Reynolda at 100: Reynolda Gardens

Drawn largely from the historic photographs and manuscript collections from the Reynolda House Archives, many on display for the first time, this exhibition will show the role the gardens played in Katharine Reynolds's ambitious vision for a New South and how Reynolda Gardens, built to complement and support a working estate, continues its historic mission of education and public access. This exhibition is extended till September 18!
