Magical Meanderings is a unique opportunity to experience the magic and grandeur of the Arboretum’s late season landscape while supporting the nation’s first public “museum of trees.” Come enjoy cocktails, hors d’œuvres, and dinner under the evening sky and meander among eminent trees with Arboretum experts.
You will witness the strides we are making, through our sesquicentennial campaign, to protect our plants amid the challenges of global change and to advance our historical commitment to promoting equity in the landscape.
