Amazing Art History Tour! - Amazing! I had no idea Siah Armajani was an anarchist. Very cool to hear Claes Oldenberg’s artist’s statement too. I feel like this added a whole new layer to the park. We never would have known most of that just walking through the park.

Great way to learn the stories behind the sculptures! - I’ve been to the sculpture garden many times, but never knew much about the works or the artists. This tour was a great way to learn some of the stories behind the sculptures. Easy to follow, with good content. Definitely recommended.

Don’t purchase! ChatGPT this! - Not worth the money! I followed the link after I made my purchase but it only contacted me to a 3 minutes preview. Not worth the money at all! Just walk through the garden and read the signs.
