Wave Hill Weekly Events (Oct 22 – Oct 29) | Engage with the World Around!

 

Although autumn has taken its time, the elegance of the season is alive. Flowers and fruit complement the foliage with jewel tones sprinkled in different corners, putting their best show across the garden. From dahlias in the Flower Garden to the Feathery Bluestar whose delicate texture softens the scenery by the Perkins Visitor Center. Find your space at Wave Hill as different colors and textures come together to create the landscape we know and love.
