Bean Summer: Bar star by night, visual artist by day
Bean Summer is best known as the booking agent for Lenny’s Bar, one of the coolest nightclubs in Atlanta. By day, however, he’s Ben Worley, an MFA student at Georgia State University’s Ernest G. Welch School on Art and Design.
Bean’s work currently appears in the school’s 2007 Juried Student Exhibition. The opening party takes place Thursday, April 5, at the school gallery from 6-8 p.m., during Downtown Artswalk, and the exhibit lasts until April 19. If you can’t make it, check out Bean’s work on his website, Neb Productions.
