Engage

Welcome!

Sunnylands Center & Gardens is an active community center where we share the history of Walter and Leonore Annenberg and continue their legacy of education in programs that intertwine art, nature, and culture. Through on-site, community, and virtual programs, we provide multiple avenues for engagement.

Join us for our Family Days or workshops. Listen to one of our interview projects, engage in an evening, salon-style gathering, or take a tour. You can also practice mindfulness on a walk through our labyrinth, or exercise during one of our Health & Wellness programs. Or just show up and stroll the gardens. For information on ADA accommodations at the Center & Gardens and on tours, please see here.

We look forward to your visit!
