It's that time of year again! The night will transform the campus with programming, special performances, and, of course, Open Studios featuring our artists in the Studio Artist Program.
THEME: AtlantaVerse
This year's ART PARTY theme is ATLANTAVERSE, which explores the concept of Atlanta's heritage and various boroughs as distinct, interconnected universes. Each universe is a unique space where creativity, culture, and community collide, all driven by the vibrant spirit of Atlanta. This year at ART PARTY, we celebrate the artists who bring these different realms to life, showcasing the many facets of Atlanta's past, present, and future.

"Crown Connections" is more than just a braiding workshop; it's a celebration of self-identity, cultural pride, and the powerful connection forged through the shared experience of Black hair. It's an opportunity to honor the moments we learned to adorn our hair in every texture, color, and style, and to recognize the inherent beauty and regality of our crowns.
