SUMMARY:The World(s) She Made: Composing The Radical Lives of Kathleen Neal Cleaver
DESCRIPTION:The World(s) She Made: Composing the Radical Lives of Kathleen Neal Cleaver is the first public photography exhibit to explore the exceptional life of Kathleen Neal Cleaver. It draws heavily from the personal collection that Ms. Cleaver curated for decades and includes a few images from other collections such as that of Dr. Doris Derby. This photography show chronicles Cleaver’s personal journey from the child of a U.S. Foreign Service officer living across the U.S. South\, Asia\, and West Africa to a leader in the Black Panther Party and the international Black Power movement; and as she went from living “inside exile” (accompanying her fugitive husband to Algeria and France while she herself still possessed relative freedom of movement) to Yale University as a student\, all while raising two children\, becoming a law professor at Yale and Emory Universities\, and building a career in human rights.

SUMMARY:Chuck Stewart: Framing the Sound
DESCRIPTION:The Sun ATL\, Atlanta’s contemporary art gallery and event venue located in the historic Sweet Auburn neighborhood\, is honored to present “Chuck Stewart: Framing the Sound\,” an exhibition of photographs by the late Chuck Stewart (1927–2017)\, widely regarded as the most prolific and consequential music photographer of the twentieth century. The exhibition opens to the public on Saturday\, August 8\, and runs through September 26\, 2026. \nStewart’s photographs appeared on more than 2\,000 album covers over a career spanning seven decades\, and his portraits of the era’s greatest musicians remain among the most recognized images in American cultural history. Twenty-five of his prints are held in the permanent collection of the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of American History. His work has been exhibited at Jazz at Lincoln Center and recognized by institutions across the United States and Europe. \n“Framing the Sound” opens at a singular moment: 2026 marks the centenary of both John Coltrane and Miles Davis — both born in 1926 — and Stewart’s portraits of each are among the highlights of the exhibition. The show also features arresting photographs of Nina Simone\, Astrud Gilberto\, and Tina Turner\, among many others\, offering a sweeping visual record of an era that permanently shaped American music and culture. \n“It’s probably easier to ask me whom I haven’t photographed than to tell you who I have. But if there’s a historic moment in American music\, social or cultural history that you’re curious about\, chances are I was there or have photographs of somebody who was.”\n— Chuck Stewart \nThat breadth is reflected in the exhibition itself. “Framing the Sound” presents a curated selection of Stewart’s portrait work alongside a wall of album covers drawn from his extraordinary catalog — spanning Impulse!\, Verve\, Mercury\, Reprise\, Chess\, and other labels that defined the golden era of recorded jazz. \n“Framing the Sound” will serve as the opening event in a year of international gallery and museum exhibitions celebrating the centenary of Chuck Stewart’s birth in 2027. The Sun ATL is honored to help kick off that celebration in Atlanta. \n“Framing the Sound” is conceived and curated by Kim Stewart\, Director of the Chuck Stewart Archive\, in collaboration with The Sun ATL Director Shawn Vinson\, and is presented with the full support of the Chuck Stewart Estate. \nThe Sun ATL gratefully acknowledges WCLK 91.9 FM (Jazz WCLK\, Clark Atlanta University) as media sponsor and Fireball Entertainment Group LLC as presenting sponsor. \nEXHIBITION DETAILS\nPublic opening: Saturday\, August 8\, 2026\nClosing date: September 26\, 2026\nLocation: The Sun ATL\, 399 Edgewood Avenue SE\, Atlanta\, GA 30312\nGallery hours: Friday–Saturday 11am–5pm; Sunday–Thursday by appointment

SUMMARY:You Are Not Alone: BUGS!
DESCRIPTION:You Are Not Alone: BUGS!\, curated by Charlotte Woolf\, is a group exhibition featuring Atlanta-based painters\, sculptors\, photographers\, and multidisciplinary artists. The exhibition reflects the interdisciplinary nature of the Fine Arts Department at Georgia State University Perimeter College\, incorporating related programming in theater\, music\, and film centered around the theme of insects. \nThe title of the exhibition\, You Are Not Alone: BUGS!\, is drawn from the popular meme honoring the ecosystem’s smallest yet irreplaceable members. The exhibition features artists working across mediums whose practices engage insects and their vital role within ecological systems. Through themes of pollination\, decomposition\, labor\, and interdependence\, the show explores how insects shape the environments around us\, inviting both artists and viewers to reflect on the often-unseen networks sustained by these powerful creatures.

