Discover how the beloved Dr. Seuss National Memorial Sculpture Garden came to life in this behind-the-scenes look at the creative process of artist Lark Grey Dimond-Cates, Dr. Seuss’s stepdaughter and the garden’s creator.

Explore bronze maquettes and learn how early designs were transformed into the larger-than-life sculptures that celebrate Theodor Geisel’s imagination and legacy. The display highlights the many stages of creating the garden, including the full-size sculpture of Geisel himself—with hands crafted from casts of his own artistic hands.
