Posted October 29, 20168 yr philadelphia magic gardens all about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philadelphia%27s_Magic_Gardens https://www.phillymagicgardens.org/about-us/ music -- since the magic gardens are way down on south street 8-) https://youtu.be/y8aFcR9IrCw you can’t sit down here, so two tips: -- now i don’t usually advocate this behavior, but umm, if anybody partakes of the herb, u might want to do that before you visit -- or even look at this thread for that matter :laugh: -- also, do not plan on visiting when it’s wet & rainy like we did, the tile is hella slippery! so this is philadelphia’s quirky magic gardens from the street -- enjoy! :mrgreen: yes it’s basically tile, tile everywhere -- and & then even more tile - lol! basement area (usually off limits, but they let us in as it was rainy) gallery -- certainly this place overwhelms other people’s stuff, so your work better be up for it outside garden other bldgs -- there is much more tilework all around the neighborhood area eyes gallery -- this was tilemeister isaiah zagar’s original art gallery, next to jim’s steaks and that’s all for the magic gardens -- in this world of constant corporate whitewashing it’s great to still have local, well supported, interesting outsider art oddities like this place -- i hope you can get a chance to visit sometime!
October 29, 20168 yr I love Magic Gardens. Some of the alleys around that area have some truly impressive mosaic work.
