Title

Request to amend the closings of Olbrich Botanical Gardens for GLEAM, Art in a New Light, that were approved at the April 13, 2016 Board of Park Commissioners meeting.

 

 

Body

Amendments Requested:

1.   Olbrich Botanical Society requests permission to close the Gardens at 6 pm on these additional Tuesday evenings; September 13, 20, 27 and October 4 for educational programming focused around GLEAM. This education programming was finalized after the initial request was submitted.

 

The exhibition hours were altered to begin earlier in the month of October to adjust to the earlier sunset times and the cooler temperatures for a better visitor experience.

 

2.  Olbrich Botanical Society requests permission to close the Gardens one hour early - closing 5 p.m. versus 6 p.m. to prepare for evening viewing of the exhibition where admission is applied.
