You are warmly welcomed to our annual fine arts and crafts fair, hosted in historic Gordonston's Juliette Gordon Low Park.

Welcome to the application page. Please carefully read the following:
1917
Savannah’s Gordonston neighborhood was founded in 1917 in honor of William Washington Gordon III, brother of Girl Scouts founder, Juliette Gordon Low. This 80-acre tract of land is said to be the highest ground in Savannah. It was inherited by W.W. Gordon III and his siblings, whose family was earlier responsible for the establishment of the Central of Georgia Railroad. Gordonston is one of Savannah’s original streetcar suburbs as it was located on the Thunderbolt streetcar line. It now contains 238 homes built primarily in the 1920’s—the 1950’s.
1926
The seven-acre Juliette Gordon Low Park was dedicated in 1926 with an endowment from its namesake. The park is fully enclosed by an iron fence whose original gates were designed and built by Juliette Gordon Low. A fund was established by her to maintain the park into perpetuity for the use of Gordonston residents and especially for its children. The park also contains a playground.
1948
The cottage in the park was built in 1948 by Union Camp Corporation and donated to the Girl Scouts who have been holding meetings in it for generations.
