ADULTS

CONNECT WITH NATURE

Every adult can find a reason to visit the Botanical Center. Bask in the warmth of our tropical Sun Garden during all four seasons and find solitude as an escape from daily life.
 
Take a walk with friends and family through the gardens and then wander through our gift shop filled with an assortment of garden-related gifts. The Center offers many quiet spots to meditate or simply rest your mind and body.

Our changing art galleries showcase the works of regional artists and changes every two months. Displayed artwork is for sale and can be purchased at Guest Services at the gift shop..

A collection of outdoor sculpture enhances the beauty of the gardens and can be found throughout the grounds as you explore.

Find inspiration for your home garden strolling through our gardens and reading the plant labels to gain a better understanding about plants that will thrive in Midwestern growing zones. Expand your plant knowledge or simply enjoying learning something new during your next visit.

The Botanical Center is the ideal place to practice your shutter settings or experiment with light as you photograph plants, insects and birds within our gardens. We welcome hobby photographers who wish to take photos in our gardens for personal use.

Pick up the Mindfulness and Grounding brochure or the Around the World in 7 Spices tour at the admissions desk for a self-guided tour experience to connect to the gardens in a new way.
