Take a stroll down the yellow-brick-road in Holland, Michigan. The Holland Oz Project began seven years ago with an idea to pay tribute to L. Frank Baum who vacationed in Holland on the shores of Lake Michigan in the late 1800’s. Learn how a community embraced this idea of honoring the classic story The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and how a single idea grew into the popular Oz Sculpture Garden today. Our guide Linda Hart is joined by Jamie Scott, the Deputy Director of Parks and Cemeteries for the City of Holland. He holds a degree in horticulture from Michigan State University with an emphasis in landscape design and has over 20 years’ experience in the green industry. Care to support this project? The fundraising campaign to personalize a brick closes Sept. 1, 2020.

Linda, I was able to visit Holland, MI and see the Oz Project last month. Both the living book and sculptures are exquisite. Thank you for this behind-the-scenes look!
I really liked the tour of the sculpture gardens
