Atlanta College of Art Alumni
Welcome
Dear ACA alumni,
We are pleased to have the opportunity to work with you to reconnect with fellow alumni and support the legacy of the Atlanta College of Art. ACA was created by a group of art-minded Atlanta women who had a dream to create an organization devoted to the visual arts. We believe that ACA's alliance with the Savannah College of Art and Design will allow that dream to flourish and expand.
The integration of ACA into SCAD creates multiple options for talented students interested in pursuing arts education in Georgia. The alliance will contribute to the depth and the breadth of the arts and to the art- and design-related professions in Georgia. The venerable undergraduate fine arts tradition of ACA will receive a new vitality when complemented by the strengths of SCAD Atlanta.
Together, we will build programs and activities to support your fellow ACA alumni and the legacy of ACA. As an ACA graduate, you will receive the same benefits as SCAD alumni and be invited to participate in ACA alumni events, as well as SCAD college and alumni events.
We hope you will consider becoming involved by updating your personal profile online for inclusion on the ACA alumni "Where are they now?"
Contact me if you have any questions or need additional information at 912.525.5865.
I look forward to having the opportunity to meet you in the near future.
Warmest regards,
Linda Tierney
