to hear that the David J. Sencer CDC Museum will be reopening in early May. At this museum, you’ll
learn about the history of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and how they crack the cases of mystery diseases. Explore the great outdoors. Just outside of downtown Atlanta, there are some beautiful places to visit. You can head just east to the Arabia Mountain National Heritage Area and explore 40,000 acres of trails, creeks, and hills. There’s also the Autrey Mill Nature Preserve that provides three miles of trails across 46 acres. You can walk through the forest and see all kinds of wildlife. They also have a farm museum that’s sure to pique your interest. See beautiful animals. You may think that you’d have to pay for admission to the zoo in order to see some exotic animals, but there’s a nonprofit educational sanctuary for exotic and farm animals in Locust Grove. Noah’s Ark Animal Sanctuary is home to over 1,500 animals including bears, tigers, monkeys, reptiles, lions, and much more. If you haven’t been, this is a must-see destination.
The spring season is officially upon us. As the weather continues to warm up, more and more people will be leaving their homes and exploring the Atlanta area in search of activities they can enjoy with their entire family. While there are plenty of opportunities to see the Braves play or visit the zoo, not everyone can fit these excursions into their budget. Luckily, there are many fantastic free activities around metro Atlanta that everyone can enjoy. Below you’ll find some of our favorites. Visit a museum. Atlanta is an extremely historic city and has many museums that can educate us about our city and country’s past. The best part about these museums is that they’re free to the public so you just have to find a ride to enjoy them. The Atlanta Monetary Museum should hopefully reopen to the public in May and offers visitors a chance to explore the history of money and banking in America. If the pandemic has sparked your interest in public health, you’ll be pleased
