Newcomer Days are welcoming, low-pressure events designed to help new Athens residents connect with local history, community resources, and one another. Each event includes refreshments, a tour of the historic Church-Waddel-Brumby House, brief presentations from local government agencies, and a hands-on activity where participants design and create their own hand-stamped tote bag to take home.
