Athens is a place of innovation in art, food, music, and more. For creative Athenians, the world around them shows up in their work, a vital celebration of living in Northeast Georgia.

In the latest installment of Inspired by Athens, WUGA’s Emma Auer heads to the studio of a local cartoonist to find out the sides of Athens that spark her ability to create.

Emma Auer is an award-winning reporter who joined WUGA as a full-time producer in 2024. She is also a graduate student in UGA's Romance Languages Department, studying French and Spanish.
