Follow Alice down the rabbit hole as a new story of larger-than-life plants blooms in Atlanta’s Urban Oasis.
Alice’s Wonderland features 38 larger-than-life sculptures in seven installations inspired by Lewis Carroll’s timeless tales, plus Shaggy Dog and the now-iconic Earth Goddess, two pieces in the Garden’s permanent collection from the 2013-14 exhibitions Imaginary Worlds: Plants Larger Than Life and A New Kingdom of Plant Giants.
Let imagination be your guide as you enter the Garden through giant Storybooks. Sneak past the grinning Cheshire Cat looking on as you discover Alice spinning in a whirl of teacups and playing cards. Watch out for the Queen of Hearts and her Chess Set army as you greet the new Singing Flowers on your approach to the 27-foot-tall White Rabbit floating in the Skyline Garden.
Each week in the Children’s Garden, expert horticulturists feature a kid-friendly gardening activity, like seed planting, watering or harvesting, both to keep our Garden beautiful and connect our youngest guests with nature.
Enchanted Trees by Poetic Kinetics marks the return of the artists behind the Garden’s 2021 exhibition of a signature rainbow-hued “Skynet” billowing above the Canopy Walk. The 10 sculptures will be scattered throughout the Garden, drawing onlookers with their dazzling acrylic leaves. Standing from 10 to 17 feet tall, the trees cast dappled light and reflective, shifting colors on everything around them.
