Dillard House Stables

Many things have changed since the 1930’s, when Dillard House Stables offered trail rides for fifty cents.  However, the beauty and tranquility of the mountains remains the same.  Another thing that remains unchanged is the famous Dillard House tradition of southern hospitality.

Pam Thompson, owner-operator of Dillard House Stables since 1989, along with her crew of experienced trail guides strive to keep the tradition alive. Pam’s lifetime of experience with horses and 25 years in the “Trail Riding” business allows her the opportunity to offer a safe and enjoyable horseback ride for every level rider.

We have rides to fit the beginner to the experienced.  There are trail rides and the river rides.  Dillard House Stables is one of the only stables where you will be able to actually ride down the middle of a river.  It is exhilarating and thrilling as you and your horse take that first step into the river.  You’ll be hooked for life and want to come back time and time again.

All persons taking rides need to be aware of certain requirements to create a safe riding environment for all involved.  Call the stables or go to the website for more information.

North Georgia Community Players

The North Georgia Community Players (NGCP) and the City of Dillard are a perfect match. The NGCP have been in search of a home and Dillard has long hoped to establish a Cultural Arts Center in one wing of the Dillard City Hall. The two groups were able to combine their hopes when NGCP leased the auditorium and one wing of the Dillard City Hall (Old Dillard School).

At the Dillard City Hall, NGCP has several classrooms to use for storage or dressing rooms, as well as the auditorium for performances. The volunteer group, Home Improvement Ministry (H.I.M. from Clayton Baptist Church), supplies manpower to assist NGCP with auditorium updates. The stage has been extended and many repairs made. NGCP has purchased new sound equipment, an air conditioning-heating system, and new lighting to enhance the enjoyment of theatergoers. It is a work in progress and a labor of love.

Every year, the NGCP entertains area residents and visitors with a variety of performances. Check out the latest schedule and come be entertained!

Foxfire

Imagine a time before electricity, hot-and-cold running water, and the convenience of department stores. Time felt different then. By visiting the Foxfire Museum in Mountain City, GA, guests can imaginatively re-create the works and days of Southern Appalachia in the 1800s.

The Museum provides visitors a rare glimpse of what life was like for the mountaineers who settled this area. A collection of over 20 historic log cabins and replicas of traditional log construction designs, containing artifacts and crafts await visitors.  The Museum provides a glance into the past, including a look at a wagon used to transport the Cherokee Indians over “The Trail of Tears,” during their forced migration to Oklahoma.

Hundreds of high school students, who participate in The Foxfire Magazine classes, have documented the local history.

A gift shop filled with pottery, handcrafted items and books, including The Foxfire Book series is located in the Gate House.  Admission to the Gift Shop is free. Admission to the Museum, which includes one free self-guided tour book per family, is $6.00 per person; children 10 and under are free.  Guided tours are also available by appointment.

Mon. through Sat., 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

The Hambidge Center for Creative Arts and Sciences

The Hambidge Center for Creative Arts and Sciences, one of the three oldest artist residency programs in America, supports the creative process by providing talented artists of all disciplines the setting and the solitude essential to creative work. For more than 70 years, the 600-acre natural environment has been a sanctuary of time and space that allows artists to develop their authentic voices, inspiring them to work at their highest levels of imagination.

Weaver and Georgia native, Mary Crovatt Hambidge, founded the Center in 1934 in memory of Jay Hambidge, artist, scholar and author. Employing local labor, she developed a farm cooperative and refined the talents of community women in spinning and weaving. The Rabun Weavers’ fine woven goods were sold to designers, decorators and celebrities at Rabun Studios on Madison Avenue in New York City.
Although Hambidge is a private retreat, visitors are welcome in the Weave Shed Gallery which schedules three ceramic exhibitions annually.  Lectures, special events and the annual Hambidge Summer Festival in July are also open to the public. The historic Barkers Creek Mill, open on the first Saturday of every month, from 1pm-4pm, is a favorite local destination. Visit the Hambidge website www.hambidge.org regularly for updated event information.  706-746-5718
