Atlanta Contemporary wants to shine a light on some of the current crop of exceptional artist-run spaces operating in the south. Located in our former SHOP (Gallery 6), we invite these spaces for a two month take over - we look forward to seeing how these spaces reflect, expand, and update the ethos of our own early days.

Contemporary Off-Site are exhibitions and programs that take place outside of the galleries.

ART PARTY is Atlanta Contemporary’s signature annual fundraising party. Ticket sales support our exhibitions, public programs, and Studio Artist Program all year.

The annual Nexus Award is a public acknowledgment of those who have made significant contributions to the contemporary arts landscape of Atlanta.

Movement Love introduces movement programming alongside collaborating audio and visual artists. Installations and interactive media define curated classes that blend movement with live projection, music, film, therapeutic resources and conversation for community building.
