CALLANWOLDE FINE ARTS CENTER
SUMMER 2024
Update From Our Executive Director
Callanwolde in the News The media has covered so much of the incredible work we are doing for underserved communities at Callanwolde that I thought I ’ d share some of the highlights . At the end of last summer , Callanwolde hosted 50 children from Cedar Grove Elementary , a Title I school in south DeKalb , for a week of Art Scholars Camp . Atlanta News First interviewed two students , the principal , and yours truly , regarding the amazing impact the camp had on all the kids . Atlanta News First was back again during last year ’ s Winter House , featuring Finance Director , Chelsea Walker , and her kids , enjoying a stress - free experience with our very own Sensory Santa ( a . k . a ., Steve Cole ).

The Atlanta Journal Constitution featured a very moving interview with Air Force Veteran and jewelry making student , Rhonda Lawson .
Our partnership with the ESOL program at Lakeside High School also caught the AJC ’ s attention with an article entitled , “ An Opportunity to be a ‘ Regular Teenager ’”. On April 10th of this year , the AJC announced the public phase of Callanwolde ’ s capital campaign . Two new buildings will be added to the campus to keep up with the growth of enrollments . A new Pottery Building , adjacent to the kiln yard , will accommodate 98 more students . The Mr . and Mrs . William C . Warren III Flex Arts Building will include three dance studios and two painting and drawing studios .
