Take the kids to the Center for Puppetry Arts for a closer look at one of the main forms of child entertainment. Check out the center's museum to see how puppets are made, and get a look at some of famous puppeteer Jim Henson's work while learning about his legacy in the puppet world. After exploring the museum's attractions, watch a puppet production of stories like The Ugly Duckling, The Headless Horseman of Sleepy Hollow, and Peter Pan.

Take pride in a true American, Southern art form at the Atlanta Jazz Festival. The jazz genre has deep roots in the South, and Atlanta has celebrated those roots for the past thirty years. The Paul Mitchell Trio, Art Blakely, Don Cherry, Freddie Hubbard, John McLauglin, Herbie Hancock, and Miles Davis are just a few jazz legends who have played at the ATL Jazz Fest.

Rain or shine, you can always do some recreational rock climbing at the Stone Summit Rock Climbing. Stone Summit invites both beginners and pros to ascend the rock walls throughout the center; the walls range in height from 25 feet to 60 feet. If you still need a workout after your climb, Stone Summit offers a bouldering room, a yoga studio, spin classes, and a fitness center.

Attend an event at the Infinite Energy Center, one of Atlanta's premier event venues.

Check the calendar at Gwinnett Center to catch hockey or basketball games, art exhibitions and craft shows, and a broad spectrum of performances from ballet, to opera, and major concerts.
