The winning artists will display their work at a combined music performance and art exhibition, “A Musical Promenade” presented by the Georgia Symphony Orchestra, and at the Marietta Performing Arts Center on Oct. 22. Congratulations to Baba, Susan Easton Burns, Andrew Catanese, Francoise Harper, Devin Hunter, Tom Kells, Chase King, William Needs, Alan Stecker and Izzy Touchstone. Regional arts leaders serving on the jury of artists included Clemens Bak, Executive Director, Acworth Cultural Arts Center; Seth Hopkins, Executive Director, Booth Western Art Museum; Sally Macaulay, Executive Director, Marietta/Cobb Museum of Art; and Nichole Potzauf, Executive Director, Blue Ridge Mountains Arts Association and Art Center. The Georgia Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of newly appointed Music Director Timothy Verville, announced an open call to visual artists for a juried exhibition occurring at the season opening concert on Oct. 22 at 8 p.m. This combined music performance and art exhibition will take place at the Marietta Performing Arts Center. The exhibition will be held before, during intermission and after the concert — for one night only. “A Musical Promenade” celebrates the collaborative ways in which music and other artistic mediums interact with and inspire each other. The performance concludes with Mussorgsky’s epic Pictures at an Exhibition. (...)
