Atlanta History Center’s Learning Lab uses inquiry-based learning to bring the past to life in new, meaningful ways.

Oral histories are memories that people share about the past. Ever since humans developed language, parents passed down family and community history to their children orally—with the spoken word—rather than by writing alone.

In this historic time, people across the country—and the globe—have been spending a lot of time indoors. However, while we are fully committed to remaining distant, that doesn’t mean we can’t get outside and explore.

We’re so excited to join our friends at cultural destinations across Atlanta for our first ever Field Trip Friday. To mark the occasion and to celebrate our community in this time of distance, we’re revisiting a crowd favorite—Atlanta in 50 Objects!
