Spend a year in Getty’s garden
Throughout 2023, the Grounds & Gardens team worked hard behind the scenes to create colorful, unique displays that would wow visitors through all four seasons. We hope you’ll be inspired by how the team made Getty’s Central Garden constantly grow, evolve, and bloom.

Celebrate soul
This holiday season, Getty is honoring the enduring legacy of the Johnson Publishing Company Archive. This vast collection includes 4.5 million prints and negatives that chronicle Black life since the 1940s. See some of the first images to emerge from the archive—five rare photos of the Jackson 5, Eartha Kitt, the Temptations, Stevie Wonder, and Aretha Franklin—and listen to a playlist of Christmas songs by these and other iconic artists.

Our year in review
In 2023 Getty unlocked a wealth of Aztec history and culture; leaned into preserving Black modernist architecture and Black historic places; shared its ancient Egyptian Book of the Dead for the first time; and found new ways to keep art safe as climate change escalates.
