Summer is underway at Create Dunwoody, and June is packed with opportunities to experience creativity, support local artists, and engage with community art.
From the colorful Doorwoody installations to our interactive Soccer Ball Art Project, there are plenty of ways to celebrate our community this season.

SOCCER BALL ART EXHIBIT Politan Row at Ashford Lane , CT Cantina and Taqueria at Campus 244, Big Play
The Soccer Ball Art Project invites community members to transform blank soccer balls into one-of-a-kind works of art. Selected designs receive recognition and are displayed at local businesses, community gathering spaces, and special events throughout Dunwoody.
Following the exhibit, a portion of the completed soccer balls are donated to local schools and nonprofit organizations, extending the impact of the project beyond the display period.
Winners receive prizes donated by Dunwoody businesses and hotels.
Winners announced at July Final Watch Events - Additional dates TBA
AMERICA 250 PUZZLE PROJECT Starting in July
The America 250 Community Puzzle Project brings people together at local businesses and community spaces throughout Dunwoody. As participants work side by side on puzzles, they create opportunities for connection, conversation, and reflection while celebrating America's 250th anniversary and Dunwoody's community spirit.
EXPLOREFEST

Create Dunwoody is already looking ahead to Explorefest, a new community event in the Jett Ferry area that invites residents and visitors to discover local businesses, music, and community spirit. The event will feature a Battle of the Bands, solo artists performing between sets, a passport challenge with prizes, and family friendly fun.
We are now inviting high school bands and solo singers to apply. The winning band will receive a recording opportunity, and runner up bands will receive prizes. We are seeking sponsors to help make this new community event a success.
