I think I've done 6-7 escape rooms at Escape the Space. I've gone with as few as three people or with a large group that rented the entire facility. Each time, I had a blast! The rooms were challenging but fun, and the game masters also do a good job of not providing too many hints or help. If you are in the Athens area, give them a try. They will be accommodating of your group; you won't be disappointed!

This place should be on the national register of historic places. Have been in Wuxtry records many times over the past year and it’s always a pleasant experience. All kinds of new and used vinyl and CDs, even posters. They also offer fair prices on albums you want to sell. They even sell a limited selection of stereo gear and have an assortment of used, vintage stuff next door that they’ll show you on request. They have a sweet Audio Technica turntable and Edifer speaker special we took advantage of that is affordable and an excellent value. The Edifers are great and have enough lower end to fill out a full sound for a small to medium sized room. Helpful, quirky, interesting, resourceful, knowledgeable, and friendly. Wuxtry has been around a long time and it’s perfected the art of being exactly what it should be - an extraordinary experience.

Escape rooms are the newest craze sweeping the nation. By combining scavenger hunts with secret codes and puzzles and placing them in a fun and immersive setting, escape rooms are a great way to take a break from reality. The experience begins when a team of up to 8 "Escape Artists" (composed of family, friends, and strangers) are locked in a room and have 60 minutes to achieve the goal and escape. The challenges will require the artists to work together and use every bit of their wit, critical thinking and problem solving skills to discover, analyze, and solve the puzzles needed to get out. Book your experience with us today and let us help you ESCAPE REALITY!

The Georgia Museum of Art is the official state museum of art, is located on the University of Georgia campus, and our new ticketed admission is free (at https://georgiamuseum.org/visit/). The museum presents works from the permanent collection as well as frequent temporary exhibitions from other institutions or generated in-house. Educational programming is now all virtual and includes tours, a monthly family day, teen studios, Yoga in the Galleries and guided mindfulness. Hours: Thursday, 10 a.m.–9 p.m.; Friday and Saturday, 10 a.m.–5 p.m.; and Sunday, 1–5 p.m. The museum is closed on major US holidays. Mission statement: The Georgia Museum of Art shares the mission of the University of Georgia to support and to promote teaching, research, and service. Specifically, as a repository and educational instrument of the visual arts, the museum exists to collect, preserve, exhibit and interpret significant works of art.
The museum changes fairly frequently since they have entire areas dedicated to traveling exhibits. I was shown around by a friend who goes to the college and I thoroughly enjoyed most of the art available. My only complaint is there was one employee that was particularly rude to my friend. My friend had a completely sealed container of water and the employee was trying to make us walk all the way downstairs and get a locker for it. We ended up just putting it on a table outside of the exhibit room.
