Plants are great, but it's the people that make our garden special.
“Move like a great river; be still like a mountain” instructs the age-old description of the meditative exercise and movement art of T’ai Chi Ch’uan. This class offers standing movements and seated practices rooted within the Chinese tradition of Tai Chi and Chi Kung for the enrichment of body, mind and spirit. All physical abilities welcome, including those in need of chair-based practice.
Ever wonder what it takes to transform the Atrium into a beautiful blooming paradise for Olbrich’s Holiday Express Show? Come and enjoy the chaos before the show! Join Olbrich staff for an interesting sneak preview before the show is completely finished. Assistant conservatory curator Amanda Dix will walk you through our new production greenhouses as she gives a behind-the-scenes look at how the plants are cared for prior to the show. Horticulturist Katey Pratt will share the overall design concept and ideas behind specific scenes, explain the building process, and point out unique details along the way. You may even get to help create a small element of the show!
