With the opening of the new Asian Highlands exhibit at Omaha’s Henry Doorly Zoo & Aquarium and ongoing construction on I-80 and parts of 13th Street, we expect traffic to be extremely heavy this weekend. Please plan for extra time in getting to the garden this Memorial Day weekend or look for alternate routes in advance (like going through downtown to 10th Street to Bancroft), to bypass congested areas. We are looking forward to seeing you in the garden this weekend! Open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday and 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Monday.

Through amazing creations- inspired by nature and built from reclaimed materials, artist Sayaka Ganz will change the way you see art, plastics and our environment.

Get your morning exercise with a refreshing and rejuvenating walk through the garden.

Courses at the garden cover a wide variety of topics. From designing centerpieces, to making your own wreaths, or gaining valuable gardening techniques, there’s something for everyone.
