The Atlanta History Center's annual programs are fun for the whole family and include the following Family Fun programs planned especially for parents and kids. Take a tour of the ca. 1845 Tullie Smith Farm. Explore the period outbuildings, including the blacksmith's shop, and tour the gardens. Learn about open-hearth cooking.
Kids can enjoy toy demonstrations and games and then meet the farm animals.
Pack your knapsack, round up the troops, and march to the Atlanta History Center for a day of family fun at Civil War Encampment. Learn what life between Civil War battles was like during this two-day event featuring one hundred authentic living history interpreters. In 2000, this program will take place the weekend of September 8 and 9, 2001. Walk through the candlelit grounds as you seek treats on a journey to our log cabin, where a storyteller tells tales of spooks, ghosts and things that go bump in the night. Visitors see the houses and museum buildings decorated for the holidays, hear musical performances from local groups, enjoy family activities, and are treated to a visit with Santa Claus.
