This is the final week to see this year's Scarecrows in the Garden at the Atlanta Botanical Garden! Remember that they're doing timed-entry tickets. They will take walk-ups, but this close to Halloween I recommend buying your scheduled tickets ahead of arrival to ensure you get to see this wonderful exhibition. This last day to see them is Sunday, October 31.

"Rosie the Vaccinator" by Assistance League of Atlanta
The Assistance League of Atlanta is back!
If you've been to Scarecrows in the Garden before, you just might recognize this "face", but as different charcters. She once even wore a blue dress, ruby slippers, and carried around her little dog in a basket. There's some truly delightful creativity at the Assistance League of Atlanta and they have an awesome thrift shop!

"Mr. Le-crow" by Buzzell-Holmes Family
Here's your chance to enjoy some awesome Lego creativity without the possibility of stepping on one. Great news, right?!
Speaking of evenings, Fest-of-Ale is also going on through the rest of the month. It's the Garden's annual "beer festival" (try their exclusive "Garden Beer"!), evenings 5pm-8pm. If you go to Fest-of-Ale and want to see all the Scarecrows, go early because the Children's Garden closes at dusk/dark, but if you don't make it early there are still plenty to see on the other paths!

"Illumi" by Zoo Atlanta
Illumi is interactive! Take a photo and then take another one with your flash on. This one is in the Crepe Myrtle Allèe.
Illumi is also an advert for Zoo Atlanta's upcoming and brand new IllumiNights at the Zoo, presented by Georgia Power. It's a Chinese Lantern Festival that opens to the general public November 22, 2021 through January 16, 2022. This nighttime event will feature more than 80 animal lanterns, some of them up to 20 feet tall!!!

"Venus"
You'll find "Venus" at the entry to the Canopy Walk. I think she's brilliant! You can see some live Venus Fly Traps over in the Skyline Garden.

While you're there, and also closing this Sunday, October 31, are SUPERnatural: Aerial Art in Motion and SUPERnatural: Glass Art in Bloom, so you have many great reasons to go to the Garden this week! |

"Don't Make Me Put My Foot Down" by Mountain View High School
When I saw where the grilling flamingo's are is when I realized that the display areas have been expanded.
At first glance I wondered if they were Australian flamingos—because of the "shrimp on the barbie"—but, alas, there are no flamingos in Australia, not anymore. So, they're just having a great time grilling out! The detail on this display is brilliant...great job Mountain View High School!

"Tyranno-STRAW-rus-Rex" by The Howell Family
If you're thinking about entering a Scarecrow in next year's event, involve the whole family! "Tyranno-STRAW-rus-Rex" was created by the very clever Howell Family.
Remember to get your tickets online to see Scarecrows in the Garden to ensure you don't show up to a sold-out day or evening, especially if you're wanting to go Halloween weekend!

Awesome and entertaining article. I support you. Keep on writing Thankyou!
Hi! This is my first visit blog! Useful information, great. Thank you so much
What a fun, imaginative exhibit the Atlanta Botanical Garden puts on! It's neat that they have expanded the scarecrow display area, a detail I totally missed at first. Remembering the time I went to a friday night funkin concert, I had only checked the main stage area and completely missed the smaller side stages. The scarecrow creators really showed their creativity, huh?
The expansion of the display areas immediately caught my eye, especially the playful touch of the grilling flamingos. It’s fascinating how small details like the shrimp on the barbie can lead to a surprising discovery about the flamingos’ origins. I once faced a similar mix-up while chatting on Omegle, confusing one region’s culture with another simply because of a quirky local phrase. Mountain View High School did an excellent job bringing this scene to life with humor and creativity.
Discovering ways to enjoy creativity without the usual hassles always brightens my day. Imagine a space where fun and innovation meet safety, just like in the article's mention of exploring Lego without the dreaded step-on pain. I remember once shopping at Monkey Mart, hunting for craft supplies, and realizing a kid had scattered tiny LEGO pieces all over the floor—what a challenge to navigate without injury! Events like Fest-of-Ale offer unique community vibes, blending art and leisure perfectly.
