Inspired by this year’s History Center Exhibit titled From Architecture to Beauty, The Dawes Arboretum will be hosting a four-part virtual series featuring Ohio historic landscapes and gardens, their designers, American landscape movements and historic land restorations. In addition to The Dawes Arboretum, this series will feature presentations from Stan Hywet Hall & Gardens, Adena Mansion & Gardens, and Kingwood Center Gardens. This series will occur once per month from August through November and is free of charge, but registration is required. Once you register for one program, you will automatically be registered for all programs in the series.

For the first installment of this series, Senior Coordinator of Horticulture Education and Community Impact at The Dawes Arboretum, Peter Lowe will be discussing the history of Dawes’ landscapes and how they have evolved throughout the years.

This event series was funded in part by an Ohio Humanities Spark Grant.
