Whether you are looking for something to do with the kids, with friends, or a cheap date idea, this book offers more than enough suggestions to keep busy all year.

Visit a Museum. Popular museums like the High Museum of Art, Children's Museum of Atlanta and even the Georgia Aquarium have ways to visit for free. In addition, there are several museums that are free all the time, like the Heritage Park Veteran's Museum where you can see military vehicles, uniforms and artifacts. In addition, the park has a nice play structure, walking path and historic buildings.

See a Movie. Free outdoor movies are very popular in Atlanta and every year it seems like there is a new location offering popular flicks. Bring a blanket and a picnic or just some cool treats and enjoy an evening with friends.
