BEN T. EPPS, GEORGIA’S FIRST AVIATOR,

Congratulations to the Ben Epps Statue Committee for their successful campaign to raise funds for and create a statue of Ben T. Epps, Georgia’s first aviator! The statue was unveiled on Saturday, December 3, at its home on Washington Street opposite 120 E. Washington Street, the location of the shop where Epps built the first airplane to fly in Georgia.

The Ben Epps Statue Committee partnered with the Athens-Clarke Heritage Foundation, a 501(c) (3) organization, to raise money to commission and place the statue.

Who was Ben Epps?
