A curated weekend program positions Atlanta as a destination for collectors and arts patrons

A private “Art Market Tour” in Atlanta is scheduled for Friday, January 30, 2026, hosted by the Greenwich Art Society and the art advisory firm led by Devon Vander Voort. The organizers describe the trip as a guided, multi-stop immersion in the Atlanta art scene, combining institutional visits with opportunities to see private collections and artist studios.

The program is marketed as a small-group experience, with the exact address available to registered attendees. Participants are expected to meet at FORTH Hotel, which is listed as the gathering point for the weekend. A detailed itinerary of the tour’s specific stops is expected to be provided to ticket-holders ahead of the event.

What the event includes, and what it does not

Ticketing is set at $995 per person. Organizers state that the ticket price covers several hosted meals and structured programming across the weekend, including transportation on Saturday.

  • Included: a Friday welcome cocktail, Saturday lunch, and Sunday coffee.
  • Included: Saturday tickets, tours, and scheduled events.
  • Included: transportation throughout Saturday.
  • Included: a “welcome gift,” as described in event materials.
  • Not included: hotels and flights.

The event also lists a partial refund policy: organizers state that 50% of the ticket cost is refundable until one week before the start of the trip, with refunds handled by request.

Who is organizing the tour

The Greenwich Art Society, a nonprofit arts organization based in Greenwich, Connecticut, lists the Atlanta trip as part of a “FLASH ART TRIPS” series. The trip is being presented in collaboration with Devon Vander Voort’s art advisory business, founded in 2023. Vander Voort is described in company materials as an art advisor and curator with academic training in museum studies and art history, and professional experience across museums, galleries, and arts organizations.

Why Atlanta is on the itinerary

While the tour’s specific stops have not been publicly detailed, the format described by organizers reflects a broader approach increasingly used in the art market: curated travel designed to provide collectors and patrons with access to artworks and contexts that are not always available through standard museum visits. By combining museums with collector-home tours and studio visits, the organizers are positioning Atlanta as both a cultural destination and a place where the art ecosystem can be experienced across institutions, private spaces, and working studios.

Attendees are told to expect museum visits, collector-home tours, artist studio visits, and additional stops shaped by the day’s schedule.

Questions about the Atlanta tour are being directed to an event email address provided in the registration materials.
