“Oh the things you'll see”
The Dr. Seuss National Memorial Sculpture Garden is now open at the Springfield Museums in Springfield, Massachusetts, the city where Theodor Seuss Geisel was born and which appears to have inspired much of his work.Sculptor Lark Grey Dimond-Cates, who is also Geisel's step-daughter, created the endearing bronze sculptures of Dr. Seuss and his most beloved characters for the Springfield Library & Museums Association, located in the heart of this city which is on the Connecticut River in Western Massachusetts.
Very cute. A nice little place to stop and stretch your legs while roadtripping! This is actually a whole block campus with 2 art museums, the Springfield Science Museum, the Springfield History Museum, Springfield History Library & Archives and a museum store with lots of grinchy gifts and every Dr. Seuss book you can think of and plenty of ones you've never heard of! They have a cute little cafe too. We found a metered parking space on the street, but I think you can park out front too.
This place is adorable!
Very small outdoor park with all your favorite Dr Seuss characters....the Lorax, grinch, Horton, thing 1 & 2 and more!
If you're in the area it's definitely worth the stop!
Be aware that's it's very small, there are only a few statues and a very cool twig house. There are also museums to visit and a small caffe with restrooms.
