Athens Christian School

Athens Christian School (ACS) is a private, PreK–12 non-denominational Christian school located in Athens, Georgia, United States. History Radio minister and bookstore owner Buhl Cummings opened Athens Christian School with his wife in 1970. They offered Bible study and opened each day with worship and prayer. The initial enrollment consisted of white children whose parents wanted to avoid enrolling them in racially integrated public schools. According to historian Ashton Ellett, white elites enrolled their children in Athens Christian School as part of the transition to a class-based system of racial exclusion that was nominally colorblind and revolved around the rhetoric of individual rights, personal freedom, and meritocratic enrollment. In 1985, Athens Christian School suspend a student for participating in an off-campus theater's production of Jesus Christ Superstar. Headmaster Buhl Cummings explained that school banned dancing because "it inflames the passions of youth". Rock-n-roll music was also banned because the "jungle type beat" was reminiscent of the "drums of Africa where they don't know the gospel". In 1995, an Athens Christian School representative stated that the school was seeing additional applications in response to Clarke County School District's "controlled choice" plan to reduce school segregation. Academics ACS is accredited by the Georgia Accrediting Commission.

Atlanta Cyclorama

Atlanta Cyclorama är en cykloramamålning av en grupp tyska konstnärer, som invigdes 1886, och som visar Slaget vid Atlanta den 22 juli 1864 under Amerikanska inbördeskriget. Cykloramat ska visas från 2018 – efter renovering och flyttning till en ny byggnad – i Atlanta History Center i Buckhead i Atlanta i Georgia i USA. År 1883 kontrakterade William Wehner i Milwaukee i Wisconsin för American Panorama Company en grupp på tretton tyska konstnärer till USA för att skapa cykloramor för företaget. De började med att måla Slaget vid Missionary Ridge och fortsatte därefter med Slaget vid Atlanta. De gjorde fältstudier i Atlanta 1885 och förlade sin åskådarpunkt till nära innanför nordstatsarméns linjer vid Georgia Railroad öster om staden, där de byggde ett tolv meter högt observationstorn. Efter flera månader på platsen återvände de till sin ateljé i Milwaukee, där de under överinseende av konstnärerna Friedrich Wilhelm Heine och August Lohr slutförde målningen. Målningen premiärvisades i februari 1887 i Detroit. Den flyttades därefter till Minneapolis i Minnesota och i maj 1888 till Indianapolis i Indiana. American Panorama Company sålde målningen till ett visningsföretag i Indianapolis, som 1890 sålde den vidare till Paul Atkinson från Madison i Georgia. Atkinson, som ägde samma tyska konstnärers Missionary Ridge cyclorama, som var utställd i en rotunda vid Edgewood Avenue. Från 1892 ställde han ut Atlanta Cyclorama där. Efter flera ägarbyten köptes Atlanta Cyclorama av affärsmannen George V. Gress, som skänkte den till staden Atlanta i mars 1989 efter att ha uppfört en ny rotunda i Grant Park. År 1921 invigdes en ny byggnad, ritad av John Francis Downing, i Grant Park, i vilken målningen förevisades fram till 2015.

Atlanta First United Methodist Church

The Atlanta First United Methodist Church has existed for more than 160 years and is one of the oldest churches in Atlanta. The current building was constructed in 1903, and the current name was adopted in 1968. The same bell has been used in three buildings since 1850, and it is the only church bell in Atlanta that is known to have survived the American Civil War. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2010. History In 1845, Samuel Mitchell donated a plot of land to the Methodists for constructing a school. On alternating Sundays, different denominations would use the small log cabin for church services. In 1847, the Methodists raised $700 to build their own chapel on new land. They were the first denomination to do this in Atlanta. The new building was called Wesley Chapel and was the first to have their current bell, which cost an additional $300. It was the only church mentioned in Gone With the Wind. Many daughter churches were formed as Wesley Chapel's congregation grew. They moved to a new Gothic cathedral that was designed by architect William H. Parkins in 1870. In 1902, the congregation sold the property to Asa Candler, where he founded the Coca-Cola Company. The current building was built in 1903 using granite from Stone Mountain for $161,000. The current name was adopted in 1968 after the Methodist Church and the Evangelical United Brethren merged.

Atlanta Medical Center

Wellstar Atlanta Medical Center (formerly known as Georgia Baptist Hospital) was a hospital in Atlanta, Georgia operated by Wellstar Health System. It had 460 beds and over 700 physicians. The hospital was a Level I Trauma Center, and an Advanced Primary Stroke Center. It housed a Neurointensive Care Unit and a Level III Neonatal ICU. History On Thanksgiving Day 1901, the pastor of Tabernacle Baptist Church, Len G. Broughton M.D., created a small infirmary as a new program for his church, operating it out of a rented house. The Tabernacle Infirmary started with only five beds and Broughton as the only doctor, but quickly grew. By 1910 it had 75 beds and a staff of physicians and surgeons, and its own building on Luckie Street (adjacent to the Tabernacle). Broughton also founded a Nurse Training School associated with the Infirmary. After Broughton left Atlanta for London in 1912, the hospital suffered somewhat. It was sold to the Georgia Baptist Convention for $85,000 in 1913 and was managed by Rev. James Long as Georgia Baptist Hospital. The Baptist organization was not enthusiastic at first about running a hospital but Long overcame that and the business was self-sufficient by 1916. In 1921 the hospital purchased the former Levi B. Nelson home site at Boulevard and East Avenue (which was destroyed in the Great Atlanta fire of 1917), which is the present location east of downtown Atlanta. The hospital moved from its former Luckie Street location to here late in 1921. A building program was undertaken starting in 1948 to expand the hospital. In 1956, office space for medical professionals was added. In 1981, air ambulance service was initiated via heliport. On September 5, 1997, the hospital was sold to Tenet Healthcare and was subsequently renamed Atlanta Medical Center. Effective March 31, 2016, the hospital was sold to Wellstar Health System along with four other Atlanta-area hospitals. On August 31, 2022, Wellstar Health System announced that Atlanta Medical Center was expected to end operations on November 1, 2022. Atlanta Medical Center permanently closed at 11:59 p.m. on October 31, 2022. Demolition of the hospital complex began in June 2025, with plans to create a multi-use development at the site. In popular culture This hospital is known for being the birthplace of actress Brittany Murphy. References External links Official website
