Stuck at Atlanta Airport? Don’t forget about all the art.

If you’re traveling through Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport this summer, keep in mind (especially during long layovers) that there more than 250 works of art and several history displays throughout the airport.

In addition to an exhibit about Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. atlanta-airport-mlk-exhibit-bigger-image
