Join us in celebrating California Botanic Garden's opening of phase one of the Children's Woodland, a new interactive space designed to build connection between kids and nature!
The opening will be in conjunction with the opening of Joy in the Garden, a children's art exhibit to celebrate the children's garden.
There will be light refreshments and an art opening, then a walk to the site for the ribbon cutting.
Join CalBG in celebrating the grand opening of the new Children's Woodland! This shady oasis is the first space at the Garden that is dedicated solely to children and the joy of unstructured play in nature. Grand Opening activities will include: time in the Woodland, crafts, storytime, guided walks, the Joy in the Garden Youth Art Exhibit, and more.
Activities will take place between 10 AM and 3 PM on Friday, April 10 and Saturday, April 11.
