Many ask what economic development and storytelling have in common. Stories profoundly influence memorable experiences, inspiration, and connection. Storytelling forges connections among people, places, and ideas. Stories also convey the culture, history, and values that unite people. Art sits at the center of this storytelling, so it only makes sense to weave what makes Georgia such a great place for investment with our local artists and let them do the talking.
From the surface, our office in Midtown Atlanta’s Technology Square appears as a standard office complex, but step inside and find some of the nation's best resources for site selection, business expansion, and community development. We pay tribute to Georgia's investments that have advanced the state each decade and collaborate with local artists to narrate our assets and journey.
The artwork displayed that crafts Georgia's narrative spans from emerging talent to established creators. Featured are rotating artwork from local high school students, encompassing what makes Georgia special to them. Additionally, you will find pieces from local mural professionals like Michael Jones and Killamari Yo. Killamari Yo is a leading member of the Lotus Eaters Club, a collective of multidisciplinary creatives who strive to have a positive impact on the community through public art.
Each piece is carefully curated to stand for distinct aspects of Georgia’s economic engine from ports and runways to quality of life of our beloved towns and cities.
A variety of mediums, including ceramics, metal, and oil on canvas, pay homage to the creativity that’s woven through the state’s story of success.
The artwork and creators contribute to the story that is uniquely Georgia, a leading state for business and innovation.
