Exploring Polymer Clay Around The World

In the early 1980s, a simple toy designed by a Hungarian inventor named Erno Rubik was turning the world upside-down. At about the same time, children and adults were equally intrigued by a new modeling material that was just as colourful, and just as captivating.

Four decades after its invention, polymer clay artist and teacher Tracy Holmes invites the world to put a new face on the Rubik's Cube, and celebrate the versatility of an art medium that has become almost as internationally pervasive as the simple six-sided puzzle.

The hotel does not offer a shuttle service from the airport. There are a number of shuttle, taxi, limousine, or public rail service options available. We encourage attendees to network prior to arriving in Atlanta and arranging to share the expense of transportation to the Wyndham, or consider the MARTA (Metro Atlanta Rail Transportation System) for less expensive alternatives.

The hotel does run a shuttle (7 AM to 10:30 PM) to MARTA, which you can catch at the airport, and if you're flying in this is probably the easiest way all around to get from the airport to the hotel. The hotel is on the Red line and the stop is SANDY SPRINGS. it will take approximately 35-40 minutes to get to the hotel via MARTA from the airport.  I

If taking MARTA and wanting a pickup , I'd suggest calling the hotel before the train leaves (or en route ) to let them know your expected arrival time. Phone for hotel is 1-770-955-1700.

NOTE:  If you come in after 7 PM  (I'd suggest probably 6:30), you need to take the Gold train to Lindbergh, then transfer to the Red line to continue to Sandy Springs. You will need a Breeze Card, which you can buy at the airport to take MARTA.

One single-trip ticket is currently $2.50, however if you are changing trains in the evening (see note above) you will need a Breeze Card. Verify dates and times to be sure trains are running during your time frames. MARTA can also be an option to help you explore other areas in Atlanta during your visit.
