Where Soul Lives and the South Rocks!
Historic Macon was listed this month by Bloomberg as one of the Top 21 Places to Visit in 2023. With music history, multiple museums, historic architecture, vibrant downtown, being a popular movie location, and exuding Southern charm, Macon is celebrating its Bicentennial this year. Located a little over an hour south of the Atlanta airport, it sits in the middle of the state at the intersection of I-75 and I-16.
Let the Huguenot Society of Georgia roll out the red carpet and fill you with the Southern charm of historic Macon this October!
Our Society will have a meeting and luncheon at The Army and Navy Club in Washington, D. C., on April 12. This will occur during the traditional Hereditary Fortnight.
