Learn more about downtown businesses with this coloring book
AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW/WAGT) - Friday is National Coloring Book Day, and it just so happens to coincide with Beautify Augusta selling its 2,000 “Downtown Augusta Coloring Book”.
Organizers with the nonprofit say the goal of the coloring book was to highlight local business owners and the parts of the Garden City that make it unique.
“So, the book is filled with people who have businesses in a downtown space. You’ll find the name of the business owner, what they look like and you’ll how the front of their business looks. The point of that is to help people who are not familiar with downtown to become more familiar with the people who invest in downtown,” said Jeremy Rueggberg with Beautify Augusta.

3D printers, a sound mixer, a green screen, headphones and more are all at the Augusta Richmond County Public Library.
Thanks to the success of this book, Beautify Augusta is using the money raised to bring another mural to downtown.
Art Reed will be the artist, who has already created several large murals in downtown.
The location of this new mural will be announced next week.
The coloring books are $10. You can find them around a ton of local businesses downtown.
