Artists, many of whom are Hambidge Center for Creative Arts & Sciences fellows, and musicians will present during each lunchtime event in an area coined “Vineyard in the City,” the country’s first pop-up, urban vineyard.
“[The] Arts In the Vineyard series has given us a phenomenal opportunity to share a diverse range of artists with the Atlanta community,” Gary Sayers, spokesman for The Woodruff Arts Center, said in a written statement. "Just as importantly, this is a great opportunity to engage the entire Midtown community and create a sense of place in a very special way.”
Today’s performance will be courtesy of Ben Sollee, a cellist and composer hailing from Kentucky, and Lonnie Holley, a celebrated improvisational artists that blends visual art and music.
