Dixon Gallery & Gardens

Great way to spend an hour or so! There seemed to be 3 major art exhibits available in early June. Portraits, pewter objects, and Impressionist art. I wasn't a big fan of portraits or pewter, but the rest of the paintings were lovely. The odd part was that the oil paintings were in areas with plenty of reflective light. Outside, there was an athletic event going on that we didn't find but could hear through the trees. Gorgeous gardens with trellis, plenty of chairs with matching tables and good walking others. A greenhouse was near the unique fountain. I didn't visit the gift shop or coffee shop. BoA, MOU participant

Beautiful setting. Gardens are so serene. Staff was very friendly. Cafe was worth a stop too! Scavenger hunt and magnifying glasses kept it interactive enough for my 5 year old, although the museum won't be his favorite spot to go. However he loved the gardens and the cupcake at the cafe!

If you like woodland gardens as much as I do you will love this place. It has really inspired me to beef up my own woodland garden. Many trees, shrubs, perrenials, and vines are presented here.

Absolutely gorgeous in the summer! My cousin had her wedding and reception here and it was the best wedding I've been to. The gardens are amazing and the green house just for aromatic plants was my favorite thing I've ever seen as a horticulturist. The few staff I talked to were nice and accommodating. They have a small cafe if you are stranded and need nourishment.

As always, beautiful and amazing gardens- don't miss out on Food Truck Fridays to eat some tasty food while visiting the flowers!
