Established large-scale artist and mural badass, Peter Ferrari, is slated to hand-pick the visual artists to be on display at Creative Loafing’s Best of Atlanta party. Ferrari, who started celebrated public art event Forward Warrior in 2011 and has driven it since, says he’s stoked.

“I’m honored to curate the art for such a esteemed group of Atlantans,” he told CL over a very professional Facebook chat. ”I get to work with so many talented individuals and creating links between them and other members of the community has been a persistent focus of mine. Can’t wait to see what’s in store!”

Same.
