A digital database capturing Atlanta’s DIY arts and music scene and documenting past and current local events and cultural spaces is now live.
This multimedia archive includes music, visual art, oral histories, maps, and memorabilia like posters and promotions, helping residents document performances, organizers, attendees, and the impact on the community.
The archive, an Innovation Lab project created by Naya Clark, aims to preserve Atlanta’s cultural heritage, elevate marginalized voices, and strengthen community ties.
We hope you will use the submit form on the website to share your own memories and stories.

I hope this story leaves you inspired by the power of community-focused journalism. Here at Canopy Atlanta, we’re driven by a unique mission: to uncover and amplify the voices and stories that often go unheard in traditional newsrooms.
Our nonprofit model allows us to prioritize meaningful journalism that truly serves the needs of our community. We’re dedicated to providing you with insightful, thought-provoking stories that shed light on the issues and stories that matter most to neighborhoods across Atlanta.

From Bankhead to South DeKalb to Norcross, I believe in the power of our journalism and the impact it can have on our city.
If you can, please consider supporting us with a small gift today. Your support is vital to continuing our mission.
