With lights aglow, it’s officially time for the holidays. Are you ready? It’s also time to take stock in the joys, pain, growth, and change of the year and rejuvenate. In this issue of Macon Magazine, we certainly celebrate the gift giving and gracious entertaining of the holidays, but also of what it means to build and have a home, giving flowers to those who inspire us and mourning our losses, and focusing our energy on healing. Because we’ve got stories to tell. Explore all this and more in the December/January issue, coming to stands soon. Subscribe today to receive it in your mailbox. When an image exudes the warmth and vitality we see in our beloved Downtown Macon, we knew it was the right one for the moment...and for the ages. Social media maven Autumn Van Gunten and in-demand painter Cedric Smith welcome all as they celebrate one year in their new creative home, Rabbit Hole @rabbitholemacon. Have you been?
