It’s that time of year again - only 2023 marks our 50th Anniversary! Join us for our annual fundraiser - this year looking a little different - the night will transform the campus with programming, present you with special performances, and of course, Open Studios with our artists in the Studio Artist Program.
The Night’s Happenings
Join us for an amazing evening that underwrites Atlanta Contemporary’s vision to remain free admission, every day. Mix, mingle, move around and enjoy a specialty cocktail provided by esteemed bartenders or by one of our generous sponsors.
Atlanta Contemporary’s VIP Hour will raise a glass to the road paved by artists, curators, donors, visitors, and staff that drove the defining vision that is instilled in Atlanta Contemporary today. After the VIP Hour, you are invited to continue the night – mirrored after bygone years – venture down the rabbit holes with new exhibitions, music performances, surprise activations, and Open Studios!
Artists. Community. Collect. Support.
Meander through the campus and explore activations in the main galleries. Before you venture out, be sure to check out our SHOP, featuring curated artist-made goods and Nexus Press books.
As you step outside, venture into any and every studio - peruse, learn, inquire, and collect - supporting our acclaimed artists participating in the Studio Artist Program.

Join us for a transformative morning of movement and sound at Flow State, a one-hour immersive yoga experience led by Sydney McCall, accompanied by the live sounds of DJ Lowray and DJ Sea.
This is more than just a yoga class—it's an exploration of rhythm, breath, and energy. As Sydney guides you through a mindful flow, DJs Lowray and Sea will shape the soundscape in real-time, creating a fully sensory, meditative environment designed to ground the body and expand the mind.
Whether you're a seasoned yogi or just beginning your practice, Flow State invites you to embrace the process—investigate, explore, and move with intention.
Bring your mat, an open mind, and get ready to vibe.
Stokely's is back August 16, 12 PM-5 PM for another pop-up record shop! We'll have free coffee and some amazing records for sale!
Come by, shop the curated selection, and say hello to the lovely Le'Shawn Taylor.
Come catch a vibe and the beat this week at Atlanta Contemporary’s open mic night! Open to all who have a voice and wanna be heard, or the supportive friends cheering from the crowd, the more the merrier! It’s a night you're gonna regret watching from your friend’s story, so slide through!
