Sounds of the season ring out in Atrium
By DeAllous Smith

December is truly the most wonderful time of the year. As passengers travel to start new traditions and celebrate old ones, Hartsfield-Jackson invites them to share in its own festive tradition: the Holiday Music Series.

“Our music programs are wonderful opportunities for passengers to pause and reflect as they travel to their destinations,” said Katherine Marbury, Airport Art Program manager. “Hartsfield-Jackson has always shared in the spirit of the holidays through music. Even the Grinch could not take away the joy of this treat!”

Frequent travelers know that the Airport has a rich tradition of offering musical programs throughout the year. Other music series include Black History Month, Latino Heritage Month and JazzFest.

“It’s about giving back to our customers and employees,” Marbury said. “In addition to the great art exhibits housed at the Airport, our passengers have overwhelmingly supported the Airport’s music series. It’s a great way to relax and unwind.”

The December music series will be held in the Atrium every weekday, December 14-23, from 5 to 7 p.m.
