Fodor's 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.

Cost: $10
Open: Tues.-Sat. 9:30-4:30, Sun. 11-4:30; open Memorial Day and Labor Day.

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