Join us for an exclusive evening of art, fall beauty, and sunset views.
Your evening will begin with a walk-through Skeleton Grove, where select artists will be present to share insights on their creative processes. After exploring the grove, the group will continue to the Emergent Tower to enjoy sweeping views of the Arboretum landscape as the sun sets.
Friday, October 30, 5:15-7:15pm
$15 per member adult, $9 per member child, $25 per nonmember adult, $19 per nonmember child
This is an active outdoor program that includes trail walking, climbing the Emergent Tower, and returning after sunset in low-light conditions. Please come dressed for the weather and wear sturdy, comfortable shoes.
Before You Register
Participants should be comfortable walking approximately 1.5 miles, climbing 202 steps, standing 120 feet above the ground, and returning to the Corning Visitor Center during twilight or low-light conditions. Flashlights with red lenses are recommended for the return walk to improve visibility while helping preserve night vision.
