Annmarie Garden comes into bloom at Artfest this weekend

When Stacey Hann-Ruff was hired in 2003, the 30-acre garden was more garden than art. Since its creation in 1992, a pathway had been laid through the woods, and a handful of intriguing sculptures raised. Beyond that was the signature ceramic gate that still stands, alerting visitors that something amazing is here, and one 800-square-foot building for art shows and classes.
