The city of Atlanta has a gem the makes it "glo" like it has never done before and that gem is... "gloATL" a collaborative artist company 
(Lauri watches her soldiers whisk and swirl around her during rehearsal)
They are hidden in unique corners throughout the city and invite onlookers to come and join them as they make leaps and bounds to unite the city through the art of life.
Organic pedestrians they are, moving in ways that are as simple as walking with an exaggerated smile to holding up s person over there heads to make it look like they are ever so gracefully walking on peoples shoulders or floating. 
The contributing artist are over seen by the creator of the company... Lauri Stalling. She is a being out of this world, with a very loud voice that is often used not through her mouth but through her movement. Whenever she speaks you listen, she can grab you attention within the blink of an eye and get you thinking in new creative ways you might have never thought were possible.
Lauri Speaks through movement, much deeper than words and more powerful. The actions that it makes happen by evoking emotions that most people forget about.
Glo has given the city a new light, a light from deep underneath that has been brewing for a long time but it can finally be seen and start shining through the cracks.
We are on a journey being lead forward by Lauri her amazing group of dancing soldiers marching with a passion that runs deep through their veins! They show us the simple things we have forgotten about and bring the joy out of our lives that are over shadowed by the woes of every day life.
We all take flight on this amazing journey to a new world made on the foundation of... Equality.
So keep your eye, ears and minds open because there might be something gloing in a hidden corner of the city and you won't want to miss out on the amazing things that will follow. For glo is everywhere and you want to see the gem that it is up close and personal!
