(CAPE MAY, NJ) -- Cape May MAC (Museums+Arts+Culture) has announced its first tour since March, The Spring Celebration Garden Tour, on Saturday, June 13 (rain date June 14) from 1:00pm to 4:00pm. Cape May MAC cancelled all public events after the state shutdown in March due to the COVID-19 virus; this is the first Cape May MAC tour since then, and a wonderful celebration of spring, beauty and hope!
Here is your invitation to step past the frontage and explore the private plants and blooms of some of the Cape May area’s most dedicated gardeners. See their private landscape designs and take home ideas for your own gardens. Smell and see what’s blooming and flourishing in several different seashore locations dominated by sunlight, ocean breezes, sand and salt, but each uniquely situated. Physick Estate gardens are included!
Admission is $20. Maps will be available the day of the tour outside on the grounds of the Physick Estate, 1048 Washington Street. Tickets are limited to help maintain social distance. Special note: We ask that ticket holders bring and wear their own masks as this is a ticketed event at private homes. Masks will be provided on request. Tickets will be refunded and admission denied to ticket holders who, for whatever reason, decline to or cannot wear a mask. Refunds will be handled by phone or email.
On 5/19/20, the City of Cape May, on behalf of Cape May MAC, received confirmation from Governor Murphy’s Office that the Spring Celebration Garden Tour is a permissible activity at this time, citing the “Community Garden” Section of the Governor’s Executive Order (EO) #147.
