Intown Atlanta's first choice for DIY art.
The Scene
This magnificent 1920s Tudor-style mansion is the former home of Charles H. Candler, oldest son of Coca-Cola founder Asa Candler. The beautifully landscaped grounds of this gracious old estate spark its purpose today: nurturing talent and stirring creativity.
The Draw
Grand ballrooms that once reverberated with socialite gaiety now hum with intown's eclectic mix of muse-seekers, pursuing a variety of artistic disciplines: painting, dance, drama, music, photography, pottery, handloom weaving, writing and others. One of Callanwolde's most outstanding programs is the choral training offered to children 8-18. Members of the highly acclaimed Atlanta Young Singers of Callanwolde participate in national and international concert tours.
