The group's unique and colorful murals can be found around the city, but mostly in downtown, Edgewood, Cabbagetown, Reynoldstown, and East Atlanta. I've also seen Living Walls on the BeltLine in Midtown and in Decatur. The art comes courtesy of some of the world's most talented street artists. This review is based mostly upon the Living Walls 2014 Main Event held at the Goat Farm last Saturday, August 16, 2014. As I understood it, the event was a five-year anniversary celebration of Living Walls and the public art the group has put forth in the city. What better venue than the Goat Farm Arts Center to showcase some ambitious and extraordinary installations. On-site parking was limited. Charges were assessed based on how many people were in each vehicle. Solo drivers paid $6, two people in a car paid $4, and three or more people in a car paid only $2. Way to promote carpooling. We parked at Westside Provisions District and walked over. There was a security checkpoint and donations were accepted at the door. A $5 per person donation was suggested. There was live music scheduled throughout the night (on two stages), but we missed the bands because we left before the shows started. I'm an engineer, not an artist. I'm not an artsy person and it can often times be difficult for me to fully appreciate art. However, I thought pieces/installations at the event were very cool. My favorites were the stack of old stereos, boomboxes, and speakers (photo: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/living-walls-atlanta?select=FACADF4MRy5ZWExSwbapdA#FACADF4MRy5ZWExSwbapdA) and the projection a man's face against (what I think were) bays of hay, water, and grass (photo: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/living-walls-atlanta?select=FACADF4MRy5ZWExSwbapdA#n-8dfwWPKo-LvUoZiQ59DQ). The stereo installation actually worked and played music. Another installation I liked was the shopping cart installation (photo: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/living-walls-atlanta?select=FACADF4MRy5ZWExSwbapdA#ZyYZrtfwbptcfeu4j8pWbw). Very creative and original. Artists whose work was on display represented the following countries: USA, Spain, Italy, Peru, Germany, and Lithuania. Local artist David Baerwalde's outdoor, three-tiered, stacked filing cabinet installation at the Goat Farm is always neat to see too (photo: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/the-goat-farm-atlanta#f0WcriVqpmgl8Taap9LZAg). I like how it has plants growing in and around it. Food trucks/food stands were present at the event and included Good Food Truck, Doggy Dog, and King of Pops. There was a lot of security. The staff we interacted with at the check-in/donation table were friendly.

There's so much…read morehistory in here, from handwritten letters by Martin Luther King Jr. to powerful videos of his speeches, and exhibits that highlight stories like Emmett Till that really hit you emotionally. One of the things I appreciated most was learning more about the Freedom Riders, activists who rode buses through the South to challenge segregation laws and faced a lot of violence for it. I realized there was so much about the civil rights movement that I didn't know, and this museum really brought those stories to life. My favorite part was an interactive exhibit where you sit at a diner counter and experience what it was like from the point of view of a Black person during that time. You hear white men behind you yelling racist slurs, threatening you, and telling you to leave, and then you hear fighting and violence happening right behind you. It felt very real. It was really heavy and emotional, honestly hard to sit through, but it stuck with me the most. Overall, I loved it. If you're in the area, I definitely recommend going. It's powerful, educational, and something everyone should experience at least once.

It was so amazing to see all the nice planes and the history of how delta came into being. The staff at this place are so wonderful and helpful. Don't miss out the attraction of the virtual flight screen where you can pick your destination and see those places in a boarding experience. In the end you get to take photo and get a printed copy courtesy of the museum. You will pick that up in the shop. We thought we could get some souvenir of model plane. But in my opinion the prices are in the order of a first class tickets. There is also outer area with different planes and also the 747 that you can get to experiment inside and out. Overall a great spot to visit by if you are closer to the airport.

It was great to see the amazing 100 years of Delta history. We stopped by before heading out of…read moreAtlanta and as a slight aviation enthusiast and Delta enthusiast it was a great spot. Entering the parking lot, you are greeted by two large planes and its tempting to stop and gawk but you'll have a chance to later. Mid-day Thursday, the museum was pretty empty so it was easy to look at and interact with all the exhibits. The first room plays a relatively quick video before opening up the the Legacy Hangar with a couple plans and a children's area. There is an interactive game for plane control signals that was fun! Moving on to the next space is a hall of different types and brands of planes that Delta uses or have used, neat to see them all in one place. The next hangar, Spirit Hangar, has a large B-767 plane, "The Spirit of Delta". Surrounding the plane is about destinations, delta luggage and uniforms through the year, acquisitions, and the flight simulator. It is cool to be able to be up close to such a large plane see the wheels and mechanisms underneath. Up on the mezzanine is where you go through a jet bridge and into the plane to see a little bit of what it was like and learn about the history of the plane. It is full of memorabilia that were fitting during the planes time. After the inside tour we went out to the 747 experience. About half of the aircraft seats are still in tact, and it is cool to interact with the various different types of cabins. There is a cut away of under the plane to see how it is constructed and various exhibits about the plane and moving it to the museum. Outside the plane you can walk up close and personal with the underside of the plane and other planes on site, including a DC-9, B-757, and DC-7B. It was a great spot to visit, the museum gift shop is stocked with a variety of Delta and aviation gifts and clothes. I would recommend to anyone with an aviation or Delta interest.

The building is large and white and surrounded by green grass and flowers and lots of art pieces, making it truly stand out in town compared to all the plain buildings and streets. The CCAC offers several classes. The most popular ones, I would guess, are piano lessons, guitar lessons, and voice lessons. I think they also offer various art lessons, and they are a host location to several youth group meetings, and groups like the Kiwanis Club. As a citizen, you can attend events held at the CCAC. For example, dance studios will perform recitals here, and high schools will hold art exhibitions open to the public. Carroll County Community Theater also performs here -- they perform plays such as Pistol Annie, The Crucible, and The Beauty and the Beast. The plays are my favorite things to attend. In May, the CCAC features Carrollton Festival of the Arts, previously known as Mecca Fest, which is an annual fine arts and crafts festival that gives artists the opportunity to display their talent and artwork to the people of Carrollton.

It was the Mississippian people, who had been here for about 1000 years. The Ocmulgee area is very important to us. It tells the story of the land, rather than the story of the USA. Also, it withholds the most ancient sacred site in the USA, according to academic archeologists.