SUMMARY:REEL Art: installation Access Point - Work in Progress
DESCRIPTION:REEL Art: installation Access Point – Work in Progress\nby Adam Larsen in Collaboration with Sue Schroeder\nAccess Point is a feature length immersive documentary work in progress that follows individuals with disabilities as they navigate vast and varied natural landscapes. Through intimate interviews and vivid on-the ground footage\, the film explores often-overlooked barriers to outdoor accessibility—alongside powerful stories of resilience\, community\, and empowerment that emerge along the way.\nThe development of the documentary began with a diverse group of participantsconnected to Bay Area disability organizations\, including Ala Costa Centers\, BORP Adaptive Sports and Recreation\, The Center for Independent Living\, The Disability Cultural Center at UC Berkeley\, Friends of L’Arche San Francisco Bay Area\, Creative Growth\, and NIAD Art Center. These partnerships have provided invaluable insight\, ensuring the film authentically reflects the lived experiences of people across a range of disabilities. By featuring participants who are Deaf\, hard of hearing\, blind\, or who have mobility or cognitive disabilities\, Access Point highlights the many ways disability intersects with the natural world. It becomes not just a story of overcoming obstacles\, but also one of the universal human desire to engage with the outdoors—underscoring the transformative power of nature for all. Partnerships and participation in Access Point\nare currently expanding\, broadening its reach beyond the Bay Area to communities across the United States.\nAs participants explore outdoor spaces—from hiking trails and national parks to beaches\, forests\, and rivers—Access Point reveals the barriers people face\, including limited accessibility\, lack of resources\, and social or cultural exclusion. Each participant brings a unique relationship to nature: some are seasoned explorers whose access has been constrained\, while others are encountering these landscapes for the first time.\nThrough their experiences\, the film captures the joy\, reflection\, and sense of empowerment that nature can inspire when inequities in access are addressed. At its core\, Access Point is a story about inclusion\, equity\, and the right to experience the outdoors. It asserts that access to nature is a fundamental right not a privilege— and examines how inaccessible outdoor spaces intersect with broader societal inequities. By connecting the disability community with the environmental movement\,the film emphasizes that inclusive outdoor spaces are essential to a just and equitable society. It encourages a rethinking of how public spaces are designed and used\, fostering collaboration between environmental and disability advocates and sparking a broader conversation about access\, equity\, and belonging.\nUltimately\, Access Point invites viewers to reflect on their own relationships to the natural world and to envision a future where outdoor spaces are welcoming to everyone. Through compelling storytelling and the beauty of natural landscapes\, the documentary advocates for a world in which nature is a shared space—accessible\, engaging\, and inspiring for all.

SUMMARY:BECOMING
DESCRIPTION:Spalding Nix Fine Art is thrilled to present BECOMING\, a series of four exhibitions by Khalilah Birdsong\, Gretchen Wagner\, Mary Robinson and Angela Carter. Together\, the exhibitions explore transformation – how memory\, material\, color\, place and human connection shape what we carry forward and what we become. Khalilah Birdsong’s “There but for the Grace of You Go I” is a series of layered abstract paintings that consider how memory\, grace and human connection shape our capacity for resurgence\, inviting us to reflect on our responsibility to one another. Gretchen Wagner’s “Color Interaction VI” is part of an ongoing series of printed\, stitched and folded mixed media works that investigates how color responds when it is asked to occupy three-dimensional space. Mary Robinson’s “After Before” is a series of abstract works inspired by the continual flux of life\, utilizing materials and remnants from past works through the processes of painting\, printmaking and collage. Angela Carter’s “Indigo Sunshine” is a series of quilt-inspired mixed media works exploring memory\, place\, movement\, and the ways fragments of experience can be transformed into something new and whole. \nOpening Reception: Friday\, September 18\, 6-8 p.m. & Saturday\, September 19\, 12-4 p.m.\nOn view September 18 – November 13\nOpen Monday – Friday\, 10 a.m. – 5 p.m.\, or by appointment

