Sherman Library & Gardens is a nonprofit organization that has been deeply rooted in the community for over half of a century, serving the community as a sanctuary and education beacon for history and beauty.
Founded in 1966 by Arnold Haskell, and named for his friend and mentor, Moses Hazeltine Sherman, this iconic institution serves as a guardian of regional history and artifacts, a living library of plants both native and exotic, and a conservator of artistic works influenced by and produced in the Pacific Southwest.
Today, Sherman Library & Gardens is a monument to Haskell’s dream of an educational and cultural center including a premier botanical garden and outstanding research library. Sherman Library & Gardens was recently recognized by the Newport Beach City Council with a proclamation naming Sherman Library & Gardens as the “Cultural Hub” of Corona del Mar.
Sherman Library & Gardens is located at 2647 E. Coast Hwy. in Corona del Mar.
