Wave Hill Weekly Events (Oct 29 – Nov 4) | Enter the Enchanted World of the Gardens

 

The moon hangs above the city in the night sky, glowing above the gardens while silhouettes of petals dance in the gentle winds from the river and long limbs cut across paths. Although there are many marvels to see in the daylight of Wave Hill, there is magic to find in these enchanted evenings. Join us in a Wave Hill-O-Ween celebration and discover the hidden wonders of our world just beyond where we think to look.
