Georgia Perimeter College held its "Awesome Autumn" Open House at the Newton campus Saturday.

College-bound students, community residents and their families made their way to the school to find out more about the college.

"We’re very excited regarding the turnout of our festival," Keith Cobbs, GPC Dean of Student Services said.

"The purpose of the open house was to connect the community with our campus and to increase our enrollment."

The open house included campus tours and information about classes and financial aid.

In addition, free food, games and vendors from the community were part of the event.
