Atlanta's Vibrant Arts & Culture Scene

Atlanta is well known for its vibrant art community, and while most are familiar with places such as The High Museum, there is an immense art presence throughout Atlanta, if you know where to look and explore. Take in the colorful and the creative at these hidden gems.

The Goat Farm Arts Center

The Goat Farm Arts Center is a visual and performing arts center located in West Midtown. The center is housed in a 19th-century complex of industrial buildings and contains the studio space of over 300 artists. Goat Farm hosts music concerts, traditional and experimental theatrical performances, film screenings, contemporary dance performances, art exhibitions, artist residency programs, and professional ballet and contemporary dance classes. It is also home to resident performance companies gloATL, Saiah Theater, and The Collective Project.

The BeltLine

Art on the Atlanta BeltLine celebrates the voices, experiences, and values of all Atlantans through the work of hundreds of visual artists, performers, and musicians along the Atlanta BeltLine corridor – touching almost 20 intown communities. Art on the Atlanta BeltLine began in 2010 as a way to encourage people to explore the Atlanta BeltLine in an interim state – after rails were removed, but before concrete was poured. All of the exhibitions and programming are free and open to the public, making art accessible to numerous communities around the Atlanta BeltLine. Participation in the exhibition also showcases the work of established and emerging artists from Atlanta and beyond.

MODA

Museum of Design Atlanta (MODA) is the only museum in the Southeast devoted exclusively to the study and celebration of all things design. MODA, (formerly known as the Atlanta International Museum of Art & Design) is a participating member of the Smithsonian Affiliate program, and examines how design affects our daily lives through engaging exhibitions, educational outreach, and special events designed to initiate conversation and community dialogue. MODA regularly features exhibitions highlighting architecture, industrial and product design, interiors and furniture, graphics, fashion and more. In 2003, MODA’s Board of Directors, staff, and community advisers made the collective decision to redefine the Museum’s mission and direction, and the Museum of Design Atlanta was born.

Whitespace Gallery

Discretely tucked into an 1893 carriage house behind an Inman Park Victorian, Whitespace Gallery is an inviting, elegant space that feels far from a traditional art gallery. Whitespace spotlights a diverse roster of talent, including many emerging artists. From photography to video to sculpture, the space is known for giving untested artists a shot, and is a true hidden gem in the Atlanta arts community.
