The Key West Tropical Forest & Botanical Garden 12th Annual ART in the GARDEN 2022 | April 25-July 30, 2022

Meander over Garden boardwalks and down pathways through dappled shade cast by fresh greenscape, colorful blossoms and winged creatures of nature and spot … sculpture! Nature has been benign in recent months with Spring bringing renewal and the return of  ART in the GARDEN with artistic expressions emphasizing harmony with nature. These works feature earth-friendly themes, including recycled and natural materials. Sculptures by local artists accent the natural beauty of the conservation site on Stock Island.

Sculpture creations by local artists are on display from April through July. The public is welcome daily from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Visitors to the Garden will have an opportunity to cast their votes for Best in Show.

Masks are welcome; social distancing protocols remain in place and there are no public restrooms.
