PHOENIX FLIES 2026 | Stories of Freedom Park

Join us to explore the Poncey-Highland area of Freedom Park, a hidden gem with a rich history. We’ll tell the story of the park’s creation, stories of people who lived here and think about the many people who helped turn this greenspace into a park for all.

Today Freedom Park stretches across 130 acres. Join us for a 90-minute walk to learn more about a quiet corner of the park. We will share stories from the 19th century and stories about the dedicated 20th century effort to preserve Atlanta’s intown neighborhoods.
- Meet at the Peace Bell Tower, built in the style of a Japanese temple, located near the central circular drive of the Jimmy Carter Presidential Museum and Library.
