PHILADELPHIA, PA.- Calder Gardens announced today that it will open to the public on September 21, 2025, following a celebratory week of special events.

In conjunction with the announcement, the institution has unveiled its new visual identity and website—caldergardens.org. This marks another step toward the inauguration of the widely anticipated cultural destination dedicated to cultivating reflection, curiosity, and human connection through the art of Alexander Calder, one of the most influential artists of the 20th century and a native Philadelphian.

With the launch of the new Calder Gardens website today, members of the public are now able to purchase memberships online—offering the benefit of reserving advance tickets—and subscribe to a mailing list for exclusive updates, event invitations and special offers.

Designed by Karlssonwilker, the new Calder Gardens logomark was rendered to emphasize the negative space between the two words in the institution’s name. The void suggests the vigor and tension of Calder’s art as well as a sense of welcome, telegraphing Calder Gardens’ mission to be a living, breathing space where art and environment are open to interpretation.

As an extension of this approach, the website has been conceived to present the institution’s unique proposition as a multilayered cultural space that visitors will experience in many ways. Featuring a simple but bold visual navigation, the site is immersive as well as informative. It will grow and evolve over time, like Calder Gardens itself, to include content that spotlights upcoming activities and programs.

Calder Gardens memberships start at $98 annually, offering unlimited free admission to both Calder Gardens and its operational partner, the Barnes Foundation, exclusive morning access for members, guest passes, discounts at the shop, and more. Tickets will go on sale to members at 10am on May 20. An initial batch of general admission tickets will be released on May 23 and further tickets will be released at a later date.

Calder Gardens ticket prices will be $18 for adults, $16 for seniors, $5 for Youth (13-18), and free for children 12 and under. Mailing list subscribers will receive priority access to ticketed events, behind-the-scenes content, and the latest news as Calder Gardens approaches its highly anticipated opening.
