The Savannah College of Art and Design hosts it's annual SCAD Sidewalk Arts Festival this coming Saturday, April 25th. As usual the perfect venue for this art al fresco event takes place around thirty acre Forsyth Park between the southern end of Savannah's Landmark Historic District and the start of the Victorian District.
There are numerous contests in Savannah's annual artsy rite of spring festival, including chalk-drawing competitions for students, alumni and prospective students as well as the Fantastic Fishes Art Contest. The FFA contest is sponsored by renowned Gray's Reef National Marine Sanctuary, another uniquely Savannah getaway destination - where else can you combine the historic district, art, and our National Reef Sanctuary adjacent to our Georgia Coastal all in the same weekend?
In addition to the traditional chalk art competition, the festival will feature sumptuous seafood and other delectables from local restaurants, live music, student and faculty art exhibitions and areas for young artists. So if you are planning a much needed getaway to Savannah later week, plan to be there are be square - at the Sidewalks Art Festival in the Park that is!
