Artist Residency
Lagos/Atlanta: Sister City Rising
Fifty years ago, the City of Atlanta and Mayor Maynard Jackson announced a historic moment as Atlanta welcomed Lagos, Nigeria, as one of its first Sister Cities, starting a remarkable partnership between two vibrant communities.
To celebrate this enduring cultural and civic bond, Art on the Atlanta BeltLine is hosting LagosAtlanta: Sister City Rising, a 10-week artist residency that will result in new pieces for the Westside Trail and become a highlight of the 2024 exhibition season. The exhibition was made possible thanks to Presenting Sponsors Jamestown and Ponce City Market.
