Description

Philadelphia's Magic Gardens (PMG) is a folk art environment, gallery space and nonprofit organization that showcases the work of mosaicist Isaiah Zagar. Located at the site of Zagar's largest public mosaic installation on South Street (between 10th and 11th streets), the Magic Gardens includes a fully mosaiced indoor gallery and a massive outdoor labyrinthine mosaic sculpture. The installation, primarily consisting of found objects and contributions from the community, covers half a city block with myriad tile, texture and color. A walk through the labyrinth will reveal sculptures from Latin America and Asia, bicycle wheels from local South Street shop Via Bicycles, Zagar's hand-made tiles and mirrors of every shape and size. Your family membership includes unlimited general admission to PMG during regular operating hours for 3-5 family members, 2 guest passes, 2 vouchers for a regular PMG tour on weekends at 12 p.m. and 4 p.m., as well as 10% off any in-store purchase of gift shop merchandise and Isaiah Zagar's artworks up to $550 value. As a Friends Select supporter, in addition to all the perks of your family membership, you will enjoy a private guided tour for 8, as well as a hands-on creative experience.
