“We will transmit this City, not only not less, but greater and more beautiful than it was transmitted to us.” – The Athenian Oath

Athens-Clarke County Library presents a special FREE showing of the new film Athens Rising 2: Transmittance on October 22 at 7:00 pm. Local filmmaker James Preston will be on hand to introduce the film and take questions from the audience afterwards.

In his second Athens Rising documentary, Preston looks at the creative class in Athens, GA through the lens of our unique organizations & institutions, the artists they inspire, the community we build, and our collective potential.  Athens Rising 2: Transmittance “captures the hope, the drive, the power, and the love of this fault-line riven, beautiful, and flawed city.” – Brent Temple
