Press release from Parks and Recreation:
Botanical Conservatory Open Christmas Eve
How do you entertain visiting friends and family during the holidays? Take them to the Botanical Conservatory to get out of the cold air and into the warm, festive gardens. The Conservatory will be open until 8 pm Christmas Eve. And on December 26, from 10 am – 5 pm, admission is only $1.
Starting Saturday, December 19, Three Faces of St. Paul’s, will be an added feature to the Downtown Landmarks showcase. St. Paul’s Evangelical Lutheran is a well-known downtown landmark in this “City of Churches”. As the congregation approaches its 175th anniversary, the Conservatory joins the celebration by telling this remarkable story of genesis, destruction, rebuilding, and a very special Christmas through a set of detailed models and the history they record. Regular Conservatory admission fees apply.
The Botanical Conservatory is located downtown at 1100 S. Calhoun Street. For more information, call 427-6440 or visit www.botanicalconservatory.org.
