Tour Overview
Nestled in garden collections, along walkways and at the Huakaiwaka Visitor Centre (itself a work of art) you will encounter the Auckland Botanic Gardens permanent collection of artworks and sculpture.
This growing collection is a legacy of past sculpture exhibitions, of generous benefactors and the vision of garden creators who have incorporated art work into their horticultural work.
Each piece has a story and a connection to their garden surroundings.
