3 Best Shopping in Atlanta, Georgia

Started more than 20 years ago, this music and gallery space is always on the cutting edge. Its new location continues the mix of avant garde international musical acts, beloved locals, and mind-opening—and sometimes mind-bending—visual art that has kept it indispensable in the Atlanta arts scene.

This quaint, nonprofit art space is located in the always evolving Met Atlanta, a 100-year-old gem that’s home to creatives and revolving food pop-ups. MINT hosts monthly, ever-changing exhibits, full of local and non-local artists alike who work in mediums from experimental to interactive and more. MINT’s goals are for people to truly engage with art and to draw attention to new and emerging talent. As the first W.A.G.E.-certified organization in Georgia, the gallery focuses on regulating the payment of artist fees by nonprofit art institutions.
