Then starting in January 2012 we will have a Martin Luther King, JR Mural show… it will be so beautiful one big image all over the center. 
NOW FOR THE BIG EVENT: Bake What Your Mama Gave You! 
Criminal Records, a local record store, located in the small community of Little Five Points of Atlanta GA, is in need of money. And what else to do? Hold a bake sale! So with the help of the public, bands, and others we are setting up a bake sale on 10/27 at Smith’s Olde Bar during their benefit show to help raise money as well as see what kind of sweets we as a city can bake! We are still ironing out the details for the event but basically, bake something anything, it can be traditional grandma recipes to vegan to sugar free etc - but go to the Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Criminal-Records-Make-What-Your-Mama-Gave-You-Bake-Sale/238675342846733

AtlantaGA – For the second year, the AtlantaArtistsCenter’s Photography Salon, will be celebrating with the annual juried show, “A Photographic Celebration,” featuring 50 works by AAC members. This will be in conjunction with the city-wide Atlanta Celebrates Photography 2011, which focuses on traditional photographic imagery, but also encompasses digital computer manipulation techniques.

The juror for the show was Mark Karelson, co-owner, Mason Murer Gallery, in Atlanta, GA. “Mark is known in the domestic and European art communities for his ability to showcase many art forms, including photography, and he works tirelessly to give back to the communities where he enjoys a presence. We were honored to have him jury the show,” said H. Gay Allen, Chairman for the show.

A cash and ribbon award will be given during the reception for Best of Show; and ribbons will be presented as Awards of Excellence for the following categories: Technical Excellence, Artistic Excellence, Photographic Technique, and Pushing the Digital Envelope.

The AAC Photography Salon is “an informal, photographic artists’ education, discussion and support group of those who use one, or all, forms of photography as their means of artistic expression.” See:http://www.atlantaartistscenter.org/
