Details:
See the history of Descanso Gardens through the eyes of the LA’s Garden exhibition curator Rosten Woo as he conducts tours on July 18th from 11am–12pm and 1pm–2pm.

The exhibition highlights the Gardens’ iconic botanical collections and the diverse individuals—from Japanese American nurserymen to visionary volunteers—who preserved this landscape for the public.
Included in the price of admission or membership, no event registration required.
