Fellowships

In a continuing effort to build a comprehensive record of historic gardens in the Commonwealth of Virginia, the Garden Club of Virginia offers fellowship programs for landscape architecture students working towards a MLA or equivalent program. Fellows work with professional landscape architect William D. Rieley of Rieley and Associates in Charlottesville, Virginia.

The William D. Rieley Fellowship supports the documentation of a garden not held in private ownership.

The Rudy J. Favretti Fellowship supports the documentation of historic gardens in private hands. The Favretti Fellowship was named in honor of the Garden Club of Virginia's former landscape architect, Rudy J. Favretti, FASLA, in appreciation for his distinguished contributions to historic landscape scholarship, restoration, and education.
