"Though by no means a secret, Atlanta Contemporary is considered a bit alternative, and therefore more lightly trafficked than the High Museum. Admission is also free, which may make it an attractive alternative spot to take in some culture. It's a nonprofit, non-collecting institution, so it may rotate through several contemporary shows by local, national, and international artists at any one time. Shows are smartly curated and may include one large-scale piece by a particular artist or a survey of their work from a specific period." - Jennifer Bradley Franklin
