The Georgia Capitol and Civil Rights:  Built in 1889 to symbolize the ideals of Georgia’s democratic government, the Capitol was inaccessible to many of Georgia’s citizens. Both women and African-Americans had to struggle to make their voices heard and their votes count beneath the gold dome. This tour will use the Capitol’s spaces, memorials and artwork to tell the story of events within the Capitol that both prevented and then provided for equal Representation for all Georgians. Weather permitting, this tour will feature an outdoor portion. 

March 16 tour follows 2:30 pm tour of City Hall.

Tuesdays, March 9 & 16, 4 pm
