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.

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.

Explore history, art, and nature in a unique learning environment at Oakland! Homeschool Day programs offer students the opportunity to engage with one of Atlanta’s most historic landmarks through interactive, hands-on activities based on a different theme each month. Programs are age-appropriate, and educational activities correspond to Georgia Performance Standards. Programs are held at the Visitor Center and outside on the grounds of Oakland Cemetery.

The Museum opens early for families with children on the autism spectrum and children with sensory processing disorders. We offer a sensory-modified experience on select Sunday mornings. This experience includes a sensory-modified setting, limited admission and sound adjustments. Sensory Packs are available upon request at the Welcome Center. We also have a social story to help prepare families for their Museum experience.
