Call for Artists EXTENDED! Interested artists now have until Feb. 12th to submit. STMA is calling for artists to submit applications for our upcoming special exhibition, "Healing Our Humanity."

There is a story behind every Steffen Thomas work... In the 1920s, German dancers Yvonne Georgi and Harald Kreutzberg performed in Atlanta and influenced the work of young Steffen. We tell the full story in this video. See the original "Rhythm" and other Steffen Thomas works with their own stories in our special exhibition "Unveiled" - on view until Jan. 22nd. ... https://steffenthomas.org/visit-us/
