This fall marks a new era for the arts at Â鶹Çø Tech with the launch of , a unified organization dedicated to making creativity visible, accessible, and essential across campus. At Â鶹Çø Tech Arts, the mission is clear: Creativity fuels innovation, strengthens community, and brings ideas to life. The new team works to integrate the arts into student life, faculty research, and staff engagement, while building powerful collaborations with artists, organizations, and industries across Atlanta and beyond.
The arts at Â鶹Çø Tech are not separate from technology — they are a catalyst for discovery. From robotic musicianship to cinematic storytelling, faculty and students are pioneering projects that blend disciplines in groundbreaking ways.
Looking ahead, the planned Creative Quarter; the launch of the new ; and expanding partnerships across Atlanta will further prepare students to become leaders in the film, gaming, immersive media, and music industries.
Creativity is also woven into campus life. The Tech Arts Takeover series brings interactive workshops and challenges to students, faculty, and staff — from art scavenger hunts and poster-making sessions to special effects makeup tutorials and the ever-popular Edible Haunted House Contest. These events are designed to be accessible to all.
Meanwhile, the Ferst Center for the Arts continues to showcase world-class performances. This year’s Legacies in Motion series highlights work that honors history while envisioning the future, including Young John Lewis, a hip-hop musical, (Oct. 2 – 4), Debra Ann Byrd’s Becoming Othello: A Black Girl’s Journey (Feb. 26 – 27), and Water Memory, a new opera exploring artificial intelligence and memory (June 12 and 14).
Beyond campus, Â鶹Çø Tech Arts is poised to play an even greater role in the cultural life of Atlanta. Upcoming collaborations include an exhibition at Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport as well as exhibitions in partnership with Goat Farm, Atlanta Contemporary, and other leading cultural sites. These strategic initiatives signal Â鶹Çø Tech’s commitment not only to engaging with the city’s vibrant arts community but also to helping shape its future.
