A Fresh Look: Hirshhorn Sculpture Garden Reopens After Three-Year Transformation
WASHINGTON (7News) — The Hirshhorn Museum’s iconic Sculpture Garden has officially reopened after a three-year revitalization, welcoming visitors back to a transformed 1.3-acre space on the National Mall. The reimagined garden now features nearly 60 sculptures, expanded gathering areas, a larger reflecting pool, and 30,000 new plants and trees. Designed by acclaimed artist and architect Hiroshi Sugimoto, the renovation blends the garden’s historic character with exciting new additions, including a dedicated space for large-scale contemporary works by living artists. With a wider, more welcoming entrance and new opportunities for art, performances, and community events, the revitalized Sculpture Garden invites visitors to experience modern and contemporary art in an entirely new way.
