We were privileged to have Adewale Adenle, a distinguished political cartoonist and assistant professor @georgiastateuniversity , as our guest speaker tonight. Currently showcasing his incredible art at @eyedrum , he shared with us his process and views on art as a medium for political commentary and the impact of Western culture. What resonated with me was his emphasis on art not just for aesthetics but as a means to challenge power structures. His experiences growing up in a nation torn by civil war lend profound weight to his words. If you’re around, his artist talk is tonight next door to the gallery section. #Truthtopower #atlanta

Musicians and Movers is a community-based performance platform that brings together musicians and dancers for collaborative, live performances. Our programming focuses on creating space for interdisciplinary exchange, where artists work together in real time to explore and refine relationships between movement and sound.
Practicing deep listening.
This series of workshops, held in a master class setting that integrates music theory concepts, butoh poem imagery, somatic practices, and improvisational exercises to examine the intersections of improvisation and composition between sound and movement, both trained and untrained musicians and movers welcome, guided by Movement Artist, Luciana Arias, founder of Musicians and Movers.
This workshop is cumulative (though participants are welcome to also just drop-in).
There will be a final performance that incorporates participants as well as a curated ensemble.

Art Star is finally coming through Atlanta and their baroque and visceral style of noise rock is something really special. The perfect midweek cathartic release from the endless malaise.
Split Silk will be there along with our eternal besties in Janie Danger and our old friends in The Harvest Law. An artsy night with artsy bands at the artsiest venue in town, our beloved Eyedrum ✨✨✨
