TAPS Togethers: Piedmont Park Walking History Tour, Atlanta
This event is open to all TAPS survivors, both adults and children, who have experienced a military or veteran loss.
Join your TAPS family for a 60 to 90 minute historical walking tour through Piedmont Park and follow it up with a stroll through the Farmer's Market!
The Piedmont Park History Walking Tours include an introduction to the park's vibrant past and present. The tours are led by Piedmont Park Conservancy Docents. Join us and discover how Piedmont Park's rich history is undeniably intertwined with the development of Atlanta. Together, we'll explore the fascinating historical and physical evolution of iconic Piedmont Park from forest to farm to fairgrounds for the Piedmont Exposition of 1887 and the Cotton States and International Exposition of 1895, to Atlanta's premier urban green space.
