Join us for "Crown Connections," an empowering and hands-on workshop inspired by Courtney Brooks' powerful fiber art installation, "This Crown Belongs to US."
This special event, presented by Journey of a Black Girl, you to connect, share, and celebrate the artistry and cultural significance of Black hair braiding. Just as the oversized braids in the exhibition highlight the creativity and importance of Black hair practices, this workshop offers a space to learn, practice, and build community around this cherished tradition.
Come ready to learn, connect, and embrace the beauty and power of our hair.
Courtney Brooks is an Atlanta based visual artist, art instructor and independent curator. Originally from Denver, Colorado, she rekindled her passion for painting by encouraging creativity and connecting communities through the arts.
Atlanta Contemporary presents a public opening celebration of its 2026 Winter/Spring exhibition cycle that explores storytelling, materiality, identity, and embodied experience across a wide range of contemporary art practices.
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.
