Fulton County Chairman Robb Pitts and the Department of Arts & Culture are preparing to bring an international flare to the county. The Chairman will host a reception to celebrate the “Threads of Heritage: A Cultural Confluence Connecting Africa to Atlanta," on Friday, May 15. Art lovers will be able to take part in a major international cultural exchange from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. in the Atrium at the Government Center at 141 Pryor Street near downtown.

Presented in partnership with the Nike Art & Culture Foundation (Nigeria), Nike Art USA, and UniSpectrum Inc.
