Sign Up Now for Free Ticket to Secret Garden Tours

For over a quarter of a century, our Secret Garden Tour has provided more than 1.25 million dollars in support of art education in our public schools. An integral part of our great success has been the dedication and commitment of our wonderful, loyal volunteers.

The 2011 FALL tour "On & Off the Avenue and The Drive" will take place on Friday, Sept 9, Saturday, Sept 10 and Sunday, Sept 11, from 10:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. each of the three days.

Volunteers work in shifts, acting as ticket-takers, hosts and guides, providing general information to our visitors. In appreciation, you will receive a free ticket to tour all of the gardens. Shifts are from 10 to 1:30 AND 1:30 to 5:00 on each of the THREE days.
