Macon’s first ‘Art Stop’ at the intersection of Cherry Street and MLK has been transformed into visual art.
“Make it playful. Make it lighthearted. Not controversial, something that everybody can enjoy,” said Macon artist James Bodell of JR Bodell Sculpture, Inc.
The design, titled ‘Diversity in Motion’, is filled with a variety of colors and shapes. This symbolizes the diversity of people and modes of transportation in the community.

MACON, Ga. With the temperatures dropping, there is an extra push from Macon-Bibb County partners to get as many people out of the cold and to the Brookdale Warming Center.
Right now, they are trying to get the word out about the center and get people there.
It s getting really chilly, and it s only going to get colder over the next couple nights. That s why the county says it s important to get people here who need this center. The key to this, though, is transportation, and that s why the Macon-Bibb County Transit Authority has stepped up to help.
