Franklin Park Conservatory has a night of family fun this evening from 6pm - 9pm on December 7, 2011.
The Conservatory has been transformed into a winter wonderland with seasonal decor and twinkling lights both indoors and outside, including a display of over 1300 poinsettias of 50 different varieties, a 15-foot poinsettia tree, and over 60 evergreen trees.
Best of all is the Conservatory's exhibitions of lush plants in Himalayan Mountains, Tropical Rain Forest, Desert, and Pacific Islands; and best of the best is the breathtaking Chihuly Collection of Glass Artwork.
It is interesting to read the history of Chihuly exhibitions at the Conservatory. I Feel lucky and blessed by the Friends of Conservatory, who in 2004 purchased most of the Dale Chihuly pieces included in the 2003 exhibition as a permanent collection for Franklin Park Conservatory. It is the largest collection owned by a conservatory or botanical garden.
