Collection Description

Historical Note

Canopy Studio began in 2002, under the leadership of Founder Susan Murphy, who believed in the idea of a dedicated aerial arts center, where community members of all ages and abilities could learn the art of aerial dance and performance. Don Carson, Susan's husband, was the builder and Jennifer and Bob Segrest and Chris Evans were the architects of this project.

Scope and Content

The collection consists of the organizational records of Canopy Studio in Athens (Ga.). Included are posters, graphics, photographs, and clippings of performances at Canopy Stuio and elsewhere.
