The Strand Theatre has been renovated back to its original design and features classical films and other events. The Marietta Museum of History exhibits the history of the city and county. The museum is home to thousands of artifacts including items from Marietta residents and businesses.

Having grown up in the First Baptist Church of Marietta, I had the impression that separating whites from blacks was the idea of the white church members. Come to find out from Ms. Lamuriel Adams, historian at Zion Baptist (founded in 1866 by freed slaves who left First Baptist) that the African-Americans wanted their own church. Differing musical styles were a major part of the reason.
