Things to do in Sandy Springs

Williams-Payne House Museum
The Sandy Springs heritage museum is located in Sandy Springs, Georgia, opening in March of 2010, it showcases the history of the area, situated in the refurbished Williams-Payne House that is located on Heritage Green in Sandy Springs, with three outstanding new exhibits. Their anchor exhibit is the biggest and most comprehensive about the region, called Sandy Springs: Land and People, that describes the marvelous story of the area, beginning with the early Native Americans that lived and hunted here, then the arrival of immigrant farmers and onto the modern urbanites. There are interpretive panels that highlight the main transitions that occurred in the city, that included the land rush, the Civil War and the Reconstruction period; along with the impact of WWII, the region's growth during the late 20th century and the struggle it would incur while trying to become a city. There are two changing galleries that provide the museum with in-depth exhibits that complement their own displays about the historical, seasonal and current events, which will provide never-before-seen relics from the region's past as they become available for the first time as exhibits. Another outstanding exhibit is the A Land Nearby that showcases the photography of the state's Barrier Islands by Dr. Curt Hames, Jr. with twenty excellent photographs that somehow capture the natural beauty of the state's marshes and beaches, as if left inside a timeless bubble, pristine and serene, with little changes seen or occurring. The Getaway highlights the various ways that the citizenry has gotten away to other places, and the ones that they visited. Images of America: Sandy Springs is a new photo-history book about the city and is available at many sources including the museum, online and at the museum's office. The area has become such a significant part of the community offering concerts by the springs, events and programs around the grounds, the Sandy Springs Festival, private parties, meeting rooms, the entertainment lawn, weddings, history and other exciting and interesting happenings that continue to bring folks in and educate or just entertain them.

Sandy Springs Historic Community Foundation
The Sandy Springs Society is the biggest philanthropic organization in the city, starting in 1989, when sixteen women would get together to form a philanthropic society that would benefit the community, at about the same time that it became an unincorporated suburb of Atlanta. The women wanted to organize a group of women that would utilize their collective talents to raise money for the needs of the community and form long lasting relationships with others that share the same ideas of community support. When the group had their first meeting, their society had grown to number 108 charter members, with the majority still helping and being involved today. To enter into this special group of women, you must be invited, along with certain other stipulations that pertain to the community and the society. The group had started as the Sandy Springs Historic Community Foundation, while the subsequent Heritage Sandy Springs would be started to promote a sense of community and to preserve the history of the city, with their meeting site, usually the springs themselves, since it had a source of fresh drinking water. The Creek Indians would be the first recorded visitors at the springs, and as the east moved west and south, it would be the perfect place for travelers to stop over and have a clear cool drink from the springs, as well as becoming a site for church camp meetings, and now, the place that has become known as the Heritage Green, has been enlarged to include a four-acre park that includes the Heritage Sandy Springs Museum, landscaped gardens, outstanding walking trails and the Sandy Springs Society Entertainment Lawn. It has actually become the heart of the city, and a big part of the culture and history of the city, a favorite for locals and tourists alike.

The Art School in Sandy Springs
The Art School in Sandy Springs, Georgia is changing the way art is taught, and what makes this school even more significant is that it is bringing talented and professional artists from around the country to come here and teach whatever medium that they are proficient in. It began with a dream, by founder, local artist and past gallery owner, Donna Thomas, who has a real love and passion for the arts. She started out with just one room, offering classes in various mediums and styles, eventually broadening her scope and those of the fortunate community members that are now able to come to the school and learn just about any kind of artistic endeavor they might choose. Donna offers classes by local, national and even international instructors that are quite accomplished in their medium, featured in books, radio, newspapers, magazines or represented in galleries. The school provides a wide range of classes, in so many mediums, with outstanding artists, well known in their own circles, and ready to teach anyone that is willing to learn. Whether you are a beginner, novice, in-between, expert or might not even know where to begin; then this is the school that is just for you or any member of your family. Donna strives to keep the class size low, so that individual attention can be given to all the students, with the classes usually running for six weeks at a time. It is also, one of the few schools in the city of Atlanta that offers encaustic, which is an old wax medium of painting. The school has hosted many juried shows throughout the area, and has a great relationship with the local galleries if you would enjoy showing your works. They have weekend classes, one day classes and just about anything that you could need or want. If you feel that you have excellent talents in any venue and wish to teach a class or more, they even accept applications at their website; which also has ideas about starting your own website so that you can showcase your own works and put them up for sale. Some of the classes that are just about ready to start include; figure and costumed oil painting, designing and creating expressive landscapes, landscape and still life in pastel, figure drawing simplified, middle school art class, creating drama in your works, and so much more that you would have to check it out yourself.

Georgia's Governor's Mansion
The Governor's mansion is situated in the Buckhead district of Atlanta, Georgia and constructed on land that had been owned by former Atlanta mayor, Robert Maddox, that owned a big English Tudor style house on the property. It would almost be completely destroyed by fire, so Maddox would sell the land to the state, who would demolish the remainder of the old house so that it could construct the new governor's mansion. That mansion is a three story, 30 room, Greek Revival style house that was constructed in 1967, and sits on 18 marvelous acres, designed by local architect, Thomas Bradbury, opening up in 1968. A terrible tornado would visit the mansion in 1975, and heavily damage it, only a week after the new governor, Busbee, had moved in after his inauguration, which would force the state to restore it. The tornado would gain the infamous name of "the governor's tornado" and would be the worst tornado to hit the city until 2008, when a tornado ripped through parts of downtown. It would be repaired to await the next disaster, while the space inside measures 24,000 square feet, and has thirty Doric columns that are located on the porches. These particular columns had been made from California redwoods and were each 24 feet tall. The columns were hollowed out so that the water from the roof would have someplace to run, so they were specially treated to withstand the wear from that water. There are many trees located on the grounds, along with tennis courts, greenhouse, swimming pool and children's play area. The main feature of the entrance is the Georgia marble fountain that contains three big flagpoles. Every piece of furniture and all the furnishings are considered to be museum quality pieces, which now contains one of the finest Federal period collections in the country, acquired by a 70 person fine arts committee as the mansion was being built and is now a permanent collection. Lester Maddox would be the first governor to live here, then Jimmy Carter, George Busbee, Joe Frank Louis, Zell Miller, Roy Barnes, Sonny Perdue and currently, Nathan Deal.
