The Creatives Project (TCP)

Join us on June 2 for Dual Concepts, a teen art exhibition presented by ChopArt, () in partnership with Atlanta Mission, (atlmission) and The Creatives Project.

This exhibition marks the culmination of our outreach collaboration with youth at Atlanta Mission’s My Sister’s House and features artwork created by teens alongside TCP resident artists through workshops in photography, collage, ceramics, portraiture, and experimental making.

More than art instruction, these sessions became spaces for self-expression, confidence-building, collaboration, and community care.

For many of the teens involved, this is the first time their work will be publicly exhibited and offered for sale. Every cent from artwork sales goes directly back to the teens.
Come celebrate these young artists, support their creativity, and experience an evening centered on art, community, and connection.

🗓 June 2, 2026
⏰ 7–9 PM
📍 Bellows Film Lab
1140 Euclid Ave
FREE + Open to the Public

A special thank you to our incredible cohort for the care, creativity, and dedication they brought to this collaboration with the teens:

TCP is thrilled to welcome Sidney Pettice as our inaugural Curatorial Fellow Fellow for summer 2026!

In collaboration with , Sidney will activate six digital billboards in Downtown Atlanta with artwork by Atlanta-based artists from June 1 to September 30, 2026. This exhibition coincides with the World Cup, offering heightened public visibility and a significant opportunity to engage with both local and international audiences.

Sidney Pettice is a Southern-born-and-based curator and writer. She received her B.A. from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, focusing on African Diasporic Art History, her M.A. from the Center for Curatorial Studies at Bard College, and in the fall will begin her PhD in American History at the University of Tennessee. Her work aims to blend the analysis of Black history with cultural criticism and visual art.

“I aim to center the expansion and further documentation of Black history, culture, and vernacular through extensive writings and research on Black American artists, writers, and cultural critics, highlighting the Diaspora as a whole with a keen, continued focus on Southernness. I fell in love with the arts through Southern Institution. My practice is exemplary through published works and curated exhibitions that cover topics such as self-presentation and Blackness, histories of Southern ritual practice and folklore, as well as the breadth and richness of Black music culture.”

This exhibition is funded by the Georgia Council for the Arts through the appropriations of the Georgia General Assembly, and the National Endowment for the Arts and by our sponsoring partner Atlanta Downtown, Inc.
