PUT ON FOR
OUR CITY
PHOTOGRAPHY BY MIKE YOUNG
M
acon celebrates 200 years in 2023. To kick off a year
of festivities and programs designed to "strengthen
civic pride by educating the community about our history,
celebrating our accomplishments, acknowledging our past
and promoting a harmonious future," Mayor Miller invites all
to get dressed and ready to celebrate and continue the work
at the Mayor's Sneaker Ball on Dec. 9.
To celebrate, Macon Magazine commissioned local artists
to design sneakers for some special guests. We kicked it up
to next level atop the Macon-Bibb Government Center for
some breathtaking views of our beloved city as she shines
for this moment.
Want to put on for your city? We invite you to read on to learn
how to do just that from our local luminaries. We recommend
doing so in a fresh pair of Macon-made sneakers. After all, you do
want to be prepared to continue to move forward, together.
