Cheekwood Botanical Garden and Museum of Art Review

Thirty acres of gardens at the Cheekwood Botanical Garden and Museum of Art showcase annuals, perennials, and seasonal wildflowers. The museum is in a carefully restored neo-Georgian mansion. The permanent exhibition shows American art to 1945, while the "Temporary Contemporary" gallery presents local and national artists. A collection of Fabergé pieces—including three Imperial Easter Eggs—from the Matilda Geddings Gray Foundation will be displayed at Cheekwood for the next several years.

    A must-see for anyone visiting Nashville. The grounds are spectacular, the art is fabulous and they have great programs for kids!
