“When my daughter Frankie was a toddler on a ventilator in 2000, she was isolated at home with a nurse, and there was no medically-safe place for her to go to make friends and learn about the world. We made Frankie’s World into the kind of place she would have loved.”
– Conny Lockwood, Board President

Philadelphia Magic Gardens
“I use art like a spider my web, lure people and change their worldview, feelings, dreams” Isaiah Zagar
On one of the streets of Philadelphia -South Street, there is a rather unusual house,
completely covered with a mosaic of pieces of glass and broken tiles, and the courtyard of the house is a real labyrinth, with arched entrances, grottoes, stairs and terraces.
The feelings of visitors are different – surprise, admiration, shock, and some may have rejection, hostility. But let’s take a walk and see what’s there…
This mosaic complex, the so-called “Magic Gardens”, was created by the visionary American artist Isaiah Zagar. Isaiah Zagar was born at 1939 in Brooklyn, New York, and from childhood he was fond of creativity, and often painted everything that came to hand, whether it was a table, a refrigerator or even a ceiling. After high school, he entered an art college and received a bachelor’s degree in painting and graphics in 1960.
Even in his youth, the artist was fond of the so-called outsider art, naive art and primitivism. Isaiah traveled a lot, lived in Peru, but eventually returned to America and settled in Philadelphia. Critics have not always favorably treated the work of Isaiah Zagara, as well as all marginal or outsider art. Describing his work, the artist often joked: “Not a single museum was ready to show my works, why did I put them on public display myself.
”
Finally, in 1994, Isaiah Zagar took possession of several buildings and their yard, and began working on the most important project of his life. It took the artist 14 years to turn his fantastic idea into reality.
While working on “Magic Gardens”, the master literally fenced himself off from the outside world. At the very beginning of the work, he designed a massive fence to protect his offspring from unnecessary debris and robbers. Then he began to create a unique landscape of the labyrinth garden: he dug grottoes, built additional sheds, dug tunnels, and constructed multi-layered walls. When the preparatory work was completed, the artist began to cover the entire space with mosaics, both outside and inside the building.
In the end, the master did not leave a single empty space. Mosaic, sculpture, painting, words laid out from pieces, funny figurines, homemade furniture, stairs and arches – all this covers the internal galleries and labyrinth.
Almost everywhere: on the ceiling, underfoot, on the walls, everything sparkles, shimmers in different colors. Getting into this mysterious world, one gets the feeling that one is inside a richly inlaid box.
In 2008 the master finished his masterpiece. So the small mosaic world of Isaiah Zagara was born.
For work, the master used almost everything that came to hand. It could be old ceramic dishes, various kitchen utensils, broken glass, bottoms from colored bottles, beautiful decorative Chinese dishes, various crafts, and even objects completely unsuitable for mosaics.
A rather unusual item is a chandelier made from bicycle parts, old tools, and other rusty debris.
Sometimes images are accompanied by various statements, also made of stone or ceramics. One of these sayings reads: “I built this sanctuary to be inhabited by my ideas and my fantasies.”
Excursions, performances, holidays are held in the museum.