SUMMARY:Anamnesis
DESCRIPTION:The Greek noun\, anamnesis\, asserts the ever-presence of the past. It can be translated straightforwardly as ‘reminiscence\,’ but it is also a word that expresses the possibility of remembering things from a previous existence\, used by the ancient Greek philosopher\, Plato\, to describe the innate knowledge recalled by the immortal soul through each rebirth. Using anamnesis as its guiding principle\, this exhibition stages a series of conversations\, or remembrances\, between the work of Sergio Suárez (b. 1995\, Mexico City\, Mexico) and the Carlos Museum’s collections of Indigenous American art\, Greek and Roman art\, and Works on Paper. Through print\, sculpture\, and ceramic\, interspersed through the permanent collection galleries\, Suárez explores the passage and presence of time on a cosmic\, mythic\, and intimately human scale\, inviting us to consider the processes that transform objects into artifacts and the histories\, memories\, and lives they embody.

SUMMARY:The Emory Cinematheque Presents: JUNGLE FEVER (1991)
DESCRIPTION:Directed by Spike Lee\n1991 | 132 min. | DCP\nIntroduced by Dr. Mikal Gaines (Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences) \nSpike Lee’s JUNGLE FEVER explores interracial coupling (specifically the black-white version of it)\, the devastation of drug use in Black communities\, class status both within and outside of race\, and gender roles. The film opens with a tribute to Yusef Hawkins\, a young Black teen murdered in 1989. \nOn August 23\, 1989\, 16-year-old Hawkins went to look for a used car in the Bensonhurst area of Brooklyn\, New York with three of his friends. A mob of about 30 youths approached them\, most of them carrying bats. However\, one was carrying a gun. This mob of mostly white Italian-Americans were angry because one of their girlfriends invited a Black boy to her eighteenth birthday party. Thinking Hawkins and his friends were there for the party\, they beat them with bats and shot Hawkins dead. This real-lived tension undergirds the film. \nIn praise of JUNGLE FEVER\, film critic Alan Bell writes: “Ernest Dickerson’s photography is his best yet” (LOS ANGELES SENTINEL). Film scholar Ed Guerrero argues that “Lee’s inclination for depicting the erotic has produced perhaps the most frank\, seductive rendering of interracial\, black-on-white sex on the Hollywood screen to date.” While others\, like scholar William Lyne\, suggest that Spike Lee’s JUNGLE FEVER explores interracial coupling (specifically the black-white version of it)\, the devastation of drug use in Black communities\, class status both within and outside of race\, and gender roles. The film opens with a tribute to Yusef Hawkins\, a young Black teen murdered in 1989. \n—\nThe Emory Cinematheque is a theatrical venue offered by Emory University’s Department of Film and Media. Each semester on Wednesday nights at 7:30pm in White Hall 208\, the Cinematheque hosts professional screenings introduced by Emory professors and special guests. All Cinematheque events are free and open to the public. The Cinematheque presents this screening event as part of our series\, 40 YEARS OF BROTHER SPIKE LEE\, a retrospective of the trailblazing director curated by Emory Professor of Film and Media\, Beretta E. Smith-Shomade.

