"The Chastain Gallery is a small, quiet showroom on the north side of the park near the Galloway School. It shares the lot with the Arts Center, but in a separate wing of the building. Push through the door marked “City Gallery” and, depending on when you visit, you’re likely to find yourself alone in a room with just you and the art. When I visited, Sarah Hobbs and Susie Winton’s show was on display (and, therefore, is in the photograph). It’s an intimate experience with local artists and worth the visit." - Russell Shaw Design
"One long hallway runs the full length of this old space with doors opening to sunny studio rooms all along its walls. When I first toured I thought, “What is this place? Can I work here?” The Arts Center has a pretty great course listing every season (and, I might add, some of the most affordable adult learning art classes that I have seen in the city; it’s run by the Atlanta Office of Cultural Affairs). So if you’re wanting to get awkward with other locals in a nude figure drawing class, this would be a picturesque location and cost-efficient way to do so." - Russell Shaw Design
