Celebrate the Year of the Rooster. Join us for a day of music, art and crafts from Japan, China and Korea. Learn to make Chinese paper lanterns; create Korean traditional paintings and tapestries; and see how ikebana is created using time-honored principles of Japanese flower arranging, all while listening to the uplifting melodies by the Koto and Harp Duo.

Bring your children and pick up one of our new Family Fun Guides or participate in a Treasure Hunt. Both were created by our clever docents to make exploring the garden even more fun for families.
