While the drama over the popular — and now defunct — art exhibit Art in Freedom Park continues to play out, drama of a different sort will unfold tomorrow in the city's largest park.
Freedom Park, which Atlanta City Council designated as an official "art park" earlier this year, will host its first public art project of the year — an original dance/performance piece titled 1906/2006/2016 — on Wed., June 27 (today!).
The performance is part of the campaign by the Coalition to Remember the 1906 Atlanta Race Riot to examine — and remedy — a history of oppression. It begins at 7 p.m. in Freedom Park, just north of Little Five Points at 100 Euclid Ave.
