The Art in Freedom Park 2005 exhibition is the first stage of a long term plan for Freedom Park titled
Discover Freedom Park.
To develop and maintain Freedom Park as Atlanta's free-to-the-public art park requires on-going financial support.
If you enjoyed the exhibition and would like to make a contribution, the opportunity to make a tax-deductible
donation is available here.

Volunteer
To produce an exhibition of this scale our team of staff and volunteers worked
throughout the year in the areas of fundraising, grant writing, community outreach, administration, artist coordination,
sponsorship, marketing production and event management.
