Art in the Rotunda

Art in the Rotunda is a rotating exhibit in City Hall’s first floor Rotunda featuring the work of local artists or highlighting local history. This exhibit is available to the general public Monday-Friday 9:00am-5:00pm, except City holidays.

  • Savannah Squares: Patterns for the People: In this series, local artist and art educator Paige Byrne explores the unique patterns in Savannah's twenty-four historic squares, asking herself for each square "How do the patterns of the squares speak to the people of the past and present?" Using a vivid and uplifting color palette, Byrne creatively represents these patterns, both natural and manmade, encouraging the viewer to interact with each square on a new level. Selections from this series now on display at City Hall.
