ATLANTA — The Carter Center and Jimmy Carter Presidential Library and Museum — collectively known as the Carter Presidential Center — have been a cornerstone of Atlanta’s history since their establishment in the 1980s.
Located in the Poncey-Highland neighborhood, just east of downtown, the center is easily accessible from the Downtown Connector.
While the Jimmy Carter Library and Museum joins the long-line of presidential libraries going back to Herbert Hoover and Franklin Roosevelt, the Carter Center next door is a unique expression of the Carters’ desire to continue working for peace, fighting disease and building hope.
