Japanese-style Garden Month

Hillwood’s Japanese-style garden, designed by Shogo Myaida, is an artful blend of Japanese and American garden traditions. A reflection of Marjorie Post’s love of collecting decorative objects, this non-traditional Japanese garden is perfectly integrated into the space and personality of Hillwood.

Celebrate the magic of this garden this month through specialty tours, floral workshops, and festive performances.
