Join Rosa Duffy, artist and archivist behind TALL AND WILD, in conversation with a dynamic group of archivists and artists as they explore Atlanta’s legacy as a home for Black storytelling and creative labor. Centered around the years 1984 to 1994, this panel will reflect on the role of archives, personal memory, and artistic practice in preserving histories often left in the margins. Together, the speakers will discuss the significance of place, the power of Black craft, and the importance of holding space for stories etched into the land itself.
Join us for a family-friendly art workshop as part of the Contemporary Kids program, where kids of all ages can explore their creativity and engage with the themes of contemporary art!
A Cross Pollination Iron Art Event | by Allen Peterson and Friends
Ticketed
We kick off the new year with a performance art event with Allen Peterson and Friends in which crews of sculptors melt scrap iron and pour it into reusable molds to form bird-sized honeybee forms. Like puppets, these bees “fly” through the night in formations inspired by the dance-based language honeybees use to communicate and cooperate inside the hive.