SUMMARY:"The Foreigner"\, a comedy by Larry Shue
DESCRIPTION:Renegade Theatre Company is excited to present “The Foreigner”\, a comedy by Larry Shue. \nMAKE A RESERVATION in advance at bit.ly/RTCtheforeigner \nVENUE « Virginia-Highland Church at 743 Virginia Ave NE\, Atlanta\nThere is free parking available across the street at Virginia Highland Elementary School. There is limited parking onsite at the church. Please plan to take public transportation\, a ride share or arrive early to find street parking. We will begin shows promptly\, so please plan ahead to be on time. \nPERFORMANCE DATES\n• Wednesday\, July 15th\, 2026 • 8PM\n• Thursday\, July 16th\, 2026 • 8PM\n• Friday\, July 17th\, 2026 • 8PM\n• Saturday\, July 18th\, 2026 • 2PM & 8PM \nCOST OF ADMISSION\nWe offer admission on a “pay what you can” basis. We suggest a donation of $20 for folks who are able. Donations can be processed in CASH at the door or online via GiveLively (links to Venmo\, PayPal\, Stripe and more). \nCAUSE WE’RE SUPPORTING\nAs with all of our productions\, a portion of proceeds will be donated to a cause we believe in. To further align our production with the themes of acceptance and community that are the underpinning of this show\, a portion of the proceeds from this run will be donated to New American Pathways. As a Georgia-based nonprofit\, their mission is to help refugees and newcomers from all over the world navigate the journey from arrival to citizenship. By supporting their work in refugee resettlement\, English literacy\, and career advancement\, we hope to honor the play’s message of finding a sense of belonging and ensuring that everyone\, regardless of where they come from\, has the opportunity to thrive in our local community. \nSYNOPSIS\nIn a remote fishing lodge in rural Georgia\, a pathologically shy man named Charlie seeks a quiet escape from the world. To save him from the strain of conversation\, his friend convinces the local residents that Charlie is a “foreigner” who understands no English. The plan backfires with hilarious results as the lodge’s colorful inhabitants—from a cynical heiress to a scheming preacher—begin to treat Charlie as a silent confidant\, confessing their deepest secrets and dark scandals right to his face. What follows is a high-stakes\, mile-a-minute farce where a man who just wanted to be invisible finds himself the only person capable of saving the day.\n“A comic masterpiece… Shue’s play is a tribute to the power of the human spirit to find a common language\, even when the words are all wrong.” — The New York Times \nCONTENT WARNING\nWhile The Foreigner is a celebrated comedy\, its plot centers on a conflict with a local group motivated by xenophobia and extremism. Our production is committed to exploring these themes with modern intentionality\, specifically focusing on the absurdity of hate while prioritizing the safety of our performers and audience. To ground the conflict in a more recognizable contemporary context\, we will be utilizing a “Proud Boys” aesthetic and physicality for many of the antagonists. In terms of staging\, we plan to use very limited traditional regalia\, supplementing the wardrobe with modern-inspired “inflammatory” costuming (ie: “Proud Boys” references). This approach allows us to clearly identify the threat and the play’s anti-bigotry message without unnecessarily overwhelming the space with historical trauma-based imagery. We are dedicated to maintaining an open dialogue throughout the rehearsal process to ensure a supportive environment for all artists involved. \nWHEELCHAIR ACCESS CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE – Our wheelchair elevator is currently out of commission and being serviced. We’ll update this form as soon as it is up and running again. Please email info@renegadetheatreco.org for any questions about accessing the space.

