“Art on the Atlanta BeltLine is a living illustration of the vision we’ve long held for the BeltLine – a melding of people, cultures, communities and perspectives,” said Nonet Sykes, Atlanta BeltLine, Inc.’s Chief Equity and Inclusion Officer. “The Atlanta arts and culture community in many ways has brought the BeltLine to life. The cultural experiences that happen along the BeltLine have become a vibrant showcase of our city’s diverse voices. In 2022, we witnessed the power of the arts to heal, connect and enrich, and in 2023, expect a celebration of the cultural ways we’re unique in Atlanta, from hip hop to style writing movements and much much more.”
AoAB, now recognized as the largest public outdoor art installation in the Southeast, will feature more than 100 artists and 56 works of visual and performing arts. This year’s programming will include legacy BeltLine events and projects, such as the BeltLine Lantern Parade and BeltLine After Dark, while also debuting new projects, partnerships and artists.
The BeltLine also is joining in the national celebration of the 50th anniversary of hip hop, curating new works to reflect Atlanta’s influence on the storied history of the music genre.
