DRIVING DIRECTIONS
From the bypass, take West Campus Drive and head toward the Georgia College Wellness and Recreation Center. Just past the Wellness and Recreation Center, take the driveway to the right. Follow this driveway a short distance until you see the sign for Lot 30 on your right. Take a right into this parking area. This lot requires a Georgia College “C” or “E” permit, but if you don’t have one we can provide a temporary parking pass.
To get to WRGC's studio, follow the sidewalk between the Wellness and Recreation Center and the Peeler Building. You’ll see us (and hear us) at the end of the walkway.
