Spring is busting out all over the Lurie Garden
Monday, April 6th, 2009Looking for something fun to do this spring/summer in Chicago without breaking the bank? Chicago Sun-Times published an article on Apr. 1, 2009 highlighting Chicagoland events that don’t cost too much. Misha Davenport featured The Lurie Garden as the second item in the article “Bowling for dollars, and walking and viewing and zooming and eating and laughing and listening.” She said if you want to get in touch with nature, “Spring should soon be busting out all over Millennium Park’s Lurie Garden. The urban oasis takes the city’s Latin motto Urbs in Horto (City in a Garden) seriously. Highlights of the five-acre-garden include the 15-foot-high hedge that protects the perennial garden from the wind. Free guided garden walks are offered beginning May 10, or you can pack a lunch and take it on your own.”
Not only can you get in touch with nature or give that tree a hug this summer, you can do it for free at The Lurie Garden.
You can also see the first bulbs of the spring, taped on sight at The Lurie Garden by ABC 7 News Chicago, here.
