A.A.C.’s eighth birthday marks eight years of actively engaging the Milledgeville and Georgia College community with literacy and art based programs. In the photo, current Org Director of the DNSTP Chapter of A.A.C., Ryan Olliffe delivers a slam poem at a poetry night and birthday celebration organized at Georgia College. A.A.C. partnered with Jessica McQuain, executive director of Art and Culture from Georgia College’s Campus Activities Board for the event. The event featured more than 13 performance poets who shared stories and poems about topics ranging from relationships to social justice.

A.A.C. works diligently to strengthen the impact of art and education by creating safe spaces for the development of collaborative art and education programs. Founded in 2006, A.A.C. continues its mission to build lasting human connections that support our endeavors to create a better world.

Stay tuned for our next big event, A.A.C.’s  2014 Bad Mamma Jamma Slam, 8pm, October 15 at Blackbird Coffee, Milledgevile.
