An engaging, moving, and inspiring memoir, The Bee and the Acorn traces the journey of Wallace and her family to the historic Georgia coastal town of Savannah, where they set about creating a new university for the arts. The tiny college would be a radically different kind of institution, buzzing with progressive ideas about what education could be and what it should do for students. Nearly 40 years later, SCAD has become one of the largest and most highly regarded arts universities in the world.

Hope, Beauty, Bravery. Worth It!
Revisado: 11-30-23
I went on the SCAD visitor tour when I was in Savannah and found myself tearing up at Paula’s vision and story. It reminded me of my own desires for something more beautiful and my own loss of an educational experience that was very much not about me. Her story, the story of SCAD is so uplifting and restorative of hope that those of us who see the world differently can create and be successful at something that follows our heart. It’s an easy listen. Only drawbacks are there’s a bit of narrator splicing that doesn’t match previous sections and some overstating of facts / numbers about SCAD towards the end but doesn’t detract too much. Highly recommend overall! I cannot wait to go back to Savannah to explore all the museums and events she talks about in the book!
