Established in 2000, this institution fills a vital gap in Atlanta’s art scene by exclusively collecting and archiving contemporary works from Georgia artists. Its mission emphasizes promoting the visual arts through active engagement between artists and the community.

Visitors can explore a permanent collection of over 1,300 artworks, with 15 exhibitions annually that highlight both emerging and established talents. The museum’s commitment to preserving Georgia’s artistic legacy makes it central to the state’s cultural landscape.

Did you know that the museum is planning to relocate to a new permanent home in The Goat Farm, an artistic hub in Atlanta’s West Midtown? This move aims to enhance its offerings and further integrate into the city’s vibrant art community.
