he Holden Arboretum is a place of respite — to walk, gather, heal and enjoy the wonder of and benefits of time spent in nature. It is in this spirit that we look forward to our annual event, Twilight in the A-Mazing Woods. This family-friendly experience is one of our most important fundraisers in support of our mission, including top-notch horticulture, education programs and botanical research.

Murch Canopy Walk and Kalberer Family Emergent Tower, Stickwork, exclusive access to the Arboretum for this event, and a picnic by SPICE catering.
