Magic Gardens Studio Tour

$25 per person

In 2007 at the age of 68 Isaiah Zagar began work on what would become his largest art environment, the Magic Gardens Studio at 1002 Watkins Street in South Philadelphia. The 10,000 square foot warehouse is completely covered with mosaics and is three times larger than his previous project at the Magic Gardens Museum. The space was recently gifted to the nonprofit Philadelphia’s Magic Gardens (PMG) by Isaiah and his wife Julia and opened to the public in 2024.

A knowledgeable educator will lead a 60 minute tour of the first floor of the studio followed by time to look closely and explore on your own. Learn about the artist, his influences, and the many collaborations that made the Magic Gardens Studio possible. See where tiles were created and materials amassed for Isaiah’s mosaics. Discover how the nonprofit PMG is preserving the space and still actively working in the Studio.
