Pollinator Week Events

This year’s Garden theme, Natural Attractions, celebrates the plant-pollinator love story through the lens of Brooklyn Botanic Garden’s vast and varied collections and the native insects to which they are inextricably linked. Join us as we wrap up Pollinator Week with fun family-friendly programming including children’s activities in the Discovery Garden, chalk drawing with Chalk Art NYC, and tours led by BBG gardener Will Lenihan and Garden Guide volunteers.

Be sure to buzz around the Garden and check out site-specific installations like the Pollinator Lounge at Oak Circle and the exhibits in the Discovery Garden and the exhibit in the Conservatory Gallery.

All programs free with Garden admission.
