The Dixon Gallery & Gardens is a Memphis-based institution that combines a fine art museum with a public garden, offering a program mix that includes rotating exhibitions and a curated permanent collection. Its campus spans seventeen acres and features formal garden spaces alongside woodland areas and cutting gardens, providing both indoor art experiences and outdoor horticultural displays. The organization serves visitors seeking exposure to French and American Impressionist paintings, as well as German and English porcelain, and it collaborates with other cultural entities through partnerships and juried events. Founded in 1976 by Hugo and Margaret Dixon, the museum is accredited by the American Association of Museums and participates in professional networks within the museum and public garden fields. In addition to presenting eight to ten exhibitions annually, the Dixon engages a broad audience with programs that span art and horticulture, supported by its location in Memphis, Tennessee. A recent development includes involvement in regional art events, such as hosting events connected to the Illinois Watercolor Society National Exhibition at The Next Picture Show.
