A WALK THROUGH THE VIRGINIA ROBINSON ESTATE

In 1977, the Virginia Robinson Estate and Gardens was gifted to ALL of us — the residents of Los Angeles County. Mrs. Robinson gave this property for EVERYONE whose spirit finds fulfillment in the Gardens, regardless of skill level, gender, ethnicity, or age. As the stewards — the Friends — we feel a deep responsibility to preserve the estate with the utmost integrity and commitment for all future generations.

We are pleased to present the first in a series of short videos, produced by Joan Selwyn, founder of the Friends, and hosted by Superintendent Timothy Lindsay, documenting the history and features of the Virginia Robinson Gardens. It is especially in this time of COVID-19 that we feel a greater need to connect with you and to share the wonders of this historical estate. Enjoy a glimpse into a storied past that gave rise to the city we now know as Beverly Hills.
