The High Museum of Art has transformed and grown its audience through innovative programming and made itself the place to be on Friday nights in Atlanta. Our success involves shaking up the traditional model for planning a Friday night program with the introduction of HIGH Frequency Fridays. Happening on the first Friday of every month, this "entry level" program taps into Atlanta's thriving music scene and has created a community of dedicated fans and boosted our membership program. Read more about our work here: https://lnkd.in/dx-7dG4S
