Looks like this week http://www.atlantabotanicalgarden.org/events_and_exhibits/details/corpse_flo wer.htm

I visited the garden last Tuesday and the unopened inflorescence was close to the picture for July 22. There is a sign next to the plant about how stinky it will be when it opens. It was odd to see people read the sign and then say they could smell it already, "just a little". I detected no scent, but the power of the sign was evident. Atalanta was experiencing some cooler weather so I suspect opening might have been delayed some. Maybe this week?
