Putting It in Perspective
Put the finishing touches on your tour by stopping at the Earle W. Newton Center for British-American Studies, housed in an 1856 three-story Greek Revival on Martin Luther King, Jr., Boulevard. There you'll find a collection of photography that includes works by Mathew Brady, Eudora Welty, and Gordon Parks. Other rooms show off an antique map collection and 15th-century prints. Upstairs (like many historic buildings, there is no elevator), more galleries rotate shows.
You'll discover other great spaces as you wander through the historic district. And in each place, you'll see SCAD's colorful new palette upon Savannah.
Savannah College of Art and Design: (912) 525-5000 or www.scad.edu. All SCAD galleries are free and open daily. For information on other independently owned galleries, visit www.savannahvisit.com.

Pictures at an Exhibition
Another way to enjoy SCAD's works is to join the free gallery hop on the first Friday evening of the month (September-May). Shuttles run loops between the showrooms and studios, where you can sample hors d'oeuvres and beverages while looking at the art.
