Dogwood Festival

from Archive Atlanta · host Victoria Lemos

Atlanta's obsession with the dogwoods dates back to the 1920s, but the Dogwood Festival was the brainchild of Lorraine Cooney, who launched the first festival in 1936, at the height of the Great Depression. This week we're talking about the tree, the city's initiatives, the first grand festival and how it progressed over the last 85 years. Want to support this podcast?
