St. Paul United Methodist Church is located in the historic Grant Park neighborhood of Atlanta, Georgia. For a time in the early 1900s, St. Paul had the largest Methodist congregation in the Southeastern United States. The church organ was acquired at the Cotton States Exhibition in 1887. St. Paul's stained glass windows, which date back to 1907, are being refurbished. St. Paul is a main stop on tours of the Grant Park neighborhood given by the Atlanta Preservation Center. St. Paul is also home to the Grant Park Cooperative Preschool. St. Paul, the Grant Park Cooperative Preschool and the Grant Park Parent Network host the annual Grant Park Candlelight Tour of Homes, which also includes an artist marketplace and a Winter Wonderland for children. The Candlelight Tour of Homes begins at St. Paul.

Eyedrum Art & Music Gallery is a non-profit art space and venue in Atlanta, Georgia, founded by American painter Woody Cornwell and musician and journalist Marshall Avett, and focused on contemporary art and experimental music ranging from contemporary chamber music and sound sculpture to drone noise music and art rock. Until January 1, 2011, the organization was located in the Old Fourth Ward district, and had three art gallery spaces and one space for music and performance. It hosted approximately 180 events yearly. Established in 1998, Eyedrum is one of the longest-running art and performance spaces in Atlanta managed by volunteers. Eyedrum often organizes events in collaboration with community partners, including the annual Listening Machines events with Georgia Institute of Technology, Henry W. Grady High School art department, and The Film Love series of art films. Besides visual art exhibitions and performances it also hosts films, lectures, and other related activities. It hosts a monthly improvisation night focused on exploration of experimentation in music and sound. In the past the music arm of the organization hosted the Table of the Elements Festival and the Rogue Independent Music Festival. Live performances from various acts such as Ken Lockie, Hubcap City, Bill Taft, and Tunnels were recorded at Eyedrum and later released as live albums. Eyedrum Art & Music Gallery is the parent organization of an arts journal Eyedrum Periodically. Published quarterly and online, the magazine offers literary works (poetry, fiction, and essays), visual arts, and works in sound and multimedia in accordance with a succession of themes. Submitting artists may interpret these themes both literally and figuratively. Themes for the first year of publication included "Im/Permanence," "Monsters," In the Streets," and "Drones." The journal is administered by Founding Editor Colleen M. Payton (aka Miriam C. Jacobs), while each issue is managed individually, as are Eyedrum's gallery curations and performance events, by a revolving Lead Editor. Lead editors for the first year, along with Payton, include Hester L. Furey and Bill Taft. The magazine publishes an annual print edition, Best of Eyedrum Periodically. Eyedrum's is an all-volunteer organization with no paid staff. The board of directors is a working board, with members meeting monthly and handling virtually every aspect of running the space, including programming, promotions, accounting, fundraising, and janitorial duties.
