Description
Open Hours are 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Visit the garden on weekdays, Wednesday through Friday, for a quiet break from your busy schedule. Bring a picnic and have some quality time with a friend. Or just stroll around the ponds, sit quietly for awhile listening to the sounds of the waterfalls, feed the fish. The Niko-an teahouse is always open for visitors to enjoy and you may often see people reading or meditating there.
Poets on Site
Thursdays, 1:30 to 3:30
You are invited to join, or simply stop by and listen to Poets on Site, a group led by poet, Kath Abela Wilson, which gathers every Thursday afternoon to find inspiration in the garden and read poems they have written there. They are usually accompanied by the gentle music of flutes from around the world, collected and played by Rick Wilson. It is a unique experience to stroll around the garden and then hear poetry drawn from a similar experience of the surroundings. Participation and enjoyment is free with garden admission.
