HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Momentum is building for APG! We broke new ground in 2012. Along with our A-list of jurors, APG now boasts official affiliations with three of the top collecting institutions in Atlanta; High Museum, MOCA, GA and City of Atlanta Airport Art Program. We plan to keep it going in 2013!

We are excited to announce two of our upcoming jurors: Stuart Horodner, Artistic Director, Atlanta Contemporary Art Center and Barbara Griffin, SVP, Image Management, Turner Broadcasting System and ACP President.

We would also like to welcome two new members to the APG Board, artists Laura Noel and Beth Lilly. Both are long time APG members and considered among the rising stars in the Atlanta Photography scene.

Many thanks to our fantastic team of volunteers who make this
organization what it is. So please stay focused on APG in 2013 -- we need you!

MEMBER NEWS

Explorer © Jill Ediger

Jill Ediger's
photograph, "Explorer," was purchased by a production company last year, to be used in the movie, "Parental Guidance," in theaters now. The Edigers confirm that her photo can indeed be seen in Marisa Tomei's bedroom during several scenes with Billy Crystal and Bette Midler! So make sure you look for it if you happen to catch the movie!

APG Member, Laura Noel, is exhibiting in "Traces of Myth," currently showing at Hagedorn Foundation Gallery. There is an artist reception and book signing on Saturday, January 12th, 4-6PM.
