“All the art centers in Cobb County are working to quickly produce a hybrid of virtual and in person classes. Additionally, we are working hard to create new digital content to keep the public informed and educated about the arts.

“Please note—facilities will operate with limited public access which is dependent upon occupancy, based on recommendations from the CDC. Screening processes are in place to enter the facilities.”

Cobb government has been working under “Limited Operational Services” since March and last weekend that status changed, as county employees who had been teleworking returned to their offices.

Among the exceptions are libraries (seven branches will be reopening on a limited basis July 6) and senior centers.

County courthouses are open with some court business being conducted, but restrictions are in place due to a statewide judicial state of emergency and open and some court business is underway. However, the statewide Judicial State of Emergency order in effect through July 12 keeps many restrictions in place.

Also, starting Monday, you can reserve pavilions at selected park facilities that will be available starting July 1. All parties must follow social distancing practices and may have no more than 50 people.

The online form to apply can be found here; large event venues, including the Jim Miller Event Center, the Mable House Barnes Amphitheatre and Cobb Civic Center are still closed until further notice.
