Winter is never bleak at Bellingrath Gardens and Home! We have expanded our Winter Wednesday program schedule this year and have an interesting, entertaining program every Wednesday in January and February. Bring a friend and spend a little time with us. The Magnolia Café will be open for lunch after each program and the Bellingrath Gift Shop will be getting new merchandise throughout the winter.
Plus, the fee includes admission to the Gardens for the day of the program. We look forward to seeing you - every Wednesday!
  
Reservations are Requested for All Programs.
Reservations May Be Made By Calling 251.973.2217 extension 110.
