Join the Georgia Historical Society and leaders from across the state as Gov. Nathan Deal and the Georgia Historical Society induct the 2018 Georgia Trustees, Ed Bastian and Paul Bowers. GHS presents “A Royal Intent,” an event inspired by King George II’s 1732 Charter of Georgia.

It is our will and pleasure to celebrate the newest Georgia Trustees in deed and in name, as well as their heirs and successors, with an evening of dinner, dancing and lively conversation with the newest Trustees.
