Review:
The High Museum of Art is one of the premiere fine arts institutions of the metro Atlanta region, located within the city's lovely Midtown cultural district. It was founded as the Atlanta Art Association in 1905 and is housed today within the city's landmark Woodruff Arts Center, opened in 1968 to honor the victims of the city's June 1962 plane crash, the world's deadliest aviation incident at the time. Today, the museum is considered to be one of the world's top 100 fine art institutions, welcoming more than half a million annual visitors to view its extensive collections, which are particularly strong in the areas of European, African, and American art. Visitors can explore the museum each second Sunday of the month during the afternoon hours as part of special family-friendly events, which also offer art workshops for all ages.
