With beginnings as a major railroad hub, parts of Atlanta, including the Georgia World Congress Center (GWCC) have grown to encompass and incorporate the original train system’s structure into an underground realm of urban industrial design. Just under the city’s surface, these vast spaces are a surreal layering of urban architecture, monolithic industrial structures, and dramatic lighting. An intertwining of roads, trains, and parking structures, with streetlights that burn in an eternal dusk and giant shafts of light streaming through concrete pillars from the outside world, these underground spaces are now sought after by the film industry for the grand cinematic location shoots of movies like The Hunger Games.
Please join APG and photographer Beth Lilly for a rare opportunity to photograph in the GWCC's underground catacombs. Having photographed at GWCC numerous times, Beth is very familiar with the grounds and will lead the group to a variety of spaces that are particularly well-suited to photography. With APG’s exclusive access to the area, photographers will have the opportunity to explore and photograph this unique underground urban landscape.
The GWCC underground is private property and not accessible to photographers without permission. APG has secured access for 10 photographers to join Beth for a two-hour meetup to shoot in the catacombs on Saturday, June 24 from 10am-noon.
