humanely raised in pastures and free roaming ranges. our purveyors are serious enough about this to pursue and obtain animal welfare certification. we care about our local farmers and support farming that is responsible and sustainable. by doing so, we may help ensure that future generations can share in the same bounty you find before you.”
