The Atlanta BeltLine Partnershi­p recently announced the grand opening of the Atlanta BeltLine Center on April 28, according to a press release. Located in ABP’s Stoveworks offices with direct access to the Eastside Trail, the Center, funded by private philanthro­py, will be a place where people can learn about the Atlanta BeltLine through exhibits, interactiv­e displays and programs that highlight the project’s history, scope and impact.

“The Atlanta BeltLine Center will support the Partnershi­p’s mission to fundraise, program and advocate for the BeltLine by providing a space to communicat­e the incredible story and vision for the 22-mile corridor of trails, public transit, surroundin­g parks, affordable housing and community connectivi­ty,” said Rob Brawner, ABP’s executive director.

Dallas Clement, chairman of ABP’s Board of Directors, said, “The Atlanta BeltLine is for everyone.”

The Atlanta BeltLine Center officially opens on the weekend of April 28-29 and is free to the public.

To facilitate attendance of Westside residents at the opening weekend celebratio­n, ABP will offer free shuttle bus service on both days between the Center and KIPP Strive Elementary School.

The Center’s normal operating hours will be 4 to 8 p.m. Monday through Friday and 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.
