CHEEKWOOD ANNOUNCES SCARECROWS and CALLS FOR DESIGN ENTRIES

Cheekwood Botamical Garden and Art Museum is pleased to announce the second annual exhibition, Scarecrows, on display September 27 through November 9. Dozens of fabulous, weird, funny, and traditional scarecrows will lurk along Cheekwood's paths. The community is invited to participate by designing one of the many scarecrows that will be displayed.
Designers who are selected will receive the framework for the Scarecrow and will be responsible for construction, installation, and removal of each structure. To find out more about participating in the exhibition, visit www.cheekwood.org or call Leigh Anne Lomax at .
The history of scarecrows dates back some 3000 years. Farmers still use scarecrows all over the world. During the growing season scarecrows still stand in fields around the world and each fall many communities have scarecrow contests. Cheekwood's Scarecrows is already a fall tradition for Middle Tennessee families!
