Soaring statues. Sweeping prairies.
Nature’s works of art and human creations sit side-by-side on the campus of Glenstone Museum in Potomac, Maryland.

**Glenstone’s public tour:** One hour. About half a mile of walking.
A slow stroll with tour guides who will answer questions about the native plants, landscape architecture and artwork.

**Add-on, 30-minute walking loop:**
After the guided nature walk, the Outdoor Afro crew will make a special detour to go see a 24-foot, bronze sculpture by African American artist, Simone Leigh. Her work explores the “unstoppable forward movement of Black women.”
