Marin Art and Garden Center is a non-profit 11-acre public garden where the community comes to celebrate and be inspired by conservation. The Center is open to everybody in the community every day of the year, from sunup to sundown. Visitors come to wander and wonder - at the gardens, art, events, and historical registry of mid-century modern buildings. They come to be inspired, educated, entertained, or just be.
