“Whether you are a music, art or nature lover, there is something for everyone at the Gardens,” said Margaret Horgan, Managing Director for the Ann Norton Sculpture Gardens. “And what better way to celebrate and honor Black History Month than with Jazz and Gospel favorites by award-winning musicians in an outdoor tropical oasis.”
