ATLANTA, Ga. — If you’re missing getting out of the house, live music and cocktails with friends, here’s a chance to enjoy all three.
The Atlanta Botanical Garden hosts Cocktails in the Garden Tuesdays through Sundays from 5-9 p.m. Experience the giant plant sculpture exhibition Alice’s Wonderland Reimagined. The exhibit features several of the story’s loveable characters created using the centuries-old art of mosaiculture in which steel forms are covered in fabric, filled with soil and planted with thousands of living plants.
