A Heartfelt Thank You: A Successful Open House for Georgia Arts Initiative
We are overwhelmed with gratitude for the incredible turnout at the recent open house for the Georgia Arts Initiative (GAII). The event was a resounding success, and it was truly heartening to see the community come together to support the arts.
We were honored to be graced by the presence of esteemed city officials, Chamber members, Cultural Arts members, artists, filmmakers, and talent agents. Your presence and enthusiasm added a special touch to the event, and we are grateful for your support and commitment to the arts in our community.
The open house, hosted at the Words In Motion Professional Actors Studio, saw over 100 people in and out throughout the day. The vibrant atmosphere, filled with creativity and passion, truly reflected the spirit of the Georgia Arts Initiative.
A special thank you goes to Chairman Kelly Young-Silva and Landen Prather for generously lending their spaces to the GAII to kick-start the initiative. Your support is invaluable, and we are excited about the possibilities that lie ahead.
While we are starting with these spaces, we have big dreams for the future. We are hopeful and optimistic about securing a larger, more permanent space that will serve as a worthy home for Georgia's talented artists.
We understand that great things often begin with small steps, and we are committed to nurturing and growing the Georgia Arts Initiative to support and showcase the incredible talent of Georgia artists.
Once again, thank you to everyone who attended the open house and showed their support for the Georgia Arts Initiative.
Big Thank you to Kaye Young for catering, Brent and Lilly Brooks of Insurance PM for support.
Together, we can make a difference and create a thriving arts community that we can all be proud of.
