Tenth Annual Savannah Antiques & Architecture Weekend

SAAW is a three-day series of receptions, a luncheon, presentations, and historic house tours benefitting Savannah's historic preservation.

In celebration of our 10th Anniversary this year, we pay tribute to the British influence on our region’s history and lifestyle with world-renowned designer and style icon, India Hicks. As daughter of Lady Pamela Hicks and famed interior designer, David Hicks, India’s style blends her aristocratic British roots with a relaxed island lifestyle.

Presented by the The National Society of The Colonial Dames of America in the State of Georgia, a 501C3 charitable organization, this event supports the ongoing preservation of two of the City’s prominent historic houses, the Andrew Low House Museum and The Green-Meldrim House.
