After chasing down photos of the snow on Saturday, I headed into Atlanta for the third annual Callanwolde Arts Festival. Artists from all over the state were invited to the Callanwolde Fine Arts Center to showcase their talents and their wares as people braved “the weather” to come out and shop.
Callanwolde is a particularly interesting place to hold a festival as the building, actually taking the form of an old mansion, is pretty fancy on the inside. It melds wonderfully with the artworks being displayed throughout the center.
