This event is designed to celebrate the Arboretum’s work: a free and open public park in the City of Boston, an academic “museum of trees,” a conservation and research institution, and a place of outdoor education for all people. The event will be hosted in the Arnold Arboretum’s Explorers Garden, where we care for plants from around the world, exemplifying our global collaboration and conservation work. Guests will engage with Arboretum experts while enjoying cocktails and passed food in the living collections, followed by music and dancing under a tent. — Join us at the Arnold Arboretum as we debut a captivating new event: Afterglow at the Arnold!
