Yesterday, Greensboro Beautiful and the City of Greensboro sponsored Art in the Arboretum. Visual and performing artists filled the Arboretum with their art and and performances. There were about 50 artists at the event. The weather was perfect was very well attended. The Arboretum is a place to visit every season as plantings change and there is almost always something in bloom. Art in the Arboretum was family friendly, and definitely dog friendly.
Greensboro Beautiful was incorporated in 1968. Their mission is to conserve and enhance the beauty and ecology of the community. It is a non-profit, volunteer organization that has been collaborating with the City of Greensboro for 56 years. We will cover another Greensboro Beautiful event in November. On November 2nd, Greensboro Beautiful will plant 150 trees on the campus of Bennett College for the 150 anniversary of the college. It is hard to believe that the 55-acre campus can support 150 new trees. At the Art in the Arboretum, Christina Larson, Board Chair of Greensboro Beautiful, told us the arborist actually found space for more than 200 trees, so 150 won't be an issue. This will be another fine example of the good work done for the community.
Happy Tuesday!
