Callaway Gardens

Callaway Azaleas
Watercolor
by Pat Fiorello
Every April, I head down to Callaway Gardens in Pine Mountain GA to teach a workshop and enjoy the emergence of spring. If you've never been, it's worth a trip and spring is the perfect time to see the colorful flowers, butterfly garden, go bike riding around the garden, there's lots to do. They even have a spa there now. It's a very peaceful place to get away from it all and spend some time enjoying nature.

If you'd like to join in the fun, here's some information on the workshop which will be  Saturday and Sunday April 20-21. For general information on the gardens, visit www.callawaygardens.com.
There is a hotel associated with Callaway where you can spend the night. Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions.
Hope you'll come out to play!
