?Art on the Atlanta Beltline, the South’s largest outdoor temporary public art exhibition, is returning for its sixth year, and has sent out an official request for proposals from visual and performance artists.
? ?
Muralists, musicians, sculptors, dancers, theater professionals, and other visual, and performance artists are invited to submit potential project ideas which echo the Beltline’s character as a functional space and cultural presence. Proposals should be well-researched, thoughtfully planned, and achievable — but also unique and creative.

Like last year, the exhibition will kick off at the Atlanta Beltline Lantern Parade, which will take place on Sat., Sep. 12. Performances will be held on four weekends. It is essential that contributing artists and performers be available on those dates (Sep. 12-13, 19-20; Oct. 10-11). For those chosen to exhibit work, installations will begin in June

? For those who hope to exhibit work on the 22-mile loop, four separate information sessions will be held to quell any concerns and offer advice. The first will be on Wed., March 11, at 6 p.m. at the Hammonds House; the second will be on Fri,, March 13 at 6 p.m. and the Abernathy Arts Center; the third on Wed., April 1 at 6 p.m. at C4 Atlanta; and finally on Sat., April 14 at 3 p.m. at Wonderroot.
