Summer is just around the corner, and we’re excited to welcome young learners back to 577 for a season of creativity, exploration, and hands-on discovery.

As 2025 winds down, the gardens and grounds at 577 will be closed for a few days giving our staff and volunteers a well-deserved hot cocoa break. Other than the six days indicated, we’ll be here for you every day between 9am to 5pm. Bundle up and come on in!
At 577, we often look to the rhythms of nature to guide us—and 2025 has been a true season of growth. While the gardens may rest during fall and winter, your support has ensured that 577’s creative, caring community continues to bloom all year long.
What began as a simple creative exchange has grown into a worldwide art movement. Artist Trading Cards invite artists and makers to experiment freely, repurpose materials, and share their creativity with others—proof that even the smallest works of art can build meaningful connections.
