Nice coverage of activities at the Booth; glad to see that the AJC realizes the ‘importance’ of that museum and all it has to offer the Southeast. We love the West and find that the museum brings a sampling of the West to the South! World class museum with lectures by visiting Western artists. Thank goodness the museum is only 40 minutes from Buckhead. Thanks for helping us schedule the various events they produce!

Great Booth Article. The Museum is a treasure for anyone to have and Cartersville is very lucky to have it located there. Their many programs help a lot of people and kids to appreciate art.

The Booth is a never-ending source of fun and information on art, the “Old West”, and the history of discovery. Not to be missed!

Anyone looking for excellence in the art and history of the American West should visit the Booth Western Art Museum in Cartersville. In addition to beautiful art housed in an easily accessible, well-designed building, the museum offers educational tours for children and daily highlight tours for adults.

Thanks for your article on the Booth museum! It’s one of the best kept secrets in Cartersville. We moved to NW Georgia 2 yrs ago, and I became a docent last year and absolutely love it. The folks who work there are wonderful–they’re so friendly and helfpul. They do everything with excellence. I’m retired military, and being a docent is one of the best things I’ve done since moving here–it’s a great way to meet new people and have fun. Believe their new training class starts in Nov–highly recommend checking it out!

When I went to volunteer, I never thought that I would become a Docent. Guiding school children as well as adults throught this Museum is indeed one of the highlights of my life, and I am 76 years of age, so I have been fortunate to have quite a few, but none this rewarding.

Thanks to the AJC for letting the world have a glimpse of a great thing in an “unexpected” place. My wife and I have visited many art museums around the country, with a special interest in Western art. The Booth Museum is on par with the best of them – a real testament to the excellent work being done by Seth Hopkins and his staff and the generosity of the benefactors. This place is a very real (if not yet widely known) treasure for the whole State of Georgia, and it should be viewed that way by those who are surprised to find it in Cartersville.

We here in Cartersville are so blessed to have the Booth and the Tellus Science Museum. The art at the Booth is inspiring and in many cases of great historical value. Cartersville is a great community and the Symposium will only get better. My husband wants Ramblin Jack Elliot to come next year.
