“Abbott Elementary” creator Quinta Brunson, cast members of the HBO Max hospital drama “The Pitt” and Peach State native Jalyn Hall are just a few names from the star-studded lineup scheduled to arrive in Atlanta next month for the 14th Annual SCAD-TV Fest.

The three-day event, held from Feb. 4-6 at The Savannah College of Art and Design’s SCADshow theater in Midtown, highlights the achievements of critically and commercially acclaimed performers, writers, artists and producers in television and streaming through a series of programming options.

“At this year’s SCAD TVfest, SCAD students and alumni will bask in the limelight alongside the industry’s brightest stars, on screen and on set, with Emmy Award winners, showrunners, and casting visionaries,” said SCAD President and Co-founder Paula Wallace in a Friday press release. “There is something for everyone, and most importantly, for our SCAD students specializing in film and television, who are gaining a front-row seat to learn directly from their mentors and future collaborators.”
