Flowers and paintings at the Piedmont Park Arts Festival

Midtown Atlanta never ceases to live up to the title “The Heart of the Arts.” Our National Register Historic District is home to a variety of galleries, artists, avid collectors and private collections, which is something worth celebrating! The Atlanta Foundation for Public Spaces brings that celebration to life each year at the Piedmont Park Arts Festival. Creatives from all over Georgia and beyond gather in Midtown Atlanta from August 15 - 16 to showcase their talents, and you won’t want to miss it.
