Tis the season! Georgia Southern PAC announces 2026 holiday performance lineup

The Georgia Southern University Performing Arts Center (PAC) is kicking off the holiday season later this month with family-friendly events that last through the days leading up to Christmas. Director Daniel Brown and his team have planned a full slate of activities centered around their annual Christmas production, continuing their hope to make the PAC a welcoming and essential part of the community’s holiday plans. “Every year we look to plan a Christmas show," Brown said. "The reception to last year’s, ‘I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas’ was so positive that we chose to book two holiday shows this year, ‘Frosty: A Musical Adventure’ and ‘Jim Curry presents John Denver’s A Rocky Mountain Christmas’.” The first show, Frosty: A Musical Adventure, is based on the iconic Christmas song “Frosty the Snowman.” A young orphan named Billy discovers magic in a stolen hat, and when he places it on a snowman’s head, that snowman comes to life! Can Frosty help Billy find his real family in time for Christmas? Join them in a thrilling quest through New York City as they discover that the real magic of the season is love.

Georgia's Former Army Base Is Now A National Monument With Civil War Relics And Historic Trails

The U.S. state of Georgia may be best known for its bustling capital city, Atlanta, but the Peach State is also rich in history, being home to hundreds of Civil War battle sites. On Cockspur Island just outside Savannah, often called the friendliest U.S. city by tourists, sits a 19th-century fort known as Fort Pulaski. Once the site of a major siege during the Civil War, today the fort is a registered National Monument with historical relics and seaside trails open to the public. Visitors can explore the fort grounds inside and out via Ranger tours or self-guided discovery, learn something new at the Visitor Center, and walk and bike along scenic hiking paths.
