TALK AND SENSORY TOUR Art and Science Mingle in Medieval Gardens of al-Andalus

Explore the rich intersection of art, science, and nature in the medieval Muslim gardens of al-Andalus. This engaging program delves into how landscape, architecture, and water worked together to create spaces that were both sustainable and beautiful. Pollen studies show how these gardens reflected a deep understanding of ecology and design. Following the presentation, enjoy a guided stroll through McGovern Centennial Gardens with Hermann Park Conservancy staff to see how the same timeless principles continue to shape modern landscapes today.
