Located on 35 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds, the Carter Presidential Center is an intown oasis along Freedom Parkway. Atlanta is lucky to be home to one of just 13 presidential libraries in the U.S.
A permanent museum exhibit hits the highlights of Jimmy Carter’s early life and political career. You can step right into an exact replica of President Carter’s Oval Office, and view the Nobel Peace Prize awarded to him for his work with Habitat for Humanity. The permanent exhibit is interactive enough to be interesting to children.
The Carter Center also hosts a few traveling or special exhibits each year, as well as talks by guest lecturers, films, and family-friendly events. Some of these events are free, and the others are low-cost. This page will list current and upcoming events at the Carter Center.
