Events That Make You Look Closer
Come Curious, Leave Inspired
Art isn’t just something to look at. It’s something to experience, feel and share. The Georgia Museum of Art invites everyone to connect with art on their own terms, at their own pace.
Artist Talks & Drop-In Tours
From intimate conversations with the artists behind our diverse exhibitions to scholar-led lectures, we invite artistic minds to lead engaging talks that offer more than information. These talks spark questions, new perspectives and meaningful conversations. The Georgia Museum of Art also offers drop-in tours to the public on select days, guiding you through our vast permanent collection.
Creative Programs & Workshops
We host a variety of interactive, hands-on art events in Athens designed for you to experience art in motion. From in-studio painting and pottery workshops to yoga in the galleries and garden, you’re invited to discover your unique creative process, connecting with yourself and others. You don’t need art experience to attend — just curiosity and a willingness to try something new and make something of your own.
Community Days for All Ages
Art is created for and by everyone, and we unite families, students, neighbors and curious tourists alike to experience something new. The Georgia Museum of Art hosts Family Days, Teen Studios and a variety of other inclusive events that are more than fun. They invite you to experience art as something personal, playful and shared. They allow you to make art yours, whether you’re getting your hands dirty crafting something special, having meaningful conversations or reconnecting with yourself.
