A PIVOTAL MOMENT IN HISTORY
from WESmag 2023
Not only do we recognize this moment in our history, but 2023 is also a pivotal year for our hometown. As Macon enters its bicentennial year and the impact of downtown revitalization brings a new vibrancy to the city, it’s abundantly clear there is excitement across the region.
It’s important that our students feel pride in the role the women before them played in shaping this city in order for them to strive to become leaders in its future. As an institution, we need to lead by example. That’s why Wesleyan is recommitting to our presence in the Heart of Georgia.
Throughout the year, you will see Wesleyan at significant events like the Cherry Blossom Festival and the Christmas light display. At the same time, we’re thrilled to be making new partnerships and refreshing old ones across our Macon community.
Wesleyan College will host numerous events celebrating Macon’s bicentennial and the city’s history. We’re also working with the Macon Transit Authority to increase transit options between our campus and the downtown to allow our students better access to all the city offers.
Finally, we are launching a new partnership with the Macon Bacon baseball team to connect with families, highlight our own Wesleyan Wolves, and give our alumnae and friends a fun place to come together.
Join us for a Macon Bacon game at Luther Williams Field on June 24, 2023, for Wesleyan Alumnae Night. This is the perfect opportunity to catch up with old friends and find out what's new at Wesleyan College.
