Toledo Botanical Garden (formerly the Crosby Gardens and George P. Crosby Park) is a botanical gardeninToledo, Ohio, owned and managed by Metroparks Toledo.[1]
Originally comprising 20 acres (8.1 ha) donated by George P. Crosby to the City of Toledo, the garden now encompasses 60 acres (24 ha).[4][1] Notable events include the Crosby Festival of the Arts, held in late June; and Heralding the Holidays, a seasonal celebration showcasing the numerous resident artistic guilds.
Metroparks Toledo began assisting operations in 2006 after the city ceased its funding of the garden.[5] Transfer of the park to Metroparks Toledo was formally transferred in 2019.[6]
In 2002 a collection of 2,300 Lithophanes that had been donated to the city of Toledo were used to establish a museum at the Toledo Botanical Gardens.[7] The museum closed at the end of October 2019.[8] The city agreed to relocate the museum by September 2020.[9] As of January 2020, the museum had not confirmed future plans, beyond attempting to keep the collection in the city of Toledo.[10]
