Join us September 29, from 4-7pm, for Autumn in the Garden: an immersive, sensory experience with music curated by dublab. Arlington Garden blooms with sound as Fabiano do Nascimento, Mia Doi Todd, SK Kakraba, Carlos Niño & Aaron Shaw (Black Nile), and Dexter Story perform live and dublab DJs Gabrielle, Mark Maxwell, and Frosty soundtrack the native foliage. Plus hear the plants sing as Data Garden activate their interactive MIDI Sprout listening station. Join us in supporting the Arlington Garden, a free, climate-appropriate habitat garden in Pasadena.

There will be a special VIP reception from 3 to 4pm to celebrate the garden’s designation as California Nonprofit of the Year and to formally dedicate the garden’s newly completed fountain. Designed by local artist Cha-Rie Tang of Pasadena Craftsman Tile, the custom Batchelder tile fountain will be dedicated during the reception in honor of Betty and Charles McKenney, who founded Arlington nearly 15 years ago.

The event is sponsored by Wells Fargo Private Bank, with additional Sponsorship support from Steve Madison, The John DeWitt family, Kim Jacobsen, Nancy McIntyre and The Agency: Rita Whitney and Gus Ruelas. Patina Catering has donated the food for the evening, Domaine de Cala is providing wine and beer has been donated by Craftsman Brewing.

Floral designers from Jacob Maarse will create arrangements and centerpieces incorporating the flora and fauna from Arlington Garden which will be raffled at the conclusion of the event to benefit the garden. Each purchased ticket includes valet parking. Lyft and Uber are encouraged since we are in a residential neighborhood.
