Suggestions for Museum near Atlanta

Allyson S. • August 3, 2017Amazing place! Like walking back in time to my childhood! Love all of Jim Henson exhibits and went especially to see The Labyrinth exhibit and it was amazing!! I could have stayed all day!

Wendy P. • August 29, 2010Perfect for a date, girls' night out or flying solo. Every third Friday is jazz night.

Dan • August 11, 2014The exhibits are wonderful in this museum. Take your time to read all of the history. The sit-in counter experience is a must. Don't forget to head downstairs to see the MLK artifacts.

Tam J. • December 20, 2015Great exhibit of Oscar de la Renta

@jyi • January 8, 2011The audio guide isn't really value add IMHO. Take your time and read the panels. Fascinating, you will need more than 1 hour to take it all in.

Jason G. • December 27, 2016The best museum in Atlanta. Very fun and interactive, and the employees are very knowledgeable about the players and exhibits.

David R. • May 20, 2013What a beautifully designed Museum, by Architect Renzo Piano ! So worth the visit...

Bob 💲☎🍒Ⓜ♒ M. • April 28, 2013Excellent information well presented

Aubrey Ramon • May 6, 2015A must see when downtown for its historical value to the city both economically & socially. Reminds Atlanta how far we've come & how much further we have to go. Take a tour & enjoy the energy.

Allison K. • January 3, 2019The VIP tour is worth the extra money. You get a tour guide for a small group and you get to skip all of the lines (inside and outside).

Betsy • January 24, 2010Interactive and smart place to play for children and adults in the heart of downtown Atlanta. Perfect for ages 8 and under.

Vernon K. • August 4, 2013Awesome experience. Great exhibits. Please go visit and support.

Paula M. • December 30, 2017Free and very interesting. It tells the whole life of MLK and segregation. It really makes you think and it is very touching. A must in Atlanta for sure.

Anne C. • September 17, 2012Material Girls: Black Women Artists on view until December 1, 2012. A definite must see.

John M. • September 13, 2010Best museum in Atlanta! Very friendly staff. Beautiful grounds allow a wonderful walk. Lincoln exhibit is a must see! Olympics display is fantastic and interactive. Take the challenge!

Matthew S. • April 13, 2013Thank you for supporting the MOCA and the great Georgian artists here.

Tricia H. • May 16, 2010Visit The King Center's exhibits and resource center. Walk down the street to Dr. King's birth home and across the street to the visitor center.

Katherine S. • July 18, 2013The home and the information from the tour guide were interesting. The guide was pretty knowledgable.

HISTORY • April 19, 2010This was the home of Joel Chandler Harris, author of Uncle Remus stories, from 1881 until 1908. The museum opened in 1913, Harris' room is almost completely untouched to this day aside from cleaning.

Jamie B. • May 6, 2010The Japanese garden is awesome.

Paula M. • July 16, 2018It is free and it is very nice to see all the history and to see the money being handled. Nice visit!

Charlsie 🍡 • June 25, 2013The gardens are one of the quietest places in all of the city - a true hide away with a great view of midtown if you find just the right spot.

Re Defining Moments • October 23, 2014Love the architecture and scenic views of the city. Millennium is such a wonderful hidden gem.

Tatiana H. • February 9, 2015They have the oldest mummy in North America! For its relatively small size, Emory has a great West/North African and Greek/Roman art selection. A must when visiting the campus esp for art lovers.

Africancrab • March 12, 2020Outstanding collection of black history

IrmaZandl Z. • August 7, 2017An absolute must-see if history of Atlanta is an interest. Especially when combined with a visit to Swan House.

Josh W. • July 8, 2018Gorgeous building near Emory; their special exhibits and Imax theater are always good. Uncanny ability to curate in a way kids love. Solid permanent collection. Ideal for families with kids 3-9 yrs.

jeyo • December 28, 2015Beautiful theatre, great place to come see a show with the family. They've got (pricey) drinks and snacks to enjoy during the performance.

Oakland Cemetery • December 27, 2010Edward C. Peters, son of Richard Peters, built the house in 1883. The Peters family was instrumental in the building of Atlanta both before & after the Civil War. The family is buried in Oakland.

Paula M. • December 30, 2017Nice part of the MLK national history center as well.
