A few new and significant shows are coming to the High Museum in the near future.

Beginning in October 2009,
an Exhibition featuring the work of Leonardo da Vinci will open. It is the first Exhibition to explore Leonardo's significant role in Renaissance Sculpture and is traveling to U.S. for first time

Another Exhibit titled "The Allure of the Automobile" will be announced this month and will feature the design of the golden age of automobiles from the 1930'-1960's. It will run from March 2010-July 2010.
