Georgia Tech Arts Opens “Loop” in Atlanta’s Creative Quarter
Jun 15, 2026
LOOP launched on June 6, activating a key site within Atlanta’s emerging Creative Quarter. Powered by Atlanta-based center for contemporary art and performance Goat Farm in partnership with Georgia Tech Arts, this initiative advances Georgia Tech’s broader commitment to arts, creativity, and interdisciplinary collaboration.
LOOP’s public opening featured work by Tech students and faculty alongside artists represented by Wolfgang Gallery. Featured installations include Vulnerable Value, presented by the Georgia Institute of Technology and Wolfgang Gallery, and Wormhole by Ishaan Jagyasi, Kyle Smith, Devon Green, and Ryan Baker. Artists and innovators from across Atlanta will also begin moving into LOOP’s studio spaces this summer.
Located near Georgia Tech’s Ferst Center for the Arts and within a growing Westside ecosystem for the arts and creative industries, LOOP reflects the continued growth of Georgia Tech Arts.
“LOOP represents a transformational moment for the Creative Quarter and for Georgia Tech’s commitment to the arts and innovation,” said Jason Freeman, associate vice provost for Arts and a2ru Executive Committee Member. “It creates new opportunities for our students, faculty, and staff to engage with artists, creatives, and the broader community and demonstrates that the arts are central to our mission to develop leaders who advance technology and improve the human condition.”
“LOOP was conceived as a space where experimentation is not only supported but expected,” said Allie Bashuk, design director for Goat Farm. “As artists move into the studios and public programming begins, LOOP invites audiences into work that is unfolding in real time.”
LOOP brings together artists, students, and the broader community. Anchored by artist studios and flexible exhibition and event space, the site is designed to foster new connections among art, technology, research, and community engagement. It will host public programs throughout the year, including exhibitions, performances, and festivals.
