Elevate Art is an annual cultural festival held each October in downtown Atlanta, showcasing artistic exhibitions, installations, and live music and dance performances organized around a yearly event theme. The weeklong event is free to attend, though some performances throughout the week require a ticketed upcharge. Events include an annual opening night block party and a number of weeklong art installations showcased along the city's Broad Street Southwest. The event has been named as one of the nation's top 50 public art projects by the Americans for the Arts Public Network and has become a launching pad for the city's permanent public art scene, with many previous installations still displayed today at their original sites. Many nearby restaurants and bars also offer special events and discounts presented in conjunction with the event.
