Community Voices
“I am proud of our local art community in Smyrna. I am continually impressed by the dedication and hard work of our many artist and supporter helping ensure the Arts thrive in Smyrna. I look forward to continuing our personally support of SAC, and supporting initiatives championed by SAC including ARTery, public displays of art around the city including City Hall, Community Center, Library, Traveling Fence Gallery and more.”
Tim Gould, Ward 6 and Mayor Pro Tem
“The voice of the artist is often unheard. SAC listens to the artists in their community and affords them the opportunity to speak to a larger audience. Their exhibits always have a great cross section of media and it’s a pleasure working with the board.”
Jason Walesh, Artist
“I appreciate the Smyrna Art Council and how hard they work to bring art to the community. Without them, I would be hard pressed to have a place to exhibit my art. The exposure is invaluable!”
Paula Winter, Artist
“Why Smyrna needs Art in the Downtown – Art is fun to see and fun to make. Art can prompt us to think in new creative ways, sometimes exciting ways, sometimes provocative. Both inspire conversation and community interchange, which builds up a community.The art sets standards for the community. When ‘excellent art’is displayed, it creates the impression that the community is also excellent.”
Michael M. Sizemore, FAIA
“The Smyrna Arts Council is invested in enriching and fostering the Arts in Smyrna. They are open to new ideas and excited to see the Arts prosper in the city. I have enjoyed working and networking with the Smyrna Arts Council and other Smyrna artists. The members are very committed to making Smyrna an arts destination in the Greater Atlanta area, and I am enjoying collaborating with them and seeing this happen for Smyrna.”
Aida Arias, Artist
