Tohono Chul Park

Do you know your ABC’s? To celebrate 25 years of memories and accomplishments, the Park is presenting the exhibit Tohono Chul Park A-to-Z, a visual compendium that touches upon some of the people, places and things that make the Park so special.

Tohono Chul Park A to Z
Through October 3 in the Exhibit Hall – 9am to 5pm daily

Mark your calendar and plan to attend Tohono Chul’s fall Desert Corner Plant Sale this year; introducing the Atascosa Rock PIxie (Elytraria imbricata) into cultivation,

People often come to the Park and express their wish to grow a garden, but they live in an apartment with only a balcony or in a townhouse with a tiny backyard. We gotcha covered! For years the Park has been looking for beautiful plants for small spaces. The Atascosa Rock Pixie is the first in a series of these plants, none of which will exceed a foot in size.

Members preview | Wed., October 6, 3-6pm
Public sale | Sat., Oct. 9, 9am to 5pm + Sun., Oct. 10, 10am to 4pm

Who Do You Think We Are?
As part of Tohono Chul Park’s 25th anniversary, we are saluting our talented and hard-working Park staff while giving visitors the opportunity to get to know them a little better. It may not be surprising that some have a passion for animals while others tend their home gardens with the same zest and vigor they bring to Tohono Chul’s grounds, and many of the staff members have additional hidden talents. Some are gifted artists, quilters, woodworkers, photographers, writers, and poets while others have athletic talents and unique hobbies.

July 29 – September 14, 2010

Reptile Ramble starts back up on August 13 at 10AM in the Overlook. In this program, which will fascinate adults and children alike, presenters unveil captive reptiles, mostly snakes, inviting the brave in each crowd an opportunity to touch. The presentation teaches the essentials in understanding reptiles — how do they move?; how do they eat?; where do they live? Reptile skeletons, skulls, and sheds will also be available for viewing and touching.

Recognized as one of the great botanical gardens of the world, Tohono Chul Park has been connecting Nature, Art & Culture for 25 years!
