In celebration of World Bee Day on May 20, the Savannah College of Art and Design involved the business community with the “Bee Found” initiative.

This event involved hiding student and alumni-created, 3D-printed golden bees throughout various SCAD facilities and local businesses in Savannah, including the Chamber/Visit Savannah office at 101 East Bay. Creating a “Buzz” around town, the “Bee Found” initiative was a treasure hunt in which students and community members, including the Chambers’ own Tripp Flowers and Visit Savannah’s Ginger McCoy, successfully found two hidden bees.

The winner attended The Hive Garden on World Bee Day to claim prizes, including VIP tickets to SCAD festivals and shows, gift certificates to the Gryphon Tea Room, a professional photoshoot on the SCAD Backlot, and exclusive alumni merchandise. This fun and educational event highlighted the importance of bees in our ecosystem and showed the creativity and community engagement that SCAD is world-renowned for.
