Introduction: A Different Kind of Atlanta Attraction

If you’re looking for something truly unique in Atlanta, the Sloomoo Institute offers a hands-on, playful experience centered entirely around slime—yes, the gooey, stretchy stuff you probably played with as a kid but never thought could be a full-fledged attraction. Located on Peachtree Road, this colorful, interactive space charges $32 per person for about 1.5 hours of sensory joy.
What makes this visit especially appealing? First, you’ll get to handle over 30 types of slime, each with its own textures, colors, and scents. Second, the DIY Bar allows you to craft your very own 8 oz slime to take home, which is perfect for extending the fun. A minor consideration?
