Art in the Gardens

The 32nd annual Art in the Gardens at Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens will take place on Saturday, August 2 and Sunday, August 3. Join us in a celebration of creative expression, gorgeous gardens, wine tasting, music, and food. This year’s event will include more than 50 artists, dramatic summertime blooms, as well as entertainment by Circus Mecca and the Sonoma County Pomo Dancers. Enjoy performances by talented Mendo Coast musicians, including The Real Sarahs, Mama Grows Funk, Moon Rabbit, and The Runabout. Food, craft brews, and wine will be available for purchase. While the Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens is typically pet-friendly, the growing popularity and large crowds at Art in the Gardens make it unsuitable for pets, so we kindly ask that you leave them at home or arrange for doggy daycare—dogs are not allowed at this event, with the exception of service animals.
