Stacks Squares Opening

Special Event
Opening

Join us for the opening of Corner Office, an exhibition with Stacks Squares in Contemporary On-Site. Visitors are invited to view the exhibition throughout the evening while stopping by the outdoor bar and visiting the chalk muralists as they complete their pieces on the Pavilion.

Stacks Squares is proud to be selected for Atlanta Contemporary’s On-Site Gallery, and thrilled to provide insight in our process: a site-specific mural installation on Carroll Street rotating three times per year. Ten individual 7’x7’ architectural features host continual renewal, with a broad range of cultural backgrounds and diverse talent from first time painters to professional muralists. Participants work next to each other, learning and mentoring, collaborating and celebrating the ephemeral cycle of creation and destruction. Each new round features new original work, with Guest Curators selecting from a diverse pool of applicants.

Crown Connections: A Braiding Workshop Inspired by "This Crown Belongs to US"

Facilitated by Courtney Brooks

Free

"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.
