MMAM Gardens

Purple flowers take up most of the photograph, a hint of a river and bluffs in the background

MMAM’s Seventh Gallery…

Sometimes we refer to the gardens as our seventh gallery, because the outdoor space surrounding the Museum building was very intentionally designed. MMAM is surrounded by 3.5 acres of gardens with more than 60,000 plants, shrubs, grasses, and trees.  Many of these plants are considered native to our region, and have become a fantastic home for wildlife. 

There is a short path that visitors can walk to enjoy the gardens and witness the many birds and  butterflies that flit about.  Individual plants are not marked in the gardens, but there is information available at the front desk if you are interested in a certain plant.  

We hope to see you wandering the gardens soon.
