While the rest of her classmates were making pastries in cooking
classes, Mary Nohl was making art--anything she fancied out of anything
she could find. Inspiration struck Mary even when she wasn't looking for
it. Mary used common objects to make uncommon art. And one day, her
garden was a gallery.
Mary Nohl passed away in 2001 at the age of eighty-seven. Her famous
garden gallery is located in the front yard of her Fox Point, Wisconsin,
home to this day.
