Twilight in the Garden: A Benefit for Bartram’s Garden

October 4 @ 5:30 pm - 9:30 pm

Twilight in the Garden is the annual gala to benefit Bartram’s Garden and the year’s largest fundraiser. Join us to celebrate this beloved public space and ensure its continued growth.

Guests will enjoy a festive night of great company, an unparalleled setting, and deep gratitude as we gather in honor of this legendary landscape, including:

  • A magical choose-your-own adventure evening, with options for everything from sunset garden tours to cozy riverfront fire pits
  • Silent auction featuring travel, artwork, private experiences, and more!
  • Autumnal cocktails and seasonal treats

This year, we’re recognizing the healing effects of our natural world and celebrating three incredible proponents of public green spaces:

2024 Twilight in the Garden Honorees

  • Nancy A. Goldenberg, Hon. ASLA President & CEO of Laurel Hill and co-chair of Pennsylvania Public Horticulture Coalition.

Join us in recognizing their outstanding contributions and commitment to our community at this year’s Twilight in the Garden. Their dedication exemplifies the spirit of partnership and service that strengthens our neighborhoods and enriches the lives of all Philadelphians.
