About Us
 Photo courtesy of Chip Simone APG's primary goal is to promote and support contemporary photography as a significant art form. It seeks to challenge photographic conventions, stimulate new thinking and exploration of experimental forms of photographic expression. These goals are supported through a wide range of activities that are overseen by a Board of Directors, an Advisory Board and a Curatorial Panel drawn from the Atlanta photographic community. The Atlanta Photography Group (APG) is an artist-initiated 501(c)(3) nonprofit membership organization. |

MARCH SPEAKING OF PHOTOGRAPHY:
"PUBLIC ART FOR PHOTOGRAPHERS"
Wednesday, March 21st, 7:30PM
Lisa will speak as both an artist and a public art administrator during this month's presentation. She will cover different approaches that she and other artists have used in utilizing photography in public art projects -- both "permanent" and "temporary". She will be accompanied by Briana Camelo, Fulton County Public Art Program Assistant. Briana is also a photographer who graduated from SCAD Atlanta and studied at The Atlanta College of Art. Briana manages the Fulton County Public Art Program Registry and can work with artists who want to become part of the Registry. Artists in the Registry are eligible for Fulton County public art commissions.
Lisa recently collaborated on the public art installation, "Harriet Rising," with writer, performer, and activist, Alice Lovelace. As a visual artist and public art specialist, Lisa designed and created the visual and physical manifestation of this project which focused on Harriet Tubman's historical importance as an American hero, as well as her continuing inspiration for successive women-centered organizations.

Work at Home Volunteer Opportunity
APG needs help with membership communications. We are seeking two or three individuals to work as a team in maintaining the membership database. Tasks include updating the database with new and renewing memberships, acknowledging new members, notify expiring members and correcting membership information. Experience with Microsoft XL spreadsheet preferred but not necessary for all tasks. Volunteers will be trained. Please contact Don Bryant for more information.
