Maya Angelou Tribute in Freedom Park

Freedom Park Conservancy is pleased to announce that Stan Herd will be installing a tribute to Maya Angelou  “And Still – I Rise” portrait earthwork of Maya Angelou in Freedom Park at the Meadow at Moreland Avenue in the coming days. This project was sponsored by the City Park Department and the Mayor’s Office of Cultural Affairs.
Once installed the installation will remain for about two weeks. So,plan a walk soon to visit the installation honoring Maya Angelou.
 
BUS
For easiest access, board bus 6 at the Inman Park Station, which has a stop next to the park. Bus 6 also connects with the Lindbergh Center Station on the red/gold rail line. It is free to ride the bus if you are transferring from a train.
Bus 16 departs from Five Points and downtown Atlanta and stops near the park and bike trail near the Jimmy Carter Presidential Library.

BIKE
If you have a bike, follow the above directions to reach the PATH, but cross over Euclid Avenue and North Highland Avenue while on the trail. At this point the PATH merges with another trail near the Carter Center. Keep to the right and the bike path will take you straight to the intersection of Moreland Ave and Freedom Parkway.  Crossover Moreland to the Meadow
