Metro Atlanta Cultural Assessment APPENDIX E: CULTURAL FACILITIES by COUNTY metro atlanta cultural assessment APPENDIX E: CULTURAL FACILITIES BY COUNTY appendix E list of cultural facilities by county Arts and Culture facilities exist in all 10 counties of the Metro Atlanta region, though less than a quarter of cultural organizations currently use a facility dedicated solely to their organization. Given that there are far more organizations than dedicated cultural facilities, many organziations have taken to using facilities that allow cultural programming as a supplementary form of programming. Of the 641 cultural facilities mapped, 400 are facilities whose primary use is for cultural programming, with 241 facilties allowing for cultural programming as a secondary use. Facilities indexed include, but not necessarily are limited to, visual and performing arts facilities as well as cultural facilities that provide service to the public, including museums, galleries, libraries, arts performance venues, cultural centers and interpretive sites. Facility information was gathered through surveys sent to cultural organizations, who provided information on where they currently provide programming. Additional information was provided by the Metro Atlanta Arts Fund and from Public Broadcasting Atlanta via www.atlantaplanit.com A complete list of the facilities and facility type is listed below by county, with an indication of whether the facility is a primary (p) or secondary (s) cultural facility . Additional data on the physical location of facilities has been collected, and may be accessed by request from the Atlanta Regional Commission. 2 | METRO ATLANTA CULTURAL ASSESSMENT APPENDIX E Cherokee County Cagle’s Family Farm, Performance (s) Canton Theatre, Performance (p) Cherokee Arts Center, Gallery / Performance (p) Cherokee County History Museum and Visitors Center, Museum (p) City Center Auditorium, Performance (s) Elm Street Cultural Arts Village, Gallery / Performance (p) Historic Downtown Canton, Performance (s) Reinhardt University, The Falany Performing Arts Center, Performance (p) Rock Barn, Performance (p) Tanglewood Farm, Other (s) Towne Lake Arts Center, Gallery / Performance (p) VantagePoint Studios & Fine Art Gallery, Gallery (p) Clayton County Arts Clayton Gallery, Gallery (p) Clayton College, Arts & Science Theatre, Performance (p) Clayton State Theatre, Performance (p) National Archives at Atlanta, Library (s) Spivey Hall (Clayton State), Performance (p) Cobb County 3E Community Center, Inc. , Other (s) AB Gallery, Gallery (p) Art Place - Mountain View, The, Gallery / Performance (p) Art Station - Big Shanty, The, Gallery (s) Artisan Resource Center, Gallery (p) Avery Gallery, Inc., Gallery (p) Avisca Fine Art, Gallery (p) Bailey Performance Center, Don Russell Clayton Gallery, Gallery (p) Blank Stage, The, Performance (p) Centerstage North Theatre Inc, Performance (p) Class Act Theatre, Performance (p) Cobb County Central Library, Gallery (s) Cobb County Civic Center, Performance (s) Cobb County Public Library System, The Georgia Room, Library (s) Cobb County Youth Museum, Gallery (p) Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre - 2nd Hall, Performance (p) Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre - Main Hall, Performance (p) Cobb Galleria Performing Arts Center, Performance (p) Cobb Playhouse and Studio - Main Stage, Performance (p) Cobb Playhouse and Studio - Second Stage, Performance (p) Depot, The, Other (p) East Cobb Park, Performance (s) First United Methodist Church of Marietta, Performance (s) METRO ATLANTA CULTURAL ASSESSMENT APPENDIX E | 3 Frameworks Gallery, Gallery (p) Gallery 4463, Gallery (p) Georgia Ballet Studios, The, Performance (p) Glover Park, Other (s) Griffin Middle School, Performance (s) Hillgrove High School, Performance (s) Historic Downtown Acworth, Performance (s) Historic Mable House, Performance (p) Holy Family Catholic Church, Performance (s) Jennie T.

  • Objectivity, Interdisciplinary Methodology, and Shared Authority
    ABSTRACT HISTORY TATE. RACHANICE CANDY PATRICE B.A. EMORY UNIVERSITY, 1987 M.P.A. GEORGIA STATE UNIVERSITY, 1990 M.A. UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN- MILWAUKEE, 1995 “OUR ART ITSELF WAS OUR ACTIVISM”: ATLANTA’S NEIGHBORHOOD ARTS CENTER, 1975-1990 Committee Chair: Richard Allen Morton. Ph.D. Dissertation dated May 2012 This cultural history study examined Atlanta’s Neighborhood Arts Center (NAC), which existed from 1975 to 1990, as an example of black cultural politics in the South. As a Black Arts Movement (BAM) institution, this regional expression has been missing from academic discussions of the period. The study investigated the multidisciplinary programming that was created to fulfill its motto of “Art for People’s Sake.” The five themes developed from the program research included: 1) the NAC represented the juxtaposition between the individual and the community, local and national; 2) the NAC reached out and extended the arts to the masses, rather than just focusing on the black middle class and white supporters; 3) the NAC was distinctive in space and location; 4) the NAC seemed to provide more opportunities for women artists than traditional BAM organizations; and 5) the NAC had a specific mission to elevate the social and political consciousness of black people. In addition to placing the Neighborhood Arts Center among the regional branches of the BAM family tree, using the programmatic findings, this research analyzed three themes found to be present in the black cultural politics of Atlanta which made for the center’s unique grassroots contributions to the movement. The themes centered on a history of politics, racial issues, and class dynamics.
