Museums

A rich history, chic design industry and a thriving modern arts scene create quite the collection of museums in this southern peach. The Apex Museum, Center for Civil and Human Rights, and The King Center tell the tale of civil rights in Atlanta. The Jimmy Carter Presidential Library and Museum hosts a library and a collection of archives, photographs, memorabilia, and occasionally, President Carter himself even makes an appearance. In the arts enclave of Midtown, the Museum of Design Atlanta (MODA), the High Museum of Art, the SCAD FASH Museum of Fashion and Film, and the Museum of Contemporary Art of Georgia all have rotating exhibits and events as well.

Music

Live music in the ATL features everything from blues and bluegrass to punk, reggae, hardcore heavy metal and ethereal electronica. But the real claim to fame for this southern city is its hip-hop scene, where Atlanta rap and southern funk were born. Famous Atlanta natives include T.I., Toni Braxton, Lil Jon, Usher, Ciara, Young Jeezy, Soulja Boy, 2 Chainz, Killer Mike, and Andre 3000 from OutKast.

Ferris Wheel Rides

For inspiring big city views, take a ride 20 stories high on the SkyView Ferris wheel. You might not spot your new apartment from here, but the elevation may give a little optimism and fresh perspective.

Eats

With plated perfections like squash blossom grits, foie gras on French toast, and 60-day dry-aged ribeye with potato sauce, Atlanta can’t help but serve its high-brow fodder with a touch of southern-fried sass. The result will enlighten your taste buds. However, if you’re looking for some old-fashioned, mouth-watering soul food, then you can still get your fix at Ponce City Market or Krog Street Market.

Festivals

Atlanta has music, art, food, and marvels for every time of year. In the spring, there’s the Beer, Bourbon & BBQ Festival, the Atlanta Dogwood Festival, the Atlanta Caribbean Carnival, the Shaky Knees Festival, the Shaky Beats Festival, and the Atlanta Jazz Festival. Summer brings the Atlanta Summer Beer Fest, the Tunes from the Tombs Festival (hosted in the historic Oakland Cemetery), and the Decatur BBQ, Blues & Bluegrass Festival. Fall is all about Music Midtown, Elevate Art, JapanFest, and the A3C Hip Hop Festival. And in the winter, you have the Children’s Christmas Parade, the Callanwolde Arts Festival, the Atlanta Winter Beer Festival, and the Martin Luther King Jr. Celebration.
