Garden Expressions 2011

Thank you for attending and making this year's event a success.
Check back for next year's dates.


Regional Artists Showing and Selling Their Work

The Garden will be buzzing with selected regional artists of all kinds—sculptors, painters, glassartists, potters, gourd artists, fiber artists, and more—creating and selling their work, much of it inspired by nature.

Jame Hubbell

To help celebrate this wonderful dynamic between art and nature we are honoring James Hubbell for his amazing contribution to the world of art. Please join us on Sunday, August 21, at 1:30 pm in the Ecke Building for his presentation, “Gardens—the bridge between the Wild and the Order.”

Everyone is invited to participate in a community sculpture using recycled materials inspired by participating artist Rodney Rodrigo.

On Saturday, visit the Botanical Printers and learn how to make gift cards using natural materials from the Garden. On Sunday, create an origami flower with Nicole. Both activites are in Lawn House Garden.

Enjoy Organic food by The Flavor Chef in the Lawn House Garden. 

Music provided by Bob Ballentine & Friends (Saturday & Sunday) in Australian Garden and Willowood (Sunday 11-2) in the Lawn Garden Gazebo.

Cost: Free with admission or membership
