Atlanta Ballet’s Winter Ball at The St. Regis Buckhead was a joyous affair with Atlanta Ballet Company dancers, Trustees, and donors toasting to the future of Atlanta Ballet. The celebrations continued at the March, April, and May performances. Atlanta Ballet’s Artistic Director Gennadi Nedvigin selected three choreographers, Craig Davidson, Tara Lee, and Maxim Petrov, to create brand new ballets for the 17|18 Season, pushing the Company and the artform forward. Gennadi touched on his desire for the Company to have a strong classical foundation and also be pushed by new approaches to ballet technique in the May issue of Pointe magazine: “I want my dancers to have an appreciation for the classics while looking forward to new creations…The more styles you learn, the better dancer you become.” The entire article is worth reading.

    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.

  • The Atlanta Preservation Center's
    THE ATLANTA PRESERVATION CENTER’S Phoenix2017 Flies A CELEBRATION OF ATLANTA’S HISTORIC SITES FREE CITY-WIDE EVENTS PRESERVEATLANTA.COM Welcome to Phoenix Flies ust as the Grant Mansion, the home of the Atlanta Preservation Center, was being constructed in the mid-1850s, the idea of historic preservation in America was being formulated. It was the invention of women, specifically, the ladies who came J together to preserve George Washington’s Mount Vernon. The motives behind their efforts were rich and complicated and they sought nothing less than to exemplify American character and to illustrate a national identity. In the ensuing decades examples of historic preservation emerged along with the expanding roles for women in American life: The Ladies Hermitage Association in Nashville, Stratford in Virginia, the D.A.R., and the Colonial Dames all promoted preservation as a mission and as vehicles for teaching contributive citizenship. The 1895 Cotton States and International Exposition held in Piedmont Park here in Atlanta featured not only the first Pavilion in an international fair to be designed by a woman architect, but also a Colonial Kitchen and exhibits of historic artifacts as well as the promotion of education and the arts. Women were leaders in the nurture of the arts to enrich American culture. Here in Atlanta they were a force in the establishment of the Opera, Ballet, and Visual arts. Early efforts to preserve old Atlanta, such as the Leyden Columns and the Wren’s Nest were the initiatives of women. The Atlanta Preservation Center, founded in 1979, was championed by the Junior League and headed by Eileen Rhea Brown.

  • Poets, Artists & Madmen
    POETS, ARTISTS & MADMEN tlanta’s art scene is on the verge of something significant — teetering between mak- ing it and breaking it. Long Aregarded as a creative hodgepodge, the city’s poets, artists and madmen have worked tirelessly in the last year to help redefine the city’s artistic identity. They attracted international attention with the colossal grassroots street art conference Living Walls, improved our public art profile with gloATL and Art on the Belt- line, and cultivated the kind of TV- and filmmaking-friendly environment that’s allowed for the conversion of Lakewood Fairgrounds into a Hollywood-worthy soundstage, and the local filming of AMC’s “The Walking Dead.” So what does the future hold for the arts in Atlanta?

Box 5867 Atlanta, Georgia 31107 Ms. Smith: Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to review your organization’s current marketing techniques and suggesting new ways to boost your current results. Overall, we found that Dad’s Garage has great potential to expand its marketing of its current products but also has many areas that need improvement. There needs to be major changes to the organization’s website, such as creating a mobile friendly version, updating product and organizational information, and adding interactive components to enhance user experience; customer service, such as responding and resolving customer grievances, enhancing open communication methods so that guests can contact staff when there’s an issue and/or question; and establishing the most effective plans for the target market, such as monitoring the way Millennials use the internet, joining social media platforms that Millennials use more often, and providing the right content that will entice the intended market to utilize the products offered by the organization. This marketing evaluation and plan analyzes the current state of the organization with its current resources and explores in detail the main areas of improvement and presents innovative ideas to boost marketing results and the overall attendance and utilization of Dad’s Garage products and programs. Thank you again for the opportunity and please find attached the analysis and suggestions to take Dad’s Garage to the next level in the Atlanta theatre market.
