This effort, known as the Metro Atlanta Arts Collaborative, is being undertaken on behalf of every professional arts organization in Atlanta. It is being led by a working group representing the organizations listed below.

Our
Values

Collaboration

Our goal is to build and nourish mutually beneficial relationships within Atlanta’s arts ecosystem. When one of us succeeds, we all succeed.


Inclusivity

We endeavor to represent the broad diversity of arts organizations in Atlanta and the people and cultures they serve.


Growth

We advocate for a new way of funding the arts in Atlanta—and for the positive change that can be made in our city when arts organizations are fully capitalized.


Innovation

We believe that new models for funding the arts are possible and that Atlanta can lead the nation in pioneering new ways to support the arts and their potential to help cities grow and develop.


The arts are not just amenities; they are critical infrastructure for vibrant, prosperous cities.
