Artist
I am relatively new to the Sherman Library & Garden’s experience. I would drive past and wonder what was behind the walls. I am glad to be getting to know the organization, the staff and volunteers a little better. It’s a positive, nurturing organization that deserves everyone’s support. It’s a real gem in the crown of Corona del Mar and for the Southern California community to enjoy.

My wife & I moved to Southern California in 1972 from Texas and we would visit Sherman L & G as part of our “beach town” explorations. After our sons were born, we would take them to the Garden to see the Koi fish, turtles and beautiful plants.
