Description
The TAR Project invites you to our inaugural Therapuetic Art Party. As we invoke deep sharing of the lights within each of us, guests will dive deeply into the creative process through interactive installations, art-making altars, a silent art auction, and pop up “process points.” The evening centers on the power of art while expanding the spectrum of the therapeutic to ignite personal and collective movement, fostering encounters that resonate with our mission to share art’s transformative potential. Come curious, and leave catalyzed.
The Light We Share will be hosted at The Supermarket, located in the Poncey-Highland neighborhood of Atlanta, GA. It is an immersive space where art, culture, and community come together. Founded in 2024, this new venue serves as a multidisciplinary hub for innovative events, artistic expressions, and cultural exchanges.
