I visited Bonnet House on the last morning of my vacation. There was an AWESOME Zimbabwean sculpture traveling exhibit when I went. We got to speak to some of the sculptors which was so cool. The gardens were very beautiful and I loved that there were labels and plaques for us to learn more about the ecosystem and preservation efforts. The house itself was stunning - so many gorgeous colors and art decorating the entire building! There were also individuals posted in the rooms to share more about the history and significance of the artifacts. I appreciated this as we could engage as much or as little as we wanted and it felt more personable! Absolutely worth a visit if you are in the area. Admission prices were very reasonable! We stayed about 3 hours but could have enjoyed it for longer.
