Fulton County Arts residency program seeking applicants By ADAM DARBY adam@appenmedia.com
Center Mayisha Kimoto struggled shooting at times but had a dominant 13-rebound performance. Head coach Lorenzo Withrite said he’s always happy to have a region win. “We took care of the basketball tonight,” he said. “I trust the ball being in [Harris’s] hands and to make a decision with it.”
FULTON COUNTY, Ga. – Fulton County Arts & Culture is accepting applications from local artists for the 2025 Public Art Futures Lab ArtistsIn-Residence Program. In partnership with ATL DTN and MARTA Artbound, the annual opportunity is open to artists interested in exploring the intersection of art and technology. Now in its fourth year, the open call for the program ends Feb. 7. Artists are invited to a threemonth residency to explore artistic themes of public engagement, digital innovation and community transformation. Those accepted into the program are granted privileged access to cutting-edge tools, interdisciplinary collaboration and mentorship from leading experts. Participants from previous years in the program acknowledge the significant impact that the opportunity had on their professional endeavors. “The Futures Lab residency was a tremendous developing force in my practice,” said Max Woo, a 2022 MARTA Artbound Artist-In-Residence. “Though I had independently already worked on games of a smaller scale, the residency helped me with resources and guidance from great minds to build and release a product I couldn’t have imagined attempting years prior.”

Hooch girls even record with 41-26 win By ANNABELLE REITER annabelle@appenmedia.com JOHNS CREEK, Ga — The Chattahoochee High girls improved to 11-11 on the season and 4-5 in region after a 41-26 win over Seckinger at home Jan. 28. After a slow start shooting, the Cougars adjusted their defense in the second half to stifle the Jaguars’ offense, while Chattahoochee was able to find
the open shot and see more of their attempts land. Despite taking some time for their shots to fall consistently, the Cougars finished each quarter with the lead due to their tough defense and few turnovers. Chattahoochee point guard Grace Harris ran the Cougars’ offense as the floor general and anchored their defense with eight rebounds and four steals.
