One of my dear friends posted about this cool exhibit at a Botanic Gardens that I never even knew about! So - win win! A fun exhibit and a new spot! This lovely spot was South Coast Botanic Gardens in Palos Verdes. This is much closer than a few other gardens we like to check out in the LA area. They had an exhibit by this artist - Thomas Dambo called Trolls - Save the Humans. He's a recycle artists that makes these giant trolls out of trash.
It was a lovely day at the gardens for sure and the trolls were so cool! It's very hilly and quite large, so be prepared to trek. We do certainly plan to come back and see other events and check the gardens out more but today was all about the trolls. They had 6 of them spread throughout the gardens and you followed the birdhouses to get to them.
