The Minnesota Landscape Arboretum welcomes Chanhassen residents to the annual Chanhassen/Carver County Day at the Arboretum.  Chanhassen residents receive free gate admission, which includes the summer sculpture exhibit 'Origami in the Garden', plus a guided walk of the gardens at 11am and 1pm.  A gallery show, Inside Out, accompanies the exhibition and is in the Reedy Gallery in the Visitor's Center.  The Arboretum grounds are open 8am - 8pm. 

Bagels, coffee, water, and juice will be served at 9:45am, followed by a brief program from city, county and Arboretum officials at 10am in the Visitors Center.

Activities for children include Storytime at 11am plus coloring stations including a special Arboretum coloring book to take home.  Visitors can also experience the beauty of the gardens in full bloom, the Learning Center and its Green Play Yard (for children 5 and under).  Kids can paint with water, go in playhouses and have lots of fun!
