New Atlanta Field Trips Instagram Account for Exploring Georgia

Hey Georgia and travelers— Meet my new project! . My reputation is that of a wanderer and everyone asks me about field trips. Or I have to introduce lifelong Georgians to the places around them that I’ve found in my three years here - you guys have to get out more! . So, I’ve decided to take that a step farther and make a separate Instagram for Atlanta Field Trips @atlantafieldtripmom . And don’t forget to send me suggestions of places I need to go! . I’ll be using this platform to document old trips and tips to help you there as well as the new adventures I have planned. Hope this encourages you to get out and see some new stuff! Don’t forget to check out the blog where I have even more info under “Explore Georgia”. . I’d love if you would share with your Georgia people so I can reach out to more families! . Below is just a snippet of my cross-post. . —————— . For in-depth ancient history in Atlanta, you have one option and not enough people go! Located on the campus of Emory University in Atlanta is the Carlos Museum, an excellent, low-cost museum for all things ancient history. This lesser visited history museum is worth a visit. . 🧭Where: Atlanta in the Druid Hills area about 15 minutes east from downtown . ⏰Tuesday-Friday 10 AM - 4 PM; Saturday 10 AM - 5 PM; Sunday 12 PM - 5 PM  . 💰Cost: Cheap compared to many museums: adults $8, seniors $6, youth (6-17) $6. Check online for free Sunday FunDays or ask your library about checking out a museum pass for free admission. . ⚠️While I always advocate taking kids of al ages to museums, this one has Greek busts and Egyptian vases out on pedestals - aka “don’t bring your three year old for his first museum experience”. . 📝Education: The Egyptian, Nubian, Near East, Grecian, Roman, Ancient Americas, African, and Asian galleries have artifacts from so many ancient cultures from around the world. . . Save this post for your future visit! There’s even more info on my blog (link in profile). . . Hope this encourages you to go check it out! If you’ve been, what was your favorite piece? We loved seeing ancient coins from the time of Jesus! . . 🤓 @atlantafieldtripmom
