Our mission is to connect people, history, and culture, and Atlanta History Center is committed to serving members of our community in this way wherever they are.

By working in partnership with communities, institutions, and public spaces all over the metro area, we can share undertold stories, shed new light on our collective past, and help Atlantans better understand each other.
