UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Dinner and dancing will highlight a Gala in the Gardens event from 5:30 to 10 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 20, to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the opening of The Arboretum at Penn State’s H.O. Smith Botanic Gardens.
All festivities will take place in the gardens, which are located at the corner of Bigler Road and Park Avenue on the University Park campus.
The inspiration for this event, according to Kim Steiner, director of the arboretum, is a desire to celebrate the generosity of the donors, volunteers and supporters who have helped make The Arboretum at Penn State a landmark and a regional destination for more than 150,000 visitors annually.
