Atlanta Contemporary welcomes a local bartender to become the Mixologist-in-Residence – here we invite the purveyors of Atlanta’s cocktail culture to share their story – over a finely crafted drink – with our audiences. 

Ryan started his bartending career in 2015 working at a high end country club, and it’s there he learned his love for mixology. After graduating college in 2016, Ryan went to work for an Atlanta non-profit, The Real Movement, but also continues as an exclusive bartender for private events around the Atlanta area. From anything from private house parties to weddings, Ryan loves being able to connect with people, while potentially making them his personal favorite drink, the gin and Jam.
