Free Entrance into Atlanta Area Museums and Attractions

Check out the Explore Georgia blog to see how you can enjoy area attractions for free.

Also don't forget if you have a library card you can check out passes to Georgia State Parks and other attractions like Zoo Atlanta.  These passes can save you the entrance fees to the state parks and will allow up to 4 people free entrance to sites.  Just check with your local Georgia library for more details.  Here's the link to the Athens-Clarke County library.

One more thing.  There are a lot of museums and art galleries in the state that are free.


Here is a list from Long Live Learning at http://longlivelearning.com/2014/03/free-admission-to-125-museums-around-the-south/

Happy exploring.

Courthouses of Georgia


Do yourself a favor and check out Courthouses of Georgia  by Association County Commissioners of Georgia (Author), George Justice (Author), and Greg Newington (Photographer).  With an introduction by Larry Walker and a forward by Ross King. A great way to see Georgia is to check out the beautiful county courthouses.  Many are historic.  Many are breathtakingly beautiful.  Then make plans to meet the authors this Wednesday night.  The event is sponsored by the Georgia Center for the Book.  Eagle Eye Book Shop will have copies available for purchase.
