Party in theDirty South

SoKno's plan for the night · Oct 1–4

Every week, midweek, a fresh episode of soknoear.com drops — that's the plan-ahead side. This is the night side. The Dirty South is everything you reach by crossing the bridge: Old Sevier, the South Waterfront, Island Home, the Urban Wilderness, the old Kern's Bakery. Come on over — if you dare.
