Exploring the Neighborhoods
Historic West End (Venue Neighborhood – Monday Night Garage)
A Neighborhood with a rich history and vibrant culture, Atlanta’s historic West End is a neighborhood steeped in Black culture, community, and its diverse arts scene. As the backdrop for our 2024 Forum, it provides an important context for discussions on justice, peace, and the complex role tourism plays in both exacerbating and addressing complex community issues.
Old Fourth Ward, AKA O4W (Hotel Neighborhood – Darwin Hotel)
Atlanta’s O4W is one of the most historic pockets of the city. The neighborhood is the birthplace of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, home to the Sweet Auburn Historic District, and the location of Ebenezer Baptist Church. Today, Old Fourth Ward gives visitors the opportunity to engage with its storied history, provides easy access to the Eastside Beltline Trail, and brings together visitors and locals alike at Ponce City Market.
