Savor the change of seasons at Monk Botanical Gardens with an autumnal stroll bursting with treats to delight your senses! This new event, Gardens at Twilight, will feature paths with gentle lighting and cozy stops offering treats, drinks, and activities (hot chocolate, apple cider, smores, and more included with your ticket!) The Center for the Visual Arts will be on-site providing children’s activities. Continue the fun with face painting (additional cost paid directly to the artist.)

You and your guests will set your own pace as you travel through this celebration of the Gardens and harvest season. Make sure to also stop at Scarecrows on Parade to see the special creations of community members this year and vote for your favorite scarecrow. Whether you are looking for a solo adventure focused on the Gardens or a family looking for an outdoor excursion, you’ll experience a memorable night. Get your tickets soon as this one-night sensation is sure to sell out fast!

Tips: Be sure to dress for the weather as the whole experience is outdoors. Bring additional cash or a card for purchasing alcoholic drinks and light-up accessories, as well as an extra flashlight if you would like to expand your walk to some of the darker, unlit trails in the Gardens. In case of inclement weather, ticket holders will receive an email informing them of moving the event to the rain date. Ticket sales are final and no refunds will be available. Dogs are not allowed at this event but are welcome during Mondays @ Monk, which will feature Gardens at Twilight (lights only) in October.

Ticket Price: $10 per person, kids 2 years old and younger are free

This event does not have a member discount. No refunds.
