Sculpture Garden Tours 

Stroll through our outdoor Sculpture Garden, home to more than 20 modern and contemporary sculptures. On this engaging tour, get a new perspective on these monumental sculptures, the stories behind them, and their relationship to the landscape setting. 

Taking place Friday through Sunday, our one-hour tours meet in front of the Pavilion Café located on the west side of the fountain.

Sculpture Garden tours may be canceled due to excessive heat or rain. Tours take place seasonally, from April through the second weekend in June and September through the second weekend in November.

Sign-language interpreters and guides for visitors who are blind or have low vision are available for programs. Please call (202) 737-4215 or email [email protected] three weeks in advance for an appointment. Learn more about accessibility
