The Tiger Glen Garden is a contemplation garden built in the new wing of the Johnson Museum of Art. It is inspired by a Chinese parable, called the Three Laughers of the Tiger Glen, in which three men overcome their sectarian differences to find a unity of friendship. The garden was designed in an austere style called karesansui in Japanese in which an image of nature is created with an arrangement of stones.

The Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art is located on the campus of Cornell University in Ithaca, New York. It is well known for its distinctive concrete façade, designed by I. M. Pei in 1973. The new wing, within which the Tiger Glen Garden was built, was designed by Pei Cobb Freed & Partners and completed in 2011. The garden project was made possible through the generous patronage of Rebecca Q. and James C. Morgan.
