Origami In The Garden - Sculpture Garden Featuring Florigami
2024 is Origami in the Garden’s 10th Anniversary traveling the nation. This season the largest exhibit is home in New Mexico!
We are so excited for the Opening of Origami In The Garden - Sculpture Garden 2024 season with the biggest, boldest, brightest traveling exhibition to date - FLORIGAMI! The Cerrillos, NM sculpture garden and welcome gallery will be open Mon-Fri 9am-2pm. We hope that you will have the opportunity to visit the gardens for a very unique experience where you can explore, discover, and engage all of your senses!
FLORIGMI is the newest traveling exhibition features 18 installations of nearly 70 museum-caliber sculptures inspired by origami – the centuries-old Japanese art of folding paper – created by Santa Fe artists Jennifer and Kevin Box in their largest outdoor display to date. Monumental sculptures, inspired from paper are now either fabricated or cast into metal pieces -- of flying birds, emerging butterflies, blooming flowers, grazing deer and other flora and fauna themes.
Walking the garden usually takes about 40 mins, then visitors can experience an interior “Inside Out” paper folding and unfolding exhibit in the Gallery Gift Shop. When on this private property, visitors are invited to take photos, use the parasols, grab a map and always stay on the paths. ONLY well behaved dogs on leashes are allowed. There is NO climbing on sculptures or rocks.
Consider wearing comfy shoes and clothes, a hat, SPF and have a water bottle. There is portable bathroom outside, water and lots of opportunity to experience some JOY! Plan your visit today!
