We have our winners! Our 2015
Art Competition had 160 entries from students attending schools throughout Georgia. This competition recognizes student talent throughout the state, using the winning artwork to create signature items to sell at the Garden Gift Shop. Congratulations to our talented winners and many thanks to all who entered. We were very impressed by the selection of art this year.
After a decade of this competition funded by the J.A. and H.G.
Woodruff, Jr. Charitable Trust, we are pleased to announce that there will be a formal art exhibit in the Garden showcasing winners from throughout the year. Please view this exhibit in our Visitor Center from January 10-February 14, 2016.
