Meet artists behind the public art activations that welcomed the globe for world cup.
This year, as Atlanta prepared to welcome the world, more than 75 artists were commissioned to create murals and public works throughout the city. Join the artists behind these projects and the Home Team Exhibition for a conversation about the creative process, the stories and communities that inspired their work, and the role public art plays in shaping Fulton County's cultural identity.
Panelists will share what it took, individually and collectively, to transform public spaces: the hours, the craftsmanship, the problem solving, and the creative camaraderie behind the work. Together, they will consider the lasting legacy of these murals and how the art created to welcome the world will continue to tell Atlanta's story long after the World Cup has ended.
Free and open to the public. RSVP REQUIRED FOR ENTRY
