Nice walk and play area for little kids. The recycled art center was very nice for all ages. Sculptures were ok. Can become very humid outside. Some art work was still being installed inside, so the interior wasn't very interesting, except for the recycled art studio.

The lights at the holidays are beautiful and they have a scavenger hunt to keep the kids engaged. The fairy and gnome houses in the spring and summer are adorable. Mixing art and nature is a great idea.

We were impressed with most ofvthe displays here. Start off inside the art museum, then go over to the butterfly exhibit. We walked the path around starting on the left. most of the sculptures are beautiful and the displays outside in the wooded area keep the area cool but if you stop too long the mosquitos will remind you to keep moving.

The Fairy and Gnome' s house are scattered about and make for a neat scavenger hunt. Be sure and pick up a map at the entrance, the staff was very helpful, everyone from the cashier at the entrance to the cleaning crew, they were all polite to my wife, I appreciate that.

A beautiful place. During the Fairy gnome festival, the lines were Very long. There wasn't a Event map. A map for the Fairy gnome house was available but no way
to find the individual activity's scattered around the festival.

We visited with our 20 month old for the Christmas Lights and it was spectacular! We didn't bring a stroller because she walked through most of the loop or we carried her. Live jazz trio indoors and did some dancing and holiday pop up shops available where we bought some bracelets. Will return in spring for art.

As an artist myself, I had wonderful time observing a variety of artistic talent of all genres.
Anne Marie Gardens had a very peaceful, relaxing ambiance which allowed me to fulling take in, and appreciate every artist who had the courage to show the world what their souls are made of. The actual garden was very serene, paths within the trees, revealing here and there beautiful sculptures. I would go for a return visit, place my own art on display there, and bring the family to enjoy. Did I mention they have a free art lab, fully equipped to express your own artistic wanderings for those of all ages.

Nice and relaxing place to go and walk. The Garden in lights show in December is always enjoyable. It gets a little crowded at that time of year. Still worth going. They offer hot chocolate and a varity of snacks at the concession stand. The hot chocolate is always nice and warm after a brisk walk under the lights.

Pretty small compared to some sculpture gardens in large cities. However, for being in Southern Maryland this is a great way to spend an afternoon. The garden has nice paths to walk on and see all the sculptures. There are a ton of kids activities as well.

I really enjoyed my visit at the AnnMarie Sculpture Garden and Arts Center. It is very dogfriendly. I went inside the building with my little dog to pay my admission. The restrooms are right next to the receptionist desk, and the lady was so friendly and helpful. It was a warm welcome. I explored the garden first. The walk through the garden was relaxing and I love the large scale sculptures, and there were some small individual art pieces displayed around the garden. There was a 2 level house that reminded me of a tree house. It is a very fun garden to visit, and if you have kids, they will probably enjoy it, too. Don't forget to bring your dog(s). After walking around the garden, I went back to the museum with my little dog. With her in my arms, I explored the arts center on the 2nd floor. It has some interesting artwork. The day I visited, they had some crafts vendors in the garden. It was a treat to get to shop around, too. I would return to this garden again.

Great place for young children. They enjoy finding and exploring the fairy houses. A nice collection of outdoor sculptures from the Hirshhorn collection. A playground of miniature structures for the kids to play in along with other scalable structures. It can be a bit of a drive depending on where you live. The kids can get restless.

I brought my 3 year old son here and he absolutly loved it. He had fun running around and exploring. My wife and I also enjoyed the various interactive sculptures. Defently recomend for anyone with kids looking to expand there mind.

Mud Day all day!!!!!!!! Every year, family oriented event and a genuinely unique place. It's a little bit of drive from my city but it's nothing compared to the experience, then hop on down to Calvert cliffs to finish off a great day

Out of the way, quiet, pleasant, no large crowds. Some nice artwork, okay sculpture. A little more oriented toward children than I expected. Reasonably cheap.

On a return trip, the elevator was broken. They confirmed that it was broken, but apparenently had no capacity to fix it. At least they gave us a refund.

I've only ever been here for the light show around Christmas and this was the first time I've been in years. I love the changes they made. The last time I was here was maybe 17 years ago and it was something you drove through, which had its perks (climate controlled environment), but ultimately forced you to go a certain speed so that you didn't hold up the people behind you.

Now that you walk through it, you can take your time and really enjoy it. Just dress for the weather and bring some hot cocoa! There are lots of themes and it's fun picking them out. My 4 year old had a blast picking out Pokemon and marvel characters and chasing the lights on the ground. I think the coolest part was the white screens with the three colored lights and the colored shadows they produce!

The garden is an excellent family outing. The design is user friendly and alit if fun. I went with my teenage grandaughters and college student grandson, it was awesome and a precious memory, not expensive, staff very helpful and warm. The hot chocolate is very good, but it could have been hotter.
