Lotusland Celebrates: Botanical Splendor
Lotusland Celebrates is West Coast’s most anticipated garden gala and the Lotusland’s largest fundraising event of the year. As a nonprofit public garden, Lotusland depends entirely on private support to sustain the daily care of its landscapes, living collections, historic features, and vital programming that strengthens our connection to nature. At a moment when the role of botanical gardens has become increasingly vital in the face of climate change and biodiversity loss, Lotusland Celebrates plays a critical role in supporting the work that must happen every day to keep the Garden thriving and accessible.
Lotusland Celebrates is led by Honorary Chair Wendy Schmidt and co-chaired by Jeanne Anderson and Julie Morley. The evening’s Presenting Sponsor is the Nora McNeely Hurley Foundation.
Tables and ticket opportunities are currently open to Lotusland Members only. Not a Member yet? Join today!
