Arts Alpharetta is making news! 🎉

CBS News Atlanta recently visited Alpharetta to highlight Dazzle & Discord, our outdoor sculpture exhibition bringing 10 sculptures to parks, trails and public spaces throughout the city.

Featured here is artist Gregory Johnson with his sculpture Just One Look, a larger-than-life hummingbird visiting a flower. Johnson shared with CBS News that the sculpture took approximately 300 hours to create.

We’re thrilled to see Alpharetta’s public art and the talented artists behind it receiving this recognition.
