Here's your chance to create a piece of public art that can while away the hours, conferring; with the flowers, consulting; with the rain. The second annual Scarecrows exhibit will be on display in Cheekwood's Botanical Garden from Sept. 27 through Nov. 9, and you're invited to participate. Cheekwood will provide the scarecrow's framework, and helpful hints for construction are provided on the registration form, which can be found at cheekwood.org. Individuals and small groups are encouraged to take part, and designs must be family-friendly. The registration deadline is Aug. 8, but space is limited, so the sooner, the better. I'd design one myself, if I only had a brain (and a shred of artistic talent).
