Holiday Evening Hours at the Garden (On-site Drop-in Event)

Friends of the U.S. Botanic Garden
Join us for extended evening hours this holiday season at the U.S. Botanic Garden! On these seven evenings, the Conservatory will stay open until 8 p.m. for visitors to enjoy live music while exploring “Season’s Greenings: Dino-Mite!“ From 5-8 p.m., enjoy live music by Luck Penny as you explore the Conservatory. From driving jigs and reels to soulful airs, Luck Penny brings fantastic Celtic music with fiddle, flute, whistles, pipes, and guitar.

In partnership with the Friends of the U.S. Botanic Garden, local vendor Vintage Views will offer hot chocolate, botanical non-alcoholic mocktails, and snacks for purchase. Additionally, local baked goods pastry chef Lillian Natalie Cake will have botanical cookies, cakes, pies, and other assorted pastries decorated with edible flowers available for purchase.

This event is offered in collaboration with the Friends of the U.S. Botanic Garden. If you're interested in supporting educational programs through a donation to the Friends of the U.S. Botanic Garden, click here.