SUMMARY:Our Cut of Salt: Deena Helm in conversation with Trang Thanh Tran
DESCRIPTION:This event takes place in person at Charis and on Crowdcast\, Charis’ virtual event platform. This event is free\, but registration is required for virtual attendance. Click here to register to attend virtually – https://www.crowdcast.io/c/our-cut-of-salt \nCharis welcomes Deena Helm in conversation with Trang Thanh Tran in celebration of Our Cut of Salt\, a powerful and intimate look at what it means to make a home\, to lose it\, and to return\, only to find it irrevocably changed. \nThere is something haunting Nuhad’s childhood home in Haifa. Cats avoid its perimeter\, strange noises come from within\, and residents have mysteriously vanished without a trace. Although Nuhad has not returned to her home since the Nakba in 1948\, she always held a place for the house in her heart. \nAnd\, in return\, the house did the same for her. \nAfter Nuhad passes away\, her granddaughter\, Marina\, is determined to visit her grandmother’s home after a lifetime of being kept in the dark about her culture and family history. Marina’s mother\, Haifa – named for the city that was lost to their family – reluctantly agrees to her trip\, though she knows firsthand that some secrets are better left buried. \nBut the house is no longer a home. It is a painful\, festering wound that infects everything it touches. The more Marina digs into her family’s past\, the sicker she becomes. Despite Nuhad’s ghostly warnings\, Haifa rushes to help her daughter. \nAs the three women converge in their ancestral home\, they must put the haunting to rest before the secrets of the past drown them all. \nAbout the Author \nDEENA HELM is a mixed Palestinian-American author\, and Our Cut of Salt is her debut novel. Her other works can be found in Fikra Magazine and So To Speak. She asks that you\, the reader\, do everything in your power to resist genocide and deepen your commitment to liberation for all. \nAbout the Conversation Partner \nTrang Thanh Tran is a New York Times and Indie bestselling author based in Atlanta. Their debut She Is a Haunting was a William C. Morris YA Debut Award finalist and won the Bram Stoker Award for Superior Achievement in a YA Novel. Their second book They Bloom at Night was winner of the Indies Choice Book Award for YA and nominated for a Lodestar Award and Locus Award. They adore all things strange and\, of course\, their geriatric cats.

SUMMARY:Gavin Bernard: The Commons
DESCRIPTION:The Creatives Project (TCP)\, in partnership with the Hapeville Depot Museum and the City of Hapeville\, proudly presents: \nGavin Bernard: The Commons\nGavin Bernard’s solo exhibition The Commons explores the possibility of truly knowing ourselves and others within notions of public and private spaces and their deconstruction.\nThe Commons transforms the interior of the historic Christ Church building in Hapeville through Bernard’s nesting structures\, plant installations\, filtered light\, collaborators’ relational movements\, and visitors’ presence. Drawing its name from the 1968 essay “The Tragedy of the Commons\,” the exhibition investigates how the social construction of shared space influences our movements and thoughts\, and asks: how do we protect our humanity within systems of privatization designed without? \nThe public is invited to visit during three evolving activations of The Commons: \nFriday\, September 25\, 6:00 – 9:00 pm\nSunday\, October 4\, 1:00 – 4:00 pm\nSaturday\, October 10\, 4:00 – 7:00 pm \nThe Venue: Christ Church\, 680 S Central Ave\, Hapeville\, Georgia\nAdmission: Free and open to the public. \nBuilt in 1895\, Christ Church is Hapeville’s oldest standing church structure. Consecrated as an Episcopal mission\, the land was donated by city founder Dr. Samuel Hape\, and the Carpenter Gothic chapel was crafted by local builder James N. Cobb. Over the decades\, the space evolved\, serving as a local kindergarten\, a private home\, and a site saved from demolition. In 1986\, the building was physically moved to its current location to protect it from railroad vibrations. Today\, this rescued community landmark provides a historic site for The Commons’ durational study of how community navigates and sustains public and private spaces over time. \nAccessibility: Christ Church is accessible via a paved sidewalk from the rear parking lot and a ramp into the building. Seating will be available indoors. Public restrooms will be available and are also accessible at ground level. Parking is free. \nGavin Bernard: The Commons features artists Hez Stalcup and Jahrea Bee and is curated by Heather Bird Harris. The exhibition is made possible through The Creatives Project (TCP)\, in partnership with the Hapeville Depot Museum\, the City of Hapeville\, and the vision and stewardship of Samantha Singleton\, Director of the Hapeville Depot Museum. The Commons is supported by funding from the Fulton County Board of Commissioners.
