Nina Lee

Nina Lee tells stories the way she lives life—boldly, hilariously, and with just the right amount of chaos. A writer, director, and comedy whisperer, she has Created, Written, and Starred in several her own projects

Her film ARTISTIC, Executive Produced by Lena Waithe and starring football icon Marshawn Lynch, made waves on the festival circuit. She was a finalist on HBO’s Project Greenlight. And landed a Development Deal with Spike Lee and Netflix to co-pen a feature film.

This past summer, she upped the ante—writing and directing her first feature film, That's Her, starring Coco Jones, Emmy Raver-Lampman, Loretta Devine, and more. Backed by They Cloned Tyrone’s Stephen Love, this is just the beginning of her big-screen takeover.

When she’s not making movie magic, Nina is probably changing her hair (again), hanging with her dogs, or plotting her next big move in the industry. One thing’s for sure—she’s just getting started.

Artist Talk with Jiha Moon

Free

Join us for a conversation with Jiha Moon, acclaimed artist and 2023 Guggenheim Fellow, as she reflects on her exhibition Ten Moon and her evolving practice. After relocating from Atlanta to Tallahassee, Moon’s work has shifted to embrace new environments and influences. Ten Moon features her signature blend of paintings, ceramics, and mixed-media works that draw from Korean folk traditions, American pop culture, and digital iconography. At its center is the Shrine series, where paintings and ceramic objects merge into intimate, dreamlike spaces exploring memory, identity, and transformation. Moon will share insights into her practice, the symbolism of the moon as a marker of resilience and change, and her exploration of in-betweenness—where the familiar meets the surreal. Her work is held in major collections including the Hirshhorn, the High Museum of Art, and the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts. This event is free and open to the public.

September 27 / 2:00pm Contemporary Talks

Curator Talk with Youmi Efurd

with a Special Performance by Atlanta Korean Cultural Center (AKCC)

Free

Join us for a special curator talk with Youmi Efurd, curator of the Richardson Family Art Museum at Wofford College, as she discusses two exhibitions currently on view: Shaping Identity: Korean Print in Diaspora and Ten Moon by Jiha Moon. Shaping Identity explores the relationship between cultural heritage, migration, and identity through the lens of printmaking. Featuring works by Tschang Yeul Kim, Kakyoung Lee, U-fan Lee, Jiha Moon, Yoonmi Nam, Nam June Paik, Jean Shin, Joo Yeon Woo, and Jayoung Yoon, the exhibition highlights how Korean and diasporic artists have used printmaking to navigate traditions, hybridity, and belonging across generations. Ten Moon presents a new body of work by Jiha Moon that reflects her transition from Atlanta to Tallahassee and her ongoing exploration of identity, memory, and transformation. Incorporating paintings, ceramics, and mixed media, Moon blends Korean folk traditions, American pop culture, and digital imagery into a vibrant, dreamlike language of resilience and renewal. Efurd will share insights into the curatorial vision behind these exhibitions and discuss how they together reflect themes of cultural continuity, migration, and the evolution of identity. To close the event, the Atlanta Korean Cultural Center (AKCC) will present a Nanta performance, a high-energy percussion show that celebrates Korean culture and traditions through rhythm and movement. Founded in 2008 by HyunSuk Yang, AKCC has performed at national, state, and local festivals with a mission to build community connections through performing arts and education. This event is free and open to the public.
