✨ Meet this year's Artist Market Jury!

Every artist in the Atlanta Dogwood Festival Artist Market earns their spot through a jury of working artists, gallery and museum leaders and arts educators. Over the next few weeks, we’re introducing the six jurors who will review this year’s applications. 🚩 Next up is Susan J. “Sue” Ross! Known as the @photogriot, Atlanta’s photo-cultural historian, Sue spent 36 years working for the City of Atlanta, where she also served as the unofficial city photographer during the administrations of the city's first six African American mayors. Now pursuing documentary and fine art photography full-time, Sue is a founding member of Sistagraphy, a collective of African American women photographers. Her work has been exhibited widely since 1985, and her many honors include induction into the 2024 class of The HistoryMakers and the Presidential Lifetime Achievement Award. Fun fact: Sue's iconic photograph SHEROES was featured in the FOR THE PEOPLE photo-mural exhibit along Auburn Avenue! 📸 ➡️ See more of her work at photogriot.com. Artists, it's your turn! 📣 Applications are open through October 28. Apply at the link in bio or at dogwood.org 🌸
