Macon's Cox Capitol Theatre possesses an impressive cachet of classic style. Originally built in 1916, this is the place where area audiences first experienced movies that featured sound, then known as “talkies.” Things have progressed quite impressively here, as the entertainment venue still screens some of today's most acclaimed art films and import titles with the help of state of the art sound and projection equipment. But movies aren't the only attraction here, as live music, touring acts and more are always on the ever-busy marquee.

Take advantage of the fact that your kids are naturally curious by giving them plenty to be curious about when you bring them to the Museum of Arts and Sciences in Macon. This impressive museum can be considered a type of window to the world with all of its educational and highly entertaining exhibits and attractions. The recently-added third floor brings even more exploratory fun, as it features an artist's garret, humanist's study, scientist's workshop and an enclosed animal habitat.

Fans of live music always make plans to be a part of the annual Bragg Jam held every last weekend in July. This is a memorial event to Macon brothers Braxx and Tate Bragg and the festival extends over two days that are packed with some incredible live music. These cool concerts feature some of the best local, regional and national acts. In addition to the live music, Bragg Jam attendees will enjoy children's events, arts and crafts, and the highly popular Ocmulgee Adventure Race. Proceeds from this event go to aid the Ocmulgee Heritage Trail.
