Commemorative Tile Program
"Garden Amigo" Commemorative Tile Program
By joining our “Garden Amigo” Tile Program, you are doing two very special things: dedicating a personal message to your loved ones or that meaningful place or experience in your life AND also supporting the work of the Vallarta Botanical Garden to protect the biodiversity of Puerto Vallarta for future generations.
Your participation in our “Garden Amigo Tile Program” is most greatly appreciated. Thank you for making a difference!
You have the option to buy 2 sizes of tile:
- A Small Tile measuring 30cm wide x 15cm tall (approx. 12 inches x 6 inches)
- A Regular Tile measuring 30cm x 30cm (approx. 12 inches x 12 inches).
You can also buy two or more tiles and combine them to make a bigger design if you choose. Get in touch and we’ll create something beautiful together.
Please note:
On your tile(s), you can have text and/or an image of your choice. Our artists will do their very best to paint your image and/or text.
For any questions, or to submit your text and/or image, please contact us at tile@vbgardens.org
