Yume Japanese Gardens is the living expression of an ancient Japanese heritage. Covering three-quarters of an acre in central Tucson, Arizona, it comprises six traditional visions of landscape. In each, nature is balanced by the human hand to render the spare elegance and subtle spirit of an authentic Japanese garden. Yume maintains a museum with permanent and temporary exhibits of beautiful Japanese art and handicrafts, a gift shop with objects imported from Japan and absorbing books about its people and folkways, and an art gallery in which photography, paintings, ceramics, and sculpture alternate to acquaint you with rich layers of Japanese spirit and custom. Throughout the year, we present classes and workshops in Japanese calligraphy, flower arranging, and other popular arts. We also hold tea ceremonies, traditional seasonal festivals, and performances of treasured Japanese music, song, plays, and dance.Yume Japanese Gardens is the living expression of an ancient Japanese heritage.
