There is no better way to enjoy the day than to paint it. Painting on location throughout downtown Savannah, this fall session will focus on the combination of architecture and nature found in the views of our beautiful squares. Start with the basic materials, add the right tools and techniques, and let painting outdoors become a lifelong passion. Learn to work in oils to create impressions of Downtown Savannah. Explore painting techniques, composition, color, and creative expression in an upbeat and encouraging atmosphere.

WHAT ELSE: Unlock the symbolism of historic church interiors with Dr. Herringer at the GMH. Her upcoming talk details the Victorian Gothic revival in British Anglo-Catholic churches. Learn how new features—from raised altars to rood screens—were driven by changes in Eucharistic doctrine. The presentation will also feature local insights into the interior of St. John’s Church.
From the GMH Director: “We cannot understand nineteenth-century architecture without studying churches. Our goal is to bridge that gap.”
About the speaker: Carol Engelhardt Herringer is Professor of History at Georgia Southern University, where she teaches World History, British history, and a course on vampires in history and culture. She has served as chair of the History department at Georgia Southern University (2019-2024) and before that as chair of the Department of History at Wright State University, Dayton, Ohio (2010-2016). She is the author of Victorians and the Virgin Mary: Religion and Gender in England 1830-85 (Manchester UP, 2008) and a number of articles and essays on Victorian religion and culture, as well as the co-editor of Edward Bouverie Pusey and the Oxford Movement (Anthem, 2012). She is currently working on a book project on the cultural significance of debates over the Eucharist in the Victorian Church of England.

Works in Progress
A Build Day happy hour.
Upstairs at Foxy Loxy on Bull Street.
For people building something. Also for people with an idea and nobody to build it with. Both count.
Sharing, not selling. Not a seminar, not a pitch night. Show and tell for practitioners, tinkerers, and anyone who wants to be around people who are finding out.
We asked a few folks to open with what they’re working on. Five minutes each. Something you built, an agent you put to work, a model that surprised you, an experiment that flopped. Then we stick around and find each other.
Savannah has more of this going on than it looks like from the outside. Come see.
Free to attend. We just ask that you support Foxy by buying a drink or three.
Please let us know if you are attending.
We will post the scheduled speakers once we nail it down. Want a slot? Email SavannahBuildDay@gmail.com

Southern baking has a pie for every season, and this class explores two of its most beloved forms. You’ll make both icebox pies and hand pies, learning how to create flaky pastry, smooth fillings, and the right balance of sweetness, texture, and acidity.

From cool, creamy slices to golden, fruit-filled pockets fresh from the oven, the class covers the fundamentals behind both styles while leaving plenty of room for seasonal ingredients and familiar flavors. A nostalgic, satisfying afternoon of baking from start to finish.
