Students go back in time to experience the Civil War Margaret Mitchell style! Students explore the apartment where Mitchell wrote her Pulitzer Prize-winning book and learn how the Civil War, the Roaring 1920s, and World War II relate to Margaret Mitchell's life. Students also have a chance to be a writer just like Margaret Mitchell, and enjoy other fun-filled, hands-on activities.
The tour also includes a visit to the new exhibition, The Making of a Film Legend: Gone With the Wind, where students view artifacts from the movie, learn about the 1939 movie premiere in Atlanta, and see how the book was transformed for the silver screen.
