Events like SXSW (and A3C for that matter) are more often than not put on with a tremendous amount of time, energy, effort, patience, and frankly as a financial loss to those who put in that effort. Having Atlanta represented in Austin this Spring is something that is vital to raising the visibility of our scene nationally and goes a long way to helping a lot of Atlanta's best kept secrets become a little less "secret". Break into your pockets and come out to this show. If you are an artist based in Atlanta these cats being successful in Austin is important to you in ways that you probably don't immediately understand. This is huge opportunity for our community and I hope that we can all get behind it next week and show out. I know that I am a notorious hibernator this time of year and even I will peel myself out of my office and away from my normal Friday night chill to get out and support something that helps bring attention to the amazing talent that this city produces. ### Written by [Brian Knott](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/list/author/brian-knott) Topics: [Featured](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/list/topic/featured), [Hip Hop](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/list/topic/hip-hop), [a3c](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/list/topic/a3c), [smka](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/list/topic/smka), [News](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/list/topic/news), [sxsw 2010](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/list/topic/sxsw-2010), [fadia kader](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/list/topic/fadia-kader) ### Subscribe to Email Updates ![A3C_15_BADGE_STROKE_BLK@3x](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Logo%202019/A3C_15_BADGE_STROKE_BLK@3x.png?width=350&name=A3C_15_BADGE_STROKE_BLK@3x.png)   ![banner-acid-pro-next-300x300](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Flyers%20-%20Posters/banner-acid-pro-next-300x300.png?width=300&name=banner-acid-pro-next-300x300.png)     ### Featured Posts ### Suggested Posts - A3C - [The Artist Center](https://www.a3cfestival.com/artistcenter) - [The Studio](https://www.a3cfestival.com/studio) - [Creator Complex](https://www.a3cfestival.com/creator-complex) - [Artist Guide](https://www.a3cfestival.com/artist-guide) - [Host Hotel](https://www.ihg.com/hotelindigo/hotels/us/en/find-hotels/hotel/rooms?qDest=230+Peachtree+Street+NE%2C+Atlanta%2C+GA%2C+US&qCiMy=92019&qCiD=8&qCoMy=92019&qCoD=14&qAdlt=1&qChld=0&qRms=1&qRtP=6CBARC&qIta=99801505&qGrpCd=ATC&qSlH=ATLID&qAkamaiCC=US&qSrt=sBR&qBrs=re.ic.in.vn.cp.vx.hi.ex.rs.cv.sb.cw.ma.ul.ki.va&qAAR=6CBARC&qWch=0&qSmP=1&setPMCookies=true&qRad=30&qRdU=mi&srb_u=1&icdv=99801505&__hstc=97734592.ac5da2eda2592925768ef94273ff3219.1498146208812.1561469063428.1561562833685.1852&__hssc=97734592.1.1561575968691&__hsfp=2707452779&hsCtaTracking=2b1f9477-bed8-49ed-9119-47e0922bdf8a%7Cd96ac07d-43a7-4442-9040-c64f5b89250a) - [News](https://blog.a3cfestival.com) - Connect - [App](https://www.a3cfestival.com/app) - [Twitter](http://twitter.com/a3c) - [Facebook](http://www.facebook.com/a3cfestival) - [YouTube](http://www.youtube.com/user/A3CFest) - [Instagram](https://instagram.com/a3cfestival/) - INDEX - [Partnership Opportunities](https://www.a3cfestival.com/partner) - [Submit to Perform](https://www.a3cfestival.com/perform) - [Speaker & Mentor Applications](https://www.a3cfestival.com/speaker-mentor-applications) - [Submit an Event or Show](https://www.a3cfestival.com/showcase-submission) - [Submit a Panel or Session](https://www.a3cfestival.com/conference-submissions) - [Intern/Volunteer](https://www.a3cfestival.com/volunteer) - [Media Request](https://www.a3cfestival.com/media-passes) - [Privacy Policy](https://www.a3cfestival.com/privacy-policy) [Download the A3C Mobile App for ** and **](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/app)[**](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/) ## Are You Coming to the A3C Festival? ### Don't miss Atlanta's biggest Hip-Hop event of the year in downtown Atlanta on October 6-7.
