Select Fridays, February through May

The Garden’s Friday After 5 after-hours series returns this season with new, exciting themes each month!

February 2: An Evening of the Arts

Enjoy an evening filled with live music and two new exhibitions as you stroll the Garden after hours! Catch the Naples Philharmonic Youth Jazz Orchestra and selected arias from Madama Butterfly performed by the Opera Naples Resident Artists on the Performance Lawn. Fogg Café will be open with a full menu and a themed specialty cocktail will be available for purchase.

Also on February 2, we celebrate the opening of Endlessly Wild: New Work by Sara Abalan, a new spotlight exhibition in Fogg Café. At 5:30pm, join Abalan on an informal sunset stroll to experience firsthand how she gathered inspiration for the exhibition. A Meet & Greet with the artist will follow from 6:30 – 8pm. And don’t miss Musical Swings, the Garden’s new, interactive exhibition in the Kapnick Caribbean Garden.

Friday After 5 is included with Garden admission. No RSVP required.

Special thanks to Artis—Naples and Opera Naples.
