Throughout the last several years of Atlanta’s many changes and expansions, a vibrant, independent arts community continues to produce treasures — though not without challenges.

Hi-Lo Press & Gallery has created a space for Atlanta artists and creatives since 2016. Through potlucks, exhibitions, open mic nights and parties, they’ve hosted some genuinely memorable art experiences.

Hi-Lo founder Dianna Settles and collective member Sophie Whittemore joined “City Lights” host Lois Reitzes via Zoom to talk about Hi-Lo’s journey and its future.
