Sunnylands Photo Exhibit
RANCHO MIRAGE (CNS) – Sunnylands Center and Gardens will open a photography exhibit next week highlighting the estate’s curated trees.
The exhibit, “Curating Canopy: Trees at Sunnylands,” will run Sept. 10 through June 6, 2027, at 37977 Bob Hope Drive. Admission is free from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Wednesday through Sunday.
“This exhibition invites you to see trees as more than landscape features. Here, they are art — each with its own sculptural form and seasonal expression,” Gardens Director Michaeleen Gallagher said in a statement. “They are gifts — given by friends, by past caretakers, by those who envisioned a future of shade, growth and beauty.”
The trees date back to the mid-1960s, when Sunnylands founders Walter and Leonore Annenberg and their landscape architects transformed the 200-acre site from desert into lush gardens, organizers said.
Photographer David Loftus captured species such as Jacaranda, Virginia Live Oak and Crepe Myrtle in floor-to-ceiling images featured in the exhibit.
