Whimsical Garden Gates Exhibition
May 19 – September 30, 2012
During our 2012 season, we will utilize our beautiful 100 acres of display gardens to showcase the work of contemporary regional artists. We will feature a outdoor exhibition of a powerful symbol of American culture and a significant garden design element – the garden gate.
We invited regional artists to create a fanciful but working garden gate to be exhibited at Heritage opening in mid-May. These original works of art will be featured throughout the grounds.
