Phoenix Flies

Phoenix Flies is an annual celebration of Atlanta’s history, shown through historical talks, tours, and events It’s put on by the Atlanta Preservation Center in collaboration with a bunch of other local organizations (like Oakland Cemetery). They have many free, all-​ages and all-​abilities events.
If you’re into historic preservation (or you just dig old stuff), this will probably be interesting to you. You can tour historic buildings, go on historic walking tours, and learn about current historic preservation efforts in ATL.
My one beef with Phoenix Flies is that many of their events take place in the middle of the day on weekdays. I’m interested in this stuff, but I can’t justify taking a day off work to go on a historic walking tour of Grant Park. I hope that in the future, they’re able to offer more evening and weekend options for us 9 to 5ers.
