About this event
Never sweep under someone’s feet, and always throw salt over your shoulder. These are just two of the many superstitions, folk beliefs, and traditions that have been passed down across Georgia and the South for generations. But where did these practices come from? Join the Georgia Room on October 5th as we explore the origins of Southern folklore, uncover the stories behind familiar superstitions, and discover how these beliefs continue to shape culture today.
