Bring your friends and family, and share in the experience of enjoying our city streets as public space!
Join Bike Walk Macon and the Reimagining the Civic Commons Committee for the return of Open Streets Macon on Sunday, September 28, from 2 PM to 6 PM! Experience Monroe Street, Tattnall Street, and Oglethorpe Street as they become a giant, paved park. The street will be closed to motorized traffic for Maconites to enjoy their city streets as public space. There is no registration, and Open Streets Macon is FREE and open to the public.
Open Streets Macon is a car-free celebration of public space; bringing people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds together to walk, skate, bike, play, and re-imagine how we use our public streets.
